WorldEmber 2022

Well, lets get this kicked off with a bang!

(

All right. Normally, Dec 1 arrives and I throw myself into the deep end of the WorldEmber pool, holding a big rock while yelling 'Cowabunga'! This year? I thought I'd try the pledge route (just the pledge, I got real busy and didn't get the WE homework done...)

But, as the pledge suggests, I'll still be wandering over my worlds. The above, Windtracer, Tales of Justice, and Masters of Illuria, are three of the main ones I'll be focusing on, since they need the attention right now. On the side, I will be sneaking in a few from Star Wars Shards along the way.

There will also be some from Chaotic Potential but that's simply because that's a project and worldbuilding marathon on its own. It just happens to be going on during WorldEmber.

As I go, I'll drop them down here as I go, along with motivational images, and more. If you're following along, I hope you enjoy the ride!

So, to borrow a bit of what I tell my players in Tales of Justice...

Welcome, True Believers!

Are you ready? I know I am. Let's get this adventure started!

This is Kummer Wolfe saying...

Excelsior!

and...

May the Forge Be With You!

Week 1!

Breas System

Geographic Location | Dec 1, 2022

Breas is the last of the known star systems in the Epsilon Star Cluster. The youngest of the systems, it contains its own unusual phenomenon and opportunities.

New setting, tentatively called "Star Cluster", that hasn't even made it to its own world yet

Palatreum

Item | Dec 3, 2022

An ancient device from a civilized time. Built by the mysterious Choni Techaugers, it allowed communication or viewing across stellar distances.

One for Star Wars Shards to delight my players!

Week 2!

Xan Daran

Character | Dec 29, 2022

Sargon Xan Daran. In a galaxy of Light and the Dark, he is one of the more evil motes of darkness since Darth Sidious and his attempt to murder all the Jedi

Miban-Ontor Manufacturing

Organization | Dec 5, 2022

The leading manufacturing system in the Breas system, known for its revolutionary, and timely, idea of a ‘refinery starfleet’ that saved a stellar government and its people.

Strosarian Republic Military

Organization | Dec 9, 2022

The armed forces of the Strosarian Republic that formed out of rag-tag bands of rebels fighting against pirate aggression.

The Zarreva Survey

Plot | Dec 9, 2022

Ancient ruins in a jungle and a missing research team sends the heroes, and the newly reformed Star League on a twisted tale of mystery and danger!

This is a new Play By Post adventure. Mostly getting this set up while one last PC character is being ironed out.

Week 3!

Rough week, so only managed one this time

Sun Orb

Item | Dec 21, 2022

An ancient type of 'lantern'. Once was as common as a spoon but now one of the more sought after historically important artifacts.

Week 4!

And with this batch, I hit 10K words for WorldEmber!

Belari-scal

Language | Dec 22, 2022

The common language used by kobold tribes across the Planus Continent, and one that can be considered 'living history' on its own.

Star League Flight Ring

Item | Dec 22, 2022

A lost technology of the ancient Thanagarians, these rings once stood for peace and justice. They may still do that once more.

Thri'zel

Species | Dec 26, 2022

Known as the Children of Sloth, they are the meditative, calm people of Kazik'tar, the youngest species in the Voidrealms.

Episode 3.08: Kanter's War, Chapter 22

Plot | Dec 28, 2022

While the Republic launches a desperate assault against the main pirate stronghold, the heroes must deal with their own Duel of the Fates for the fate of Chalcedon!

Week 5!

And this week, I reached 25K ( I think )

Obsidian Armory

Building / Landmark | Apr 2, 2023

A library that almost no one has ever heard of. It may also be the greatest hope for Awldor if the Great Collapse continues, or happens again.

The Dark Device, Chapter 28

Prose | Mar 14, 2023

Raven Guard

Organization | May 29, 2023

A group of former Royal Guard and other Sith fanatics that follow their own twisted take on the Mandalorian Creed.

Tallaan

Geographic Location | Dec 31, 2022

The only inhabited world in the Tallaan system, and one most crucial for trade throughout the entire Freeworlds Territory, if not the entire Tapani Sector.

Episode 2.10 Wednesday's Child

Plot | Apr 30, 2023

A team of freelancers and bounty hunters are called in when a medical frigate is reported 'haunted' and starts randomly jumping through hyperspace across the Tallaan system.

Webway is a work of pure, unabashed fiction. So much so, it considers itself far-fetched and rather fancy when its not worried half to death. Names of characters, places, events, organizations and locations are all creations of the author’s imagination for this fictitious setting.

Any resemblance to persons living, dead, or reanimated is coincidental. The opinions expressed are those of the characters and should not be confused with the author's, since the characters and the author tend to disagree a lot.
