Golarion is the world (the planet to specific) in which the majority of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game takes place. The campaign setting itself is comprised of nations, continents, planets, and entire planes of existence. The campaign setting as a whole is far to in depth and detailed to be able to put here in the forum but, you can find general information as well as references of where to find more information regarding various aspects of the setting. As this is forum is intended to be used by a relatively closed group of gamers and this is intended to be a "living campaign setting" based around them the setting here may have deviations to it based on the actions of players and their characters that is not considered canon.

 

As various campaigns being and progress, the history of events will be updated and change to reflect their outcomes. This is meant to allow players the ability to feel as though the world is actually persistent and that they can have an effect on it. GMs are welcome to reference events from campaigns that have taken place near where their current players are at to add this flavor to the game (and will give players who had characters in those other campaigns a sense of accomplishment of sorts).

 

The start to this project isn't all that daunting as there are not very many campaigns currently taking place in this "living campaign setting" nor are there many players in this semi-closed group but, over time it could possibly grow into a more detailed endeavor. As it does the assistance of both players and GMs may be required at some point down the road to make the task a little easier. It should also be noted that campaigns should be kept relatively in the same range of fantasy level and player power. Not all campaigns have to be part of the living campaign. As a matter of fact the only time a campaign will be considered to effect the living campaign is if the GM requests it. Otherwise the campaigns will be considered as "isolated" campaigns and what happens in them will not effect the world as a whole.
