Väruld Country - Gulhuva
A downloadable core book
Why choose Väruld?
In Väruld, magic is rare and boundless. Only a few can wield it, and for them, the only limit is their strength—but every spell must be balanced, or the consequences will ripple through the land.
Time flows differently here. A single orbit of Väruld’s sun takes 300 Earth-years, and there are no 'years' as we know them. Life is lived by the rhythms of nature—by seasons, cycles, and stories passed down through generations. How would you mark your age in such a world? What would a journal look like without a calendar?
Väruld is system agnostic, a sandbox ready for your stories, written or created during the tabletop RPG sessions.
Gulhuva
Gulhuva—a country once full of life, now half-forgotten. The winds have turned cruel, the rivers sour, and the soil refuses to grow what it once did. A slow environmental collapse drove most people away. Villages stand empty, mines drowned or cracked, and forests overrun where fields once lay. Those who remain live by grit alone, holding fast to stone and silence, waiting for the land to breathe again

The use of AI
The illustrations are collages of images and clipart, mostly bought and used with a license, with a few directly generated by ChatGPT (Dall-E). I cannot vouch for whether the bought material is made by AI or not.
The collages as such are not made by AI.
