 Mice

Mice are the most common critter on the Great Isle and can be found in almost
every city. Though mice hold many positions of power in various cities, there
are no mouse cities or kingdoms. Mice are found in practically all professions,
including crafters, academics, laborers, politicians, traders, and adventurers.
Mice fur comes in grey, black, tan, brown, white, or a mix. Some Mice will use
magic to augment their fur color to something fantastical like teal and pink.
One of the smaller critters on the Great Isle mice only grow to be 1.7 - 2.5 stalks
tall.

Bonus: +1 Int
Quick: A mouse can use its entire turn to
sprint 2x its movement.

11
 Phooka

Phooka, also known as bandit mice or pom mice, are not mice but instead
fey critters from the elemental plane. They came to the natural world to
escape the chaotic wars of the elemental plane. Phooka coats resemble the
colors of flowers from deep purples to bright yellows. Phooka have two
small pearlescent horns on the top of their head. A Phooka’s tail pom is
a point of pride, and many phooka spend hours grooming them. Phooka
grow to 1.5- 2 stalks tall.

geomancy to build and defend their villages. Pech coats are the colors of stone
and sand with males developing dark armor plating while females have pale
gold or white armor plating. Pech can cast stone armor at will. Pechs grow to

Moles are a critter from deep underground in the Underways where they
spend their lives farming mushrooms and worms or digging more tunnels
to expand their territory. The most significant known mole Kingdom is
the Great Cavern Keep located deep under the Dew Drop Mountains.
Even though the majority of moles live in the Underways they are not
that uncommon on the surface. Moles find their niche in jobs that must
be performed in the dark or at night, where their keen senses can shine.
Moles fur is often grey, brown, black, and on occasion blue, blue moles are
called fairy touched. Moles are also on the smaller side growing to be 2-
2.5 stalks tall.

Bonus: +1 Phy

allowing them to “see” up to 30 bales as if fully
illuminated.

the smallest. This makes them perfect for work that requires minute attention
to detail. Voles can be found in most cities and work in the trade guilds from
carpentry to assassins. Roc Roost is a Vole city and the headquarters to most
of the Great Isle guilds. Voles fur ranges from a deep brown to a golden yellow.

15
 Squirrels

Squirrels are less common in the Great Isle and reside primarily in forests.
Squirrels rarely ever venture outside their borders, preferring the treetops
to prairies or mountains. The two great squirrel cities are Great Oak, home
to the red and gold squirrels, and Silverthorn, Home to the black, white, and
grey squirrels. Squirrels are known to be great warriors, wizards, scholars,
farmers, and merchants. Despite their reluctance to leave the safety of their
woods, squirrels are reliable allies and will come to the aid of any neighboring
city. Squirrel fur comes in a variety of colors from black, white, brown, grey,
golden, and red. Squirrels can grow to 2.5-3.5 stalks tall.

Bonus: +1 Agi

Tree Climber: Squirrels gain +2 to any

climbing checks.

16
 Rabbits

Rabbits are guardians of the meadows where their capital city, The Warrens, is
located. Rabbits are brought up to believe service and justice are the noblest
pursuits. This leads many rabbits to become paladins or clerics of various
orders in The Warrens. Each order sends a score of their members to the West
Gate to serve each year. It is here that the rabbits defend the meadows from the
monsters of Dire Skull. Rabbit fur is most commonly brown and white but also
comes in a variety of colors such as black, tan, white, or a mix. Rabbits grow to
be 3-3.5 stalks tall.

Bonus: +1 Int, +1 Soc

Leap: Rabbits can jump 3x their height

17
 Hobs

After the first calamity Hobgoblins, or Hobs, were the only of the goblin kind
to turn away from Rasselbok and work to fight back against the corruption
that Rasselbok had caused. Hobs were once like rabbits before Rasselbok
corrupted them, magically combining them with void bats. Because of this,
Hobs are naturally resistant to void or dark damage. Hob coats come in white,
grey, black, or brown and their eyes have a yellow or red hue, a telltale sign
of their void ancestry. Hobs are medium size critters growing to be 3-4 stalks
tall.
Natural Resistance: Hobs are resistant to
dark/void damage

Shadow Bat: 10mp, Self, Duration 10min

The Hob is engulfed in shadow and emerges as
a shadow bat. In this form a Hob can move 4
times their normal movement.
18
 Ichneumon

Celestials came to the aid of the critters to fight back Rasselbock’s dragonic
forces during the first calamity. After the war, many celestials returned to
the heavens while others chose to stay and help the critters rebuild. Their
descendants are known as the Ichneumon. The fur of the Ichneumon is almost
always gold or silver and has a slight preternatural glow to it, even in darkness.
Ichneumon are said to be able to sense evil and heal small wounds, Ichneumon
are large critters almost coming shoulder to shoulder with badgers at 4-4.5
stalks tall.

Sense Evil: Ichneumon can reach out with their

senses to detect evil in a 60 stalk radius.

Healing Paws: 5mp, Range Touch

wound healing the target for 3d6 hp

19
 Otters

Otters are found in the Marshlands where small fishing villages dot the
landscape or in Water Town, a large floating city located in the middle of
Otter Lake. Otter traders are known to travel along river routes to sell their
wares. Otter adventurers are unique in that they can fight monsters deep
underwater where other critters cannot go without magic. Otter fur comes in
shades of brown or chestnut to a golden brown. Otters are one of the largest
critters growing to be 4-4.5 stalks tall.

Bonus: +1 Agi, +1 Phy

Deep Breath: Otters can hold their breath

for 10 minutes

20
 Badgers

Badgers are the tallest known critter on the Great Isle. Badgers reside primarily
in their dens located in the Black Hallows to the west or in the Ember Keep off
the east coast of the isle. Outside of these two cities badgers often make their
homes in the wildlands, preferring solitary life over that of the large cities. Due
to their size, badgers make excellent warriors. Badger fur is most commonly
black with silver and white; however, some badgers are born with golden yellow
fur. Badgers grow between 4-4.5 stalks tall.

Bonus: +2 Phy

Rage: In the heat of battle a badger can rage

granting them +2 to all attack rolls for all melee
attacks until the end of the battle. A badger must
rest for 12 hours before they can rage again.

