Earth

Mood

Close your eyes for a moment and think of the color GREEN. What do you see in your mind's eye and what do you feel?

Nature, lush landscapes, meadows, forests, fertile earth, hope, calm, serenity?

This green, positive and bright mood meets a growing nature and lush landscapes on the continent of the earth element. Did you know that the origin of the word green comes from the Old Germanic "ghro" which means to grow and flourish?
The element earth forms the tangible basis and provides stability. Since ancient times, the earth has been represented by female deities, as only in them can life grow. Growth and decay are important cycles of life and nature.

Theme, Scene & People

The continent of the earth element is inspired by the forests and meadows of the northern hemisphere. It is a world of spiritual magic in meadows and forests.
Landscapes such as flower-hill-heights, moos rock, a mining valley, the blue gorge/mountains, crane meadows, the forest of a thousand lights, stalactite caves with laboratories, a forest of giant flowers, lakes of lights, magic mushroom meadows, greenlings and the large tremlling giants bear witness to the power of nature.
Along with giants and trolls, goblins are the main humanoid species. In Ireland and Germanic mythology, goblins tend to belong to the lower classes. They are not particularly popular in the fantasy world or evolved into reptilian humanoids as kobolds.

Dear DnD developers, Kobold is the German word for goblin and I find it horrible. It must finally stop! Here the ethnic groups of the goblins are influenced by Celtic and Germanic influences as well as the life of the Native Americans.

Their language is based on Celtic languages such as Gaelic and Welsh mixed with Old English spelling.

The basic idea is a deep connection to Mother Earth, where they were born from her womb. Cultures emerged that consciously shape and perceive their environment. Visions, spirituality, totems are just as much a part of it as a life in harmony with nature. Magic and reality are connected by a veil. They knew how to use this secret and rose to become the most important species on the Earth's continent.

Inspirations

Music

The music of the earth element sounds as if music from the Middle Ages meets Irish and Scottish sounds. Flutes, violins, drums paired with gentle harp playing invite you to dance or linger.

I love the music of Enya, Riverdance and Lord of Dance. When everything is mixed a little with epic, spherical sounds, I'm in my world.

The following pieces are shorter and partly contain vocals.

Movies, Series &

There are no films about goblins or none in which goblins play the main role. But there are still a lot of films and series whose content is inspiring for the continent of the world.
How to train your Dragon - Apart from the dragons, it's about friendship and solidarity, which is also reflected in the culture of the goblins.
The Last Kingdom - Great series about the kingdoms of England before William the Conqueror came to power. Even though the series often gets bloody, it's mainly about loyalty.
Vikings - Another great series that tells the story of the sometimes bloody conquests of the Vikings from Europe to America over several years, combining historical events with the myths and legends about Ragnar Lodbrok, his sons and the shield maiden Lagertha. Although equally gory, I put it on this list because I like the connection to the gods and myths.
Outlander - is a fantastic series/book about a woman who travels back 200 years in the Scottish Highlands, meets the love of her life and experiences some historical events of the 18th century in Scotland, France and America. There is so much inspiration here that I just had to mention it.
