Hello:

If anyone is interested, I have a homebrewed world called Therra that has been in continuous campaign mode now for 13 years.

http://home.earthlink.net/~devinc/jerranqsmall.gif

You can find out about Therra at:

http://home.earthlink.net/~devinc/therra3.htm

This page contains all of the 3rd edition Therran stuff. The bulk of the 9 year campaign took place under 2nd edition and you can find a link to the 2 Ed Therran page here as well.

Included are maps, guides, gods, stories, etc. The 2nd edition page includes an entire campaign to save the world, including the final massive world-ending scenario that is over 600 pages long!

Therra is a low magic world where the gods were tricked into Slumber by the Deceiver, who then sought to claim the world as his own. The gods were awakened and the Deceiver dragged into Slumber with the gods at the end of the 2nd Ed campaign and the world was cleansed of the Deceiver's menace.

Now, 21 years later, the world has rebuilt from the great War of the Gem and evil is creeping back into the world.

I welcome comments and anyone who wishes to write submissions for inclusion into Therra can contact me at devinc@aol.com.

So far I have several people around the world using my campaign world as their own D&D setting.

Regards,

Devin

The Heroes of the Gem section will be updated in a few weeks to reflect a new high level adventure they are going through.

Also, maps will be redone in CC2 Pro, so hopefully they will look better.

Hello.

I have redone my world map in CC2 Pro. It now looks great (if I do say so myself).

I invite you all to check it out at:

Lots of new stuff added to the website:

1. Revised slightly the large continental map of Jerranq. This may take a while to load on a dial-up, but I have been told the map is stunning.

2. Revised the maps for the Far Coast and Northern Border of the Far Coast in CC2 Pro. They now look much much better!

3. Added a narrative of a neat scenario I ran for two players called Above and Below.

4. Added an overview map of the Kingdom of Slumber showing the Cantons ruled by the Heroes of the Gems (map done in CC2 Pro)

5. Added a detailed map of Queequeg's Canton, showing all major settlements and points of interest (map done in CC2 Pro)

6. Added a document giving a fairly detailed overview of the legendary Kingdom of Slumber, including a creation myth and other details for anyone wishing to set a campaign in that kingdom.

First 3 ed Therran scenario is posted!

You can find it on the website:

http://home.earthlink.net/~devinc/therra3.htm

This is a high level scenario run through by the Heroes of the Gem. It's heavy on combat, as we used it as an introduction to high level play for 3rd edition. All stats have been converted to 3.5 and the encounters were designed to use a wide variety of abilities and combat styles.

More scenarios (many for low level parties) to be posted in the next week or so!

The first low level scenario has been posted to the Therran website. It is an assassination mission undertaken by the forces of good to remove an orcish emissary from rallying the tribes against the dwarves. The final fight was a blast to run for my players...especially with the dragon (it's an itty bitty one and is on the players' side!).

More scenarios published on the website for Therra.

Here's a brief rundown:

Enough is Enough! - The first high level adventure for 3rd edition Therra, the Heroes of the Gem are pitted against a troublesome power who has a longstanding grudge against Morg. The Heroes reunite to take the battle to the enemy and stop him from making any further attempts on Morg or his family. A short adventure for levels 15-20, heavy on combat and a chance for high level characters to flex their muscles. For use with the statistics of the Heroes of the Gem presented on the Therran website.

Strike Back - An orcish emissary is travelling the lands south of Nirzumbil attempting to keep the tribes in line and focused upon harrassing the dwarves. If the party can defeat the emissary before he can complete his rounds, they might be able to splinter a part of the orcish alliance. An adventure for levels 3-5.

A Taste of Honey * - The party has been hired to retrieve some honey from the some bees. Sounds simple right? Too bad these bees are monstrously large! An adventure for levels 2-4.

A Gem in the Hand * - The party wants to collect its reward from a dwarf they have aided. Unfortunately, getting him home is half the fun. A sequel to "The Ring of Truth". An adventure for levels 1-3.

Where There's Smoke... * - Some plot is afoot in the town of Dwillingir. What is the secret behind the mysterious metal crate? Who is maneuvering to shift the balance of trade in the region? An adventure for 1st level characters.

