  • It's been almost 20 years since the release of the last D&D Oriental Adventures supplement and it doesn't seem like they will be releasing an update anytime soon. So in this new series, I am going to explore ways how we can reimagine Kara-Tur if I was put in charge of the supplement.
    In this Reimagining Karatur episode, I'm covering the Island Kingdoms, D&D's Indonesia. This time, I will be drawing inspiration from their practice of incorporating their local gods into the Hindu pantheon.

    This series should be a source book. I’d buy it.

    Any chance to use our favorite passtime to inform and inspire is greatly appreciated, and I am grateful to have learned more from this series. Thank you, CJ.
    ... also: beware invoking the Pinoys. The moment they hear anything about themselves, they'll start coming out of the wood work in droves!
    ... ah crap. Too late.

    The deities and pantheon is such a neat idea! Trying to get your little god more powerful or injected into a pantheon is similar to what I did in my first DnD 5e campaign, so it's cool to see it here.
    What countries are left to be reimagined for Kara Tur?

    8:22- Yeah, to be honest, they could also use it as a staging point for Kara-Tur Adventure like a multi-national Faerunian colony ala Manilla, where you can buy transit or get contracts.

    Love binging this playlist,
    Southeast asian themes should have been explored more as like Ayutthaya, Taungoo, Cambodia (Angkor and Longvek Eras), Laos, the Philippines , Malaya, Borneo and Vietnam.
    Many were formidable military, economic , and naval powers.

    I think it might be called "Indian Islands" because they border the Indian Ocean, not because they were literally just India but islands.

    I'm not Indonesian,
    Yeah I would love to have a setting with Island Kingdom that cover the thematical of South East Asia (Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei, Southern Thailand and Singapore), Melanesia, Micronesia and Polynesia. Where the water adventure is prominent and a lot of sea theme subclass.
    I try do some digging, Bawa location in Toril is nearby equator not far from Malatra region.

    In Indian Hinduism there is also a Supreme Being, similar (from what you have said) to Acintya, who is called Brahman. All other deities are interpretations of/ways to reach Brahman, and there is a part of Brahman in everyone called Atman, which can be translated as 'soul'
