No problem, I think the setting idea is really cool. Plus, I don't need to figure out how to make them work! ;) If you have dragons, you may want to consider what happens why they go into a hibernation from the cold weather. Perhaps they become a lot more lethargic, and raid less. Brave, and a...

1) That is sweet! 2)A few ideas: -hotsprings as 'points of light' -abandoned magma-tech stuff -loss of literacy as books and scrolls were too heavy to carry and were left behind as the races fled towards the equator (or wherever is warmest) -if you wanted the plane to power magic via leylines...

What caused you apocalypse? I'm growing tired of things like angels vs demons with earth as the battleground. Sure humanity (demi-humanity?) need to pick up the pieces and you have people trying to help rebuild and others just robbing to get by. You pretty much always have the re-builders vs the...

I find myself torn about XP. I think it is often unneeded. Especially in Pathfinder, which removed XP payments for crafting and powerful spells. However, XP functions as an excellent carrot on a stick. If you want to run a game with truly heroic PCs, awarding some extra XP for the behavior you...

I would just keep doing what you have been. Instead of awarding levels, you can award feats to the party.

Thanks for the fix. I googled "orrey" and got pictures so I figured I was spelling it right. I fixed it.

The Abandoned Orrery High atop the peaks of the Djard mountains, waiting in the crisp chill air is the Abandoned Orrery. No one knows who or what created it, but from those who have returned from the place speak of a great tower with a giant mechanism to track the movements of the Sun, Moon...

I can't speak for the pipe bag, but Marsbarn on Etsy makes some awesome dice bags. I got one last year for Christmas and I love it. You can even got custom fabrics if you email and speak with the owner. Here is a review of the bags: Click Me

Woops, I didn't pay attention to the original post date. But I'm glad to hear that your adventure went well.

There are the elves in the Dragon Age games too. At least Dragon Age Origins, the elves lost their immortality. They may help meet some of the things you want. As for the Orcs, Hobgoblins, etc check out the Eberron setting. The Orcs and Goblins had huge empires that fell before the rise of...

The book by Jenna Rhodes, The Four Forge, has dwarf-like people as the race for many of the protagonists. They call themselves Dwellers, and are shorter than most other races, but don't have the beards we associate with dwarves. The elves are long lived, but were transported to the world from...

I don't know any good maps, but Paizo does have the ship pack of Game Mastery mats and cards. This has the ship pack, interior ship pack to stack with it, and the flip mat for pirate ships. They may be able to help. As for the adventure being plot insignificant, I would just fast forward. It...

That is just cool. Awesome tweak for Krag-Tir, making the goddess much less good that I intended.

Krag-Tir, The Roaring Flame Krag-Tir is the goddess of magic and the sun. Her powers create and shape the leylines that provide natural magic and the winds of magic that provide arcane magic to mortals. Krag-Tir is known as the Roaring Flame because she manifests as the great circle of fire...

What about weakened gods? They are severely injured and cannot aid their followers as strongly, many of their followers would then be seeking ways to help the god recover. You could have a weakened god of strategy and magic. The god could have been overwhelmed by numbers or defeated by allies...

Are you looking to purposefully leave whole or overlap on domains/portfolios for the gods? I think you may want some patron gods to help fill out the ranks, 20-40 gods is a lot without crossing religions. Egyptian, Greek, and Norse have a lot of interesting gods. Mine them, then add patrons...

In this thread Communal Worldbuilding page 5 has a pantheon consolidation for what we've done so far. Some of them are pretty interesting, an Orc goddess who favors hippos and is a goddess of fertility- but others use her as a goddess of evil.

I find the National Geographic Photo of the Day archive to have a bunch of pictures that can inspire an area, a conflict location, and more. http://photography.nationalgeographic.com/photography/photo-of-the-day/ Subterranean Design has a lot of pictures to inspire...
