Maztica Alive!

  Bantambairn Shire of the Pasocado Basin A New Location in Anchôrome visited by Achcauhtli the Traveler, who has only now remembered to add to his journal, ANS4 Once Across Anchôrome About The journal of the traveler Achcauhtli known as Once Across Anchôrome was my attempt to view locations in Anchôrome how it would appear to an explorer making their way through the region.  I really enjoyed putting the book together because it was a format I had never used before, and I got to tell a story while simultaneously adding game material and furthering the lore of Anchôrome. Phillip “Sleyvas” Wallace has expanded so much on the continent with a whole collection of articles and books which you can find on DMsGuild, each of which is linked here on this blog.  Sleyvas also has contributed tons of material to the lore in smaller chunks on the forums for Candlekeep, primarily in the thread Brainstorming Anchôrome .    When I saw his write up on the    Bantambai...

  Zompantli An additional detailed planar region for MZS2 The Maztican Cosmology About One of my personal favorite books in the Maztica Campaign is The Maztican Cosmology, tagged as MZS2 .  Originally, I had written a treatise on Xibalba  just as 5th edition was released and in its original form, it was a 3.5e supplement. Updated for 5e and released on DMsGuild it received a number of five star reviews and seemed a popular book. Because of this, I decided to write more individual books about each Maztican version of the heavens and hells (known collectively as temenos from the works of Douglas Niles), but first I completed an introductory book on the afterlife called The Great Pyramid .    Both original books are linked for nostalgia, but I no longer consider either of them “canon” since they were updated in MZS2.   When the books were combined and updated, the original intent was to write extensive coverage for ALL of the planes, but only Tlalocan, a ...

This is a new feature where I will be adding bonus materials to already established books.  For example, if I create a new Maztican Monster that didn't fit in MZS1 Monsters of Maztica , it will get its own new dedicated page here.  Stay tuned for extra material soon!

 What a pleasure it was to find this card game based off of monsters from Monsters of Maztica !  Each card is beautifully illustrated and the game is inspired by the game Top Trumps . Nula's Chosen:  Denizens of the True World

 It’s been almost a year exactly since my last post and I am hoping to get working on some old and new projects during a short upcoming break I have in work. Here’s a story I’m beginning about two interesting wemic brothers that will soon end up in Lopango. Hopefully, the story blossoms into something more. I’d like to expand it to contain as much information as I can regarding wemics   The Lions of Lopango The diversity of species in Lopango is legendary in its variety of peoples and cultures. Yet even here in a land of Gold Clad Giants, powerful scorpionfolk and death loving gnomes, few have seen beings the likes of Prr’tok and Gerrik. The Lions of Lopango as they are known, are of a species of humanoids known as wemics; lion-centaurs who exist in great numbers in other parts of the world. These two “siblings” however, are believed to be unique in the Land of Fire where lions or their humanoid counterparts are thought to be unknown.  The pair are not true brothers but h...

PSS3 Dark Payit There's a reason that Dark Payit didn't even appear hear in the Workshop at any point.  I had started working on this years ago and then abandoned the project even before Ravenloft was updated for 5e.  I picked up the 5e conversion recently and it inspired me to take the project back up and I managed to put together all the materials I had in a single evening.   The description on DMsGuild reads: A New Ravenloft Domain based off the setting of Maztica! Following the Era of the Immortals in Maztica came what was known as the Golden Age of Payit. This was a time of plenty for all of Maztica when humanity flourished. Payit and Far Payit both excelled in culture, developing in technology, medicine, astronomy and magic. Though this Golden Age has no official start or finish, the murder of the beautiful Princess Aliah was widely believed to be the herald of its downfall. Destined to marry her half-brother Xetl, a jealous suitor named Tacal who was himself p...
