[QUOTE="Herobizkit, post: 5452939, member: 36150"] One thing I debated on trying with a campaign is completely "video game-y" but in the context, might make sense. Have your intrepid PCs be humans, explorers, and have them set sail for uncharted waters and such until they make landfall in your pseudo-China. Once (If?) they make peaceful contact and spend some time there, they can "unlock" a new "playable race/class". But first, have them play out a level or three in the non-magic side of things to get them used to not having magic. Once they're used to resting for HP, using traps, missile weapons etc. to deal with their enemies and what have you, THEN send them off to Shangri-La. THEN tell them, say, "you've spent xyz time in this magic-rich world and it's rubbed off you; you find a new power waiting to be tapped..." and now they can multi-class into a spell-casting class if they want. Or, if you're really, really generous, you can allow PC's to retire their characters and make new ones with the new race/class. [/QUOTE]