21
 Stats Physicality 2 | Agility 4 | Intellect 6 | Social 5
After a player selects a critter, they will roll
its base stats: Physicality (Phy), Agility (Agi), Stats are the base rolls when attempting an
Intellect (Int), Social (Soc). Each of these stats action. Jimmy will always get to roll at least 5
represents an aspect of a character. dice when attempting any action requiring Int
(i.e., casting a complex spell).
Physicality: character’s physical ability. The
more physicality a character has, the more
beefy and muscular a character will be allowing
the character to excel in feats of strength. This
stat is the favored stat for combat-oriented
characters.

Agility: This stat represents a character’s speed

and acrobatic ability. The more agile a character
is, the faster and more graceful a character
will move, giving them the advantage of speed.
Agility can also determine a character’s chances
at sleight of hand or the ability to perform a
dance. This is favored by characters who want to
be stealthy, graceful, or fast.

Intellect: This stat represents a character’s

ability to solve puzzles and acquire information.
The more intellect a character has, the
quicker they will learn new things or process
information. This stat is favored by characters
who use brains over bronze or use magic.
Social: This stat represents a character’s
sociability. The more social a character is, the
easier it is for him or her to talk their way out of
trouble or inspire their companions. This stat
is favored by characters who are quick-witted,
smooth talkers, motivational, emotionally
intelligent, or charming.
Rolling Stats
Players roll 5d6 discarding the lowest roll.
Players then apply one roll to each stat.
Example:
Jimmy Rolls 5d6 and gets 2 | 4 | 5 | 2 | 6
Jimmy now has to decide which roll should go
with which stat. He knows he is going to want
to play some kind of Mage so Intelligence is the
stat that will help him the most. With that in
mind Jimmy places his stats in this order:
Secondary Stats
After the base stats are selected and placed,
the player will calculate all of their secondary
stats.
Hit Points (HP):
HP represents how much damage a character
can take before succumbing to their wounds.
Players can increase their chance of survival
by purchasing armor or shields. HP resets to
full after staying in an inn.
HP = Phy x 6 (plus any additional bonuses)
Injured: If a character falls below 50% of their
health, they become injured and suffer -1 dice
to all rolls until their wound is treated or their
hp is above 50%.
Wounded: If a character falls below 25% of
their health, they become wounded and suffer
-2 dice to all rolls until their wound is treated
or their hp is above 25%.

22
Dead:
If a character’s hp falls to 0, the character dies.
A character can be revived by a healer within 6
hours of their death so long as their corpse is
intact and no vitals are destroyed.
Magic Points (MP):
Many items have abilities that require the use of
Magic Points. Each character has a set amount
of MP they can use daily, once their pool of MP
has been exhausted, they must rest at least 6
hours to regain their MP. If a character attempts
to use an ability that requires MP, but they have
none they can instead sacrifice their HP. Some
items can restore a character’s MP. MP resets to
full after staying in an inn.

Evasion: monsters attacks.
This stat represents a character’s ability
to avoid, dodge, parry, and evade attacks. Jimmy’s Evasion Dice
The higher a character’s evasion, the more
opportunities they will have to avoid taking
damage.

Evasion Dice:
These are the dice that are used to evade attacks.
If a character is attacked, a player can attempt
to evade those attacks by using an evasion

1 5 6
dice. A roll of 5 or 6 on an evasion roll negates
1 successful attack from the enemy (AKA the
character evaded the attack). A player can use
any number of evasion dice up to the max they
are allowed per round. The number of evasion Enemy Attack Dice
dice that can be used per round is determined
by agility and any additional bonuses from Jimmy’s character successfully evaded
equipment or spells. Evasion dice reset at the one of the monsters attacks and still has 1
beginning of the next round. evasion dice he can use this round.

“Stop dancing around so I can smash you!”

23
 Professional Skills:
At creation, characters are granted 2 skill points.
Each point put into a skill gives the character an
additional +1 dice when attempting to perform
any action related to that specific skill. Players
are encouraged to invent their own skills and
place them under an appropriate ability.
For instance, Sarah wants her critter to be a
great swords-mouse, so she decides to write in
“swords” in the Physical and place 1 skill point
in that skill. This grants her a +1 dice to all rolls
involving swords including attacks.
This same principle can be applied to magical
abilities such as spells. Players should also think
about noncombat skills such as charm, baking,
or disable traps. The GM has the right to deny a
player the professional skill if he or she does not
feel it fits within the spirit of the game. Below is
a chart of example skills you can use as a starting
point.
Rule Variant: If all players agree a skill is
acceptable, they can overrule the GM’s decision
and allow the skill.

Players Guide

43
 Wildlands is a role-playing and cooperative
storytelling game with each player controlling
a critter and the Game Master (GM) describing
the environments, challenges, outcomes, as
well as playing as the villains and nonplayer
characters.
Players
As a Player, your job is to control the character
you have created. You control everything the
character does and says. When it is your turn
to act describe to the GM in as much detail as
needed to explain what you would like your
character to do. The GM will then define the
steps or challenges you will need to achieve to
successfully execute those tasks. Once those
steps are attempted the GM will judge the
attempt and then describe the outcome to the
players.
Game Master
As the GM, you act as the narrator of the game,
describing what the player characters can
see, hear, feel, smell, and sense. You also play
any role that is not controlled by the players
(NPC), and you are encouraged to do voices
and act to help bring flavor to the experience.
The GM is also responsible for deciding the
difficulties of the challenges the players face and
describing the outcomes of those actions. The
more descriptive and excited you are about the
results, whether good or bad for the player, the
more fun the game will be for the group.
*note: Never play a character for the player, always let the
player describe their intended actions and then let them
react to the outcome you describe.
Quests
As adventurers, characters progress by going
on quests, seeking glory, honor, reward, and
loot. By completing quests, characters gain
experience allowing them to master new skills.
Quest Completion
At the end of the quest experience points will be
transferred to the players. It is important to note
that players receive experience whether they
succeed or fail. However, failure may result in
the characters losing out on other opportunities

Leveling
When a character reaches enough experience
to level up the player can choose one of the
following options:
A) Gain 1 skill point that can be used to learn a
new skill
B) Increase Health by 6
C) Increase Mana by 5
Character Actions
When players want their character to attempt an
action, they must describe their action to the GM.
After hearing the description the GM may decide
the player needs to make an Ability Check (AC).
The player will roll their ability dice comparing
their number of successes to the Difficulty
Rating. The Difficulty Rating of the action, see
chart, specifies how many successes are needed
to perform an action.
A simple action may require 1 or 2 successes
while a more complicated action may require 3
or 4. If the GM determines an action’s Difficulty
Rating exceeds the number of Ability Dice a
character can roll, then the character is incapable
of overcoming the challenge. If the number of
successes exceeds the difficulty rating by 1 or
more this is considered a flawless success.

