[QUOTE="Mouseferatu, post: 1745622, member: 1288"] I've neither played nor run Wilderlands, but I'm playing in a long-running Dawnforge campaign. I think you're overestimating the impact of the added racial abilities. It's true that they increase the effective character level. It's also true that the book gives guidelines as to how much it changes them. You should have no problem challenging characters without killing them, any more than you can in a "normal" game, because the numbers are provided for you. And I think the world is fascinating. I love the "agest past" mythic feel to it. I've said before, there are very few campaign settings I'd be willing to run "out of the box." Dawnforge, however, is one of them. (Requisite disclaimer: I worked on the book, albeit only on a couple of chapters. I don't believe this invalidates my opinion, particularly since the campaign I've been playing in hasn't even involved either of the areas I wrote about. Still, I mention it for the sake of fairness.) [/QUOTE]
