I'm very much interested, GoT has been disappointing me recently so I'd be happy to play low fantasy right. [hider=Questions/Answers] 1) Should the land be like our own? I'd say so, though obviously with a few fantastical touches, in the vein of the Wall, The Godswoods and Ashai-By-The-Shadow. 2) Should there be creatures like; giants, dwarves, centaurs, dragons, etc? Again, I would borrow from aSoIaF and have there be a few of these creatures but have them be firmly on the decline, if not almost entirely gone. Man may have outbred them or perhaps some natural disaster? 3) Should there be magic in general? Not too much. 1) Is that something people would want? Yup, take a few ideas but keep this separate. 1) Is 5 too many? No, if anything I'd say we could have a few more. 2) Would it be better to have everyone from 1 location? No, complex is good! 1) Is 12 too many? Well... If there's going to be five locations, I'd say three lines in each place. 2) Would it be better to have everyone from the same family? Nope, more families means more intrigue.[/hider]
