from the foreword:
This is inspired by ideas I needed for my own campaign world in the area I call The Broken Lands, it is based on the Range and Basin Province of the western United States and northwestern Mexico. It has mountains, valleys, high plateaus, rocks, caves, rivers, canyons, and deserts, all very dry.
A lot of this was in loose or vague notes but most was in my head. It was greatly in need of organizing those notes and thoughts for more easily running the game in that area. It also makes for a good RPG supplement to share with others. I hope it inspires you to create many sessions of adventure!
user note:
There are references to fantasy tropes throughout the text, a lot of the material could also be applied to other genres. The text has no game statistics, it refers to a few creatures by name only.
