The World of Fortuna

The world of Fortuna is a fantasy setting that takes many of the usual stereotypes of the genre, and attempts to put a new twist on them. It is a generally temperate planet, much like our own, though orbited by twin moons. The land is divided into five primary continents, and numerous smaller islands, though only two contain civilizations of any notable size.

Human beings are the dominant form of life on this world, but they are far from the only sentient species. While men have claimed footholds from sea to sea, in many areas they hold only a minority. Though only a handful of races have managed to form their own civilizations, the planet contains a bountiful amount of life. Some familiar, and others exotic.

Many fantasy settings these days are over abundant with magic and deities. Some to the point where they feel like these things drown out any flavor the setting had to begin with. And, while these things aren't abolished completely, an effort will be made to keep them to a manageable level.
