The Kingdom of Castiel will be our first major location release for The Chronicles of Ballidrous. I chose this one as the primary as it is a coastal setting in the far northwest. The feel is as if it is an isolated nation with only interactions with a few other local nations, allowing players who are not familiar with the setting to have a chance to slowly learn.
Key points of this area:
- With the dawn of commerce abroad becoming prevalent, venturing out to discover the world around them sits at the heart of budding adventurers.
General Storylines
- Touch more on the Fae interactions with humans.
- A clash between the worshipers of the Old Gods and the introduction and rising popularity of the Eidonias (elven) gods.
- Was recently occupied by the Ardalian Empire, an elven military-driven nation.
- An empire of humans once ruled the lands in the north but mysteriously disappeared ages ago, leaving behind remnants of their civilization. Cassians are indirect descendants of these lost people.
Castiel will also be the launching point for the first set of modules focusing on the storyline – ‘The Bai’shen Prophecies’. Awesome times to come!
Let us know what you think!!!!
