How many fantasy worlds are there anyways? Post one.

Should the numbers be one higher? (There were two #81).

Edited my last post to 85.

Should the numbers be one higher? (There were two #81).

Maybe, maybe not. Synnibarr has a rep and may cause eye twitching

Immortal horseman fighting boogieman from the past. It works.

87 Arcanis 2001. Started out a 3.0 OGL setting, moved on to 3.5, then its own system, then 5e.

Featured a magical Rome like empire, neat dwarf giant history, serpent people, fiend touched area, and a powerful sorcerer ruled land. Lots of development of god specific classes and psionics.

Shades, I would suggest compiling a list of these in the bottom of the first post and updating semi-regularly so people can know if the world they are thinking of has been referenced without going through each page of the thread.

88 Avadnu 2002. The setting behind the products from Inner Circle Games, now Waywalker Studios. They have a really good evocatively fleshed out 3.5 bestiary with fantastic art.

89. Mouse Guard. Based on the comic (2006 - ). (Mouse Guard Role Playing Game; 1ed. 2009?; 2ed. 2015?)

90. Azeroth (Warcraft RPG, 2003; World of Warcraft RPG, 2005). Based on the Blizzard video game series.

 

[Tun Kai Poh]

80. Midgard (2013, but probably sooner)

Midgard

A dark fantasy roleplaying world of deep magic, inspired by the myths and folklore of Eastern and Central Europe. Visit today and learn more!

Arguably the most successful 3rd party 5e setting and run by the legendary Wolfgang Bauer, former chief editor of dragon magazine, it's a dark fantasy world with a few unique twists. It also includes the southlands which is a strange africa/arabia mix.

I first heard of Midgard as a PF setting, but it's had a 13th Age bestiary too. Definitely worth exploring in any of those systems.

91. Slayers (Big Eyes Small Mouth version, 1999; d20 version, 2003). Based on the anime series.

92. The city of Manifest (Ghostwalk, D&D campaign setting, 2003).
