Llafanwyr

I have added some new information about the country that the game will start in, Llafanwyr, along with its capital city, Te’ralyn.

You can find this information under the Llafanwyr link on the Geography page, or you can just go here.

There are also a few names and organizations you may not have seen on the Famous Names page, including a bit about the rulers of Llafanwyr.

Character Creation

Here’s a head’s up to let my players know that the character creation page now has everything you need to create a character for the upcoming campaign.

If you haven’t already done so, I highly recommend familiarizing yourselves with the history, names, and geography pages a bit.  You don’t have to memorize, but a passing familiarity could expedite things.  Technically, a player can have a printed copy of the history as part of the character’s inventory (2 silvers).

I hope to have more world information up by tomorrow evening.

Players are also getting an e-mail with this information post.

Names and Legends

As promised, the “Famous Names” page has been edited, and it now has names on it.

There is new information for some of the people that were on it before, and more names (along with a couple of organizations) have been added.

While nowhere near complete, this update means that all of the world information pages now have information.

I doubt whether I’ll get any more done before the weekend, but if I do, the update will be noted here.

More Information

As promised, the “About Volara” page has some “out of character” information about the world.

I mentioned it on that page, but I’ll also mention it here: if you have any questions about Volara, that is probably the best place to do so, as additional ideas/input could help make the world better, or at least make me as the DM consider alternate aspects of the world.

The new work week begins in under ten hours, so I don’t know how many updates will happen during the week.

Still, I hope to begin adding country information and to put the names back up over the next few days.

Some Information

In the last few hours I’ve added a bunch of stuff to the site.

First, everything on the “About Volara’s Creator” page is new, some of which even my regular gaming group may not know.

Second, I’ve imported all the history that was up on my personal site, along with some stuff that hadn’t previously been added. It’s also been edited in a number of areas, so even if you’ve read it before, it’s worth a look. That’s in “Damon’s History of the World.”

Third, I’ve brought the map over, and it’s full sized here. There’s also a breakdown of the various countries that make up this world and the continents they’re on. I haven’t gotten around to making any historical maps yet, but they may come some day. That information is in “Geography of a Flat World.”

Finally, the character creation page is up, but it’s mostly empty for now.

Tomorrow should see some basic information about the world itself (climate, cities, time, creatures, etc.) added to the “About Volara” section.

If you have any questions at any time, please ask, and I may even answer. 

Please take a look around.
