Another (brief) delay.

So here, to hold you over for the time being, are a character sheet and a spell record sheet, both of my own devising, for Pathfinder.  They're still something of a work in progress, but should be functional nonetheless.

Personal use only, please.  Thank you!

Clerics of the Southlands

The faiths of the Tirin Peninsula are diverse, and the enmities and allegiances between them are many.

While divine spellcasters and spiritual leaders certainly exist within the Dellumean tribes, most are not clerics as such.

In Kalretia, faith is as divided as the culture. Amareth and Ki'ahaara command the most reverence among the civilized islanders. In the swamps, by contrast, worship—or at least lip service—is most commonly paid to Juratei.

The faiths in Ta'Araen are incredibly diverse. Some clerics pay homage to deities found nowhere else. It is unknown whether their magic is provided by the greater deities, or if they have actually tapped into divine sparks that have not yet been fully stoked.

Ravana dominates Tahvaair. While Dejunath has a small but loyal following, no other cult has been able to assert itself in the face of the Tyrant's.

The churches of Surya and Sulaudhra are the most common, or at least the most widely acknowledged, among the human population in Velakhura. The turéhu usually follow Khernos or Arevashti.

Still out here.

Life got in the way.  Additionally, I've actually been attempting to knuckle down, finalize some game-mechanical details, and work out some of the finer points of geography and culture for the Tirin Peninsula. 

But unless something really silly happens, count on a new official entry by no later than next Saturday.

Sorry for the delay.

Real life reared its not-so-ugly (this time, anyway) head.  Rest assured that the project is still in the works.

Oh, no, not another bonus post...and possibly controversial this time!

Ideally, this project will see publication within the next year or so.  And so, ideally, I'll eventually be needing illustrations.  And I've come to the realization that a certain common trope of the fantasy art genre could open up quite the can of wiggly worms.

So consider yourself forewarned.

Bards of the Southlands

Bards in the Southlands are as diverse as they are versatile.

In Dellumea, tribal skalds keep histories and legends alive.  In Kalretia, a reliable courier is often needed—by islander and swamper alike—to carry messages between the islands.  In Tahvaair, a neutral party is often needed to negotiate between rival nobles or those seeking allegiances.  The bards of Ta'Araen and Velakhura may be entertainers, messengers, spies, or any combination of the above.
