Shennray
In the beginning, Cottlud the Dreamer had a dream. In it he dreamed up five worlds of endless beauty and intrigue, and inhabited them with plethora of noble creatures. Cottlȗd sought peace of mind as it was weary and tired, but through his restless mind, darkness found its way into his dreams.
Trying to protect its Great Dream from the Nightmare, Cottlȗd created seven servants, Primordial Eidolons, the Children of Creation, and gave them the form of dragons. Their burden was to keep the Nightmare away, protect and nurture the Great Dream. Seeing that its restless thoughts were fueling the Nightmare, Cottlȗd departed from its dream and fell into an eternal, dark, dreamless slumber.
Shennray is a fantasy world which evolves in time; through high-powered fantasy of the Age of Mythos, scattered and tribal realms of the Age of Anguish, recovery and rediscovery of the Age of Resurgence, or take to the stars in the retrofuturistic Age of Liberation.
The campaign setting has been in development since mid-2000's, aided by joint efforts of several experienced DMs. It has been on hiatus since 2015 due to life circumstances but now it is making a return. I am revisiting old notes and documents, editing out the parts that don't fit; all in an attempt to deliver a living, breathing world that isn't forever set in high medieval age but follows the growth and fall of civilizations.
