When I first came across the Hazelands last month I knew I wanted to talk to its creator. Fortunately, Tine was happy to make the time to talk to me all about her unique setting for 5e and the whimsical miniatures she's sculpted to go along with it. The Hazelands is currently live on Kickstarter and fully funded and Tine shared the journey behind its creation and inspirations.
What are the Hazelands?
As a world. It is a place where frogs can be kings and where a teapot might hold a grudge. The wind carries gossip. The rivers keep secrets. And if you sit still long enough, you will surely be dropped in the middle of a legendary quest.
As a TTRPG setting.The Hazelands is rooted in the bones of European folklore, but it has grown its own branches. This is a world that rewards wit over brute force and clever thinking over simply hitting the nearest problem with a sword. Not that swords are useless, but they are rarely the most interesting solution. Fairytales have come to life and you will find yourself in the middle of saving silly kings and dancing with fickle fae. The contents of this book are compatible with fifth edition but can also easily be adapted to any role-playing game rule set.
The Hazelands is a world hidden behind a thick curtain of mist, where coincidence is the source of all magic and where adventures sprout up like singing flowers. Embark on an unexpected journey where you’ll meet strange creatures and solve their even stranger problems.
