Please feel free to wander about, and to make changes that improve the site. If you are a Woldian, then please do add content as well. If you are a visitor, we may revert content changes that introduce errors into the canon -- but please do browse and edit anyway. That's what a wiki is for. Any questions, click on the discussion tab and ask them there. We'll be checking recent changes, and will see when a change hjas been made to a discussion or main page. We'll assume any addition to a discussion page is a request for help. |
The campaign originated in 1985 and was authored by Jerry Phelps, for his local D&D game in Wichita Falls, Texas. That game is still going strong and the local group gathers weekly to play and socialize. The Wold campaign setting went online in 1996. Our first location was located on free AOL pages and was very primitive. We adapted a little "guestbook" program, changing it into message boards. Later, we graduated to java-programmed message boards, thanks to one of our players who is a computer programmer. (all hail "Jus"!) Currently we offer some 15 ongoing campaigns in various corners of the Wold Campaign Setting. All DMs, programmers, staffers, and players are volunteers. Basically, we're an online gaming club of about 90 great folk from every continent and walk of life.
Enjoy the campaign material. We ask that you give us credit for any material you find here that you choose to use.
