[QUOTE="Gellion, post: 1094116, member: 12330"] With the increasing popularity of Steampunk. I thought this would be an interesting issue to adress. In some fantasy worlds i have seen, there is always the lone inventor who lives by His/Herself, and makes technilogical items waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond the technilogical level of the world. Most of these items are of a Sci-Fi level of technology, and would normally seem out of place, but somehow they do not. The reason this technology does not spread is because it is either in a nation where they are loathe to give away their secrets. Or is made by a lone inventor, who everybody is afraid of. So do you like the idea of very high levels of technology in a fantasy world, if they are used with some of the above ideas? I know a lot of people here have to have an explaination for everything, so is it a feasible idea? And if anybody here is wondering, i just sort of have a habit of making up different fantasy worlds in my head. Which is the reaon i post a lot of topics having to do with fantasy settings. I also like the idea of more advanced thecnology in a fantasy setting, which is why you will also see a lot of posts like this by me. [/QUOTE]
