Welcome Page

Welcome to my Primeval Thule D&D Campaign Blog   

Set on earth before the last Ice Age ,Primeval Thule is a land of deep jungles and golden seas, mysterious and unexplored.  It is an age when humankind is a young race, newly arisen on an ancient and monster-haunted Earth. Mighty cities and sprawling empires rise and fall, weaving a tale of great deeds and epic tragedies that will be lost and forgotten by the peoples who came later. Even the land itself is fated to fall beneath the numbing cloak of endless winter, burying the triumphs and defeats of this vanished age beneath miles of ice. But for this glittering moment in the slow dream of time, Thule lives!

My intention is offer a setting intertwined with Simon's Primeval Thule campaign, allowing characters to interact with and effect the setting and each other.  

In an attempt to bring the illusion of order to this rambling chaos the blog has sections or labels on the blog :

                                                                  Adventures  - the accounts of your heroic deeds

                                                                  Resources - NPC backstory, rumours, npcs, maps etc..
