>>8473281Its literally just the name of one of their settings.
There’s a bunch designsd for different game feels, but the main ones are:
>BlackmoorMost realistic setting. At its most fantasy, its just LOTR. Most of the world is more like Witcher.
>GreyhawkThe stereotypical D&D setting. Not much to say.
>Forgotten Realms/FaerunMore fantastical. Magic and artifacts are common, gods can be killed and walk the mortal world.
>EberronMore comic book-like. Faerun, but more technology/magitek so a core race is robots with souls and there are steampunk parts, even parts approaching dieselpunk.
>RavenloftGothic horror. Universal Monsters. Gloomy.
>MystaraBasically Blackmoor+Greyhawk. More realistic, but the vibe is generic D&D still. There are no gods known to man, just powerful immortals.
>Black SunFantasy Mad Max. Metal is rare, the world is harsh.
>PelinoreFantasy Coruscant.
>DragonlanceThe most worldbuilt setting. Has a LOT of novels, comics, and adventures set in it. Needs extensive research to enjoy well, but the history of the world makes it feel lived-in.
>Kara TurLike how the entire world is kind of German/French/English in most fantasy settings, except its Korea/Japan/China.
>SpelljammerIts Firefly/Babylon 5. But magic spacefaring sailing ships.
> Al-QadimKara Tur, but everything is Arab.
>BirthrightPlayers are the children of gods, and its Game Of Thrones.
>Council of WyrmsKara Tur. But all races are Dragons.
>PlanescapeMultiversal hub. All other settings at once.
>JakandorKara Tur. But Haitians and Polynesians.
>RokuganKara Tur. But more “realistic” in that its more about armies and politics than monsters and gods.
>Dragon FistWuxia.
>MahasarpaKara Tur. But all the other Asian peoples.
>GhostwalkKara Tur. But everyone is undead.
>Nentir ValeThe modern stock generic D&D setting. Supports the new races like Tieflings that are core races now. Otherwise, its Greyhawk.
>TherosKara Tur. But its Greek.
THE END
