Mundo ritual, cruel y bello. Locura, alcohol, magia corrupta y dioses muertos reinan sobre HVØRAX.


Author's Note: UPDATE - v2 Este mundo no busca equilibrio, busca impacto. Cada raza tiene una deuda con los dioses, cada lugar una maldición y cada objeto una historia que sangra. Está pensado para partidas donde el tono sea oscuro, poético, brutal y simbólico. No es un mundo para “hacer lo correcto”, sino para sobrevivir con elegancia o caer con estilo. Recomendado para jugadores que disfrutan el rol emocional, el simbolismo y la improvisación psicomágica. Piensa en una mezcla de Berserk, Dark Souls, La Divina Comedia y Midsommar… con hidromiel alucinógena. - ENGLISH - Ritual, cruel and beautiful world. Madness, alcohol, corrupt magic and dead gods rule over HVØRAX. Author’s Note: This world doesn’t seek balance — it seeks impact. Each race owes a debt to the gods, each place bears a curse, and each object bleeds a story. It’s designed for campaigns with a tone that is dark, poetic, brutal and symbolic. This is not a world for “doing the right thing,” but for surviving with elegance or falling with style. Recommended for players who enjoy emotional roleplay, symbolism, and psychomagical improvisation. Think of a blend between Berserk, Dark Souls, The Divine Comedy, and Midsommar… with hallucinogenic mead.
