Since I don&#8217;t have time to run a game and the world needs another fantasy RPG supplement like it needs more Nazis, I thought I&#8217;d share it with you guys.<\/p>\n<p>My usual process for a fantasy world is to start with the big picture and work inward, but I&#8217;m going to try something a little different here. I&#8217;m going to start with distinct elements of the world (people, places, things) and branch out from there. So, for example, this entry caused me to add two items to my list of possible Things In The World: The Lusty Minotaur and Zeldarian Steel (and by association Zeldar\/Zeldaria\/Zeldarland). The Lusty Minotaur will probably come sooner, because right now I&#8217;m going to focus on the &#8220;starting point&#8221; city, which I&#8217;ve decided to call &#8220;The City of 10,000 Daggers&#8221; (it might or might not have a briefer name, I haven&#8217;t decided).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.worldanvil.com\/w\/city-of-ten-thousand-daggers-kingyak\/a\/lars-bloodsword-article\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>View at World Anvil<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n       .errordiv { padding:10px; margin:10px; border: 1px solid #555555;color: #000000;background-color: #f8f8f8; width:500px; }#advanced_iframe {visibility:visible;opacity:1;vertical-align:top;}.ai-info-bottom-iframe { position: fixed; z-index: 10000; bottom:0; left: 0; margin: 0px; text-align: center; width: 100%; background-color: #ff9999; padding-left: 5px;padding-bottom: 5px; border-top: 1px solid #aaa } a.ai-bold {font-weight: bold;}#ai-layer-div-advanced_iframe p {height:100%;margin:0;padding:0}<\/style><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var ai_iframe_width_advanced_iframe = 0;var ai_iframe_height_advanced_iframe = 0;function aiReceiveMessageadvanced_iframe(event) {  aiProcessMessage(event,\"advanced_iframe\", \"true\");}if (window.addEventListener) {  window.addEventListener(\"message\", aiReceiveMessageadvanced_iframe);} else if (el.attachEvent)  {  el.attachEvent(\"message\", aiReceiveMessageadvanced_iframe);}var aiIsIe8=false;var aiOnloadScrollTop=\"true\";var aiShowDebug=false;\r\n\t\tif (typeof aiReadyCallbacks === 'undefined') {\r\n\t\t\tvar aiReadyCallbacks = [];  \r\n\t\t} else if (!(aiReadyCallbacks instanceof Array)) {\r\n\t\t\tvar aiReadyCallbacks = [];\r\n\t\t}    function aiShowIframeId(id_iframe) { jQuery(\"#\"+id_iframe).css(\"visibility\", \"visible\");    }    function aiResizeIframeHeight(height) { aiResizeIframeHeight(height,advanced_iframe); }    function aiResizeIframeHeightId(height,width,id) {aiResizeIframeHeightById(id,height);}<\/script><iframe id=\"advanced_iframe\"  name=\"advanced_iframe\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.worldanvil.com\/w\/city-of-ten-thousand-daggers-kingyak\/a\/lars-bloodsword-article\"  width=\"100%\"  height=\"600\"  frameborder=\"0\"  allowtransparency=\"true\"  loading=\"lazy\"  style=\";width:100%;height:600px;\" ><\/iframe><script type=\"text\/javascript\">var ifrm_advanced_iframe = document.getElementById(\"advanced_iframe\");var hiddenTabsDoneadvanced_iframe = false;\r\nfunction resizeCallbackadvanced_iframe() {}<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maybe it&#8217;s the never-ending D&amp;D review (though I think it might have more to do with Leighton and I having a long fanboy discussion about Lankhmar \u00a0at DieCon) but lately I&#8217;ve been itching to do some fantasy world-building.
