Shadows Over Var-Zyn Wikia



Welcome to the Shadows Over Var-Zyn Wikia
Explore the sword and sorcery realm of Var-Zyn, a Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition world forsaken by the gods; where demons whisper into the ears of corrupt despots, and evil wizards weave fel magic to grow ever more powerful. Heroes are few, but there are riches and glory for those brave enough to venture forth and claim them!

About Var-Zyn
The world of Var-Zyn draws from many Influences and Inspirations to bring a brutal, savage campaign world to 5E D&D. Here in this Wiki you will find the foundational elements of that world, which you can use to challenge your players with a setting unlike anything they've played before!

Getting Started
If you are familiar with 5E D&D then you're well on your way to enjoying the myriad adventure opportunities of Var-Zyn! The game world has a different flavor from the worlds featured in official supplements. A main difference is the lack of any trace of western European influence in the setting. You won't find Knights and damsels here. Head over to the Cultures and Demographics page for more details. Unique civilizations beget unique Religions, Laws, and Organizations, and Var-Zyn is no stranger to those. Moreover, the people of Var-Zyn have a particular regard for the power of Magic and it's relation to the demonic forces which constantly seek to tear the world apart. As a consequence of these differences, many of the Classes outlined in the Player's Handbook are modified to fit the setting. Once you get a feel for the people of Var-Zyn, head over to the Geography page to get the lay of the land or, for a more in depth look at the backstory of Var-Zyn, check out the History page.
