[QUOTE="Dr. Strangemonkey, post: 1980193, member: 6533"] I put together a stone age setting for Arcana Unearthed but it wasn't so much cavemen as it was pre-Columbian. It's actually pretty interesting to contemplate what people could do with stone, bone, glass, and ceramic if they also have access to high magic. There were cultures within the setting who had become so good at manipulating heat and materials through magic that they could make very effective ceramic armor and glass weapons. There was a similar thing in that druid style life magic made it possible to use every part of a creature in very high powered ways. Yield from a creature became a very important thing. So that let's say you meet a bear. Everyone knows that bear bladders are good for healing. The fighter kills it, the ranger cuts out the proper organ, the druid 'identifies' its natural properties and that's how you get a heal potion. Thus loot can be found even in a place that has only known nature. I never got to run it, but I've always wanted to. [/QUOTE]
