The Laws of S'ard

  • There is magic.
  • The magic of Janas and other creatures taps from nature and it's instinctive.
  • Human magic needs a conduit for it often in the form of cantos (songs) and brebus (rhymes). This consumes the emotional energy of the caster. Traditionally, its lore is transmitted among women of the family, but not exclusively.
  • Cosmology

    S'ard is set in an alternate Earth setting, undistinct from our world. In some areas, sustainable way of living has become predominant so expect reclaimed patches of desert, larger forests, and clean waters. There are still areas where the destruction of the environment carried on and in some instances is even worse than in our world, altough localized. Expect larger contrast in general as both ways of life become extreme in their vision.

    Initial Active Setting

    The initial setting will be Onfalu's island, the modern Sardinia. Once that is fleshed out, I will move to other areas of the Mediterranean sea to detail the countries and areas which with Onfalu has the major relations.
