Just a reminder that I did an undersea setting for @evilhat's game Scum & Villainy for #Dungeon23 / #World23 for the first half of the year. It's still out there on Google Docs, and if any of y'all AP podcasters want to use it for an #ActualPlay #podcast, that would be really cool!

#Dungeon23 (#World23 #Sector23) final meta post

Well folks, I'm done. Tried to make it to June 30 but this head cold done me in.

I want to thank those who encouraged me. I would have given up long ago if not for you.

This project was a love letter to The Adventure Zone Ethersea and @evilhat's Scum & Villainy, and I hope one day they get to see it.

And maybe some day I can polish what I have into a full playable setting, with stats and all. Who knows?

Anticipation of the Songbird (faction - weird [revision])
A gathering of elder collectors obsessed with the pre-Cataclysm world. These malcontents and dreamers buy – and sometimes steal – any artifacts they can find that come from the Time Before, and store them in a in a private room in the back of the Albatross University in Second Hope. The dream of the Anticipation is that, if they gather...

Amon’s Angels (faction - criminal [revision])

A cartel of gangsters running a protection racket out of Destiny’s Reach. The Angels were brought together a decade ago by the unscrupulous Amon Tobbler, who brought together various small gangs to work together instead of fighting for turf. The Angels bill themselves as guardians of the local merchants, but their “wards” need the most protection...

The Edge Lords (faction - weird [revision])
A gang of dark sorcerers founded by ex-Flow Rider Shith Anaksin, who peered over the edge of the Delvin Trench into the abyss and found something malevolent staring back. Unlike the Flow Riders, who pledge to help others and only use their powers offensively as a last resort, the Edge Lords are willing and eager to hurt people with their magic if it...

The Flow Riders (faction - weird [revision])

A mystical order of ascetic monks dedicated to the study and practice of The Flow, an omnipresent magical energy that, according to Flow Rider lore, ‘pervades and connects everything in the ocean.’ Most who have heard of The Flow dismiss the idea as fantastic, magical sea water, but at virtually any bar or tavern in Balforam Alhezar, there's a grizzled...

The World Enders (faction - weird [revision])

A Second Hope-based doomsday cult dedicated to heralding – and in some cases actively hastening – several prophecies about a coming apocalypse. Many attempts have been made to point out to them that the Great Cataclysm – an apocalypse – has already occured, and thus that current Balforam civilization, and the World Enders themselves, already...

Tomb of Lyral Den (location - Durgan's Landing)

A few hundred yards outside the main settlement of Durgan's Landing sits a well-guarded statue and burial site for Lyral Den, sibling to Founder Lora Den and – as many Landers know – the unofficial Seventh Founder. The specifics of Lyral's involvement with the Founders, and the circumstances surrounding Lyral's death, remain publicly a mystery...

The Founders (faction - establishment [revision])

Durgan's Landing was founded by a collective of six settlers, Durgan Spatchcock, Lora Den, Mek Penstel, Sharm Byreg, Prof. Agra Krill, and Dr. Facsimile "Fax" Natsin. A decade later, those six settlers still run things, each with their own domain. Durgan serves as the prefecture's namesake, but no one Founder sits above the other five...
