大家好!相信我的矮人伙伴已经告诉你了—如果他们没有在路上被巨魔吃掉的话—我是 Ethan Mitchellson,洞察设计的神!说到这里,让我想到如果你被禁锢在碧塔嘉的境域,可能不会知道凯德海姆的十个境域是怎么创造出来,以及我在这个过程中扮演了什么样的角色!
在从草稿开始建构一个宇宙时,你并不需要完全从头开始。一些宇宙设计的原则及基调可以重新使用,完成那些保证能在多重宇宙中引起共鸣的目标,也就是这样我和我的团队藉由北欧神话的启发,建构了中世纪的斯堪地纳维亚社会。我们阅读了150,000 本相关的书籍,其中我特别推荐尼尔.盖曼的北欧众神、Geoffrey Bibby 的The Testimony of the Spade 以及 L. Sprague de Camp 和 Spencer Pratt 的奇幻小说「咆哮的喇叭」。
拿起我的白板笔—那和橡树一般巨大,符合我风格的东西是艾席嘉的矮人送我的礼物—我在白板上写下了几个印记,宽度有三只公牛从鼻子到尾巴那么宽。这些印记构成了符文,翻译出来是这样的「九十个境域,分别属于一个种族。」远古的北欧神祇有九界,我们希望多一个;远古的北欧种族没有分得那么清楚:华尼尔和光明精灵是一样的吗?黑暗精灵和矮人是一样的吗?有人知道吗?我们的种族会清楚地受到牌上的类别文字所定义。清清楚楚地。清清楚楚地?那是不可能的。荣光需要冲突,所以我们设定了十个境域时不时会产生纷争,加强了一个境域入侵另一个境域时勇士的羁绊,并为我们带来了战歌和传纪。
另一个北欧神话的特色是不只回顾过去—世界的起源,也同时看往未来—结束与重生。我喜欢一个宇宙的过去及未来很大一部分受到居民影响的想法。显然有个机制是会回顾过去的:传纪!我们为了另外一个世界多明纳里亚设计了传纪,而比起当时凯德海姆搞不好更适合!「传纪」这个字就来自远古北欧。单纯制作旧的传纪不会有什么具体的内容,这次我们决定制作多色的传纪,让我们有更多可以设计未被讲述内容的空间!
至于「未来」的机制,我们想要一些新的东西。如果境域间彼此的纷争会造成巨大的冲突—小型的诸神黄昏,那,凯德海姆上的预兆和预言家则会试着预测那些末日劫—他们是这样称呼的。我们制作了一个机制来代表那些生物和来自另一个境域的事件,以及预言那些世界的占卜魔法。
机制上来说,这个机制意味着你被迫要提前做出计划。对手可以看到信号:有些重要的事要发生了,但那是什么?最终,这个咒语会来自放逐区,代表来自另一个境域。
当然,知道一场末日劫即将发生和做好准备是两回事。身为神,我的同事和我自然有足够的预视知道事情的结尾,但人类并无法看到那么久之后的事。你会做什么准备来面对当斯达海姆—女武神的境域—和你谦虚的领地碧塔嘉重迭时,一场大规模的末日劫?
如果我要为入侵十个境域中任何一个选一个主角,没有人比女武神更合适的了!你可以使用斯达海姆总攻击来在很赶的情况下派出一支天使,或耐心地等待更多天使降临。以下是个很好的例子告诉你如何利用其他的强力女武神:

一副纯白的套牌在指挥官里将会充满挑战,但战歌并不是为了冰霜巨人在战斗中击倒人类幼儿而设的。如果有人能够名留青史,所有的挑战并将终能克服!这副套牌将能为你带来荣耀的胜利。一副大型飞兵的套牌很难被阻挡,而莱拉的异能能为你的天使带来系命,确保你能无后顾之忧的放心攻击。
