The continent of Yamikora (d&d)

The continent of Yamikora

Its been nineteen years since the war ended. It took all the races to unite to push the dreaded undead Queen back into the lands of the bloody Moore. Ones that were pure and lawful had to cast aside their prejudice to work with those of chaos and disorder which in turn brought back balance into the fight. With heroes from each race being forged, dark truths about their people all spilled forth, and what was once thought as evil was changed and challenged. There are some who still hold grudges within city walls, however most common folk who suffered worst of all chose to burn the walls down and rebuild with whoever they could and set aside any animosity just to bring some sort of calm back into their lives and thus a new generation outside of those fortresses of ignorance was born.

There are still those who don't believe in mixing with those outside their own species, but those that have found themselves gaining more respect for others and thus the winds of change started to come. Those who had never seen an elf, giant, gnome, dwarf, orc.... Now all lived together, rebuilding a new social normality making those small towns and villagers stronger. As more now begin to leave the cities to venture outside, those within are now starting to feel the influence of change. True peace is unfolding.. though for how long, no one knows. 

Due to the current state of affairs of this post nerotic war world, mixed races, unusual races and homebrew races fit snuggly into it's beautiful fabric to create a world relying on one another to rebuild. Please remember that the DM has final say on what you can play at the table though personally as the DMs of this world (we have three gods overseeing it) we set pretty much no limit as we've been mixing some home brew and steamforged stuff into it too, giving Yamikora a more rich and diverse flavour!


Some small bits of fluff like the world's calander, time line ect for DM's that maybe stumped by players in regards to mini details players may ask about that you can use for extra flavour can be found here
