[QUOTE="AllisterH, post: 5381341, member: 51325"] re: Graveyards and D&D now that I think about it...the reasons why graveyards existed in real life even moreso make the graveyard not make sense in D&D. In our world, the graveayard prevented the creation of the undead and this was born out by the fact that well, there WERE no undead risings (that we know of:D).. So of course, this "proves" to the ancient people that graveyard prevent undeads... Move this to a D&D world and you no longer have this correlation - Indeed...massive graveyards seem to have a higher chance of undead rising...thus the people of the D&D world would start to associate graveyards WITH the creation of undead. re: Wizards and Warriors The only genre I know where the mages are even close to the level of D&D mages would be certain manga/anime that are based on D&D. Slayers for example. In those cases, the warriors go BEYOND human and are blatantly superhumans which is accomplished by swordsmanship training (Gourry from the aforementioned Slayers is for example, moves so fast in battles that his sorceress companion actually loses track of where he is at times) [/QUOTE]
