Much will likely change, hence I made the title, URL, and description of this world blog very generic. I started with the idea to create a world for RPGs and stories that was different from the rest, but that learned from those before it and was more fully fleshed out than any simple world I had done before for gaming or writing.
The first key idea I had that broke from the others is this world is not a round sphere: it is a series of distinct islands that float in space (this is fantasy, magic is allowed, so don’t act shocked that other things that break the normal laws of physics appear as well!). The basic idea is something long ago broke this world up, but it still exists, in some form, for some reason. See future posts under Geography and History for more details.
The basic travel mechanism between these islands is a series of portals that link to another plane. The “islands” vary in size from not much larger than a house to small continents, replete with lakes, oceans, rivers, mountains, deserts, and more.
