You should get over to The Piazza and light a fire under any of the Pelinore related threads. (You forum sig might bring a few people back over here. :twisted: )
Rafael Wrote:Greyhawk was too much locked in the dungeon for my taste, and, with all the respect, when I say "Greyhawk", I mean, Mr Gygax' original creations, not what he included from other authors.
The Lendore Isles, for example, I don't really count as Greyhawk. :oops:
I think that the entire "raiding other settings" concept causes a lot of problems. I wonder what Blackmoor would be like, without the connection to Mystara. I wonder what Kara-Tur would be like, if it wasn't stolen from Greyhawk and moved to Forgotten Realms.
But, these things were done. So it has created a Greyhawk that has been messed about with a lot. I'm not sure if Greyhawk has been messed up as much as Blackmoor, but there is a lot of "disputed canon". I personally favour tagging all the canon (so that people can see what type of canon it is) and then letting individual GMs decice which types of canon they want to include in their games.
And from the point of view of Blackmoor, I would really love to see an "alternate Blackmoor" written to drop into the Greyhawk world.
