A new challenger appears!
Given September 27th is Lindsey’s birthday, there was no better time to add her to the Characters page! Check her out!
How hard is entering the realms?
Physically, not hard at all. The border between the three major realms vs the normal world (or “Scientific realm) can be walked across as easily as any state line or map border. Of course, there are defined border crossings and those are secured, and nominally the rest of it is monitored and secured. But as […]
Divine Marks: How they work, why they exist, and what the consequences are
Inside the realm areas, a lot of rules for physics and such are a bit different. But aside from various ‘passive’ things, there’s also what can be called ‘god magic’ (though there’s other terms in setting, often “Realm Psychoactive Energy” or “RPE” in a research context, because nobody likes using the word “Magic” in a […]
Thordani terms and sayings
One part that’s fun about writing is coming up with terms and sayings. Here’s a few from the Thordani.
Three Pantheons revamp timeline (2001-2011)
The one sentence summary is “Modern fantasy with cold war tensions, magic, and gods.” Here’s a modified high level timeline focusing on the world itself and less on Nathan. Will work on this further, but this is where we are now.

Let’s talk about anthropomorphic animal combat.

We have, of course, created lots of ways to bypass this as a species, and just as many […]
Faenya Lore start
Just a quick blurb about Faenya in my “Wings and Prayers” setting. Writing it down here to build off of later. Faenya is NOT a primary mover and shaker in the greyhawk theme, she’s a elven god of avariel in core canon. And given the Thorsari OBVIOUSLY got suboptimal land placement, here’s my pitch. THe […]
In gods we trust, all others pay cash.
Something I’ve been working on in my revamps is trade. In Three Pantheons, it largely revolves around WHAT is being traded. For Three Pantheons, the divine realms generally are in a bit of a Cold War standoff with the technological areas. And one thing I’ve decided to do is to play with transmutation. At the […]
The future of “Three Pantheons”
So Sundered Shroud is finally in a good place where I’m comfortable. But as that’s largely a setting I run for RP, that’s going to probably move to the back burner for a while now. So I’m turning my attention elsewhere. For the setting of another character. And while eventually they’re all going to get […]
