Could some one please give me a quick run-down on Mystara and what makes it unique. Nothing long, just enough for me to get a feel of it. Or some link to somewhere.
Thanks,
Locksley :D

Maybe the FAQ can answer some of your questions. :D

Here's another recent thread asking the same question.

Some possibly contradictory elements that could describe Mystara:

* Classic world of adventure
* High Fantasy and High magic
* Distinct cultures for human and non-human nations.
* Never far to the next country
* A Hollow Planet
* Immortals rather than Gods, and the Paths to Immortality
* A multitude of races and strange creatures, including the Rakasta Catfolk, the doglike Lupin and the Shapechanging Aranea spiders.
* Loveble and memorable NPCs

I'd add to Havard's list:

* Pseudo-historical settings;
* Complex political background (anyway, more so than other campaign settings ;) ).
