LanternboundLanternbound

Set in the medieval-like world of Elarion, Lanterbound is a low-magic fantasy RPG that will let you choose your own path. Will you follow the hero's journey with a quest line that will lead you to saving the world? Or will you choose the life of a simple farmer overcoming the struggles of a poor harvest.

Background:

It's been more than a century since the gods mysteriously fell silent. Their absence did not destroy civilization overnight. Instead, the world has suffered a long decline as kingdoms fracture, old roads and temples crumble, and a creeping corruption only known as The Blight spreads into forgotten places.

Magic still exists but it is slowly dying. Spells are less reliable, divine power is almost unheard of, and those with magical gifts often find that they weaken with use. Powerful mages can sometime still arise but the greater the power they wield, the faster that power fades. "The flame that burns the brightest burns half as long." 

Ancient relics sometimes retain fragments of impossible strength while old faiths survive mostly through ritual, memory, and stubborn devotion. Elarion is a world that has learned to live without miracles. Most believe the gods to be dead... but some say that they may not be truly gone after all.