 Cities
Each city has a unique history and population.
Some cities are built around magical cites while
others are built for defense and war. Each city is
described in the campaign section of this book.
Dungeon
When players are exploring, a dangerous or
dungeon-like area have them use the Player
Phase of the combat rules. Repeat until the
players run into some kind of encounter or the
danger is resolved and they can move freely.
Random Encounters
Each location will have a random encounter
chart for the GM to utilize when their players are
traveling located in the campaign setting of this
book, page 69.
Search, Spot, and Listening
When players are exploring and would like to
perform a search, spot, or listen action, they
simply need to declare that action. Players
need to explicitly state what they are searching,
looking, or listening for. The GM then describes
to the players what they find, see, or hear, if
anything. There is no need to roll for these
actions; however, these actions may require
46
time to complete. The GM should use their best
judgment in how long these simple actions should
take to complete.
Combat
Start of Combat
The element of surprise determines which group
gets the first action. If the players get the drop
on their enemies, they will make the first combat
actions. However, if the enemy gets the drop
on the players, then the enemies make the first
combat action.
If there is no element of surprise simply flip a
coin to determine first combat action or the GM
can use their best judgment.
Combat phases
Once combat has been initiated, each side will
take turns making movements and actions as
a group in two phases, a Player Phase, and an
Enemy Phase. The key to winning any combat
encounter is teamwork. Players are encouraged to
devise interesting strategies and combinations.

Jimmy: When she does that my character will

in an attempt to ignite the belt near the stone
golems core.
Gm: Sarah make a Phy check (for every success
you throw it 3 bales), Jimmy make an attack

only needs to make 1 successful roll to hit a

them still exists)

waits for the peak of the arch to begin firing.
His first 3 shots miss but just as the belt passes
in front of the stone golem’s core Jimmy
connects. His fire arrow ignites one bottle,

rounds and are considered deaf.
Evasion:
For every successful roll (5-6), the character
negates one enemy attack (See page 23). Some
abilities can be activated with a successful
evasion roll.

Escape:
Don’t be a fool, if the enemies are
overpowering the characters, then they
should run to fight another day. Characters
can’t collect the rewards if they’re dead.
Once all parties on the escaping side have
moved outside the vision of their pursuers,
they are considered disengaged and can take
actions outside of combat rounds. Players
should keep moving, or they may find their
characters back in the middle of the fight.
Throwing:
If the object is light the action is an Agi AC
and for each success, the object is thrown 4
bales.
If the object is heavy, the action is a Phy AC,

Cosmology
There are five known planes of existence, each
with its own rules and denizens. The Great
Isle and all the other wildlands exist in the
natural world. The natural world touches the
boundaries of all the other known planes, the
Heavens, Void, Elemental, and the Strange.
When creatures from the other planes come to
the natural world, nature forces them to take
physical form. This form usually maintains
some magical aspect of the creatures

The Heavens are an infinite plane of
sky motes that float in a sea of clouds and stars.
Each Skymote will have some physical features
that relate to the divine beast that claims it as
their territory. For instance, a sky mote covered
in snow and frozen lakes would be under the
domain of Gharns. While a sky mote that looks
and feels like the middle of summer would be
under Astria’s control. There are countless
divine beasts and celestials in the Heavens.
Only a few make their presence known in the
natural world, and even fewer lay claim to the
Great Isle.

-A Thoughtful Mole
Void
The Void is a plane of darkness and desolation,
an infinite stretch of a barren rocky landscape
that twists and turns into a dizzying maze of
despair. Denizens of the Void include demons,
dark beasts, corrupted, and the fallen Divine
Beasts. These creatures spend their lives
hunting, fighting, killing, and eating one
another. Through power and fear demons and

