Broken Lands Gazetteer Expansion


 Today 21-12-2022 GMT time 22:47 it is the original New Year, and then we have 12 days of Yuletiden.

Overlapping all the mainstream known holidays, so we party all.
One if these is a gift I have made for all of you, My Yuletiden gift


The following was said in September 2016 several months after my Broken Lands research began in februari 2016, 11:45am began
viewtopic.php?p=183692#p183692

Now somewhat later in 2022 I have done what Sturm suggested, I am shittin me skirt due insecurity, anxiety and also as by some pride, for I compiled all canon and fanon, readjusted conflicts and contradictions, filled in the blanks, wrote lots of stuff regarding many things of the Broken Lands, added and readjusted Timelines, tied in the Troll Queen background, and even Immortality attempts going on amongst the Humanoids, I also brought dignity to the humanoids (beyond being labelled as gunfodder), giving them racial resect and much more cultural background. I also fulfilled my promise on more information on Baba Yaga.

I thank the creators of the Gazetteer 10 Orcs of Thar, which was the base I worked upon
I also Thank Gecko, Micky, Agathokles, Seer of Yogh (Geoff Gander), Sturm, John Calvin, Thorfinn Tait, Shawn Stanley, Greg Weatherup, Senarch (art), and some others on “The Piazza” for all their creations (On Pandius) and even direct help.
Without all of them I could not have created this
I also am very thankful for the proofreading by Aoz, and Greenbrier. Without their support and work, I would have given up on many times due my own insecurities and fears.
I finally succeeded in this quest.

I created two Languages
Gobbleton; http://pandius.com/gbbleton.html
and Tarsh; http://pandius.com/races.html#beastman

Only a few additional maps will be added in the future when finished, I still work on these;
A 1 mile Hex map of the Western Part of the Great Crater https://www.deviantart.com/6inchnails/a ... -936096608
and one of the Silver Sierras Before the Great Crater, https://www.deviantart.com/6inchnails/a ... -936090493
as well as a 1 mile Hex map of the Lower Broken Lands....https://www.deviantart.com/6inchnails/a ... -934601744
Yet I could no longer wait any longer....for otherwise my fear would prevent me from releasing it, as it did hinder me in writing and especially finishing it.

So here without further ado I present my most recent Compilation/Creation PDF; Mystara Gazetteer Expansion & Additions For the Broken Lands.


The next text is based on a weird vision I got when I mapped the Broken lands, and was mentally wandering in the Broken Lands when a Humanoid somehow did see me.It was the first time my fantasy and creation surpassed the border of reality.
Quantum Mechanics seem to decree that in an infinite universe all possibilities are possible...so maybe I did walk the Broken Lands in my mind. I hope you all can now image the same feeling and thought, and hope you all like this PDF. (Image by Senarch, Language in Gobbleton)

I hope you will all enjoy this work.
The creation was a rib from my life

Have fun enjoy life love and gaming
Happy Yuletiden

Mystara's Great Crater of the Broken Lands 

Before & After Meteor impact 1007AC



Great Crater and Silver Sierras


Ok As Deviantart makes several common maps suddenly mature tagged, something truly ridiculous... and therewith unaccesible to all those not having an account there I need a place to place some of my maps thus affected somewhere else to allow them to be visible to all. 

Luckily I also have my own Blog, even if it was unused for a long time 

 So Here are two of the affected maps 
Keep in mind they are still worked upon almost daily, and as such are not fully finished until this line is removed!!!

The Silver Sierras before 1007AC when the meteor impacted
