This website


users.erols.com/mwhite28/medvam/index.ht...


is the basis for my Co-op project. At AlternateHistory.com, their is a project called the Medieval Americas Co-op project, where they are trying to update the information in the above website to create a more realistic alternate America, basically after some cateclism not specified, the United States' technology declines to medieval levels, S.M. Stirling recently wrote a book called Dies the Fire where modern technology suddenly stopped working and societies had to adapt. The author of the above website offers his ideas on what a Medieval America would be like. What I would like to do with a group of people is to have our own co-op project and modify the above setting to make it specifically into a D&D setting, that is have the societies discussed in the above website, but alter them enough so it could be used in a standard D&D setting. For example the above is strictly a medieval setting, no magic, no monsters, just strictly swords and arrows and armor, but how would we have to change this to add in the monsters and races, and magic with D&D character classes? I would like to hear people's opinions on this so we can discuss them.

Well, if we're given a couple generations, some Eaters could've denegrated into something similar to an orc: stronger and tougher than most humans, with a better immune system and less intellect.

Baron James Jacobs has his Bailiffs testing children for their intelligence - the smart ones get shipped to the Citadel where they get educated and put to work rebuilding 'the Capital'. Amongst these objects of priority are books. Village populations found in posession of books are thorughly interrogated as to the source of those books.
