We started out playing D&D when I was a freshman in HS, and my brother was in fifth grade. The year was 1979. My brother was our DM for the next four years, and he ran two D&D campaigns. The first was based around the city-state of Cuh, or maybe Cos. Towards the end of that campaign, he situated it on an island landmass not-too-dissimilar from Ireland. The second campaign, and our longest-running one, was an evil campaign set in a vaguely Anglo-Saxon world.
It's local lord was King Gary (hence the Gygax pictorial homage above). I'm lousy at creating maps, so I tend to work with what's already available. Say, like our planet Earth. So my Falkirk is based o a fairly skewed, Dark Age -themed, European milieu. I've renamed and moved around some location names to fit my own personal aesthetic. This is not without some literary precedent, though. It is my bespoke / homage campaign that harkens back to those HS days when we played D&D in the basement and populated with the Legacy characters we used to play. I've alredy done a fair amount of world-building for it.
So I'll be pushing through updates, sharing some of that content as I move forward o the project.
