The Realms of Aorlis Fantasy Setting

Created by


The Realms of Aorlis Fantasy Setting is designed for epic adventure, brutal combat, daring exploration, and intrigue. It is good equally for old-fashioned, crunchy dungeon crawls, or the sweeping narrative campaigns that are more common these days. Every country, city, random encounter, and supporting character is loaded with adventure hooks.  
If you think tales based on medieval Europe are all played out, you would be so very wrong. Aorlis doesn’t rehash the same old fantasy tropes that are repeated ad nauseam in books, games, movies and television.   Aorlis is a living world, full of interconnectivity and rich detail. It is based on Olde Worlde charm and flavor, and it works wonderfully for high fantasy, low fantasy, cozy fantasy, grimdark fantasy, and even full-on gothic horror. Our own world is different things to different people, and so too is Aorlis.   The Realms of Aorlis Fantasy Setting was developed by an avid medieval historian, and his research on the period’s social, religious, economic, occult and mythological roots will redefine your relationship with the Middle Ages. Aorlis is not Middle Earth or Westria.   The finest tool in Aorlis is its customized random events and encounters charts that draw characters into ongoing or existing plots, introduce new non-player characters, and mysteries begging to be solved.   The Realms of Aorlis is a system-agnostic setting that works with any fantasy table-top role-playing game. Choose your game of choice, and Aorlis is ready to run.
