Alantor

Alantor is a warrior nation, fuelled by honour and a distinct code of chivalry to protect the innocent and uphold the law. Total faith in the monarchy to keep them safe is compounded by a devout faith in their deity Victirus, who many believe has blessed their king Ralor with eternal life.

Although the nation is strong and the people feel safe, two evils plague the nation. The first is a long time enemy which rose three thousand years ago, the lycanthropus of the under realm known as Urmona.

Another powerful enemy was once hero of Alantor, Salithria, corrupted by the void her demonic form a far cry from the human she once was. Her sister, Selena married Ralor as his first wife, and is the mother to his children, she has since passed, her death at the hands of her sister.

Exemplar SummaryAdventurer

An exemplar is divine warrior who pledges themselves to their deity by taking part in a ceremony and reciting an oath. Exemplar fighting styles vary by deity and region, all are well trained by their order in the use of their deities chosen weapon and various armours. Exemplars are trained to seek out the enemies of their deity, they join adventuring parties where goals align, or they will form parties under the promise of riches to fulfil their deities commands.

Exemplar's oaths are sworn before a suitable individual or within an organisation that is connected to their deity, failure to adhere to the oath by performing an opposing action, will result in them being discharged of it. Should this become discharged; they will lose their divine power and become an oath breaker. Opposing actions vary from one deity to another.

Crusader SummaryChampion

A crusader is an exemplar chosen by their deity to pursue a grand quest expected to take many years, perhaps decades, all the while they are away from home and expected to uphold their oath. A crusader proudly wears a pristine long white robe adorned with the emblems of their deity, this robe will become a tapestry of their heroic deeds over the years, a history of great deeds and proof to other of the strength of their conviction, each night the robe is cleaned and blessed.

Crusaders are familiar with almost all weapons, with such a time spent questing is inevitable that they find and practise with, or use out of convenience, a huge range of weaponry. A crusader's quest is often rallied against a singular threat, be it against another deity or the ever present power, the void, only when an adversary of sufficient power is vanquished will they begin the journey home.

 Avenger

AvengerAdventurer

An avenger is a leader that has suffered catastrophic loses, their entire party has fallen, they are alone. Blaming themselves for a failure of leadership, they forsake their role as a leader and set out on a quest for revenge on those that slayed their friends and comrades. Revenge is not possible alone, but they wont lead a party so they are forced to join one likely to encounter the same forces that brought the leaders former party, and should they find a group, guide them.

Avenger must of course be of use to the new party, so they hone their martial skills and train a variety of weapons to make it more likely to fit into a suitable party. Only after taking their revenge and bringing peace to their own troubled mind, and the souls of their friends, can the avenger rest, and only when they have rested will they be ready to join a party once more as a leader.

Avenger is a deviation class available to any Leader under specific conditions.

Leader SummaryAdventurer

A leader is able to direct their allies during any encounter, using their great intuition, meticulous planning and innate strategy, the leader can call out specific actions which their allies will be able to take, the perfectly times shot, strike or even just positioning can change the course of the encounter in their favour. Capable of fighting themselves a leader can use most weapon types and can wear any armour or shield, and can call out their allies actions even while deep in combat.

Leaders form parties to achieve a specific goal, some to seek out riches in the dark places of the world, and some will have been commissioned by authorities or individuals to complete task on their behalf. If a party works well together then they can often continue and seek out more work or start their own adventure, an adventuring party needs at least one leader capable character.

A theurgist is a priest who has been chosen by their deity to lead a group stop a encroaching evil, first they train hard to improve their martial skills while gathering a party of powerful champions, then they undergo a ritual to receive a blessing. Once the theurgist and their party are ready, they set off towards the distant evil in an attempt to defeat it before it causes harm to the citizens of their nation. Now a decisive leader, able combatant, divine hero and powerful spellcaster.

Theurgist who get repeatedly chosen may no longer return to the role of priest, ever more seeking out those that are plaguing their parish, only when too old will they retire and take up a position guiding the next theurgist. If a long time theurgist becomes a champion they become known as a Doombringer, a martial focused priest who will continue to seek out and destroy the forces of evil.

Priest SummaryAdventurer

A priest is divine spellcaster that channels the power of their deity in the service of that deity. Joining a temple when young to receive teaching and training, those lucky to be chosen to become priests are charged to perform tasks that align with their chosen deities persona, many will form or join parties to undertake quests, some will join military forces to defend or attack in their deities name, others go it alone, using whatever means they can to achieve their mission.

