The fantasy world of So’Var is a place in which half the world is covered in a barrier of hurricanes, waterspouts, torrential rains, and rogue tsunamis, referred to as the Unknown Seas. The northern hemisphere of the planet is where most of the people live, and the stories occur, scattered around the different continents.
Those that live in the countryside, be it in hamlet, or town, the people are conscious of the ever present danger of Beast attacks, and roaming groups of Unliving. Even amid these dangers, people make their way as best as they can, knowing that any day, could be their last.
The sharp contrast to the dangerous life of those in most of the world, are the Arcane Cities. Cities so heavily influenced, and supported, by the magic and the universities they contain, that the cities have become something more modern through magic. Hot, running water. Transportation systems. Healers and medicine. The Arcane Cities have it all, for a price.
Below I am going to introduce you to some of the aspects of So’Var. Starting with; The Avin’dar.
