New World - Aioskoru
kwickham:
Now seems like a great time to attempt at building a new world. I picked the name Aioskoru meaning Aios (ore) + koru (horn), which is the closest I could get to Proto-Indo-European version of Iron Crown.
I begin with a random skeleton, a solar system and a fractal world map, without any named features.
Everything put here by me and anyone that would like to add to it is entirely Open Game content, according to OGL 1.0.

I'm sure you don't mean it this way, but I visualized this literally: an endless dark void, a skeleton floating in its center. His right hand is held palm up, containing a tiny sun being circled by tiny orbs (tiny is relative). His other hand holds a scroll upon which a map has been drawn.
I'm sure there is a metaphor here, a metaphor of death and creation as one. A universe emerging from the dying ember of one that has gone before, and reached its end. What does the skeleton remember, and what did it sacrifice to persist?

I like it, jdale.
Legends name that ancient death creator - from which new life flows:
Hewhoshestes
ProtoIndoEuropean
hewhos - grandfather, [hest - bone, -es plural] bones = Grandfather Bones
kwickham:
The immense skeleton, Hewhoshestes, floated in the endless dark void, small strands of decomposed flesh still rotting in the joints and sinew.
From this remaining flesh, a few maggots emerged.
The more the maggots consumed the ancient death creator's flesh the more the power changed them. Instead of flies, they morphed and changed into the beings of power. They inched towards the right hand where the tiny orbs, slowly changing in form and substance.
The ancient skeleton in desperation, dipped a quill into a bottle with the ink of life. And then it began, upon the scroll, to create...

Sounds like a Doctor Who episode. ;D
