For an apocalyptic Dragonlance, the 5th Age (with the mega-dragons terraforming Ansalon) already provides a good framework.The challenge with using Dragonlance as the Green Age is the fundamental incompatibility in their lore:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Magic Source: Dragonlance is tied to the moons; Athas is tied to plant life.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Divinity: Dragonlance has direct, interventionist gods; Athas has elemental temples and absent gods.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Psionics: Psionics are core to Athas but are largely absent in Dragonlance.</li> </ul>For me, the best thing about Athas was always its isolation from the D&D metaverse and its freedom from standard tropes (even if that's not canonical for all editions, it is for my table)."The-Green-Age-is-another-D&D-setting" hook is cool, though. I've always thought Greyhawk would be a better fit than Dragonlance or Forgotten Realms if you had to pick one.</blockquote>
