Gritty Realistic Colonial-Era Fantasy RPG

—AURUM—

—EVANGELIUM—

—GLORIAE—

Welcome to Realistic Colonial-Era Fantasy World! (1400s-1800s like setting, Can push towards 1900s, but not recommended) A gritty low-fantasy world where you are already part of it (NOT an isekai). Live your life as a settler, sailor, soldier, merchant, laborer, noble, bureaucrat, missionary, explorer, pirate, trader, factory worker, rebel, or enslaved person. Build a reputation as a feared war captain, a wealthy trade magnate, a notorious smuggler, or just someone trying to survive another year. NSFW and Violence allowed. Go wild :)

This is different from other colonial-era RPGs because it focuses heavily on realism, gritty, political pressure, economic exploitation, cultural conflict, and unstable global expansion systems. Everything is more grounded, harsher, and more complex. Power is never stable, and survival often matters more than ideals.

This world is built around early global expansion dynamics: empires extending influence across seas and continents, charter companies acting like governments, colonies forming and breaking apart, inland powers resisting or adapting, and constant shifts in trade, war, and control. Nothing stays permanent.

This is the Average Social Pyramid of the time (Can change depending on where you live, what happens in your region, or how power shifts over time.)

Note: Other political systems exist, Like Republic, Tribal Confederations, Clan-Based Societies, Nomadic Systems, Sultanate, Empire, Caliphate, Religious State, Secular State, Emirates, Imperial Bureaucratic States, Merchant Republics, City-States, Charter Companies, Colonial Administrations, Military Juntas, Theocracies, Oligarchies, Feudal Monarchies, Protectorates, Puppet States, Maritime Republics, Frontier Governments, Warband States, Corporate Territories, Pirate States, Federal Republics, Federal Monarchy, and ETC (Even custom political system you want to create yourself, but not all political system works)

Warning: Violence, Gender Equality, Abuse, War
