RPGs in D20 Modern background

[Ruland]

Haven't yet read Urban Arcana completely, but how are player characters going to react to the fact that everything is true that they have learned from their own D&D games?
Are the game world versions of Mr. Gygax and Mr. Arneson shadowkind (no offense intended!), or are they characters with a lot of ranks in Knowledge arcane lore?
And what about D20 Modern characters playing D20 Modern in their leisure time? Nice idea, huh?

Well, if they're playing modern PCs, then try to keep in mind what an average modern-day person would attempt to describe these shadowkind creatures, assuming said person is not a D&D gamer geek.

It's the same when you're trying to describe D&D PCs what is a car. Even if they have opened their eyes to the Shadow, sometimes upon initial observation you cannot discern what is real or shadowkind.
