A question for people who are not Canadian

[thebitterguy]

Or at least, do not live in an urban area in Ontario.

How hard is it for you to acquire hard core pornography? At least, offline? Do you have readily accessible shops whose sole purpose is the dissemination (NPI) of porn, with bits touching each other?

Is that material available in general merchants (i.e. in magazine format at normal corner stores, on dvd at a non-specialist video store)?

For those of you who do not wish to talk about smut, All your Base, as done by Queen.

Cosms: Some cosms tend to be somewhat goofy fantasy versions of the nation (Nippon Tech or Aysle are the two primary examples, Nile Empire slightly less so). The others are pastiches; Cyberpapacy (Cyberpunk with a medieavel schismatic church in place of corporations), Orrorsh (Lovecraftian horror in a south asian setting) Tharkold (Cyber-Horror). Then there’s the Living Land, which just sucked. Land Below merged LL with NE to make “good” setting.

China: Low tech, mid social, high magic and spirit. Wuxia & warlords. The High Lord is the Emperor of the invading China (possibly the First Emperor of China w/ DD). Wandering heroes against corrupt bureaucrats? Possibly apply laws of Heroism from Nile Empire, attribute packages for big heroes. Hong Kong is a mixed NT/CC setting, so guys can have guns in each hand. Revamp MA rules?

India: I have no idea. High magic, Spirit, mid social, low tech. Ask Brand for info/help on this. High Lord may be a false divinity (although most HLs are close enough in power level to the real thing), or just a raj or sorceror. Definite conflict w/ Gaunt Man.

Sub-Saharan Africa: Low Tech, High Spirit, Med Magic, Mid Social. Strip-mine Nyambe for everything you can find. High Lord: Not a white guy with an elephant gun. DD can be large ebony statue of Elephant? Lions abound. Horror setting similar to Orrorsh? Pulp adventure setting where Africans get to DO something?
