I know that certain regions have often had a real life culture that they are analogous to. Tausans are similar to the Celts, the Eban are Amerindian/aboriginal in nature, the Ashuri are much like the Bedouin tribesmen, etc, etc...
Since I'm playing one, what was the inspiration for the Eldun, if any? Matt |

What a great discussion topic...
Was I correct in my long-standing assumption that Curi are modelled after Indian culture? Ciao, Greg |

Quote: Hmmm... I hadn't thought of it that way...but that's kind of close. Sarus and the Crown are modeled after the Romans. The Curi are kind of like ancient Roman/Greek mystics/seers. But there is no right or wrong here. Tis better to go off of what the rulebook description says and build from there than to overlay too much of the "real world" on to the game.  ED ~~

Gotcha.
I hadn't actually read about Sarus itself. But, from reading the Curi org details, I'd thought the most appropriate was modern Indian. I'd simply forgotten to enter past civilizations into the equation... Thanks. Ciao, Greg |
