The land of Lotharingia was once one of the more stalwart and dependable of the Wenigzustand, but long gone are those days. When the Third Imperium was falling apart it did so primarily on the doorstep of Lotharingia. The heroic lords of this place faced the full fury of a waning empire and won. While … Continue reading Infamous Villains: The Fallen Knights of Lotharingia

The Decline and Fall of the Third Imperium; Part 1
There was no more prominent or influential political, cultural, and military power on the current state of affairs in Domum than that of the Third Imperium. A massive empire that spanned virtually all of the continent of Partum as well as great swaths of two other continents (Tantam to the east and Arcanum to the … Continue reading The Decline and Fall of the Third Imperium; Part 1
Continental Excursions; Lotharingia
One of the most heavily populated and consistently bothersome countries in the Wenigzustand is the kingdom of Lotharingia. The title itself is deceptive as the land has no king and hasn't had such a ruler in a number of decades. What Lotharingia does have, however, is an abundance of red dragons, fallen knights, and what … Continue reading Continental Excursions; Lotharingia
Slothjemian Patriotism
In an age of loyalty to one's lord or king Slothjemia breaks the mold somewhat. Slothjemia is one of the few places in the world wherein the citizens are fiercely proud of the mere concept of their country. Whoever the ruler of the land happens to be doesn't much change the mood of the people … Continue reading Slothjemian Patriotism
Are You Ready for MORE Von Vorkel?
The fourth book in the Von Vorkel series is even now being scheduled for posting in this blog. I can feel your excitement from here. And that means only three more chapters to go in "Fight, Swear, Loathe" which places the conclusion of that story right before my daughter's birthday. Gonna be a heckuva week … Continue reading Are You Ready for MORE Von Vorkel?
A King says Farewell
The ruler of Fanolania, King Carloman, has finally given in to his elven spiritual urges, and is readying for his last journey on this world.

An Act of Unspeakable and Unprovoked Evil (less than 20 minutes of pure carnage)
The old adage that runs "an ancient evil long forgotten can prove to be the most disastrous" was proven beyond a shadow of a doubt when the Diosian Lodge reached out from their fetid, unholy realm and struck a blow against Fanolania through the horrific power of one of their own, the Viceroy, as he … Continue reading An Act of Unspeakable and Unprovoked Evil (less than 20 minutes of pure carnage)
Notable NPCs; Colonel Ulthar von Gheistler
Readers might recognize the description of Colonel Ulthar von Gheistler as fitting that curious band of powerful villains from the "Dragonlance" stories and the D&D gaming world of the same name, the fallen heroes known as "Death Knights." In many ways these fellows can be loosely described as being Darth Vader-ish in both appearance and mannerisms; … Continue reading Notable NPCs; Colonel Ulthar von Gheistler
Monarch’s Updated
The former kings of Slothjemia section has been updated to include Manfriedreich IV, the father of the current Empress, Reichsha. Sometime in the not too distant future she will also be added to the list. It should be noted that virtually all of the D&D games we played in college took place during the reign … Continue reading Monarch’s Updated
New Section, Old Kings
Added a new section the last couple of days and still fiddling with it to make it work. This will provide some more detail into past Kings of Slothjemia, which in turn will inspire more questions than it does provide answers. I find it comforting to turn to the old familiar things from time to … Continue reading New Section, Old Kings
