[QUOTE="Jürgen Hubert, post: 3480579, member: 7177"] Well, in Urbis skin color is just another excuse for prejudice... After all, the setting [i]is[/i] modeled after 19th century Europe (though it lacks the large-scale colonial empires), and intolerance back then was even more prevalent than it is today. That's not to say that there's no prejudice against different [i]species[/i], however - quite the contrary: [b][i]“Trust not the gnome. Do not listen to his witty banter. What he lacks in stature he more than makes up in malice for humankind. Do not take his money, for then he will cast you into debt and force you to sell your own children into slavery...”[/i] - Anti-gnomish pamphlet, signed by “Veritas”[/b] I've made all sorts of prejudice common within the context of the setting - but at the same time, I've made it all a bit over the top so that no one (I hope) will confuse it with the real world.
