The World of Kalyr

Unlike those people who start new RPG campaigns every six months or so, I've been using the same setting for almost all the games I've run for the past fifteen years or so, including the eight years old PBeM, the face-to-face game I ran for about five years before that, and the convention one-shots I've run in the last couple of years. Even after all this time, the setting is still evolving; you get a lot of depth after all that time.

The Kalyr Wiki has been around for quite a while. Originally it merely duplicated all my existing static web pages, but more recently I've added some new stuff. The latest entries cover Political Systems and Crime and Punishment. Food and Drink and Family Life and Customs, howerver consist only of a few sketchy ideas.

The great think about a Wiki is that other people can contribute and add ideas. I'd appreciate comments or further ideas, especially for the entries above.
