[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 2126897, member: 4134"] Oriental: The old Oriental Adventures was Kara-Tur. The new one has the implied Campaign Setting of Rokugan (though it isn't necessary to play in rokugan, it's just the big example, not even using all races and classes). AFAIK, nothing is known about the Planet Rokugan is located on, or if it is a planet at all. The Emerald Empire (another name for Rokugan) is a very isolated realm. The direct neighbours are known, more or less, but nothing beyond that. It may be a planet, or a flat world, or something else. It just doesn't matter for the Campaign Setting. And AFAIK it doesn't connect with the other D&D worlds in any official way. Forgotten Realms: As we have heard, it's Abeir-Toril, or just Toril, with the main action going on on and around the continent of Faerûn. It's moon is called Selûne, and is the manifestation of the goddess Selûne, one of the two oldest deities of Realmspace. The planet itself is the manifestation of the goddess Chauntea. The Sun is simply a big pile of rock that has been inflamed by Selûne, using a connection to the elemental plane of fire. Though there was a sungod once, the Netherese deity Amaunator. There is a cult that claims that Lathander is the reincarnation of Amaunator, and that he soon will reach his zenith and claim his rightful place as the ruler of the gods. Lathander himself has neither denied nor confirmed that, but has dubbed said followers as legitimite Lathanderites, probably to keep them and "normal" Lathanderites from fighting over their divergent faith.
