[QUOTE="cbwjm, post: 7978238, member: 6788732"] For my world I have a mythic age which had elemental, giant, and dragons living on a world of elemental power and eventually going to war. They crafted their footsoldiers: genasi, giant-kin, and dragonborn to fight in this three way war. After an age of fighting, the gods arrived. They cast the elementals and their primordial rulers back to the elemental planes; banished their divine children, the titan rulers of the giants to a prison plane; and sent the elder dragons to sleep beneath the earth. It should be noted that the gods could be matched by the more powerful rulers, but the constant war weakened them allowing the gods to remove them. I don't use a set timeline, I just use roughly defined ages like Mythic Age, and Recent History. The gods live in the upper planes much like in 4e and are all served by angels no matter their alignment. They brought divine magic with them (though their titan children, still trapped are learning to tap into this power and grant it to their remaining followers, who knows what will happen next - I have literally no idea). I have my own pantheon which are, I think, 15 gods that are worshipped by the people of the world, each race or culture placing greater importance on some gods over others (the dragonborn have 5 gods of high importance, the rest are known collectively as the low gods, still revered but as a 2nd tier of gods). Gods don't need worship, though they have many worshippers, they just exist as they have always existed. The lower planes, known as the abyss, the hells, the pit are where all of the fiends exist, there is no separation between the various planes though more powerful fiends carve out their own fiefdom. Arkhosia exists as the remains of the dragonborn empire, it slowly dwindled and now is no larger than a small kingdom, they live with kobolds who are their dragon brothers and co-exist peacefully with lizardmen. Yuanti are the enemy and are slain when found lest their dark powers threaten the kingdom. Also phase spiders. They are native to the Feywild, they have a natural ability to shift between the prime and the feywild in places where the barriers between two planes are weakened. Basically I wanted a fey-enchanted woodland with teleporting spiders and phase spiders fit the bill. [/QUOTE]
