Homebrew Earth Human Species Details
“Weary of the world around ye? Welcome to my world, where magic rules and dragons fly. Beauty meets the eye often here, and anyone can try to win a throne! Oh, aye, ye can do that in your world, too—but it's all more fun here.” — Elminster
Earth was a largely non-fantastical world cut off from most of the multiverse. Some sources claimed that this planet existed within an alternate Prime Material plane, but in actuality it existed within a crystal sphere on the same Prime Material plane as Toril, though its inhabitants were unaware of the existence of crystal spheres. It was difficult to locate among the Phlogiston and was potentially difficult to enter or traverse. The wizard Elminster Aumar claimed that there existed hidden portals not only between Earth and Toril, but to the planets of Krynn and Oerth. In this world's ancient past such portals were well-known and widely used, leading to legends on Earth of such fantastical creatures as dragons and griffons, but over time they were forgotten about.
