Today's Topic – Many topics one episode

So we have done several episodes recently about individual questions from members of the undercroft. This episode will cover several questions that I did not think I could talk about for an entire episode. So other thanks must go out to our Facebook Undercroft Group.

Lee How to design a high magic world without creating "magic superheroes."
Evan and Robert - influences by other author’s work and concerns about being too similar
1) similarity with other’s works,
2) use of ordinary fantasy terms/beings(i.e., elves, orcs, dwarves) and their characteristics
3) “influence/homage” versus “plagiarism/copycat” in one’s work.
Does seeing similar ideas (constructs, characters, deities, cultures, etc.) paralleled in separate worlds bother you?