Above and Below - Haggofik the dwarven prospector has a nose for ore. And he believes he's found a vein of rare metal up in the mountains. The only problem is that this territory is claimed by a tribe of birdmen. An adventure for levels 2-4.

A Bit of Blood * - The recipe to fashion that magic item calls for a few drops of fey blood. Hmmm...where in the nine hells can that be found? The first Riverine Campaign adventure, suitable for level 1 characters.

Devin

Coming Soon to the Therran website:

The remaining detailed maps of the last four Cantons of Slumber.

A map of the Isle of Onlor

The map and detailed description of House Riverine in Dwillingir

An overview map of the town of Dwillingir

The scenarios:

"Let it Be": It's finally time to head home from the dwarven stronghold. And surprise surprise, another orc attack. But something's not right here. Why are the orcs more afraid than the party? What is it that lurks in the abandoned mines that is striking fear to the normally fearless orcs? An adventure for levels 3-5.

"Love's Labour Lost": Lady Marinto is the daughter of one of the Pasheks of Gerilong. She has been placed in the party's care to weather out the political turmoil raging across her father's lands. But exactly who or what is the party protecting her from? An adventure for levels 4-5 that uses many elements from Oriental Adventures.

I have posted a 3.5 edition version of the Grandfather Plaque from 2nd edition AD&D. The Grandfather Plaque was technically a type of gargoyle in 2nd edition, but I have converted it to a golem construct.

The Heroes of the Gem have such a creature in their service, and so it was necessary to do the conversion.

You can find it at:

http://www.devinweb.com/creaturegrandfatherplaque.htm

More creatures will be upcoming, including:

Clockwork Swordsman (conversion from 2nd edition AD&D)

The Essence of Evil (a horror from Therra)

Aobi (servants of Flupnir, God of Tricks)

The Riverine Guildhouse is now posted to the website in the DM Only section.

This is a complete map of every single room in the Dwillingir House Riverine Guildhouse, which is comprised of four above ground storeys plus a basement and dungeon.

No NPC stats are presented (those will be posted separately soon), but there are several new magic items presented in the writeup and the whole could serve even non-Therran DMs who need a large, decently well-guarded mansion or guildhouse that their PCs can use as a base of operations or can even try to break into and do a little "borrowing" ;-)

The guildhouse contains some clues to secret information for the Therran Campaign, so players of the campaign should not avail themselves of this item.

I am proud to announce the posting to the Therran website of the Onlor Gazetteer. This is a large (80 pages) document detailing the Isle of Onlor, a body of land the size of Australia that is home to the halflings of Therra, though it is now also colonized by humans, elves, and gnomes.

The Gazetteer features a description of every single village, town, and city on the Isle with a population of 200+. Terrain features are also presented, along with overviews of the four kingdoms, details of customs and mores, a history of the Isle, etc. This document accompanies the large scale map of Onlor presented on the same website.

Onlor was the starting location of the first Therran campaign, and as an Isle can be easily transported into any campaign world.

Thanks.

I used CC2 Pro, from Profantasy (www.profantasy.com). It is a very VERY difficult program to learn and the documentation is really pathetic, but it also cannot be beat by any other mapmaking program around once you finally master it. The headache is well worth it for the end results IMO and now that I know my way around it I can create maps very quickly and easily.

I know lots of threads on this boards have called for contributors. I can only say that my world, Therra, is vital, active, and has several campaigns running in it around the world. There is a chance that at some point, if the setting reaches a certain critical mass, it may be published (possibly self-published).

I welcome any and ALL potential contributions to the world from the gaming public at large. These can be ANYTHING...from a writeup of a Therran religion to a scenario to a single encounter to a new creature to an NPC to a song or poem...anything no matter how large or how small. You can even "adopt" a corner of the world and design it whole cloth!

My only guidelines are that it has to be good and it has to fit into the world (or at least not contradict the world).

I don't publish official Therran stuff on this message board, so don't bother submitting stuff here. Instead, if you are interested, please email your stuff or questions to me at devinc@aol.com and please put THERRA in the subject line somewhere so I won't spam delete you.