The Strange is a realm of many mysteries. It

Pantheon
There are great powers beyond the realms of
nature known as the Divine or Divine Beasts.
These powers are said to reside in the heavens
where they watch of the Great Isle influencing
events in their followers favor for both good
and evil. Most critters believe in the divine but
rarely worship outside of visiting temples to
curry favor or participate in holiday traditions.
The critters that do follow a divine beast are
referred to as priests and knights. Some temples
may train certain priests to use magic powers
that are granted to them by the divine. These
wizard priests are known as clerics. Knights
may be called to follow the way of an order to
slay monsters and uphold the laws. These holy
knights are known as paladins. Clerics and
paladins that support one of the evil divine
beasts are known as the corrupted and dark
beasts.
Oro the Golden
Good
Domain: Healing, Life, Light, Lightning
Oro the Golden is the divine beast of life and
is represented by a golden stag with a golden
corona resting above its antlers. The followers
of Oro pay tribute by traveling the Great Isle
healing the sick and comforting the wounded.
They use their skills in healing, combined with
magics to cure wounds that would typically
maim or even cause death. The paladins of Oro
hunt and destroy demons and are always on the
lookout for cultists or the other creations and
followers of Rasselbok.
“May the light of Oro protect you.”
-Bunny Priest of the Divine Light
Tal’ila Harbinger of Justice
Good
Domain: Justice, Law, Truth
Tal’ila the Just is the divine beast of justice
and is represented as a silvery unicorn with
a pearlescent mane and horn. The disciples
of Talila show their devotion by enforcing
agreements, contracts, and upholding the laws
of the land. The followers of Tal’ila use their
skills to make sure justice is served, and many
take up positions as city guards, judges, and
detectives. Clerics of Tal’ila use magics to divine
the truth while Tal’ila paladins seek to capture
those evading justice.
Honorable Taur
Domain: Honor, Nobility, Wisdom
Good
Taur is the divine beast of honor, nobility, and
wisdom. The followers of Taur seek honor above
all else. Devotees gain honor by performing
good acts and resisting any action that would
be seen as evil or unjust. To lose honor would
mean to lose status with Taur and rank within
an order. Clerics of Taur are often warrior
monks who defend against evil while paladins
of Taur are Knights who strike out at evil. The
largest temple of Taur can be found at the West
Gate.
Orsa the Mystical
Domain:, Arcana, Knowledge, Air, Intrigue
Neutral
Orsa is the divine beast of arcana, knowledge,
and intrigue. She is represented by a crystal
bear. The followers of Orsa see the world of
magic as her great puzzle, and as her followers,
they must solve that puzzle. They do this by
discovering new spells, brewing new potions,
and crafting new magic items. Orsa has no
temples, clerics, or paladins. Instead, her
followers create libraries, colleges, and towers
of magic.
Gharns Lord of Winter
Domain: Death, Water, Ice, Winter
Neutral
Gharns is said to be the divine beast of death,
water, and ice and is represented by a ghostly
53
 moose. Followers of Gharn do not fear death
and, instead, accept it as part of a great
cycle. Clerics of Gharns tend to the dead, the
bereaved. They watch over the tombs and
graves of the departed so that their remains will
rest in peace. Paladins of Gharns are known as
Death Knights. Death Knights are dedicated to
the destruction of the undead and those who
would summon them. Faithful followers of
Gharns believe death should be permanent, and
if they are resurrected, they will be banished
from any order of Gharns. It is said Gharns
visits the natural world in the winter. During
this time he gathers up the lost souls in his great
antlers and brings them to the land of the dead
where they can seek the realm of a divine beast.
Terra Lady of Stone
Domain: Earth, Stone, Gems, Battle
Neutral
Terra is the divine beast of earth, stone, and
battle and represented as an obsidian wolverine.
Terra is most revered among the moles and
badgers who make their homes deep in the
ground and rock. Followers of Terra are closely
linked with the earth and are known for their
ability to dig and shape stone. Others show their
devotion to Terra through battle, digging deep
into the underways to root out evils hiding in
Terra’s domain. The bigger and more dangerous
the fight, the more glory they feel they bring to
Terra. Clerics of Terra are artisans who spend
their days creating beautiful objects from the
elements of the earth like gems, stones, and
metals. A few warrior cleric sects do exist
among the badgers and moles. These warrior
clerics seek to strengthen their bodies and wills
to become like stone. Paladins of Terra, such
as the mole Spade Knights of the Great Cavern,
devote their lives to destroying any threat that
would defile to the underways.
Astria Lady of Summer
Neutral
Domain: Fire, Summer, War, Baking
Astria is the divine beast of Fire and War and
represented by a lion wreathed in a mane of fire.
Critters who love fire or use fire in their work
may follow Astria. These followers can range
54
from smithies to the pyromancers of Ember
Keep. Other followers are those who seek glory
in war, conquering lands, and the heat of battle.
Many mercenaries, soldiers, and even healers
follow Astria to find glory in war. It is said
that the summer fires are Astria coming to the
natural word to spark conflict.
Rasselbok the Twisted
Evil
Domain: Corruption, cruelty, poison
Rasselbok is the divine beast of corruption and
is represented by an amalgamation of various
animals, most commonly a rabbit with horns
and wings. Rasselbok is believed to be the cause
for the corruption of the goblins and underlings
who are its most fervent worshipers. The
corrupted and dark beasts devote themselves
to spreading Rasselbok’s corruption. If a critter
follows Rasselbok will eventually become
deformed and mutated due to the use of the evil
magic Rasselbok was banished to the void by
Oro after the first calamity.
Trak’uul the Undying
Evil
Domain: Undead, hatred, Darkness
Trak’uul is the divine beast of the undead,
hatred, and darkness. He is represented by a
skeletal or rotting dragon. Followers of Trakuul
seek to corrupt the natural order of death by
raising the undead, inflaming hatreds, and
spread darkness in their wake. The corrupted
and dark beasts of Trak’uul are necromancers,
wicked priests, and undying. After death, many
of Trak’uuls followers will turn into undead.
Trak’uul was once a great dragon who lived on
the Great Isle before the time of the critters.
However when age caught up to him and
Gharns came to claim him Trak’uul refused and
fled to the void where Gharns could not follow.
It was here he stayed, undying, using his power
to find a way to overcome Gharns and return to
the natural world to live for all eternity.
XyXrl
Assumed Evil
Domain: ???
Very little is known about XyXrl. XyXrl is
represented as a one-eyed Kraken or squid.
History
The Great Isle has a long and colorful history
most of which has been lost to time with the
ruins of many kingdoms, fortresses, and dark
dens dotting the countryside from before the
first and second calamity. In the present day,
it has been 128 years since the felling of the
divine oak in Silverthorn. Life is peaceful, with
only a few scuffles between guilds or cities, most
of whom are attempting to gain territory and
power. At the beginning of the new age, the orcs
and dire beasts were driven back to Dire Skull,
and any remaining warbands were scattered
and fled deep into the woods and mountains.
Only one horde has risen to challenge the west
