Gloom World is a project to create a setting based on themes found in a 'Dying World' setting.
The Oldfather sits on his throne on the Godmount, his mind vacant, his body withered, consumed by dementia and useless. The world rots in sympathy with him, the Last Dwarf died in the halls of the Diamond Palace clutching an axe it is uncertain if starvation or tunnel crawlers claimed him first, the great Tree Cities of the Green Isle withered and with them the elves, the Slave Pits of the Orkish Capital are empty, their great industrial works silent. Only humans remain, and the beast folk, the vermin races, goblins, kobolds, and more. Every day crops fail, livestock grow sick and die, the cities crumble one by one and the gods, consumed with grief do nothing to save the world.
The Sun Goddess plays her harp half heartedly and farmers suffer shorter days because of it.
The god of sea and earth rages turning the oceans into a monster infested maelstrom and causing the earth to rumble in sympathy.
The Mother goddess tends the husk of her husband, ignoring her duties to women around the globe and birth rates drop.
War has been chained to a great stone outside of heaven for the crime of attempting to slay the Oldfather that he may be laid to rest, wars have become cold things of paranoia and stocked resources. Daggers in the shadow and pointed words.
The Goddess of time drinks herself to sleep causing patches of land to flutter between eras and sending mortals back and forth across the ages.
Only the trickster god, barred from heaven, labors to save the world but even his endless schemes may not be enough to save humanity and end The Rot.
