The Fall of Shakark, Thillonrian myth

Another great piece from cwslyclgh. I dig on folklore and myth, and Wes delivers in this one.

I especially liked that someone is tackling Vatun being a native god who was adopted by the Suloise refugees who settled in Thillonria.

I liked it too. As odd as it might seem, I like the unnaturally rapid transition from block of ice to land of bounty. It adds to the folkloric quality. Not to mention the evil waiting to be unleashed.

Hey, thanks for the cool article. It's a tale that could be expanded upon *hint*.

I really dig this piece of backstory. It reminds me of my old 2nd edition Thillonrian campaign that dealt with similar issues. I just wish I had used Vatun as effectively. Really cool Wes.
