Title: Tales of Cydra
Author: the Jester
Number of Threads: 10 (see links below)
Type: D&D, running from 2nd edition to 3.5 and (eventually) beyond!
System: D&D, various editions, with occasional crossovers
Setting: Homebrew: Cydra. Cydra is a water world that takes place on the inside surface of a gargantuan air bubble some 780,000 miles in diameter.
Started: 25 July 2002 (first thread)
Status: Ongoing. Several threads are completed, but the story goes on.
Average Installment Length: Medium (approx. 1500 words).
Average Frequency of Installments: Weekly in each thread; often more frequent, occasionally less frequent.
Available for Download? No
Style: 3rd person narrative prose, with occasional winks to the underlying mechanics. There is a good amount of humor mixed with serious fantasy, horror, etc.
Overview: Much of the campaign world's focus is Law vs. Chaos, instead of the more typical Good vs. Evil. The various threads trace the evolution of the campaign since its inception (about 1994?), including many of the tales of both heroes and villains.
Reader Comment: "This is one of the better storyhours I've read. You have a very natural flow in your writing, it's easy and enjoyable to read and it also has a relatively original and entertaining flavour. I've never come across the concept of extradimentional colons and orca penis rings before." - Serpenteye
