My campaign in Thera, a few suggestions to FASA and help required about the Marac province
Posted: Mon Dec 23, 2019 11:14 am
Hi all, I'm an Italian Earthdawn player since the 1st edition ("Earthdawn forever, baby!") and I recently started a Theran campaign as game master, most of my players are not so fond of the Theran yoke, but we are visiting Thera and its provinces ...
I suggest to FASA to revisit Marac too: it is an interesting province where Theran vision of the world strangely adapted to local mysticism. Several topics were left out of "The Theran Empire" sourcebook, for instance Maracan Passions, while Creana revolves around hundreds of them and Vagothia lost its own in a titanic struggle agains Horrors: do you have any suggestion about what Maracan Passions should look like? Other things left out are Dragons and Jinari origins. Earthswallower, a Vasgothian Great Dragon, mentions Jinarimaker: I think it is a Great Dragon and Jinari creator, an Elementalist and Nethermantic genius, given Jinari overpowered abilities. He wanted to create self-perpetuating servants through Elementals and partially succeeded, since Jubruqs are infertile and short-lived. Drakes, on the other hand, cannot sire offsprings, a part for a half-drake half-Human hybrid girl maybe (I hope FASA will speak more of the lab in Creana where Aardelea was studied by Therans ...)
About my campaign: two Vasgothians, a House Zanjan Troll Weaponsmith, aligned to the Empire and a Human Warrior, interested in recovering lore about their Lost Passions (maybe in the Creanan Horror-infested tomb of a former High Initiate, turned Malek follower and now Wormskull ...). The last two characters are apparently a Wizard and a Nethermancer Human Adepts but Jubruq half-brothers in truth, searching for their Jinari father, trapped and smuggled out of Marac. Maybe to a Talean fabrika if I am able to bear the laughable Talean Names (should you go back to Talea too, PLEASE ask an Italian about Names that do not only sound right to non-Italians, I am at your disposal ...).
