| #1Azuridin_the_agedOct 24, 2009 23:31:13 | im going to be attempting something new for my world as i build it and we play. Now im not sure if this is the proper way to go about doing it or not. But i figure hey it might be fun and interesting. Being a fan of compiling my ideas and thoughts down and simply being creative. im going to be posting to this thread after every session of my DnD games in the hopes that not only will it help myself, my group, and my world creation in its gaming. But also give some aide to those who are looking for some help. Now my Dming style is abit off the wall at sometimes and i do tend to allow alot more leeway to my players as they go about. Allowing them abit more randomness and quite abit more house ruling to see how things pan out. My players themselves tend to travel different roads and pathways as we play. Developing their character persona quite abit as the games progress and delving the characters themselves down paths the players never thought plausible. So without further adieu im going to add to this thread with some background, and post next saturday...all hallows eve.... on the actual player development meeting. Hopefully we all will get to meet the fun lil ones who are going to be stepping into a whole new world. |
| #2Azuridin_the_agedOct 24, 2009 23:40:34 | It has been but a few months since the empire fully established itself in the southern most regions of the lands of Trigaren. A harsh and desolate wasteland left abandonded and infertile by the ravaging hordes of the Orc Chieftain Grignakh. The armies of the J'tan empire had pushed the vile savages far into the Balgor ridge. Leaving them to scavenge and fend off of the scraps of the new budding empire. But things have taken a much darker turn for this glorious would be nation. The emperor has begun to go mad. With the treasonous withdrawel of his brother with a claim to the crown, and his only heir and child having grown sick and near death law has begun to slide. He has left the Lord Wardens in charge of the city states. Their governing bodies left to fend for themselves and pay taxes and tributes to the sovereign ruler month by month. The lands of the Rolling plains are one such territory. Overseen by the great general Naztradar. A man of great excellance and prowess. A man who held much honor during the great raging war against the tribes of the goblinoids. But left to his own desires. Forgotten on the wastelands of a slowly descending lands his mind, his soul was lost. Treason abound, or so he had thought, led to executions to the townsfolk. Claiming most, if not all of the citizens to be conspiring against his rule and family. He was held so loosley together, teetering upon the edge of a final loss to madness. The day came when it was too much to bear, and the kidnapping of his child and death of his wife was the towns undoing. Driven mad a savage massacre of most of the townspeople was put in to place. With near to 30% of his citizens hung, burned, or crucified for acts of treason against his family the Lord Warden slipped into death. Lost to the forgotten sea of souls, he passed beyond our realm of existance. I fear since his death and the dissappearance of not only his son but his closest advisor was the final nail in the proverbial coffin. The goblinoids have begun to raid the shipping lanes. Rumors of a cult of an ancient forgotten god has sprung on the outskirts of town. Even the wilds are said to be plagued by the coming of undeath and disease. In these trying times we have seen new life though. Travelers abound coming to the quient little town of Frazule. Bringing with them hopes and desires at riches and heroic stories told in their stead. The towns people can only hope amongst them is someone who can lead these sagging dieing lands out of the darkness that plagues us all. The elders fear the time of shadow is upon us all. I for one, cannot disagree. Excerpts from Mephalas Journal. Member of the secret sect of the Vysjari. |
