Very interesting! I thought that I was the only person left in the world who remembered Steeleye Span. :D<br><br>->Peter<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Apr 12, 2008 at 6:53 PM, Steve Perrin <<a href="mailto:steve@limitedchaos.com">steve@limitedchaos.com</a>> wrote:<br>

Essentially you had an England-like island that was volcanic and the individual areas were divided up into alleys demarked by the ridges that ran down from the volcano center. These valleys were called "Spans," and each was a community into itself, though they were loosely federated as well. I used a lot of Ars Magica Scottish material and Pendragon Scottish and Irish material for it, and I based most of the storylines around the songs of Steeleye Span (which, not so coincidentally, was the name of the Span the PCs came from).<br>

While the RQ/BRP rules have been and can be adapted to just about<br>
any setting A part of me has always thought the age of the<br>
ancient celtic clans was a perfect match...<br>

An interesting match up.. is how the cultures valued<br>
the kind of extremes of individual versatility that<br>
mirrors what the the RQ mechanics encouraged<br>
and its greatest heros were warrior mages<br>
