But… then I’d never leave the Holodeck. _shrugs_ Ah well. The Nexus liek I said would be good too. Because from there you can go anywhere. Its a reality that is connected to all other realities.

I want to live in the Bazaar at Deva! (Or is that _at_ the Bazaar _in_ Deva 😕 )

Alternate choices: Isle or Elwestrand, Carolna, Gwynedd, Lom, Zarathustra.

Damn, I read this whole thread only to have Kat spoil my response! Damn you Kat! 😉 Well, can I come with you? I’m too much of an asshole to live in Narnia anyway, everyone would hate me there… 😉

**slythe** , that’s _Pervects_, donchano? Don’t want any green, scaly guys coming after you, right? 😉

**Demo** , sure, the more, the merrier. After all, we’ll have that tent that’s bigger on the inside than on the outside. And watch out for dragon droppings around the stables.

No way!! Ike forgot the oral sex. One musn’t forget teh oral sex after spankings. It just wouldn’t be chivalrous.

If I had to use a more “traditional” fantasy world, I would say the _Wildcards_ universe. That would be Aces.

The city of Ceder Rabbits; home of the Anthropomorphic/Furry comics character Shanda The Panda.

Kind of like Pogo’s Okeefenokee; but with sex & the occasional good movie. Like “The Rocket Squirrel Picture Show”.

Two seperate people mentioned The Well Of Souls? Great minds think alike!

I’d like to live in the DC Universe. Magic exists, as well as outrageuos technology (S.T.A.R. Labs for one).

The world of Midkimea (sorry, I _know_ I misspelled it) from The Riftwar series would be cool.

Star Trek or Babylon5 would be cool to live in.

Another choice: Toonville, or whatever the cartoon land was called in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, as long as I get to be a Toon.

That would be Toontown. That might be interesting but wouldn’t you get tired of the safes and anvils?

Well, there are several, but my fave was (and probably is) the Cineverse (Craig Shaw Gardiner).

I’d also like to live in one of several universes I’ve “created” for superhero role-playing. I’d be one of those powerful, secretive characters who always operates behind the scenes. That way, I’d still be able to go into a hardare store without being mobbed by fans/potential assasins bent on revenge.

Not a bad city/castle/house in which to live.

-Oh, Fuschia? (Love that name…)

I’d live in the Marvel Comics Universe. When I was just a young geeky lad of ten, I wanted to be an X-Man. My similarly geeky friend Todd and I would pretend we were X-Men. I would be “Starblazer” and would pretend I could fly and chuck fireballs at evil mutants. Todd would be “Wolverine” (he had no imagination and couldn’t think up his own superhero identity!)

As weird as it sounds, I once had a dream I was in Star Trek, the original show. But I dreamed I was a “red-shirt” (one of those legions of hapless souls who always beams down to the planet’s surface with Kirk and Spock, only to get killed off before the midpoint of the show). I remember I was being instructed to report for a landing party mission and I was going “NO NO NO NO NOOO WAY!!!” True story, honest to God.
