Well, like the subtitles say this is just an odd little question I thought up, maybe someone knows the answer: The Earth for this RPG, since it IS a Dragonball Earth probably has the dinosaurs and dragons roaming around and the sapient animals... So my question though is: For this Earth is this a time in the future (compared to ours) or a distant past? There are, after all, plenty of stories about civilizations equaling or exceeding our own in the distant past (Atlantis, Lemuria etc) and then there's little things like so called 'modern' developments having roots in ancient discoveries: The Egyptians, some believe, had a simple electric light, during ancient times in the Arabian Peninsula they had a primitive battery (True it was mostly used for coppering and had about 1/2 a volt charge, but they had it, heh) the Library of Alexandria had blueprints for indoor toilets! ...So yeah...before I ramble on any more: Would you say this Earth is currently in a 'lost civilization' era, a distant and awesome future or just 'It's an alternative universe, shut the hell up and enjoy it fool!' |

Pretty much I think you can roleplay like there was just dinosuars. Or you can roleplay there was just robots and flying stuff. |

Eh, we've seen both in Dragonball/Dragonball Z so I thought it could be an amusing topic, get some discussion going on at least. |

Well in all honesty it is whatever you see fit. I've set my personal timeline about 30 years after the point where Frieza was about to kill the Saiyans. I've just branched it out and made an 'Alternate Universe' to the whole thing. There are no set times and so on. So do whatever you like :] |

The Right Turn in History

My Pan's history branched away from the one we know after the last tournament in DBZ. If that helps any. |

This site is really an "alternate reality" anyway, so you can rp exactly how you feel

My character has no origins related to cannon DBZ apart from being created and the look. And, I suppose him killing his Master but my way is way cooler. |

I read somewhere that the planet DBZ takes place on isn't our Earth but a "different" Earth. |

Well...yes. We didn't have spaceships with dinosaurs at the same time and they put AD as being in the early 100's I think on some official timelines. |