gate since the calamity. A horde lead by a great
dire beast, Alka Sparkfang, a giant thunder
lynx. Her Horde broke through the west gate,
but they were defeated in the plains east of
the Warrens. Despite this relative peace, there
has been an increase in goblin and underling
sightings along with fears of a long-prophesied
return of Rasselbok.
Locations
Black Hollows
Black Hollows is a badger city In the northwest
corner of the Great Isle. These badgers live in a
warrior society most of whom carve out a living
in the frozen tundra known as the barrens.
Black Hollow badgers spend most of their
life hunting the giant monsters that roam in
the barrens such as drakes, dragons, and dire
beasts. Balck Hollows badgers respect strength
above all else. They expect their leader to be
the strongest among them. The Black Hollow
leader is chosen in a trial by combat, where the
last remaining badger is made ruler. Any badger
can challenge the current leader in battle at any
time. Black Hollow is not part of the Treaty of
Silver Oak and stay mostly to themselves, only
ever lending aid when the threat spills over into
their territories.
Notable critters
Black Skull the Bone Breaker
Black Skull is the current leader of Black
Hollows and has been for the past decade.
He is a giant badger standing nearly 6 stalks
tall. His body is covered in many scars from
his many battles with giant monsters of the
Barrens. Unlike most badgers who have striped
heads, Black Skull’s head is completely covered
in black fur. He wears the skull of a drake as a
helmet and wields a massive greatsword, its hilt
and handle crafted from dragon bones.
Dead Lands
The Dead Lands are a cursed area where a once-
thriving city stood before the first calamity.
Today all that is left are ruins and bones. Many
adventurers travel here to discover magic
items and riches, but few critters return and
those that do never speak of it. The followers
of Gharns are known to make pilgrimages to
the Dead Lands in an attempt to put to rest the
cursed spirits that wander the bones.
Notable Critters
Tati the Dread Lord
Tati was once a white mage mouse who
betrayed her order when she began to use
forbidden void magics. After she was discovered
she fled to the dead lands where she began to
perform necromancy rituals to raise an army
of undead monsters. It is said she resides in a
floating black tower that travels the deadlands
raising the dead to serve her.
Dire Skull
Dire Skull is located west of the Giants Staircase
between Kalku’s chimneys and the Dark Rift.
Dire Skull is home to many of the evil creatures
of the Great Isle. Underlings, goblins, dire
beasts and other monsters call this desolate
land their home. These evil creatures are in
constant war with each other, and any one
band is swiftly attacked by another at the first
sign of weakness. The last known leader of Dire
Skull was Alka Sparkfang, a thunder lynx who
wielded a wicked whip of lightning and dark
magical powers. It was her cruelty and strength
that allowed her to gain dominion of the broken
55
 goblin and underling bans and push past West
Gate.
Notable critters
Arkel Sparkfang
A young thunder lynx who has risen to control
of Dire Skull and has a force of 10 fire giants and
200 goblins under his control. He lost his eye in
his first encounter with the forces of West Gate
to a young rabbit who had leaped high enough
to strike him in the face. The wound is covered
mostly by Arkel’s eye patch, an enchanted item
that allows him to see magical energies. Arkel
stands around 9 stalks high and wields a long
curved sword that ignites into flames when
drawn from its sheath.
Rot Tusk the Twisted
An old Gnoll spell caster who has risen to
become Arkel’s advisor. Rot Tusk is emaciated
and mangy, its bare skin stretched like leather
over its bones. He stands at three and a half
56
stalks tall and wears a dark robe and hood to
hide his frailness. Rot Tusk is physically weak
but wields excellent magical powers.
Death Fangs
A black dragon who lives deep in the rifts near
Dire Skull. Little is known about Death Fangs
because, as her name implies, almost nothing
survives an encounter with her. It is said that
Death Fangs has an army of underlings that
worship her as a divine beast.
Ember Keep
Ember Keep is a badger stronghold built into
the side of a volcano in the middle of an island
off the eastern banks of the Great Isle. Ember
Keep is known for their high-quality arms and
armor forged in the heart of the mountain and
enchanted by great badger clerics of Terra. As
part of an agreement after the second calamity,
the Ember Keep sends a half a score of badgers
to Westgate who serve for 3 years. The biggest
threats to the Ember Keep are pirates who
attack their shipping routes, creatures who live
in the Great Ocean, and underlings who find
their way from deep in the underways. Ember
Keep is ruled over by the Ember King, a badger
of great honor selected by the ember council.
The ember council is a randomly selected
group of citizens who selects a new Ember
King after the previous Ember King
passes or abdicates. The Ember King
can be any gender.
Notable critters
Tela the Gold
The Ember King, Tela is a sizeable
golden badger who was elected
Ember King after the last king
sacrificed himself in battle with
a great demon. Tela stands at
5.7 stalks tall and wears a large
leather leaf apron trimmed with
gold and the crest of Ember
Keep at its center. She wields a
large Mole Steel hammer that
she uses to craft weapons as a
blacksmith and in battle. The
hammer was enchanted to never
tarnish, chip, or scratch. Tela is
seen as a fair ruler and has done
well by the Ember Keeps Citizens.
Great Oak
Great Oak is a city built in the treetops
and at the roots of a titanic oak tree
known as a divine tree. There were two
sacred trees gifted to the squirrels after the
first calamity by Oro, one to the black and
white squirrels of the west and one to the red
and gold squirrels of the east. Great Oak is
predominantly populated by the red and gold
squirrels of Oak Wood. Great Oak is a sacred
place for squirrels and now that it is home to
the only divine oak left in nature. It has become
a place of pilgrimage for many critters on the
Great Isle. Once a year the city of Great Oak
holds a festival to celebrate the banishment
of the void beast and the remembrance of the
Silverthorn Oak. Many notable critters attend
to reaffirm alliances and treaties between the
cities. Great Oak is run by a council of branches.
Each major branch of the divine tree is home
to a specific house of squirrels of which there
are 16. A noble of each house is selected to
represent the branch at the council. Critters
who live at the base of the divine tree are also
represented by 3 elected council members.
Notable critters
Honey, House of Gold Blossom
A squirrel spellcaster from the great
oak that was one of the major heroes
who stopped the salamander armies
from rising from the underways.
She now sits on the council as a
senior member as representative
of the House of Gold Blossom.
Honey wears the golden Robes of
her house and wields a staff she
discovered deep in the underways.
Honey is considered to be one of
the most powerful spell casters on
the Great Isle.
Red Top Tower
This Tower stands in the southeast
corner of the Great Isle. Red Top
tower is the college of the red mages
and home to the Great Isle’s largest
repository of books, scrolls, and
historical texts. Critters from all over
the Great Isle travel to Red Top to have
magical items identified, enchanted,
disenchanted, or reverse engineered to
discover their secrets. Red Top is home
to more than just mages and scholars. Many
critters live around the great colleges walls
where they run inns and markets for the many
