[QUOTE="Musing Mage, post: 8616696, member: 7025552"] I ran a homebrew world for my 2nd Ed campaign that lasted close to 20 years, before wrapping that up and retiring from 2e. During that time, I was gifted the World of Greyhawk box set a buddy had found (completely intact!) at a garage sale, and I wanted to run it, so that's where I set my 1e campaign. But I also decided that it would be fun to set both on the same planet, so Faerun was only an ocean's journey away. I was running the players through the L series, set in their correct Lendore Isles locale. The team decided that they were finished with Lendore and set sail for Faerun, landed in Baldur's Gate, hired out as mercenaries, eventually landing in Cormyr which they've decided they like. So 4 years (real life time) and several turnovers later (both player and character) those groups are still in Cormyr. I say those because what was one group has grown and splintered into two. The irony here, of course, is that my desire to run Greyhawk was immediately sundered by my desire to let players have full agency! But I'm not complaining - getting use out of my Forgotten Realms Grey Box is equally satisfying - though I've now also splurged for the Cormyr sourcebook ... which likely means they'll pack up and go elsewhere just to mess with me. :ROFLMAO: [/QUOTE]
