Re: Beyond Yttarria [Banestorm]
What about more stuff from Gabrook, Lorendil, and Olukun?
Undersea civilizations? Lost Megalan colonies/outliers? A Narnia-like realm? |

Three words for an America-analogue: Iroquois, Aztec, Inca.
Two more words: Go Crazy. :)

Re: Beyond Yttarria [Banestorm]
I prefer the mysterious Olmec to the overdone ones like Aztec and Mayan.
There's always the extinct hominids like "Hobbits", Neanderthals, and more primitive homo erectus.

An obvious pulp fantasy route would be to go with Aztecs and dump in jaguar-people (Gabrook?) and snake-people (Olukun?) from other timelines, Do Homo ergaster and Homo neanderthal, they're both positively confirmed to be distinct species that archaeic Homo sapiens (aka "Cro Magnons") interbred with, so you can have half-humans without handwaving :)

Re: Beyond Yttarria [Banestorm]
It would be a cool setting. And, as in my African notion, much easier to write, and more fun to use, than a GURPS: Polynesian Tribes and Mythology.
