Lots of discussion of D&D worlds in the D&D forum, but I'd like to open a thread to discuss other (mostly fantasy) settings that aren't (necessarily) tied to D&D. Feel free to mention any and all, but I'm primarily interested in relatively new ones that have come out over the last 5-10 years. I'm also very interested in settings that have significant coverage--that is, not just as a few pages in a big rules book.
First, some classics. My four favorite older settings are
Talislanta, Shadow World, Earthdawn and
Everway, the first three of which came out in the 80s, the latter in the 90s. Talislanta is the quintessential "exotic fantasy" setting; Shadow World was the default setting for Rolemaster; Earthdawn is the pre-history for Shadowrun, with a very "points-of-light" vibe. Everway is a bit forgotten, unfortunately. Designed by the ever-prolific Jonathan Tweet, WotC published it before it purchased TSR, and it was sort of the mystical cousin to Planescape.
Other good settings from Days of Yore include
Tekumel, Glorantha, Harn, Atlantis, Warhammer, Jorune (science-fantasy),
Titan,
Agone, Theah (7th Sea) etc, as well as licensed settings like
Hyborian Age, Melnibone, Middle-earth, Dying Earth, Corum, and others.
More recent settings that I've enjoyed are
Numenera (also science fantasy),
Symbaroum, Realms of Terrinoth, Ehdrigohr, Artesia, and
Aventuria.
Finally, I'd like to mention the
Beyonder game, which was the primary inspiration for this thread. It has a bit of a Talislanta vibe and seems very well conceived.
So what are some other (recent-ish) non-D&D fantasy settings I might have missed? I'm curious about
Forbidden Lands, which feels very old school, although I haven't investigated it too thoroughly.
