Welcome to Väruld – a world made for writers, game masters, and story-first adventurers.

Väruld is not centered on fighting but focuses on exploring the world and human interaction. It is system-agnostic.

All material published after 2025 has an introduction to the world of Väruld, just like this free material. So this is all you need to get started.

Who is Väruld for?

Any game master who plays RPG and needs a large, medieval-themed setting.

Writers looking for a rich setting to place their stories or RPG adventures in. You are free to write and publish as long as you refer to Väruld and link to this page. Send me a message and I'll (probably) link to your material.

Lifetime supply

If you enjoy Väruld, I recommend you consider this option. As of this date, yes, it costs more than all the products together, but Väruld is under development, and there will be far more material than this cost within a few years, if things go as planned.

Use of AI

I have no problem using AI when it helps. Väruld is still very much my world and my creation.

What happened to Väruld books 1 and 2?

I decided that it was not a good idea to pack the countries three at a time and add some random other information about the world into it, too. I felt Väruld became a better product by having the material reasonably stand-alone, with books about specific countries and books about special subjects concerning more than one country. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
