[QUOTE="DragonLancer, post: 5389135, member: 11868"] I'm one of those people. Middle Earth is exactly how I see a typical D&D world. Magic does exist and it can be powerful but not everyone has the ability to walk around casting spells. A village might have a cleric or druid who can help bless the crops and heal a minor injury, but the locals might go generations without seeing major magics. Monsters exist but they aren't everywhere. They dwell in the deep forests, far underground, in places where the common folk don't go...etc. No one is going to consider harvesting from giant honey bees, it's too dangerous and just how do you do it when the typical inhabitant of a hive (thousands of bees) is the size of your horse? Risks don't outweigh the benefits. Basically a D&D world doesn't have to be built upon the notion that magic and monsters are everywhere and part of the daily lives of everyone. [/QUOTE]
