GreenDragonInn
A fantasy role playing site with a difference. By following the prescribed guidelines, you can sign up as a member and take part in the fights and the chat. However, no modern era characters or typical science fiction characters are allowed. This pre-industrial feudal society allows only blue jeans, trench coats, zippos, cowboy hats, jello fights and the like into its inn. You can do some background research from books like Robert Jordon's The Wheel Of Time series, Terry Goodkind's The Sword of Truth series, the Dragonlance, etc. So if you're game, go ahead and fantasise.
