Terra Gothica

Here's an overview of my Terra Gothica TTRPG setting.

"The history of Terra Gothic is the same as ours, until the year 1850. The same wars were fought, the new world was being colonized, and Europe was experiencing growth in industry. But from this point on, something changed.
Elves were spotted in the forests of Germany along with other Faerie races and creatures from folk lore. Dragons long rumored to be only fairy tales were spotted in the skies from time to time.
In 1851 dwarves started mining operations in the new world. Dwarven prospectors started showing up in California. By 1855, New York City was home to not just human settlers, but everything from gnomes to tieflings began to arrive on boats.
Magic actually started to work on Earth. Magicians couldn’t compete with actual sorcerers and wizards."

I've been playing more with my idea to create a D&D setting based on the Victorian era. I think the cutoff year will be 1850, before electricity, cars, modern guns, and modern medicine take over. A couple others have tried this idea, but I don't like where they took things.

I probably won't release this project to the public, it's more for my own homebrew fun. Researching and watching Period Piece movies is half the fun of working on this project. I've been looking at old maps of Europe and New York City, looking at old drawings, and thoroughly getting distracted from actually writing anything down.

Who knows where this will go. Maybe nowhere, or maybe a one-shot adventure set in New York, or a frontier fort. And how will elves, dwarves, magic, dragons, etc. play a role in this alt-history world?

Poor doggies. I wish I could adopt some.

I'm so fucking done with family. I really wish we could choose them. But we can choose to leave them behind, thank god for that.
The birds are out singing this morning. It really feels like spring has arrived
Arghhh, I don't know why Friendica is so damn difficult. I moved everything over to a new server, chowned the storage directory to www-data, and all the images are blurry. Why must you be like this Friendica????
I will be issuing follow requests again today to try to fix issues with Friendica.
I had a dream about my dad's dog. It was being attacked by a bear and a cougar at the same time. I couldn't get my gun loaded and had to scare them off by yelling. What a stupid and weird dream.

My dad's real dog actually died from a cougar attack a few years ago. Poor thing.
Good boy. #dogs

I don't like talking to them either. 🤷‍♀️

Iranian foreign minister says "we don't see any reason why we should talk with Americans"

FB feels so draining. Bluesky and the Fediverse are so relaxing. Opening Friendica is like getting home from work on a Friday.
Please fedi devs, someone make a good marketplace. It's still the only things keeping me on FB.
I think I'll stock up on some cheap foods now before things get bad.

Awwww, #americans opinions of #canada is way down according to gallup polls. Let me go find a quiet place to cry about it. 🤣

Yea, Canada has always been cool with me. Pisses me off what's going on. Now I feel like I can't go to Canada anymore.

Unless you are wearing the orange turds gear or spreading your "exceptionalism" you will be greeted warmly

It is getting BACK in your country that will be the issue

"Gallup" polls (or any other polls) mean nothing. They exist to sway public opinion or stir the shit, nothing more. Not much different from the media companies.
A real leader would have admitted fault for the school bombing in Iran, and apologized. I wonder what it's like having zero empathy or self-awareness. Was the orange idiot born with parts of his brain missing?
Happy Mario Day!
Damn... some analysts are predicting $2/litre gas. 🫣
"Meta Ray-Ban users’ most private moments captured on smart glasses may not be staying between you and the AI, a report has said. An investigation by two Swedish newspapers has revealed that a hidden workforce of thousands in Kenya is manually reviewing and labeling all the video feeds to “train” Meta’s next generation of artificial intelligence (AI). The content that they are reviewing includes people using the toilet, undressing and engaging in intimate acts." - India Times
Holy smokes Friendica has been offline for ages. Anyway, it's back, because I missed the Fediverse.
Whoever was knocking at my door, I was busy 🚽😅
