Introduction:
Welcome to Obruvia, a world where primeval forests grow on ruins of forgotten machines, where air pirates and alchemists hunt for lost Aevari technology, and where the earth beneath your feet still shimmers with ancient power.
This original homebrew setting, exclusive to ToTH, combines mysterious steampunk elements with classic fantasy. Ideal for players seeking adventure, exploration and technomagic.
Setting & Lore:
Centuries ago, the Aevari ruled, a people of living machines, spirit cores and limitless power. Their civilisation disappeared under a sea of roots, stone and time, but their legacy lives on.
Today, four factions fight for power in Ruvoa's Anchor, a city on the edge of the impenetrable Myrrhwood forests:
- The Aviation Guild: Masters of Aether's Spindle, the floating city above the clouds.
- The Sanctum of Ruvoa: Archivists and mages trying to unravel forgotten Aevari secrets.
- The Smugglers of the Deep Spores: Hunting for lost technology.
- The Cultists of the Sleeping Titan: Believing that ancient machine-gods will one day awaken...
But deep in the forests, forgotten gears move. Beneath the earth, ancient engines spin. And high above, floating wrecks full of unknown cargo circle...