travelers. Red Top Tower is overseen by the Red
Council, a group of the 12 most powerful mages
known as the Magus.
Notable critters
Archer the Wise
Head Council and Archmagus of Red Top Tower
Archer is a pudgy mouse who spends most
of his time researching how to use magic to
57
 enhance food. Short for a mouse many mistake
him to be a vole or even a mole due to his girth.
He wears fine red robes and dons a red hat
that marks his status as a magus. Despite his
carefree food-loving demeanor Archer is older
than most mages and has expertise in a vast
amount of subjects.
Roc Roost
Roc Roost is the city of guilds built on the
edge of a cliff in the southeast of the Great
Isle. Founded initially by voles after all of the
trade routes of the past were destroyed or
overrun by monsters. Today the city stands
as the headquarters for many, if not all, of
the active guilds on the isle. The city is full of
intrigue as wealthy guilds perform dubious
political maneuvers combined with cloak
and dagger conspiracies to gain power in the
city of nobles. Every agreement made in Roc
Roost is considered a contract and contracts
are law in Roc Roost. If a dispute breaks out
openly between guilds, they will be brought
to the Grand Judge, an impartial overseer,
and enforcer of contracts. The decisions of
the Grand Judge are harsh and final, so many
disputes between guilds are settled in the
shadows and agreements are worded with
loopholes, doublespeak, codes, and fine print.
Roc Roost is the largest city on the Great Isle as
many of the refugees from the second calamity
were encouraged to come to the city to help
rebuild and forge a new home.
Notable critters
The Grand Judge
A critter of indeterminate nature sits as the
highest judge in all of Roc Roost. The Grand
Judges identity is kept a secret to ensure their
impartiality. The Grand Judge always has an
apprentice who is also unknown. When the
Grand Judge retires or dies, their apprentice
seamlessly transitions into the position. Rumor
has it that the Grand Judge is, in fact, a divine
beast who hides its identity from the Great Isle.
58
Silverthorn
Silverthorn was once built in the branches of
the Silver Oak, a divine tree. However, at the
end of the second calamity, a great void demon
attacked the city, destroying the great tree
before a company of heroes were able to seal
the monster away. All that stands of the once
great tree is a large stump and roots. Around
this Silverthorn was rebuilt and after many
decades new hope rose in the city when the
priests discovered two new branches sprouting
from the trunk. Silverthorn is also home to the
White College of mages located in the cities
college district. The city is run by the Steward of
Silver, a critter elected by the wards to oversee
the city for 6 years. The steward has a council of
citizens, 1 from each ward, who help him care
for the city.
Notable critters
Silvertail Steward of Silver
Silvertail is a grey squirrel who was elected
as Steward of Silver a decade and a half ago,
dedicating himself to the restoration of the
divine tree. Silvertail is unremarkable for a
squirrel, and without his stoles of honor, he
would appear to be any priest of the sacred
tree. The wards of Silverthorn believe him to be
just, and his organization of the Lily Guard has
dramatically reduced encounters with goblins
and feral ants. This has led to his reelection as
steward 2 times. Silvertail is one of the most
notable healers in all of the isle, spending most
of his power in attempts to quicken the growth
of the divine tree.
Warrens
The Warrens is a rabbit stronghold located
in the middle of the prairie lands far from
the shelter of the trees and mountains. The
city itself is a collection of tunnels that lead
to various residential and military chambers
underground. The Warren is not connected to
the underways but keeps a vigilant eye on its
tunnels, just in case. The Warrens are home
to many paladin and clerical orders and is run
by their leaders, the council of rules. Every
year each order sends a troop of their paladins
and clerics to serve at the west gate to protect
against the monsters of Dire Skull. Though the
population of The Warrens is predominantly
rabbits, many other critters travel to the city to
join an order or receive training from the many
military experts who live in the city.
Water Town
Located west of the White Top Mountains and
past the Otter Wood sits Water Town. Water
Town is a floating city built by the otters to
keep them safe from the goblins that infested
Otter Wood after the second calamity. Unless
accustomed to swimming great distances, any
goblin or evil creature will have to travel by boat
or fly to reach the city. Either of which can be
easily spotted by the towns watch. Water Town
has no official governing body and instead is
made up of volunteers who unofficially oversee
the needs and defense of the city.
Notable critters
Olaf Drake Slayer
The head of the volunteer defense force. Olaf
is a giant otter with sleek black fur and several
scars. He is famed for slaying a monstrous river
drake who had been hunting otter pups near the
outskirts of the floating village. The bones of the
drake are displayed in the center of town as a
tribute to Olaf’s victory. Olaf wears sleek scale
mail and wields a great harpoon.
West Gate
West Gate is a massive fortress built at the foot
of the Great Staircase. It is here that paladins,
clerics, mages, priests, and average critters
stand guard against the threats of Dire Skull.
Goblin hordes and evil armies must first break
through the west gate before they can enter the
prairie lands, a tall order for even the strongest
of Dire Beasts. West Gate has no ruling body
and instead is ruled by the treaty of Silver Oak,
a document which dictates the laws and chain
command. If there is a dispute, it is brought to
the Grand Judge in Roc Roost. Amendments
can be made to the treaty as long as all the
leaders agree.
Wild Lands
All of the territories outside the protection
of a city, keep, or fortress are known as
wildlands. The wildlands are untamed areas
full of creatures and monsters who would love
nothing more than to devour a wandering
critter. However, where there is danger, there
is profit to be made. Many of the ancient ruins
are still unexplored, and artifacts can be traded
for coins, meals, or fame. The dangers of the
wildlands can also offer work to traveling
adventurers. A town may need a monster slain
to save their livestock or some a component
may need to be found and brought back from
the wildlands. Small villages and towns are
dotted throughout the wildlands and offer
relative safety, shelter, and trade to traveling
merchants, companies, and adventurers.
Adventurers should always be wary when
crossing the wildlands, danger is always nearby,
even near the warmth of a roaring fireplace.
Different environments present different
challenges to traveling critters. Use the
encounter charts as guides, for encounters in
specific settings. Random encounter charts are
only for deciding if there is an encounter and
with what kind of creature. The GM should
decide how many creatures and how the battle
should take place.
Organizations
When a player’s character gains enough
experience to turn level 3 they can, instead of
the standard leveling system, choose to join
an organization. Character paths are optional
story choices that a player can choose for their
character at specific points in the game. These
choices will give your character boons, which
may help in particular situations. If a player
does not wish to choose a character path, they
simply level as they usually would.
Orders:
Joining an order gives a character a unique
ability and access to all of the order’s resources.

