KARTHARKA
Lair of Sword and Sorcery can be played with any world you like, or one you create yourself.
But it's made to be run with a low magic world of high adventure sword and sorcery. And have we got a world for you, ready for adventure!
The world of Kartharka! Born in the fire of the Demon wars and destroyed in the cataclysms of the great Sorcery wars.
The seasons of the world are now locked in endlessly in their own parts of the world, from the Freezing Winterlands in the north to the scorched deserts of the Summerlands to the south.
The game world mostly revolves around the Winterlands, home of the freemen. Free from the rule of the Black Emperor, supreme ruler of the rest of Kartharka.
The background history of the world of Kartharka can be found in the issues of LoSS magazine and include the government, laws, history and regions of the world of Kartharka.
The focus of the world of Kartharka has been primarily on the free Winterlands to the North as they are the areas where a bold heart and a strong sword arm are most likely to earn your hero fame and fortune.
The Winterlands
The home of most characters, the Winterlands are the the Freelands of Kartharka.
A wilderness of snow full of hidden secrets from the history of the world.
Even this heavily poplulated area contains vast areas of unmapped and forgotten places.
Stroh-Branoch
The largest city of the Winterlands and the seat of the most powerful governing families. The destination for all aspiring heroes!
