I did a small amount of googling and discovered a lot of Irish history went into creating the maps and creatures.

The fir bolg, real stories of them but I don’t think they were monsters

Champion sreng actually existed , he fought Nuada 1 handed!

The Connacht (Irish people may already knew) exists

I saw some stuff about Dian cecht

A load of stuff about Gods

Hrungnir existed except he was someone who died in a fight against Thor after being drunk and abusive in Valhalla

Efnisein existed, he was basically a psychotic mad man.

I came across this one thing mentioning snorri

The titan ymir? Exists !

I even found stuff talking about the existence of the otherworld and portals to get to it

All this information, I knew research went in but most of it I believed was a fabrication .
Honestly the effort to find it all and turn it into a game is quite cool, now time for a spam of photos of what I discovered . If you have any share em alongside this

Anyone curious about celebrations

On Celtic we only do Samhain, Yule, ostara and Beltane but there are others too, Mabon has just passed

Even the server names have lore behind them.

Gwydion, for example, is supposed to be a trickster. Very neat stuff.

Well Arawn is the Celtic god of the dead, war, revenge and terror.

Perfect.

It’s actually kinda cool that they did all this with the research and everything. MAYBE do some events that corresponds to the world’s name :twisted:
