A Savage Worlds fantasy campaign

TitanSkeleton.png

The Saga So Far...[edit]

Our heroes reach the northern nation of Igenfrost, accompanying a trade caravan.

The World[edit]

The Nations of the North

The Northern Nations are a couple dozen small areas, none larger than a smallish US state or European country. Some are traditional clan holdings; others are centered around rogue Empire military forces that chose to claim land in their own name, or single cities ruled by popular demagogues. They trade, fight, and ally with each other, united by a complicated web of alliances, betrayals, family linkages and trade agreements, and every so many years one nation is conquered by another, or breaks free again.

  • Igenfrost is one of the more stable and northern-most of the Nations, set right in the foothills of the Last Mountains. It is ruled by Justiciar Tulth, an enormous warrior and devout follower of the sun goddess Bright Galda.

The Empire of the Sun

The Empire of the Sun is a vast, human-dominated empire that controls the southern two-thirds of the continent. Formerly an aggressive colonizer, it has slowed down in recent decades and is showing signs of decay. Within another century it may be gone, but for the moment it remains strong. The Empire has a cautious relationship with the Northern Nations, deeming them too problematic to conquer and for the most part trading with them. The Empire is viewed by the Northerners as powerful, dangerous, and untrustworthy, but also a provider of exotic southern goods and valuable foodstuffs.

The Last Mountains

The Last Mountains form the final border between inhabitable land and the howling arctic wastes beyond; some small, hardy communities of dwarves and firbolgs live among them, but common knowledge is that no one lives beyond them except cold-adapted animals and occasional monsters.

Setting Rules[edit]

  • Heroic Resilience: Wild Cards get a free natural healing roll at the end of any scene in which they take one or more wounds. This roll cannot heal wounds than were not taken in that scene.
  • High Adventure: Spend a Benny to gain the one-time use of a Combat Edge.
  • Unarmored Hero: Wild Cards without armor add +2 to their Soak rolls.
  • Wound Cap: Wild Cards never suffer more than four wounds from a single hit.