are wary of the Golden Flame. However,
they understand the Golden Flame are a
vital asset to Westgate and will be needed if
another evil rises. Members of the Golden

There are many schools of magic, and each
school has its own ideas about how magic
should be used. The most notable are the
White Tower in Silverthorne, Red Top Tower
in the southeast and Citadel Bluewing in the
northwest. Not all spell casters are mages, and
many prefer the freedom to use magic as they
wish without the rules of the colleges.
White Tower
The scholars and mages of white tower believe
that magic should be used to do kind acts and
defend the innocent from evil deeds. Mages of
the white tower wear white, yellow, and golden
garb adorned with the symbol of Oro. White
mages are quick to help in times of trouble, war,
and to beat back the darkness. The white tower
has two tenets. The first is members cannot
use magic to kill critters. The second, members
Not all of the mage towers and colleges
are accounted for. Many mages hide
their towers away behind magic portals
where they can study Orsa’s secrets in
peace. Other towers stand empty, long
abandoned or home to new monstrous
masters.

 cannot use any item that uses dark or void
magic. If a character is caught using dark or
void magics, they will be stripped of their rank
and marked for execution.
As a mage of the white tower characters are
granted a room within the tower, access to the
tower’s records, and can seek advice from the
Archmages of the White Tower. Characters may
also choose one of the white tower’s spells to
gain permanently.
Choose one of the following.
Healing Wave: 10mp Range 5 Aoe diameter 4
(send out a healing wave that restores 20hp to
all allies in the area).

and granted +20 AP, resistance against void or
dark magic).
Ray of Light: 5mp Range 5 Aoe line 4 attack 4
dmg 5 lightning (send a ray of crackling energy
through your enemies).
Red Top Tower
The college of Red Top is a group of mages that
believe that the pursuit of knowledge comes
before all else. Mages of Red Top Tower wear
red or orange garb adorned with a symbol of
Orsa. Red mages are known to devise grand
magical experiments that have led to disaster in
the past. Red Top Tower has very few rules for
how magic is used. They see Orsa’s puzzles in
all forms of magic, even void magic, and intend
to solve them all. However, they do have a rule
against any summoning magic, though if you
really needed the answer and the outcome was
for the greater good, they just might look the
other way.
As a mage of the Red Top Tower characters are
granted a laboratory within the tower, access to
the tower’s records, and can seek advice from
the magus of the Red Top Tower. Characters
may also choose one of Red TopTower’s spells
to gain permanently.

spell on a magic item the mage will know that
items history and abilities).
Arcane Location: 5mp (after casting this spell

bales).
Counterspell: 10mp Range 50 (when an enemy
attempts to cast a spell you weave a counterspell
that nullifies the enemies spell. This spell can
only be cast as a triggered action).
Citadel Bluewing
Those who study in the halls of Citadel
Bluewing will find themselves amid powerful
battle mages who dedicate themselves to
offensive magic. Unlike other scholars and
mages who prefer to bury their whiskers in
books an scrolls, those of citadel blue wing seek
out combat. These mages wield magical melee
weapons which they use to dispatch monsters.
Citadel Bluewing believes that cowardice in the
face of danger is a mortal sin. Any battle mage
who acts cowardly will be stripped of their rank
and marked as a traitor. (Fleeing from almost
certain death is not considered cowardly, fleeing
from a fight to leave your comrades behind to
face harm or death, however, is cowardly).
As a mage of the Citadel Bluewing characters
are granted a training room within the tower,
access to the tower’s records, and can seek
advice from the knight mages of Citadel Blue
Wing. Characters may also choose one of
Citadel Bluewing’s spells to gain permanently.

Daily Life

Domestic Creatures
Over generations of hard,
patient, work a few critters
were able to domesticate
some of the creatures native
to the Great Isle. These
creatures are in many
aspects of daily life and are
used for transportation,
food, sentries, and even
companionship. The three
most common domesticated
animals are the giant beetle,
riding birds, and the domestic
ant. More massive creatures
are often beasts of burden used
in farming, travel, shipping,
and hauling. Their strength, and
some bird and bug’s ability to fly,

 Leather Leaf Clothes Leather Leaf
Dress
The styles, colors, and utility of clothing vary
from city to city. However, most of the clothes
on the Great Isle are made from the same
materials. Most commonly, leather leaf, a large,
broad-leafed plant that can be found growing
wild in the prairie lands. It is cultivated for its
leaves and for the fluffy fibrous material that
comes from its seeds. The leaves can be cured
and made into protective clothing, straps, and
other materials that need to be more robust
than cloth. Depending on the curing method
and time of year, leatherleaf can come in a
variety of colors such as green, red, yellow,
and dark or light brown. Some leather leaf is
bleached in the sun with a particular solution so
the material can be dyed. After curing the leaves
resemble leather hide. The fiber from the seeds
is spun into a yarn or thread that is then used
to make textiles. If the flowers are harvested
before they change into seed pods, they can be
used to create yellow dyes. Armors are often
a combination of materials with parts made
from padded fabrics, forged from metal, or the
carapaces of bugs and crustaceans.
Leather Plant
Food
Critters of the Great Isle enjoy many types
of food, and each city has its own specialties,
but all share many of the same ingredients.
Berries, nuts, and grains are the most common
ingredients found on the isle, along with greens
and root vegetables. Many critters also enjoy the
meat of bugs, crustaceans, fish, and birds. When
it comes to sweets critters, harvest the honey of
bees, saps, and nectar from flowers which they
use to create candied fruits, candied nuts, cakes,
and pastries. It is an accepted fact that delicious
foods have healing and magical powers. When
consumed these food grant bonuses or healing.
This makes some foods valuable to adventurers
such as candied nuts, jams, and potions.
Calendar
The current year is C2,128. C2 representing
‘after the second calamity’ and 128 the number
of years since that time. Years are broken down
into four time frames: Spring lasting 60 days,
Time of Astria lasting 90 days, Harvest lasting
60 days, and the Time of Gharns lasting 75 days
67
 making a year 285 days long. A Calendar date
would be written as follows: 15 Astria C2, 128
and read as Day 15 in the Time of Astria 128
years after the second calamity. Historians are
unaware of how the calendar was before the
first calamity.
Festivals
There are many small festivals, fairs, and
celebrations that happen each and every day
somewhere on the Great Isle. The largest of
these are celebrated in almost all the cities of
the Great Isle occur only a few times per year.
Gharns’ Festival
This holiday takes place during the middle of
the Time of Gharns. Critters honor the souls
to be gathered by Gharns’ and taken to the
heavens while celebrating the living with great
feasts around roaring fires to keep Gharns’ cold
at bay.
It is a tradition that all families burn at least
one sweet bun in a fire, sacrificing it to Astria.
Priests say she enjoys delicious pastries above
all other mortal foods.
Harvest
On the last day of autumn, many critters
prepare a large feast to celebrate the completed
preparation for the Time of Gharns. It is said by
many priests that during this night the Heralds
of Gharns, ghostly apparitions and monsters,
visit the natural world. It is a tradition for
young critters to leave out sweets to appease
these spirits in return for good fortune (often
gifts from their family). Adult critters enjoy
dressing up as spirits or using magic to fool
children during the nights leading up to the
Harvest meal.

