DF in Yrth

Those concerns are perfectly genuine, but if you just want to use Yrth for a source of large scale maps and place names and a bit of flavour, just say "there are immanent gods and wizard magic works like in DF", wave your hands, and run with it.

See also my notes on using the Discworld as the dungeon world. DF tends to play fairly fast and loose with (non-tactical) stuff, so it's probably not worth sweating the details.

(I guess that most clerics should be Christian outside of the wacky pagan lands, but whatever. Dungeon fantasy clerics have mostly defaulted to pseudo-Christian assumptions since 1972. I lose sales on DF7, I make sales on Banestorm.)
