[[Otan]] is a wide and complex world of fantasy from the mind of Robyn Blaber.  [[Otan]] was originally created to be '''notes''' for a series of fantasy novels, the first which is currently underway.  Meanwhile, these notes are serving double duty, creating a repository for a fantasy role playing game of our own design.

==Welcome to the Lands of Otan Wiki==
 
 
Through our game, nearly two dozen people have experienced life on [[Otan]] first hand, a number we hope to grow. These players and their characters have been travelling between countries, encountering strange new creatures, and meeting the people of faraway lands.  While [[Otan]] is a great setting for low-level parties, it is a '''phenomenal''' setting for high level parties, with intrigue around every corner.

This wiki was created both to manage the fantasy world of [[Otan]], while sharing lore about [[Otan]] with players in our games.  In the future, this site will provide an excellent resource for both players and game masters alike as they learn more about this unique setting.  Official [[Otan]] rules for our game series, with complete gaming stats will soon follow.
 
  
Of course, elements specific to other games will likely not find their way into the [[Otan]] novels, there may be crossover in any future published rules to make the lands of [[Otan]] compatible with other RPG systems.  Our own gaming system is planned to come available to the public early next year... and may involve a Kickstarter campaign.

This wiki was created to manage the fantasy world of Robyn Blaber, created for his anticipated fantasy novel series.  Doing double duty, the fantasy world and wiki is currently being play tested in a Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition setting, where real players are experiencing this universe first hand.  While many aspects of the game will be represented on the wiki, those specific to Dungeons & Dragons will not find their way into the novels.
