Skein of Worlds:Main Page
This is an attempt to better organize and expand on the setting I started on the D&D message boards a long time ago. (Yes, I'm ArchmageOmega on that board.) I also have an old website at geocities.com/magi256/cosmology/, but I intend this page to be more up-to-date and complete. There's a (currently very short) thread on this on the rpg.net forums too. BTW, if you have a better name for this than Skein of Worlds, let me know. This is a work in progress, so if you have something to contribute, please say something. --MagiMaster
