This game and setting are a project I've been working on in some shape or form since 2021, or even earlier. One might call it a fantasy heartbreaker, and they would not be wrong. Aetherworlds draws a lot of inspiration from D&D and Pathfinder, and less so from other TTRPGs, though I have been looking into Lancer, BitD and MotW to get a better idea of what can be done. Even within the D20 niche, I intend for Aetherworlds to differentiate itself through a stronger emphasis on strategic gameplay, stronger character, attribute and combat balance, and its own setting that integrates and explains common RPG tropes rather than handwaving them away.

An overview of the game is always available here: https://notebook.google.com/notebook/9628db6c-455c-4534-9ef8-ba02ad7d57ae

Using the AI assistant is fully optional. You can also simply read the files attached to the notebook, though I cannot guarantee that they are complete or organized at this stage.
