The Coldforge Campaign Setting

(Authors note: This is a collection of articles written over a period of time, mostly with little editing, to hold myself accountable to continue creating the world. Please forgive the bad grammar, the poor editing, and any other mechanical issues of the articles. They will be improved in the final product as I do repeated editing passes on the final product)

The Coldforge Campaign Setting is a cold and brutal setting of Magic, Wars, Elements, and Deities. Step forth, and experience the chill and power of fierce winters, elemental magic, and powerful nations.

Here are the articles that I wrote. They are organized according to topic, more or less. There are articles scattered throughout from 2014, 2019, and 2020. The excerpts are from 2021, but could still use some polish: Don’t take ’em as final. I have a ton to say, and really would love to hear anyones opinions on this.
