I’ve taken a break from writing over the past month and a half. Not a break from the blog though. I’ve been working on interlinking between all the pages I have for Cimmeria content. Now if you’re on the Bradel Fields page the first mention of Astyanax‘s name has a link to the Astyanax page. Through that, most of the pages are linked to others just like on Wikipedia. This should hopefully provide a more seamless browsing experience compared to using the menus to find more information on a particular character or place.

I’ve also started the campaign log editing I mentioned in October’s blog update. The first post is out, the second one should be coming in two weeks, and they should speed up going into May.

The Locations of Cimmeria section is almost complete. There’s only a few left and of course I’ve saved the most complicated for last. I should be wrapping those up in April, but they probably won’t post until June or July.

Finally, I have the podcast updates! I’ve recorded episodes to release into June, but I need to edit those as well. I’ll start contacting people for interviews again in May. I’m also likely nearing the end of DMs I can interview based off the first survey round. I plan on making fliers to post around my own town and hopefully other previous guests can put a flier up at their local game shops as well. I can also repost on Reddit to see if there’s more attention I can gain that way.

I’m Isaac

Welcome to the GoCorral website! I’m Isaac Shaker and this is a place for me to write about D&D and occasionally other topics. I host a podcast called Setting the Stage that interviews different DMs about their campaigns. I’m currently focused on completing the Cimmeria campaign setting and turning it into a book.

89 – Bunnies vs. the Borg D&D (Avery and Traumwald) Setting the Stage, Campaigns for D&D and Other RPGs

Avery presents her world of Traumwald which means Dream Forest. Traumwald was a peaceful, magical world inhabited by anthropomorphic animals of all kinds. Their peace was shattered by the attack of the Ichal, a biomechanical hive mind species similar to the Borg. The Ichal are led by the dark god Ulvakros who seeks to absorb all life into himself. The Ichal have spread across different dimensions and now they have come to Traumwald as the next stop on their mission of multiversal conquest.Traumwald has a D&D 5.0e supplement that Avery made. It's a setting and a campaign in one book. Species generation rules allow you to create any sort of animal species for your PC. There are lots of new subclasses to play and a new base class, the Ascetic. The campaign is adaptable with a dynamic faction system for tracking the events as they unfold at your table. Each campaign run in Traumwald is guaranteed to be different as the factions fluctuate and change to player actions. You can lift the faction system for your personal campaign as well!You can find Traumwald on Avery's itch.io page.Check out the Setting the Stage website!Want to be on the show?
