Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Winterweir is a 2009 Tabletop RPG setting that was released by C.T. Phipps and Michael Suttkus for the Savage Worlds system. The grim and gritty fantasy world of Teth-Ammon is the setting, a world that was colonized millennium ago by a draconic race called the Terra'ssar who proceeded to import all manner of species to the planet before promptly enslaving them. Eventually, the Terra'ssar destroyed themselves in a series of wars and left the survivors trapped on a planet filled with their failing genetic experiments.Despite its science-fiction origins for a lot of the setting fluff, Winterweir is a fairly straight fantasy setting in terms of what the locals know. Psychic Powers and Weird Science are treated as forms of magic or alchemy, respectively. One element that the authors repeatedly emphasize is that the setting is not a particularly nice place to live and the violence inherent in living on a "typical" fantasy world makes the locals pretty damn fatalistic. Most either embrace hedonism as a way to escape or become intensely grim.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Winterweir attempts to present itself as a fantasy game for older gamers, highlighting adult themes like sexuality and the racial tensions that frequently explode across the setting. Complex moral issues are also somewhat touched upon with the fact that there are no concrete good or evil solutions in the setting. The Honor/Integrity System is a centerpiece designed to encourage characters to adopt the somewhat bloodthirsty mindset of typical Teth-Ammon inhabitants. | |

Darker and Edgier: Perhaps a little too much effort goes into separating Winterweir from your typical campaign setting. | |

Our Elves Are Different | |
| Winterweir (Tabletop Game) / int_15fc9fb | comment |
Our Elves Are Different: There are no elves in the setting per se. The closest thing are the Half-Celestials, who are occasionally immortal and the Valken. The Valken are the typical woodland dwelling nature lovers who live a long time but they're also half-animals. | |

Order Versus Chaos | |
| Winterweir (Tabletop Game) / int_1a237409 | comment |
Order Versus Chaos: The central conflict of the setting is between the Netherdeep and the Celestials. Basic human nature also is set up to war against civilization and anarchy. | |

Our Orcs Are Different | |
| Winterweir (Tabletop Game) / int_1a303edf | comment |
Our Orcs Are Different: There's a couple of races that qualify. The Half-Jotuns who are former slaves and rather irritated by that fact, the Slythin who are Lizardmen with attitude, and the Trow who are pretty Orcish but mostly just irritated by the fact they're treated as target practice by humans. | |

| Winterweir (Tabletop Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Inverted. The continent of Alacarn is horrible but no worse than the real-life Dark Ages. It's also implied to be coming out of it into a Industrial Age/Renassiance. Well, barring the demons... | |

Our Dwarves Are All the Same | |

Our Dwarves Are All the Same: Bathas, despite being called differently. Are quite obviously dwarves when given even the most minuscule of glances. True their habits and ethics are similar to duergar but a rose by any other name is still a rose. Only in this case it's a dwarf. | |

Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: It's entirely possible to slay Demon lords and lesser gods in Savage Worlds. Averted in the Drakkath and Greater Gods who are given the "X" stat. Which makes them effectively omnipotent and invincible. | |
