A World of Gothic Horror


At its very heart, Baeleris is a Gothic Horror Setting. Darkness and mystery are central elements of my worldbuilding, and the sprawling city of Ravenspire is a haunting homage to the macabre. Baeleris is a world about shadowy alleys, towering spires, and ancient secrets. It’s about decadency, moral decay, intrigue, and treachery. Ghosts and vampires are way more present here, then dragons or ogres–or even orcs.

Victorian Age Technology


Baeleris features Victorian Age technology! The technology level is based on the real world in 1895, and there are unique and new armor rules, including the respective materials and items! The starting kits for classes have been reworked, and a lot of tools and gadgets were added to the merchants. And there is even more! The continent Mechanika features Steampunk-elements, which will add even more options!
