[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5445389, member: 92511"] Soooo...it's "modern fantasy" how? Like these magical and psionic races and creatures are "roaming openly"...down 5th Ave., NYC? Sounds like a nice comic book superhero setting...but I don't see "modern fantasy" from this description. And define, please "superhero themes"...you mean, like, magical origin vs. bitten by a radioactive spider origin vs. wearing a super-techno suit origin? If you'd like original races to be superheroes...then...well, good luck actually. hahaha. I'm inclined to think it's all been done before. If you don't want elves or dwarves or gnomes...then...again, the "fantasy" part of the modern fantasy comes in where? If they're supposed to be superhero-ish...then sure there's any number of genetically enhanced/altered..."things" you can do to make a race. I'm reminded of Marvel's...what was it..Guardians of the Galaxy? Where each planet in our solar system had a genetically altered race (originally human) on it to cope with each planet's "inhuman" atmospheres/gravities/etc...Could go that route. As for an original fantasy race...I really don't know...I think it's all be done. Different names...maybe slightly different abilities...but the "type" of character/creature/culture/race...chances are someone somewhere has already done it. Have fun and happy genetic-experimenting. --Steel Dragons [/QUOTE]
