Palladium Fantasy Tourism Board

Unread post by Hendrik »

Hi there,

reading through the PFRPG books again and dreaming myself into this fantastic world. I could not help to wonder what are everyone's favourite destinations? Ignore for a moment whether it is dangerous or not and whether you (or your character) could survive it. Where would "you" like to be, what are your "must sees"?

I would love to
    1. be in a hammock on a beach near the Town of Totugo watching my pirate ship and sipping a rum. (Adventures on the High Seas, pp. 172 ss.)
    2. visit Glade and see the Tree of Life. (Disputed Lands, Eastern Territory, pp. 60 ss.)
    3. study in the Library of Bletherad. (Library of Bletherad, pp. 18 ss.)

There are a zillion other places I would love to see. If I could I would travel the width of the lands of Palladium. Very much looking forward to hear of your choice spots.

Kindest regards
Hendrik

Even though I live in the Boreal Forest, I'd love to visit the Great Northern Wilderness. After that, probably the Yin Sloth Jungles and the Island at the Edge of the World.

The Millennium Tree was Epic!
Haven is impressive- and seeing the Heart of Osiris for the first time is memorable beyond compare.
The Baalgor Wastelands are fascinating.
The Isle of the Cyclops is a wonder, and full of danger.

Until I started playing in a Palladium Fantasy game about a year ago, I only collected the Fantasy books for their magic. It's always been about the unique magic to me. I would want to visit:

  • Study the journals which hint at or even contain ancient magics in the Library of Bletherad
  • Visit the Valley at the Top of the World for the Crystal Magic.
  • Delve the lava of Mount Timiro for the weapons tossed there.
  • Awaken the dormant Life-Force Mage and learn his secrets.
  • Find the pirates treasure which contains Necrom and a host of other rune artifacts.
  • Shop in the Alchemist baazars of the Western empire, where competition and decadance have spurred innovation and low prices.
  • Find the ancient magic circles from ages past and learn their secrets.
  • Befriend the Tree at Glade and the Great Oak in Bizantium.
  • Discover the ruins of ancient cities.
That's off the top of my head. In general, a sailing tour of the world would interest me (using Book3) and I have a special fondness for the Northern Wilderness and Hinnterlands.

Nobody cares about the Palladium of Desires? Really?

I'd like to see:
The Crystal Palace at the Valley at the Top of the World. It's one of the most intriguing ideas Kevin ever came up with. For that matter, I rather wish that Crystal Magic was a bigger deal in Palladium Fantasy.
The Islands at the Edge of the World, both to see the Edge itself, investigate the remnants of the True Atlantean colony there, and experience an open changeling society.
The Great Oak would also be a fascinating place to visit. Dwarves aren't generally portrayed as friends of nature, and I'd be as curious about the community as the tree itself.

I need more information on it than the few paragraphs presented in the Northern Hinterlands. I'm sure it was an amazing, epic, random dungeon crawl that served Kevin and his Defiliers group well for years, but with only the info in the Hinterlands to go on I'll pass.

It is also mentioned in the Island of the Edge of the World book in the Town of a Dozen Fracts pg 21-22

Places I'd like to see

Forest of Enchantment
Elemental Isle
The Dungeon with the circle of elveness
Tombs of Gersidi - Deathkiss and Doubling Sword of Chaos
Library of Blethorad.
Great Northern Forest.
Lopan during the Lopanic games.
Crystal Castle.
The Rune Forge.
Not Necrom, maybe another slightly safer Druids cache.

So Kiralon, looks like we hit a few in Rebuilt- the Games, the Library, the Northern forest, and about to do the Crystal Castle.
I laughed about Necrom, who my group took on more than once. "You Dare?"

I want explore the Old Kingdom Mts to see the remains of the once mighty Dwarven kingdom. Who knows what wonders still lie in those once grand tunnels. And a nice camping trip in the Great Northern Wilderness would be a nice way to spend a summer.

I think Tombs of Gersidi would be off my list. Seriously has some mega bad stuff in their. I prefer to keep my blood and soul in my body. Don't want to be added to the original "human centipede."
