The Lore Observer
Hello!
The Lore Observer is a project started by Leonardo and Milo, two writers and gamers passionate about worldbuilding and creative writing.
We develop contents for Tabletop Roleplaying Games (TTRPG) such as maps, some concept art, settings and other worldbuilding bits. We may venture on other things too, like adventures and small experimental games.
The Blog
Our blog started as a narrative experiment and home of many things we created in years of worldbuilding and roleplaying. In there, everything is narrated by an unfortunate traveler locked inside an endless library who wants to document all his findings. We are planning to make it home of our TTRPG related assets and games too.
100 Maps of Fantasy Islands
The first commercial project we dove into, during the Make 100 initiative on Kickstarter. It's a book containing, well, 100 maps of fantasy islands. The cool thing is that the lore and description of the majority of the islands has been crowdsourced by our backers. Amazing stuff.