Anything I publish to the Therran website becomes official Therran doctrine and is adopted into the setting. Of course, anything you submit to me becomes my material to use in the world as I see fit. I will always properly credit any contributors. You will get no pay, but you will be part of an ever-expanding long term fantasy gaming world, you will be published to the website, and your name will be credited prominently.

Anything you submit that I intend to edit I will consult with you first.

Several players in the world are already submitting items.

Devin

Thanks for the kind words. I'd love to publish one day, and welcome any artists who might wish to have their work decorate the website and eventually the published pieces.

I also reiterate my invite for anyone who wants to contribute anything to the world. This is a large and expansive world and it is enduring (been around for 12 years now) and will be growing steadily.

Hey, great work! I've been admiring your world for quite some time actually. I remember you saying on one of the threads that you would accept help if it was good enough. I was looking at your global map at the little place called Deggern. Any possibility you'd like help fleshing it out? I had an idea, if you'd like something bizare for such a far-off place, for a nation of good, lawful, and highly-technological orcs. If this sounds interesting I'll post more later...

Dear Tel'max:

Thanks for the compliment. And of course I am always looking for contributions to the world.

Deggern is actually not so small if you look at the scale of miles. I think it is on par with Australia.

In any event, Deggern is almost the last frontier of Therra, in that it is the only area that I have almost no pre-conceived ideas about. As such, it WOULD be a wonderful place for contributions.

However, you may have noticed that I have a file on my website that lists every single creature and race in the game and tells where they are native. I have done this massive project in order to lend Therra a more realistic feeling by having most creatures native to a fairly small range of territory. I think this is much more in line with our own world and, more importantly, allows ecologically for a wide menagerie of creatures to exist without competing with one another.

How all this relates to Deggern is that there are almost none of the standard creatures or races on Deggern. It is in essence reserved for future releases, such as Monster Manual 4 and the like. For example, you may notice that some of the new races in the Expanded Psionics Handbook are native to Zzenddum. This saves me the trouble of having to explain why a whole new race suddenly plops up from nowhere and it makes the Continent of Zzenduum feel more exotic.

So, I'd not want to place orcs on Deggern. Orcs are native to Jerranq. There are none on Sazhansiir or Zzenduum or Deggern. No elves on these either. In essence, Jerranq is sort of the "generic" D&D continent, Sazhansiir contains some of the exotic tropical and reptilian monsters from the expansions, Zzenduum is for psionics and many bug-like creatures and desert dwellers (call it a Dark Sun knock off if you like). Deggern will probably be for whatever new stuff pops up from MM4 or other supplements.

That said, I see nothing wrong with considering your idea for Jerranq itself. It can't be an entire empire, but would you perhaps consider scaling it down to a community of such orcs?

Regards,

Devin

See what you think and tell me if you want me to write more:

The Jaganathi

Worshippers of the god Malaktum, the Jaganathi or 'Steel Orcs' are one of the most interesting small communities to be found throughout the world. They are composed of the descendants of a group of extremely skilled smiths who served under the Deceiver. However, their intense absorption in their art eventually led to their reverence of the god of smiths and the abandonment of the forces of darkness. Instead, they withdrew into the mountains under the aegis of the leader, the prophetess Tygiela Jaganath. There they still respond to her revelation that the end of the world would come about in 5,6901 years. To avoid the eventual, mysterious destruction of the world, the Jaganathi are slowly preparing vessel capable of crossing the boundaries between dimensions in search of the astral paradise foretold in their scriptures. The vessel is massive and far from complete, but still an impressive site nevertheless. Its name translates to the common tounge as Skyspanner and, when completed, will likely exceed a mile in length. The current community (perhaps 10,000 individuals at most) is overseen by a council of female priests, all descendants of the prophetess' many husbands. Females likewise hold most religious and political power in the rest of the community, being allowed to marry up to ten husbands provided they are able to support so many spouses....
devinmdp

10-11-04, 02:51 AM
I like it! Where shall we place them? In the Grashtilim Mountains seems appropriate. 10,000 is a very large community, so it would have to be somewhat hidden....perhaps underground or in a hidden vale?

