(LA) Lejendary Earth

[Scott]

Oerth had Greyhawk, Aerth Falcondonia, but it seems there is no Gem of Lejendary Earth. I asked Gary if he carried on the tradition in LA, and he said nope. The city of Ludnum on Brosten Island comes close, but that’s it.
I haven’t seen a map for Lejendary Earth, is Varan the North America of the setting as Vargaard was on Aerth?

No Varan is Europe.

Check out the cover of the gazeteer on this page

Hazgar is Asia. Apphir is Africa, Irohj is the Middle East-Asia.

Not shown on the cover is Anatis which is like North America. The Lejendary Earth (Learth) has quasi-medieval/pseudo-ancient cultures which mimic Aerth somewhat (A neo-Egypt, etc.) of which not unlike Dj's Vargaard has colonies from elsewhere. However, Anatis seems to have more variety of colonizing cultures than Vargaard. The adventure THE HERMIT takes place off the west coast of Anatis in an area which is essentially a "mega-Hawaii". The culture of the colonial kingdom of Eraxong, if you couldn't tell by the name of the ruler: Nupathurva, is of course Sumerian-Babylonian. Weird, huh?

That map looks more like Pangea than the continents in any form I recognize.

Yeah, the info and maps of Ludnum in The Canting Crew seem appropriate enough for the City of Greyhawk. Not to mention the subject matter in general. Regards.

[Falconer]

Is Learth just shorthand for Legendary Earth, or is it used "in-world", as it were? Does Gary use it? Regards.

[geneweigel]

Learth is being used by Gary on the Lejendary messageboards but i haven't seen it used in the books yet.

I'd like to see the setting from "The Eye Of Glory" novel expanded upon for within Learth.

I also wouldn't mind a cool globe of Learth. I know there's a company that makes custom globes but they didn't respond to an info request email.

I was really hoping to see a Gazetteer of Anatis.
