Midgard Worldbook for 5th Edition

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Adventure In a Dark World of Deep Magic for 5th Edition!

It is an age of war. Civilization slowly gives way to encroaching wilderness, and once-mighty empires now lie beneath the waves. Only magic and the warmth of hope keeps lights aglow when dread things prowl, and priestly wardings are bent by demonic rage.

The omens are dire. The roads to the shadow realm are open again, and the fey have returned to claim their ancient tribute. In the north the giants prepare for Ragnarok, while the goblins in the west grow restless. In the Crossroads, the shadow of the vampire princes falls across the land. The World Serpent is stirring—and not even all-knowing Baba Yaga can say what will happen next.

Now more than ever, Midgard needs 5E heroes to stand against the dark, driving it back with spell, steel, and cunning!

The 460-page Midgard Worldbook for 5th Edition includes:

  • Detailed description of Midgard's empires, cities, and kingdoms, with associated heraldry, rulers, and adventure hooks for each state, large or small
  • Characters from Baba Yaga to the lords of the Dragon Empire, from the honest folk of Zobeck to various elven holdouts of Dornig and the vampire lords of Morgau
  • Full lore on the pantheons of the Northlands, Crossroads, Elves, and others, including domain lists, rituals, divine demands, and the various masks and sacred texts—plus rituals and ambitions of the Dark Gods, for the GM's eyes alone!
  • Setting-specific lore of the planes, history, calendars, and conflicts of the world to enrich your stories and campaigns
  • Forbidden lore of blood magic, void magic, and various dooms and items not meant for players' eyes!
  • A complete Index of the book's people, places, and major terms
  • Encounter tables for each region of the setting and the planes!
  • And much more!

Start your next campaign off right—put your 5th Edition D&D players on a dark road!

Is there a reason that the Swords & Wizardry version of the Midgard Setting isn't available here on DriveThruRPG ?

It seems to be about the same page count as the 2018 book; the additions are the complete Index of the book's people, places, and major terms, as well as the Encounter tables for each region of the setting and the planes.

There are stats for vampire lords in the Tome of Beasts and Creature Codex, though not for individual NPCs.

Primarily, the Pathfinder appendix has been removed and replaced with an index and regional encounter tables. In addition, Pathfinder references have been removed from the Pantheon chapter and similar rules-specific areas.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
