The Player Characters writing this stuff.

 Hu-A: Slugman Magician, radical Taoist Anarchist 

Ragnar: Yaksha-crossbreed 1 Warrior,  born and raised in Jötunheimr 2.

Krishna: Insane Yellow-City Human Holy-man 3.


Footnotes from The Translator (Aka, referee's thinly disguised author insert character):

1. Yaksha-crossbreed: gleaning from the manuscript, a Yasksha-crossbreed seems to be the offspring of a union between a Yaksha and a creature of some other kind.

2. Jötunheimr: a land towards the east from Yoon-Suin. Simply named Easteros by the inhabitants of Yoon-Suin. It is described as the frozen east, populated by uncivilized white-skinned subhumans. There are other brief, dismissing descriptions by writers from Yoon-Suin. (Referee's note: the joke is the European, Norse mythology inspired land is actually to the east of the Asian inspired land.)

3. The manuscript mentions Krishna spouting innate babbling and mad ravings of coming from a city supposedly called 'Singapore'. Could Krishna be from the earth from our time?

Yoon-Suin Companion Adventures

This is reference list of things I use when constructing and fleshing out my Yoon-Suin.   It is a broad list of history books, pulp fiction, folk-tales, picture books, and stuff that would be classed as Orientalist in nature. It is my expanded appendix N for Yoon-Suin for stuff that is not already in Yoon-Suin's appendix N. You can use it or not.  It is merely my springboard and I cannot put everything on it because my Yoon-Suin has been created within years of causal research on Asian folk-lore and religion.  Also, I do not endorse all the messages in these works, as written before, some of these works can be classified as Orientalist and though I am inspired by them, that does not mean I want to follow their example and I try to not have a racist, caricatured version of a made-up world loosely inspired by real world things. I am not trying to mystify or create an air of mystery around the real, actual places of Asia. In no particular order: Books: Hindu Folktales P...

Special Report from Another Reality: The Mad Monks and The Doom Pagodas

 This is a special session report detailing my first solo adventure tabletop game using Mad Monks of Kwantoom and Red Tide .  Here I will describe the session as well as give my feelings about the solo experience and my experience with using Mad Monks of Kwantoom . The setting is different from Yoon-Suin, but as well has that Asian flavor so I am using this blog to do the session report. The report is two sessions, one taking up most of one afternoon and another taking up an hour in the morning. Session one was me creating the characters and figuring out how to run the game as well as playing it. Session two was finishing up the adventure. Creating the characters was a bit troublesome since I had to figure out what game I was using since I don't have Labyrinth Lord which Mad Monks is used for. I tried using OSE thief rules for the monks, but found it too bothersome because of the complexity so I settled on using Delving Deeper's thief rules for the monks for ease of use....

Session recap of 03/19/2021

03/19/2021 We left from Arong’s place to head into Fairmead, but not before Ragnar made friends with a crab man—one of the strangest things I have observed since leaving the Yellow City. We stopped at the Sea God’s Temple to give Terry some space to prepare his holy water. We met the priestess there and hired her to be our new translator. After that, we went to the Dwarven Mercenaries HQ to speak with the local leaders about the threat of Ragu Lo. They not only offered us assistance, but also modified our plan to help it run more smoothly. We hired a luxury sailboat that will take us out to the junk, and from there we shall put our plan into effect. We went from the HQ to the hotel for the night. I noticed a fluttering piece of paper, which I picked up. The note was signed by Ragu-Lo... and it seemed that he knows about our plan. It was then that I noticed the moon seemed… off. It was fuller than it should’ve been that night. It seemed like it was… dripping.
