Korinth

The world of Korinth reels in the wake of Tanthraxus Dominion’s Unraveling, its very fabric torn by the god’s wrath. Though defeated and ultimately destroyed by the Company of the Dawn, the nihilistic deity has left the world broken and struggling as its wounds slowly heal. Little remains of the old world: nations sank, mountains buckled, continents split, and magic warped. Now, in the echoes of collapse, Korinth stands at a crossroads between desolation and rebirth.

• The Wheel of Time ( Robert Jordan)
• The many works of Margaret Wyse and Tracy Hickman including: Dragonlance Chronicles, Darksword Trilogy and the Deathgate Cycle
• Riftwar Saga (Raymond Fiest)
• Cthulhu Mythos (H.P. Lovecraft)
