Finding Your Campaign Setting
Malpos is designed as a world setting comprised of world setting. Though incomplete, the continuity of the worldspace is designed to be able to fit the aesthetics of most fantasy settings into it at some place and point across its continents and timelines. When beginning a new game, it is important to choose an appropriate time and location to fit the kind of story we want to tell. While I try to allow all official D&D content into my games using that system, I do limit certain options if they have not been developed yet in the world lore. Below, I have listed a number of fantasy genres and sample settings. If you can't find what you are looking for, consider reading either Introduction to Malpos or Ages of Malpos to see if you can find where your setting would fit best.
