[QUOTE="jgsugden, post: 9633550, member: 2629"] My primary world has a surface area 12 times the size of Earth. It also has a Dyson Sphere-like Underdark surface nearly as big. Beyond that world, I have a heavy humanoid presence in the Elemental, Astral, Fey and Shadow realms. The majority of species came about when the Gods realizes that free will worship granted them power and the Gods created beings to give them free will so that the humanoids would worship them... which only kind of worked out ... One of the primary reasons I went with that design was to facilitate the idea that [I]any[/I] PC design will have a place. Do you want a LotR Elf/Dwarf/Human/Halfling style PC? I have a 'core fantasy' style nation. Do you want a human that uses modern technology (semi-automatic weapons, cell phones, internet)? I have another world where those PCs exist (although the world is covered by anti-magic and is thus hard to reach). Do you like a little apocalypse in your fantasy? I have a plethora of styles in my Underdark. What races/species populate my setting? All of them. I may not have discovered all of them yet, but if someone wants to play an archetype, I will find where they are hiding from me. Do I mix things up? Absolutely. When you have that much to fill, you get to experiment a lot and I've been building, rebuilding, and exploring this setting for nearly 45 years now. [/QUOTE]
