Dawn of the Lantern

A world wiki for Meridia, the continent of the Jade Lotus campaigns. It's built first as a reference for running TRPG sessions, and later for games, fiction and other media.

The current focus is the two powers at the heart of the setting:

• The Kingdom of Aldoria, west of the great mountain spine.
• The Crimson Empire of Kaelen, east of it.

Sections

Section	What lives there
History	The deep timeline, eras, wars and turning points.
Religions	Faiths, churches, gods, heresies and holy places.
Items	Notable objects, materials and artifacts, such as Sunstone and the Ring of Ghost-Zero.
Characters	Rulers, player characters, NPCs and the dead who still matter.
Factions	Great houses, guilds, orders, courts and secret societies.
Rulings	Where sources disagreed, and how each disagreement was settled.

This wiki is the source of truth

The campaign handoffs and codex documents it was built from are references. When they change or disagree, the wiki records the decision on the Rulings page and only then updates canon.
