The Realms Within is a campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game. Created by Jack Mackay (also known as the host of Cloud Five), the Realms began in mid-2022 as a setting for his private campaigns with his friends. Following the first session within the Realms, he began writing a series of supplementary lorebooks on a blog designed to flesh out the storylines and world of the setting, alongside being a public forum for interaction with his D&D group.The land of Iademesne is commonly known as 'The Realms Within' due to its position at the centre of two encompassing divine powers: the Iasong - a.k.a the melody of creation, sung into being by creator Goddess Ia - and the snakelike all-seeing Haan Ifel who physically guards against invasion by the pantheon of Outer Horrors. The setting is characterised by the physical absence of its wounded Gods, its long history of Demigods and dragonriders, and its emphasis on political intrigue and other Dark Fantasy trappings.Not to be confused with the Forgotten Realms, the most popular D&D setting.

Religion of Evil: Worship of Outer Horrors involve spades of torture, ritual sacrifice and Blood Magic. Ilsa, a maid to the Zeitrich family, was a victim of such practises.

Crapsack World
 The Realms Within (Tabletop Game) / int_21d70919
comment
Crapsack World: After the Sundering, in which the landscape was ravaged by divine war and the arrival of the Outer Horrors, the remaining, injured Gods retreated from the Realms. Historical objects of wonder, such as the giant greatwyrms and the Demigod dynasties, went extinct during the Age of Cinders. Now, countless mortal nations war over the godless lands, with war and bloodshed commonplace.

By naming conventions alone, Kastalav can be seen as a fusion of German and Slavic cultures, though with a far greater emphasis on witchcraft and Blood Magic.

comment
Fantastic Drug: Capilla is a particularly nasty drug that causes bloodshot eyes, heightened heart-rate, and feelings of intense paranoia that can turn to bloodlust upon an overdose. Jittercoal, harvested from the Sunless Lands, is a powerful narcotic that instils feelings of euphoria and camaraderie.

Wretched Hive: The Time Heist arc portrays Kastalav - Gorgarten in particular - as a nest of crime, with corrupt and sadistic nobles mixed in for good measure. Correnwald is an oppressive and grimy swamp town where the corrupt lord allows moonshine gangs to run riot.

Dark Is Not Evil
 The Realms Within (Tabletop Game) / int_575fd5e2
comment
Dark Is Not Evil: The Sunless Lands, a land covering a vast swathe of the unnamed western continent, is a land of eternal night and is home to the drow (dark elves). However, Sabian and Visimar remember it fondly as a land of dark beauty. Sabian himself is an example. Despite being grey of skin, dressed all in black and skulking in the shadows, Sabian is the only member of the Rattlesnakes to have a Good alignment.

Fantastic Racism: Humans are bad for it, but the elves are even worse. Confining themselves to consecrated enclaves, they refuse contact with the outside world for fear of 'intellectual contamination.'

Fantasy Counterpart Culture
 The Realms Within (Tabletop Game) / int_57d43e40
comment
Fantasy Counterpart Culture: Seen in many of the nations. Alagost is heavily inspired by a fusion of Anglo-Saxon and Celtic cultures. Conversely, the swamp town of Correnwald resembles an Old Western frontier, with guns swapped out for crossbows. By naming conventions alone, Kastalav can be seen as a fusion of German and Slavic cultures, though with a far greater emphasis on witchcraft and Blood Magic.

God-Emperor: Many of the Demigods can be seen as these: The self-styled 'God-Emperor Hazeran' is the most famous demigod in history, ruling a powerful empire that spanned two continents. High King Ceonred, who united the Swamp Kings and Storm Kings of Alagost and led a bloody war against Armathain.

Divine Conflict: A staple of the setting's mythology. The Sundering - possibly the most important event in the Realms' history - was a divine war of titanic proportions that the Gods are still recovering from. Not to mention when the Outer Horrors got involved.
