Epics, Sagas, Fantasies, Mythos, Legends, Nations.

[HoneyBadger]

This is a post with the purpose of collecting and discussing the mythology behind Dominions 3, and the mythic influences we'd like to see in the game, that don't already have a clear, strong representation.

The rules for this thread-to keep it from going OFFTOPIC (OFT)-are simple.
1: Only post about, and discuss, things that are already in the game, where they come from, their nature, etc., and things that you think belong, or deserve to be in, Dominions 3.
2: Those things discussed should only pertain to (as per the title of the thread): Epics, Sagas, Fantasies, Mythos, Legends, real-world Nations, novels, series, comic books, movies, etc. that you seriously believe either relate to the current version of Dominions, or think would add to it, and have been overlooked, set aside, or ignored.
3: The purpose of the thread is to share knowledge, to discuss; and to expose the uninitiated to, areas of mythology, history, literature, etc. that they may not be familiar with. So if you have a favorite, but obscure hero, legend, god, author, graphic novel, or corner of the map that you think would make good Dominions fodder, then please feel free to share, so we all can enjoy!
