Using Real-World Beliefs
Texto
When examining the mythology and folklore of real-world cultures and religions, GMs and players should remain firmly mindful of the fact that these may be the genuine beliefs of real people who may consider them sacred, and therefore might not be appropriate for incorporation into a game. As always, we strongly recommend discussing the intended use of such things with everyone involved in the game. We further remind those who may play in the vicinity of others that some of those people may likewise be offended by the use of certain things drawn from real-world cultures in a game. A proactive sensitivity to the beliefs of others goes a long way toward helping everyone feel respected during what is supposed to be a fun experience!
