They Harry Potter world is extremely inspiring, imo, and I actually love it much better than I love the stories or the characters. It seems like an excellent place to start.

I know one of the books that really got me into worlds is Island of the Blue Dolphin, a story that I read when I was really young about a girl who gets stranded. Dragonsinger, by Anne McCaffrey, kind of follows the same theme. I've always been obsessed with thoughts of surviving, and I love apocalyptic scenarios. What would people do to survive? What adaptations happen? How would I survive? What would the struggle to survive be like?

Books are definitely a great inspiration for RP, and RPing lets us explore some of the struggles and hardships that we imagine. We get a more difinitive conclusion in a game than we do in real life. I know that I wondered how well I would do at Hogsworth when I was reading the book. I'd probably fail at Quidditch.
