What if kings, queens, and lords were bound to the magical and political authority of religious factions in their territory? In fact, what if the religious authority were themselves the rulers of the land?

​

This high-fantasy realm is inspired by the political, religious, and resource-centric worlds of Game of Thrones and Dune. Similarly, it adapts real-life instances of religious authority from across human history. From Catholic rule over Rome and the Oracle at Delphi's influence in Greece, to the Ganden Phodrang Tibetan monks, a blend of fantastical and historical religious structures creates a unique world for our campaign.

​

There are 6 nations in Deldarra, each of which control a unique resource and have their own theocratic (or religiously beholden) government. The nations, by resource, are as follows: Moonstone, Reed, Salt, Silver, Obsidian, and Hawthorne Berry. Their differences (and similarities) will be made clearer in the future, but you can click the map to see which regions they control.

On this site, I have designed a quiz which may help you get started in placing your character in the world. Whether you have a fully fleshed-out idea, or you feel open to any idea at all, my hope is that this quiz will provide you with a starting point to move seamlessly into Deldarra. The quiz will place you in one of the six categories listed above. You are not bound to that category if another one interests you more, but I think this is fun either way. Good luck, traveler!
