New page

== Quickly Adapting to Quelmar ==
Running a one-shot, a new RPG system, or a story in Quelmar and aren't sure how to quickly place it in the realm? Here's some guidance.

* Quelmar is '''flat and curved''' like an upside-down dinner plate.
* If you are telling a [[BR|fantasy]] [[PR|story]] (and not a modern one), then the sky is '''Red'''.
* If you are telling a [[CR|modern story]] (and not a fantasy one), then the sky is '''Blue''' and magic is '''[[Fracturing of the Weave|rare and seemingly nonexistent]]'''.
* There is a [[The Feywild|single moon in the night sky]], and many, many constellations.
* There are 6 Creator Gods who have gone by many names over the millennia. They created the world and have always watched over it.
** '''[[Garl Glittergold]]''', who created the '''[[Gnome|gnomes]]'''.
** '''[[Gruumsh]]''', who created the '''[[Orc|orcs]]'''.
** '''[[Mielikki]]''', who created the '''[[Dryad|dryads]]'''.
** '''[[Moradin]]''', who created the '''[[Dwarf|dwarves]]'''.
** '''[[Obad-Hai]]''', who created the '''[[Centaur|centaurs]]'''.
** '''[[Pelor]]''', who created the '''[[Rakshasa (Player Race)|rakshasa]]'''.
* The biggest city in the world is '''[[Galik]]'''.
* Large-scale stories are often defined by '''[[List of Major Conflicts|their wars]]''', whether they take place during a war, or explore the prologues or epilogues to these great conflicts.
* Small-scale stories often explore singular [[Ymbtrymman|towns]], [[Sneerwell|cities]], or [[Orche-Astere|areas]], and are excellent for world-building a very small part of the greater realm.
* Quelmar’s central conflict has been with '''[[Tiamat]]''', who arose to kill the creator gods long ago in '''[[the Holy War]],''' only to be banished and return 800 years later to '''[[The War of Many Names|start a second war]]'''. The second war eventually damages the realm irreversibly, causing everything to come to an end 600 years after the second war.
* The very center of the realm is Tiamat’s home-base, an land called '''[[Kiston]]''', and for most of the realm’s history, wasn’t thought to be an island but a deadly whirlpool. Whether Kiston is well known, rumored, or unheard of, it always prevents any easy travel diagonally in the realm.

== Quick Adaption Cheat Sheet ==
If you are super short on time, use one of the following lists to quickly grab a person, place, or thing to establish yourself in Quelmar.
