Robin hood,Ivanhoe, Charlemagn, Arthurian myth, the norman invasion of england, the 100 years war, the crussades, Three Musketeers France, The Count of Monte Christo,Beowulf, Sigurd the volsung, Norse and Greek mytholgy  where any numnber of our demihuman races and many of our monsters have their origins. Granted i would not stop at Europe i would include Russia, Japan, Mongolia, China,South east asia (These would be your best bet for dragon kin), India and the middle and near east.  All of them have donated so much that is far more phantasitical  than warforged or psionics...I got off topic a little this was supposed to be about world builders. My world is heavily influenced by my players we colaberated on the names of Cities , Designing the gods, Governments and even cities While i do the lions share of the cartography when i hit a brick wall story wise i ask my player to write down, rumors, myths and legends the world at large belongs tom all fo us if someone want to introduce soemthing new we have seven continents and an eigth shattered continent to which to work with we all agree toi amend house rules as nessacary and i only have a few hard fast rules. when multi classing there are no No Ca, no multiclasses are allowed with Warlock Period. Sorcerer is to be chosen at start only and may not multi class with wizard or bard. beyond that I ask my players to write up good background stories and considiering the campaign is started with the rules cyclopedia and migrated through 1st,2nd Pathfinder and now into 5th ed over the last 5 years i think i must be something right (no i am not popular and my players ne of which is my wife sometimes down right hate me). As to time spent working on my game i have to agree i spend a 100 times more time on it than my players do even with the stuff they supply mapping takes a quite a bit of time. Followed by NPC, encounter design, integrating character backstory and goals. World Building takes time, energy and patience. </blockquote>
