Provinces of the Great Kingdom

[Havard]

I guess we'll overlap anyway, as I cannot produce this kind of stuff endlessly.
The Great Bay will likely be completed this week, or the next, but after that, I guess I'll take a longer break.
- Also, because "Home of the Ancients" will need a few more writeups.

I'm trying to stay out of your projects, but its hard because you keep dancing all over the place

Beyond that, I will be basing the Province of the Western Marshes on various tidbits from the FFC and the DA modules. There is a lot to go on if you only find a way to connect the many pieces of the puzzle. Of course, this also means there could be many interpretations and mine will only be one of them.

Speaking about that, what about Rhun? Province, or separate country?

Rhun is a duchy to the far east. I'm keeping it out of Thonia. Probably Rhunians are related to the Skandaharians.

Certainly. It is derived from the description of the Gin of Salik from the FFC. Both the title Gin (Djinn?) and the fact that he travels on a Flying Carpet made me think of an Arabian Adventures style realm. I have recently come across some more hints to where this Gin character may have originated from, but I will need to investigate that further before I can make any more specific claims.

I am going full Thieves World on that one; the Gin is the shadow chancellor of the city he resides in, an ageless wizard who is trapped on this material plane for some unknown reason.

Not really familiar with Thieves World.

Yeah, I think the basic premise is to make Blackmoor playable. Whatever happens in the other provinces is just a backdrop,
at least for now. - I mean, Ruins so far is a mini-game, really. If we ever see Palmyra in-game, it will be around... 2025?

Sorry, I said I would use Palmyra, but I think this is one of your creations? I had it confused with something else. It is not on my list afterall (just checked).

Atmosphere-wise the region may also be a bit different, but that would be due to the different time periods we are dealing with. I will be describing the Thonian Empire during the reign of Iyx I, a period where Thonia is basically controlled by evil rulers, even if many of its inhabitants are good people.

I look forward to your description; my own description of the Empire during Uther's age, I always set as needed,
and that was a blessing for the campaign. In the future, I'd like to have that more codified, though, because of the things that
are meant to come... :twisted:

Would you be pissed off if I produce an actual PDF of Thonia? I actually have more material completed than I realized... :oops:

Don't want to step on your toes though...