Keep it coming.

The scenario "The Fimbulwinter" has been posted to the Therran website.

http://www.devinweb.com/scenariofimbulwinter.htm

The Heroes thought the Cult of Fimbul had been destroyed when its rituals were stopped. But they were horribly mistaken. Now a 40 mile swath of the Kingdom of Slumber has been plunged into an ice age, and more will follow. The Heroes must now find and confront The Fimbul himself to end the frosty threat to the realm. A scenario for levels 14-20 with an optional "kick-ass" ending encounter that will challenge the party to its uttmost.

The tomb of the ancient barbarian prince Hammon has overlooked the village of Hammon's Creche for centuries. None have ever pierced its haunted portals, and the bones of all who have dared circle the hilltop surrounding the tomb. Yet rumours persist of fabulous treasure buried with the prince, including his legenedary axe, armour, and shield. But recently, miners who dug into the base of Hammon's Tor were never heard from again, and villagers whisper that the mines are now haunted by barbarian spirits. Could a new way have been found into the tomb? And what of the sightings of white-clad figures near the mine entrance?

A large, multi-session scenario for levels 6-8. This scenario presents three items of legacy unique to the World of Therra and marks the first Therran use of the legacy concept presented in Weapons of Legacy.

Verego the werebear owns a hive of rare red-striped giant bees that make the most fabulous, sweet-tasting honey in the land. And in the past he has always been willing to allow others to have access to the hive. So why has he suddenly cut off all access to his hive? Will the prospect of providing him a mate change his disposition? A loose sequel to "A Taste of Honey" for levels 7-9.

This has proven to be a massive project, and as such I have fallen behind on updating lists for Tome of Magic, Races of the Dragon, Complete Psionic, and Heroes of Horror. Once I finish with the Spell Compendium update, the rest should follow rather quickly.

I have left to do on the Spell Compendium update:

B. Update clerical domains

C. Make a run through and see what updates need to ripple into PrC or other core classes such as wu-jen.

The Therran class listing and Feat listing have now been updated for Heroes of Horror.

Also, a few minor tweaks are being made to the scenario "The Tower of the Mage".

Specifically, a nerf to the brass minotaur from MM2, as the monster is way too powerful for its CR (golems should not get iterative attacks with a built-in weapon....see iron golem for example).

And a likely-needed tweak to stage three, on the off chance that a party of 9th level PCs does not have any ability to fly or levitate or change shape (horribly unlikely I know, but that stage of the scenario can be a TPK if the party does not have access to that). The tweak will be to grant some way for the PCs to travel over the obstacle presented in stage 3 by solving some minor puzzle.

Mercurian Vengeance:

Revenge is a dish best served cold. And now is the time to serve it up. Having recovered Nemis' soul splinter, the PCs have also learned some interesting things about House Mercur, things that have pushed Trade Lord Barnabus to the edge of irrational anger. Now he demands a reckoning. House Mercur must be assaulted, its leaders slain, and its secrets laid bare. For 6 PCs of levels 10-12.

Old Friends and Older Enemies:

House Mercur is crushed and its deadly secret revealed. Now the PCs must join forces with the Heroes of the Gem to confront those behind House Mercur perfidy. But just what lies at the end of this road? A fight to the death, or an opportunity beyond their wildest imaginings? For a mixed group of 7 PCs of levels 10-12 and 4 PCs of levels 15-18.

The Riverine Campaign is now completed. It was a 5 year campaign that started the PCs as 1st level hirelings of an outpost merchant house and ended with them (along with other heroes) slaying Lolth.

I now intend to begin my next campaign (with no title as of yet), an epic campaign from 2nd level all the way to 25th level, which should take about 10 years of real life time. There will also be an optional add on campaign for another 5 years of real time that will take PCs into the mid 30s in level.

I DO NOT intend to upgrade to 4.0. Instead, my next campaign will use the 3.5 system (though with some third party sourcebooks removed). Those interested can check the website for items relating to the new campaign (as well as all of the items relating to the old campaigns).

Furthermore, I will continue to post updates here until such time as WOTC charges a subscription price for posting here.

As always, outside contributions to Therra are welcome.
