Nabyu

Scope

The motivation behind building Nabyu

This world is being built as an experiment in what happens when players have just as much influence over the world as the DM.   This is a collaborative project that holds the ideas and passion of all the players who are playing in our world, and I have the honor of compiling all of those ideas and passions.

The goal of the project

I am hoping to have a campaign where the passion is interwoven in the world itself, so that the players are immediately invested and on board with the world- AND CARE ABOUT IT!

Nabyu's Unique Selling point

It's everyone's!! It's not a private project in the back of my mind that I can get by with only showing the surface of. It's living and breathing, and will surprise me with every one shot we do.

Theme

Genre

Fantasy!

Reader Experience

I want the world to feel HOPEFUL. I do not want the world to feel like it is against the players at every turn. Problems should make sense and be a natural result of history, and rarely because of "evil". Kindness is rewarded and love is abundant, even in the darkest of times.

Reader Tone

TBD- we are writing the setting as we go through history

Recurring Themes

Character Agency
