Väruld - part 2
A downloadable world core book
This world is meant for RPG Adventures and for stories. It is system agnostic. The world is meant for human interaction and problem-solving, more than fighting, but since it is a world, a sandbox of sorts, it is up to you how you want to use it.
The material does not include actual adventures!
This is part 2.
If you don't have part 1 and don't want to pay the full price for it, you can buy an excerpt here, which includes what you need to know about Väruld in general, which is described in book 1, but no lore and no countries are included.
There is also the option to consume Väruld online on the site WorldAnvil.
Väurld is a low-magic world, with few monsters and many conflicts between humans. My intention is to offer a world for adventures that involve primary puzzles and mysteries.
Väruld is a solar system with three planets, and one of them is currently being explored. The three equal-sized planets lie within the sun's habitable zone. Humans populate them, one race on each planet. 30,000 Earth-years ago, the planets aligned, and the gods-placed portals between the planets opened. For about a quarter of a lifetime, they let people move between planets, creating a mix.
But the mix was not equal shares. The original human race on each planet still dominates.
The planet explored is Fyrst. It is a world where electricity has not been found, no moon, and since it takes 300 Earth-years for the planet to orbit the giant sun, they do not count life in years.
Fyrst has 24 countries with a variety of cultures and history. You can search for truths in legends, solve local conflicts, search for treasures, and solve mysteries of crime and puzzles. Imagine yourself in the lush tropical forest with the damp heat or out on the harsh, bitter-cold tundra. Fyrst has it all.
Meet the warrior Avia, one of few who lasted to old age and is now a living legend, and a grandmother. Read an excerpt from "Baslare, our king and hero" an epic poem told to be a thousand verses long.
Most of Deris is a desert and steppe except for the south where the capital is, there it is tropical.
Hinvagh is a society breaking apart as we speak with leadership in the capital no one listens to.
Östan Sunnan is a theocracy and belives they are the religious center of the world.
