I want the races to have different/interesting outlooks on the world they live in. A good example of what I am talking about is what Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman do in all of their worlds- for example in Sovereign Stone the Dwarves are akin to Mongols (looking to conquer the entire world) and the Elves have a Japanese-like culture.I'm also looking to tie this in with certain racial abilities and exlpanation for why certain races have certain strengths and weaknesses (why do elves have resistance to sleep spells? why do dwarves mine?)Has anyone done anything like this in their world? I'm looking for some inspiration in this area and was wondering if others might have come up with some interesting and original ideas for their campaign worlds.Thanks,-mac1504</blockquote>
