Where do you hail from?

no, i don't want to know what country you're from, or even which site you're from, rather i was wondering which fantasy / scifi habitiat you call home. Is it the discworld? arakis? Xanth (like me), The Ringworld? Pern? The ninestar league? the federation? or one of the millions of others.







Edit: i know we've had these things before, but with so many new members on board, i thought it'd be easier to start again instead of resurecting.

Westeros, by way of Bernard Cornwell's Dark Ages Britain.

It would have to be the land of the Drenai or the Rigante

I'm from the same 'verse as Pyanfaruk: Firefly's Known Space.

I take vacations in Sharon Lee and Steve Miller's Liaden universe.

For me, it'd have to be a combination of HPL's haunted New England and its mirror-twin, the Dreamlands....
