East Harbour Overview Security Rating: Magic B, Mundane B Cost of Living 3 The East Harbour District is dominated by two structures - the Stadium and the Dockmaster's Tribunal building. The two imposing structures stand on opposite sides of the main harbour, providing an impressive view to the ships traveling in to the city. Tolgar…
November 4 – NPCs of the Grand Market District
Huren Doras (Major Threat) Dwarf Warrior/Spy Huren was once a highly valued spy within the High Council but accidentally (or deliberately depending on who you ask) picking the wrong side in some nasty internal politics ended up with her forced retirement. She knows where all the bodies are buried (and put more there herself during…
D&D – Ghosts of Saltmarsh Campaign
Sorry I've been quiet but between summer time, starting a new campaign and getting ready to run a convention things have been hectic. I'm still puttering away on this setting but I need to go over things and rejuvenate myself. In the meantime though, this is a look at the new D&D game I've started.…
June 4 2019 – The Grand Market District
Grand Market Overview Security Rating: Magic B, Mundane B+ Cost of Living 5 The Market has always been an exciting, if occasionally dangerous, area of the city. Colourful stalls, more permanent businesses, taverns and more crowded into a fairly small district. A vibrant place during the day and an even more exuberant place at night…
May 23 – The Districts
While I need to do up the history of the world at some point I think that rather than me writing I'm going to use the Microscope RPG to get the details of the history. The only really main thing is that in the relatively recent past there was an earth shattering Cataclysm (the sort…
April 9 – Facts
So ended up being very delayed between various Real Life issues and the LARP convention we recently held (CAiNE) for Canada at Midnight. It's been pretty busy for the last month but finally back on track. This post I'm going to work out some facts about the setting. Things like population density, political structure, areas…
March 8 2019 – Intro
Now that I've decided to attack this from a far more organized stance it's time to get down to the nitty gritty. So far it's been some wool gathering, some idea generation etc. Good steps but not really what I'm aiming for. I mean sure it's useful for me but I'm used to my scattered…
February 21 2019 – Organizing Things
So far I'm a little all over the map. I definitely need to come up with some sort of outline just to keep the scattered chaos under some sort of organization. I know now that this experiment is going to focus in on one city now as opposed to a larger world, really push the…
February 14 2019 – Where Everyone Knows Your Name
One of the ubiquitous things in RPGs is the tavern/bar/nightclub etc. The place where characters go to unwind or to meet contacts or sometimes even to just eat and drink! By the time this project is done the city will have several such places but I want to get one down on paper first. Since…
February 7 2019 – Setting Overview/Overhaul
As I was writing up the starting adventure outline I realized that this is likely going to morph into a cyberpunk like urban setting for a fantasy game. Not a combination of those two elements, that is firmly in the hands of Shadowrun. The tropes and style of cyberpunk but in a definitely fantasy setting.…
