I tend not to go down the rabbit hole of creating all new mechanics. I have created species and prestige/subclasses for my settings and items, classes, subclasses, prestige classes for players but never wholesale game altering mechanics. My next campaign will center around undead. The majority of the lands will be ruled by the noble dead with only enclaves of free beings remaining, protected by divine beacons that prevent low level from entering and severely weaken upper level undead in their sphere of effect. Outside the spheres, undead gain strength and HD. Living beings still live and work in the dead zones but are a constant source of prey for the undead. The Gods barely retain enough strength to maintain the beacons. It is loosely based on the old Vampire Earth novels. I am still writing the overall concepts but I am intrigued on how it will play out and my group want to try it.</blockquote>