Height of Astria
On the longest day during the Time of Astria,
a great baking competition is held at the
Ember Keep drawing hundreds
of competitors and thousands
of spectators. But during this
time across the Great Isle, many
cooking and baking competitions
take place to celebrate the Height of
Astria.

Delicious Foods are highly celebrated

among critters. Baking and cooking
competitions draw large crowds during
festivals and celebrations. The largest baking
competition on the Great Isle takes place at
the Ember Keep during the summer solstice.
Hundreds of critters travel to the keep to
compete for the title of The Grand Baker.
The Ember King, along with the past winners
judge the competition. The best bakers are
celebrities among common and noble critters
alike with their fans often flying colors and
banners of their favorite baker.

Night Fungi are purple and black

they can eat. These wisps have been known to
confuse critters using the stars to navigate.
Wisps are not considered harmful, but if they

 Goblins
Goblins were once critters who were corrupted
by a great evil in an age long forgotten and
are now filled with greed, hunger for flesh,
and a lust for power. Goblins live in roaming
packs on almost every corner of the Great Isle
where they eke out a life as bandits, pirates, or
marauders. Trade caravans hire adventurers
to protect their goods when traveling from city
to city as they are often the target of goblin
attacks. On occasion, goblins are henchmen
to more powerful critters or monsters. In
these situations, they are usually hired muscle
or fodder for the front lines. Goblins are not
considered very intelligent, but once in a
generation, a goblin is an excellent tactician and
96
leader that can organize a horde which can lay
siege to cities and kingdoms. Unlike underlings,
goblins are not affected by sunlight.
G
oblins can refer to a great number
of creatures, but most often it refers to
the smallest of the goblins, scholars call them
Goblin Goblins. Like many of the smaller
creatures that reside on the Great Isle what
goblins lack in size they make up for in numbers
and the sheer viciousness of their nature.
Goblins often roam in disorganized packs of
4-12. But much like their kobold cousins goblins
will flee a fight to save their own tails if it is clear
they cannot overpower their victims. Goblins
are usually commanded by a larger creature or
monster that can use the threat of violence to
control the unruly things.
Pack Attack: Goblins who raid in packs 6 or greater
gain +1 damage.
Cowardice: Goblins will attempt to flee any
encounter where they are outnumbered.

W asps are another typical bug that can
pose a danger to traveling critters. These
bugs are found in the forests, coastal, and low
lands of the Great Isle. Wasps spend a majority
of their time hunting prey. Once they locate a
meal, they will immobilize it with venom and
either carry off their meal to be consumed in
their nests or are fed to their young. Wasp hives
can number in the 100s and pose a significant
threat to small villages and cities.
C entipedes are found in the forests
and underways of the Great Isle on a

A nts are one of the most numerous and
varied bugs in the wilds. Ants live in large
colonies that fiercely protect their territories
from intruders. There are domestic ants that
were tamed many hundreds of years ago. These
ants have had the dangerous aspects of their
nature bred out of them, unlike their wild
cousins who are naturally armed and armored.
Black Ant Black Ants are common in the fields, hills,
and lowlands of the Great Isle living in colonies
consisting of 300-1500 ants. Black ants are

therefore the least dangerous of the wild ants.

grow into the thousands.
Giant Ants are large green ants that are found
in the forests of the Great Isle. Unlike smaller
ants, giant ant colonies only number in the
tens growing on average to 20-30 ants. The
colonies of the giant ants can be located in large
trees where they tunnel into the wood of the
tree. Giant ants are herbivores, preferring to
eat the leaves of trees and ferns, but will attack
any creature that poses a threat to them or
the colony. If they kill a creature, the giant ant
will use its corpse to grow mushrooms for the
colony to eat. Critters that live near giant ant
colonies are known to carry fungi with them. If
they encounter a giant ant, they will throw the
mushrooms to distract the giant, who would
much rather eat then engage, while the critter
makes a quick escape.
T hunder beetles are a rare bug
known to live on the coastal shores of the
Great Isle. Most often found among the tidal
pools where they use their innate electrical

Treasure

115
 Treasure Caches
Treasure Caches such as secret cubbies or Using Mana Stones
chests are the most common loot. Treasure
caches primarily consist of coins, gems,
precious metals, and other valuables. On Fire Brand Mana Stone Longsword
occasion a cache may contain an uncommon
or rare magical item such as mana stones,
artifacts, potions, or accessories.

Wild Lands is meant to be a medium to high

magic setting, however, GMs are welcome to
adjust this to better fit their campaign or play
style.

Food
Everyone agrees that food, especially
delicious food can bestow magical effects on
those who eat it. Occasionally critters may
find some delightful foods tucked away in
treasure. These magical foods never spoil and
contain magical properties.

Artifacts
Before the first calamity, magical technology
had advanced far beyond today’s current
understanding. When Rasselbok was
banished to the void, Orsa changed the rules
of magic to hide away her secrets once more.
However, many magical accessories of the
first and second age, known as artifacts,
survived and are hidden away in the dark
corners of the isle or deep in old ruins.
Artifacts have no base value but have been
known to fetch a handsome amount at
auction.

Mana Stones
Mana stones are obsidian stones adorned
with magical runes. When a character places Fire Brand Sword
the stone to a weapon, they will magically
combine. When combined the power of the
stone is fused with the weapon which can
change the weapons physical appearance, A mana stone (Fire Brand) combined with a longsword

mana stone active. If a character is replacing
