Cosmology, the Planes and the Eldar Darks

The Nostrates (sing: Nos Familia)

The Scarletto

the mage aristocracy sounds like one of the most interesting parts of your world. I'd suggest developing this a little more--you have whetted our appetites, now feed us! What do they actually do? What kind of cities or nations do they rule? What conflicts emerge from all this?

The Nostrates and the Dakorian Potentate

[blockquote=Wrexham3]Thanks for your reply. I'm busy re-writing big chunks of my D&D thread at the moment and then posting it on the CBG. [/blockquote]
Welcome to our world of think, write, cut-n-paste...

Thuis kind of whacked me in the head.  Not becasue someone was claiming to be the son of a God, but this setting was not sounding very Hellenistic after reading the cosmology.  Especialiy after reading about the Elder Darks in the cosmology posting.Include them in your cosmology first, or in a worship post.

Do the Nostrate families traditionally 'lichen' their better wizards? You mention a Lich-cabal running stuff from the SHadows, but I felt this would be difficult to pull off for too long, until I realized that maybe this was more the modus-operendi for these families anyways.  It kind of makes sense in a mageocratic inter-family system.  Instead of losing their most powerful members and their wisdom and power when they expire, I guess it would make some sense to keep them around to run the families.

Hey Wrexham, good job consolidating some of the information.  I still really like your creation story, and the cosmology, and the dragons, but it's hard to get an idea of what the real world looks like (now).

Hi Rose of Montague and Lord Vreeg.

I just wanted to say I liked your background story about how the world used to be connected to ours, Wrexham. Very nice :)
