It's nice to see a "classic" fantasy nrp sprout up after so long. This may just be what gets me out of this transient funk of mine. Consider me interested.

As for my vote on setting, while I love me some strangereal I think maps 2 or 3 would be my ideal and option B would certainly cut down on the endless biggering that seems to plague NRPs while still giving us magic stuff to play around with.
