[QUOTE="Plane Sailing, post: 425016, member: 114"] Interesting the parallel with Robert Kennan, another semifinalist [url]http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=27793[/url] Both are set in empires reaching their pinnacle, Dawn and Morningstar... I wonder whether the other 6 semi-finalists were in a similar vein or this is just random chance? [b]Dawnforge:[/b] It is a land where familiar and beloved races and archetypes are reaching the pinnacle of their glory and wonder. It is a vast and rich realm where newborn nations are still islands of civilization in a dark and unexplored wilderness sea. The world of DAWNFORGE is a land where the greatest deeds have yet to be done and epic heroes are wrought in the crucible of legend. [b]Morning Star:[/b] Now is the Golden Age: The great empires have not yet fallen. Humans have just come into their own, and dragons and mythical beasts abound. Wondrous and terrible magics, constructs, and creatures are being created everyday. Spellcasters push the limits of possibility further and further... Thraxis is a world still finding its destiny, where anything is possible. Over time the players will be able to see how the effects of their characters’ actions ripple outward. {edit} Also see Gary Pratt from Kansas (wizardoftheplains) in his thread here [url]http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=27785[/url] [b]The Sunset Kingdoms:[/b] Aspects that set the Sunset Kingdoms apart from other fantasy settings include -- A vibrant, eclectic mix of cultures that are near the height of their ‘golden age’... Hmmm. Another name which carries a daytime metaphore, another golden age setting... But is this a pattern amongst all 11 semi-finalists, or just those that didn't make it to the final? Time will tell! Congratulations to all of these guys for getting that far. What was it like to produce the 10-pager? Difficult to keep down to spec, or easy to provide the scope and details?
