[QUOTE="Ramaster, post: 6278176, member: 6687585"] Consider something different. I've worked on this for some time a couple of months ago: Two planets, Alpha and Omega. They orbit each other (Binary System) and the nearby star. They also "share" a moon. The moon's orbit is in the shape of a number "8", with the planets located on the "holes" of the 8. Once every 3 months, the moon passes EXACTLY through the middle of both planets... and on this night... portal open on both worlds that connect them for a few hours. During this time, travel between them is possible, and so trade is made ands news exchanged. The portals are of varying sizes, some large enough to move a couple of trucks at the same time, others the size of a coin. Mayor cities are built around the big ones. Different races/cultures have adapted to this in strange ways. Elves on Alpha are all LG High Elves, but as soon as they cross to Omega, they become CE Drows. All Dwaven males live on Alpha, and all females on Omega (they had a big fight centuries ago). On the nights of The Crossing, they briefly meet to arrange marriages, trade, breed, etc... Gnomes on Alpha are obsessed with magic, while on Omega they crave technology. Half-lings live a peaceful shire-like lives on Alpha. On Omega, they have a shared Hive-Mind that makes them similar to MTG Kithkins on Shadowmoor. [/QUOTE]
