Nevenall Posted August 11, 2004 Report Share Posted August 11, 2004 There are the topics I plan to cover for each race in my fantasy campaign(Eventually). Anything missing? Anything unneccessary? Thank you in advance. Introduction To contain some prose to place the race in the world as a whole, or some other attempt to capture the flavor of the race. Appearance About the general appearance of members of the race and perhaps modes of dress common to all, if any. How easy it is for individuals to pass for human and vice versa. Maybe a height/weight table. Demeanor A section to describe the prevalent philosophies and attitudes of the race and how they are perceived by others. Also, perhaps, information about relations with other races, specifically enemies or allies. Culture A big section which I might want to break down further. This describes how the race lives, including their religion, art, politics, literature, life ways, and technology. Basically hard and soft culture. Then discussion of various sub-cultures and special groups and castes within the race. Also includes cultural packages. Magic What kind of magics the race practices and various other related information. History A section about the history the race tells about itself as well as connections with global history. Information about key people and events. Heroes, conquests, and interactions with other races. This section will in some ways reference and support the demeanor section. Campaign Possibilities Various information and suggestions about how to use this race in your campaign. Character Possibilities Suggestions, story hooks, backgrounds, and other information about creating and playing a character of this race.

Put one of the unique species of your setting into it, and see how it looks. From there adjust to taste, and show us the entry so we can see what we're missing if anything.
