Scarred Lands is a
d20 System fantasy
campaign setting, by
White Wolf under its
Sword & Sorcery brand.
Scarred Lands draws heavy inspiration from
Greek mythology.
Setting
The setting is set on the world of Scarn in a
post-apocalyptic era where the world is recovering from a horrific war between the
Gods and
Titans, which ended 150 years ago and left the land warped.
In need of a way to rid the world of the whimsical and dangerous titans, the gods - the children of the titans - decided to unite against their parents. However, the essence of the titans are inseparably bound to the world of Scarn, since they are the world's creators, and so the gods are obliged to simply incapacitate their parents instead of destroying them. Hacked to pieces and/or chained, the felled titans are a constant incentive for the titan-worshippers to resurrect their masters and for the divine races to continue fighting against the titanic abominations.
A great deal of the system's appeal comes from the detail of cultures, cities, governments and history given by the module books. There are also several continents which have been influenced in a lesser degree by the Titan/God war.
Titans
In the game structure, Titans have neither
Alignment, nor
Domains. Titans as described through the game are kin to
raw natural and universal power. Therefore giving alignment or domains assignments to these beings would be just like attempting to give them to a bolt of
lightning, or
gravity.
