So, just some links to help spur imaginations and generate more and more ideas. http://www.20000-names.com/index.htm for names based for whatever civilization is based on (ie a greek-like civ) http://rinkworks.com/namegen/ a name generator for those hard-to-fit civs http://www.myths.com/pub/rpg/netbooks/html/cover.html dunno quite if this would fit with the M:tG system, but the Great Net Spellbook is always a good resource http://www.hut.fi/~vesanto/link.useful/MagicHtmls/magic.html helping to refine the magic system http://www.hut.fi/~vesanto/wcreate.pdf excellent world design ideas http://www.rydia.net/moonfairy/namepage.html more names! http://www.io.com/~sjohn/demog.htm VERY useful if you like to get things just 'right.' Isolated villages with five inns and every monster inbetween attacking is NOT realistic. http://www.io.com/~eighner/world_builder/world_builder_index.html questions to stimulate the mind http://hollylisle.com/fm/Articles/faqs8.html#3 questions answered by a pro http://www.hut.fi/~vesanto/link.useful/roleplay.html a links page http://www.hollylisle.com/fm/Workshops/character-workshop.html for making your characters for stories, short tales, novels, info quips, etc http://www.zompist.com/kit.html making your own languages (makes my mind go to knots, how about you?) http://www.rpgmud.com/WorldBuilding/Mythopoets/tmm.html Good gracious, lots of worldbuilding stuff here http://www.astrofantasy.com/fantasy_world/World_Creation/create_world_vision.htm excellent for the 'overall view' and stimulating new ideas through chaos! http://hiddenway.tripod.com/world/ more links... http://curriculum.calstatela.edu/courses/builders/ interesting, but I don't know how much is repeated here http://www.hut.fi/~vesanto/world.build.html gosh, links! http://www.specficworld.com/resources/world.html lots of links, oops, 'resources' http://www.dungeonmastersguild.com/world_campaign_building_main.htm for starting from the ground upwards http://www.hut.fi/~vesanto/link.useful/link.networld/networlds.html other worlds, gives inspirations http://www.hollylisle.com/fm/Articles/rules-for-better-fantasy.html strong words, may not be to everyone's liking. but useful.
