This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Easy20/Other20: Setting

I've started writing my setting. My main inspiration for the scope is the Gord the Rogue Greyhawk novels and the awe of a complex, multi-planer reality, where other planes are truly alien and not just adventuring locations.

OTOH, I despise the concept of "True Neutral" as "We have to have evil, because somehow people being slaughtered is necessary", so none of that.

I've just started today, so the scope is limited and there will be many changes. Nevertheless, the basics are probably there.

Comments and criticisms?
The main problem with government is the difficulty of pressing charges against its directors.

Given a choice of two out of three M&Ms, the human brain subconsciously tries to justify the two M&Ms chosen as being superior to the M&M not chosen.

I've expanded the setting (Planes, factions, Principles, Elementals) significantly, so I've uploaded an update.
