[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7977636, member: 6801845"] I always run in my own home campaign world. Since I've been doing that for a long time the amount of alternative lore is ... significant. But at a high level, the Norse gods are the primary movers and shakers of the world. I've also stolen non-human gods from other sources, primarily Greyhawk. I also throw in a bit of Celtic mythology with the Sidhe and Seelie and Unseelie court. So it's a mish-mash. The feywild is Alfheim, the shadowfell is Nifleheim (and all souls go through Nifleheim to get to their final destination). Moradin crafted most of the weapons the Aesir (Norse gods), Garl Glittergold wove Sif's hair, the elven gods were the Vaenir which explains why you have elven deities Frey and Freya living in Asgard. Giants, orcs, goblins originated from Jotunheim or were created from powerful Jotun who lived there. Jotunheim is not only the land of giants but also demons, devils and gods such as Gruumsh.
