[QUOTE="Psion, post: 424770, member: 172"] Wow... y'know what? I took a look at their [URL=http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/curtain.html]submission[/URL] . It doesn't resemble the "ice age world" that I considered submitting... but it does resemble my current game world... yeah the one that I would never consider submitting because it was "too lived in." :rolleyes: Frex: [i]A secret society of enigmatic shapeshifters, the elusive Black Circle works subtle treacheries and dark intrigues to corrupt the good and noble from within.[/i] In my campaign, they are called the Dark Circle. :) [i]Magic is the lifeblood of the world, the primal essence of creation that flows through all living things and wells in the bones of the earth. (...) Magic courses throughout the earth, but its flow is not without pattern. It eddies and pools, creating ancient places of power that channel and change the magic coursing through them. Some of these magical nexuses [/i] In my world, I call the primal magic force "the flow", which extends through all living things, and courses across the landscape in rivers (ley lines) which converge at "nexuses." Of course, I don't claim my ideas are totally original (and am not claiming they copied me -- I learned a long time ago a lot of the same ideas settle in a lot of fantasy worlds) -- I have my inspirations as I imagine the FFG folks do. But I still find it interesting how [i]familiar[/i] parts of it seem. And find it aggravating that I dismissed submitting my primary campaign world out-of-hand. [i]Sigh[/i]. [/QUOTE]
