Since I will (hopefully) be starting a 5e campaign fairly soon I have been working on a new setting tailored to the system. This is backwards of my usual approach, in the past I have designed a setting and then tinkered with the rules until they worked for what I was doing. This time I am going based on what setting elements are implied by the rule books. With just the PHB there is not too much to go on but there is certainly enough to get started. I started a thread on therpgsite about implied setting elements in 5e. http://www.therpgsite.com/showthread.php?t=30470
The thread delivered and quite a few people chimed in listing what setting elements they could tease out of the PHB. I plan on posting my progress on the setting as it develops here. Tomorrow my goal is to get an outline of basic world elements posted here as well as the regional outline of the area potential players will be starting in. I work from the ground up so the largest portion of detail will be on an area roughly the size of a small modern county.
