[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5199680, member: 19675"] Or you could take Tolkienesque fantasy conventions and turn them around a bit. 1) No ÜberBBEG & Empire of Darkness. 2) Elves, the first of the Fallen Fey have been in the world for longer than any other race, and it is their world. They are masters of magic, and that mastery has given various Elf-Kings powerful empires. 3) Dwarves are the Children of the World, and are often in conflict with the Elves. 4) Gnomes are Fey who have entered the world voluntarily, in order to protect others from the Elves. They, too, are masters in magic, but not in the same schools as the Elves. 5) Humans are at the bottom of the "totem pole"- newcomers to the world, they are enslaved by some Elves, looked down on by all; Dwarves see them as short-lived nuisances, and Gnomes see them as short-sighted. Their civilizations are largely stone age, except where insightful leaders have stolen or learned from the Elder Races (as they call everyone else). And so forth... [/QUOTE]
