I think we can use the established spheres (well, Greyspace and
Realmspace and Clusterspace and Refuge, anyway) as a good basis/area.
I'd also say add Spiralspace as Paul Westermeyer has it since the books
apparnetly refer to it but then in FR canon you have Rock of Bral being
in the Tears of Selune (all my ideas on this may be wrong, however, so
feel free to correct me).  Since this is given in Demihuman Deities(?),
a much more accepted and widely read book than the Cloakmaster Cycle
(for instance I haven't the CC and have no desire to) I guess we should
keep it in the Tears of Selune.  With Dragon Rock nearby as another
(competing?) port asteroid much development could be done on each
(sorta like Procampur and Ravens Bluff).  Anyway, that's where I'd
start from as a setup and limit most adventures to these areas (since
people can familiarize themselves with these areas relatively easily).

Do you really think I'd admit to stealing that much money in my email sig?  Uhh, don't answer that.

The crazier the people are around me the saner I am.  That's why I work
in an asylum.  No, not the rubber room again!  No, but, but, my email...