Priests can consecrate an area or call forth divine energy to smite their foes, summon divine shields to ward off physical blows and channel divine energy into their melee or ranged weapons or to heal the wounds of their allies. The longer a priest follows their chosen deity and performs actions that follow their persona, the more powerful the priest will become.

Ship Class:Alantorian SeneschalThe seneschal of Alantor is a ship that Ralor Massif requires all his major landholding subjects to construct and maintain. This construction is subsidised by the crown, although it is not uncommon for many of the highest ranking nobles to customise it with modifications. The Seneschal, as its name implies is a mostly defensive ship; it is designed to patrol the coastal waters of Alantor.

[ Approx: 50 ]

Ship Class:Alantorian VictoryThe Victory, is one of the most eponymous of Alantor warships. Designed to charge full tilt at the enemy lines and deliver the killing blow to left and to right of it. Its commanders despite what you might first imagine are not impetuous youngbloods seeking greater glory for themselves, but seasoned veterans, who realise that a fast attack is often the key to breaking an enemy?s spirit and forcing them from the field, and in the process saving your own subjects from certain destruction. The victory itself is a solid-looking ship with thick armour and two decks or ominous looking weaponry stowed beneath the decks.

Ship Class:Alantorian DrakeslayerThe Drake-Salyer is sleeker than one would expect of most Alantor ships, designed to engage in aerial combat against foes such as drakes. Its ballista is forged in the city of Berkit and blessed by the priests of Victirus in that city. The final result is designed as a sleek vessel for a lord or other to take the fight to the enemies of Victirus and the Grand alliance.

The mage can not wear any armour as anything more than cloth causes arcanum to discharge and they must maintain empty hands with the exception of a wizards staff or rod.

Mages can manipulate objects to launch attacks using whatever is around, from boulders to shards of glass, similarly they can block incoming attacks by moving objects to intercept. They are the primary source for magical trinkets that enhance the wearers abilities by infusing materials such as gold and silver in the form or rings or amulets.

Arcanist SummaryChampion

An arcanist is a mage that after decades of study have unlocked a new level of power, finding out new ways to harness the arcane forces and do previously impossible things with it. Only a few mages will reach this level so they often end up as the head of an mage order, academic institution or prominent advisory positions of small councils and other inner circles. Their staff is part of the process to unlocking greater powers, formed from solidified arcanum, topped with an arcane crystal.

Arcanists continue to study the arcane, there is always more to learn, sometimes their research will require venturing to far off lands, dangerous nations and monster infested wilderness. To do this they will join or form a party of other champions, for glory or gold. Arcanists are often sought out due to their renown ability to teleport great distances.

ABOUT US

THE CONCEPTION

Terrainia started off in 2004 as a single island for a role-playing game (using a well-known and popular third edition rule set). This island became wonderfully detailed, players would recognise who they were dealing with when suitable miniatures (made by another well-known table-top games company) were placed on the table. But eventually the players finished the campaign, and managed to slay the dragon, or so they thought.

So with the campaign over, but the desire to continue burning ever bright, further areas were designed and planned, and over the course of five long but enjoyable years the world grew exponentially. At its peak of these five years there were six regular groups, around forty players, two dungeon masters, and a world as large as Earth drawn up and with huge levels of detail.

THE EVOLUTION

While that is where Terrainia was born, now twenty-one years on and the development hasn’t stopped, we began to construct this website in 2010 as a resource for our players to use. Then in 2020 (during the world wide pandemic), our founder took the opportunity to flesh out the world even more and add this to the website, during which thoughts turned to sharing Terrainia with the rest of the world.

It was at this time that the founder began to commission artists. Budgets were low, and it took time to find the right artists with the right style. But over the next few years, the main cast got made: the deities, the primary heroes and villains, then monsters. It was important for the founder that all artwork was theirs, monster design was theirs, and in turn, game systems were theirs — we did not want to copy or reproduce existing systems.

Along with the game world, contributors are writing novels and designing games, all set within Terrainia. At the time this page was last updated, there were no fewer than seven different games/books in production. Soon we will have links to these games/books for you to immerse yourselves within.

So that’s us. We hope you enjoy the site. If you want to give us some feedback, why not .

THE FUTURE

After this first wave of games and books, who knows? But one thing is for sure: there is plenty of material, and our aim will be to share this world with as many fantasy fans as possible.
