  1. The Islands: Spellcasting

    (Note: This is ultra-crunchy. So if you were following along hoping for more world info, you're going to have to wait until the next entry.)

    Spellcasting
    All PCs have the Spells class feature. It looks like this:

    Spells: You can cast spells. Your Spells Known are on Table [x].2: [class name] Spells Known. [ability] governs your spellcasting.

    Yeah, that’s the whole thing. And here’s the skinny.

    Divine Spells:
    You cast divine spells because ...

  2. The Islands: House Rules

    You Play Your Gender: If you are male, you’re character’s male. If you’re female, you’re character’s female. Things are easier on me that way.

    Ability Scores: Your ability scores are 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18, arranged how you want. Okay, Jason, so you don’t want an 8. Fair enough. Anyone can instead choose 10, 10, 12, 14, 16, 16. I guess if you wanted to you could go 10, 12, 12, 14, 14, 16 or even 12, 12, 12, 14, 14, 14. I’m not sure why you’d want to—this is Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 ...

That’s shitty policy in a role-playing game of high fantasy adventure.

    So your character is special.

    You tell me what you want to do, and I build your ...

  4. The Islands: Fǔshůn and Kébéme

    Fǔshůn
    The ruler of Fǔshůn (pronounced foo-SHOON) is the Celestial God-Emperor in the Ninth Sunrise of the Jade Forever Majestic, Xuzfei (pronounced SHOOZ-fy) the Eternal Warrior. He is a lich who, until three months ago, consumed a soul a day to maintain his corporeal form. Now he must consume ten, and it is rumored that soon he will need a hundred or possibly a thousand. No one knows what brought this about, but the weather in Fǔshůn has taken a turn for the worse: it rains all the ...

  5. The Islands: Waclaw and Mastoorah


    Waclaw

    The ruler of Waclaw (pronounced VAK-LA) is Duke Pawel Wladyslaw, a dipsomaniacal nitwit who is the plaything of his Council of Significant Persons, corrupt businessmen and landowners whose goals are to squeeze every copper from every pauper, live magnificently on the backs of as many peasants as they can gather, and conquer foreign lands where they can continue doing the previous two things.

    More than anywhere else, the nation of Waclaw is nearly dead. The land is ...
