Time to Set Sail
« on: April 22, 2021, 05:41:19 PM »
I will use this thread to detail general knowledge and set up the campaign.  You can ask questions (not about each others characters specifically).

As is evident by the title of the thread, you will be starting as you all board a ship.

My character entire life has been spent in one place, with only one duty!  So there aren't many questions

I actually made Rano with the intention of being part of the Cult Hunters.  Do we need a third character by next week?  I thought we had some time.

No, next week will continue the Ekrudians.  After that, we will move to one of the other groups.

As you consider characters for these to groups, keep to the young theme and keep in mind races that are more common to this part of the world.

Also keep in mind that character in these two other groups need to fit with the existing mentality of the group, which is very different: warrior hunters vs. quiet peaceful.

I have ideas if someone needs inspiration, message me.

What are the predominant races in Kathow? Besides Horarian.

Horarian is the majority, probably three quarters of the population if not more.

Humans likely next largest.

No other races are widespread in the nation, but there are a few that have long lived there.

Sakor'akai have long lived there, even before the dragons were hunted.

No other major races have settlements to themselves, but there are pilgrims that have arrived and most races can be found.  There are exceptions, as almost no orc would make the voyage.  Gremlins never adhere to Quan Yin and could not stand the nation's rules.  Giants couldn't sail here.  There is no known underdark, so no Drow, Crystal Dwarves, and such.

I would have thought Sakor’aki would be the 3rd largest after Horarian/all other humans.

They are, that's why they were listed individually.
