@HellcowKeith I was talking about the RPGs specifically. Dragonlance seen just as the initial set of adventures does fit the single purpose story, but by the very first dragonlance rpg book that has changed

Certainly. But as someone who was there at the very beginning, *I* think of Dragonlance as the modules and stories that started it off; it was five years before Dragonlance Adventures expanded on that.The point in the original discussion was that when you are creating something, you have a choice in that very first initial moment: focus on a single story or focus on multiple stories.

A single story world can always be EXPANDED. But Dragonlance BEGAN as a single story, as did Star Wars. The fact they were later expanded doesn’t change that. By contrast, there's no one central story to Eberron. From the very beginning it was created with more villains and plots than one campaign could use.

And that's not being BRAGGY or anything; it's a different approach. My RPG Phoenix is a single-story setting.
