I’m making a 5e setting inspired by Ancient India!

Hi, my name is Khan and I am the person behind Devabhumi. I am of Indian origin, and I have always been interested in non-European rpg settings. There is such a treasure trove of untapped stories, monsters, and legends in Indian Culture, which can provide fresh and unique content for your campaigns. Devabhumi is a high fantasy TTRPG setting inspired by the history and epics of Ancient India. This setting features:
- 100+ pages of lore
- A karma mechanic
- 6 new races
- 20+ backgrounds and feats
- And much more!
You can sign up for the Kickstarter here.
We are going live in a week!
I'm playing an Indian (Bangladeshi) themed Loxodon (elephant man) right now. It's great fun. I've been reading bits of Hindu religion to incorporate a specific morale stance on things. Eg, I think he'll have the view that he's going to have an arranged marriage when he gets back to his homelands, therefore won't be acting a sleaze (which I don't like anyway) in the game.
Ooh, the idea of a South Asian Loxodon is cool!
I googled war elephants and got ancient India for inspo.
