Hello I dont feel like doing much other than the basic right now, but maybe I will embelish this site another day. For now, this is it. Shalor is an original fantasy world created by Matt Walker, and is currently the setting for our weekly GURPS game. When I say 'our' I refer to Matt, Todd, Keith, Pat, Keith, Wendy, myself (Tom) and very very rarely Eric.
The reality Shalor exists in is fundamentaly different from Real Life reality. Aside from the obvious magic, monsters, and mayhem, the Shalor reality is comprised of many dimensions. Each dimension is encased in a crystal shell, with an etheral space on the outside of the spheres. This description will probably change after Matt gets around to writing up a better replacement :)
The actual world of Shalor is where our gaming takes place and is somewhere between tech level 3 and 4. Black powder is relatively common (or was before Khaost) and flintlock pistols, flintlock rifles, and canons are available. Shalor was originaly a world with normal mana levels, however a great cataclysm changed that making it a high mana world. Eventualy these mana fields were corrupted by the massive flood of demonic forces appearing on Shalor, making the use of unfiltered mana extremely dangerous... read about Khaost for the nitty gritty details.
The following races are available to players, others are sometimes (rarely) allowed:
Human Orc Half Orc Elf Dwarf Gnome Pixie Sylph Overman Buffowog Kobold Brownie Goblin Half Elf Troll Ogre Half Ogre Slipshade Drake
