A Fantasy Adventure in the Land of the Elves
Shadowy caverns, red glowing seas, the heart of the Elven lands. Strange fashions, exotic cuisines, and extraordinary bathhouses. Embark on a journey through Meridian Malice.
MERIDIAN MALICE
In the deep darkness of the endless caves lies the glowing Crimson Sea.
Bloodworth, the gleaming jewel of elven cities, stands before you on the shore of the red glowing sea.
Your opportunity or your downfall.
Who will you be in the elven city?
Subject, scoundrel, or socialite?
Will you rise to top or drown in the blood-filled streets?
The city is not to be trusted. Beyond elves, adventure, and bathhouses, there lurks sinister powers in waiting.
Beware Bloodworth.
Oh, a Human? Most Curious
Let me have a closer look at you. I see fate has brought you far from home, all the way to the Elven lands. But why? A lust for adventure? Opportunity? Desperation? You have already travel though the darkness, but don’t be fooled, you have not come to safety in Bloodworth. Don’t trust what you see.
The Elves, you ask, who are they?
Crimson, Amber, Lerna, Fiend, Nyx, Valari… They elves are many and each stranger than the last.
Halt!

A few years ago, I got into the worldbuilding hobby and combined a desire to improve as an illustrator, I set out to create my own fantasy world. And here we are now, with quite the collection of drawings, diagrams, and lore pages. You might have seen some of them on Reddit already?
I’m taking a kind of “found footage” approach to my worldbuilding adventure. Imagine discovering and piecing together a fantasy world through various in-world artifacts, newspapers, research notes, maps, and ancient scrolls.
My ultimate goal is to turn all of this into a fully-fledged table-top RPG of my own.
What is the world of Malice?
Malice is a completely underground world, a continent-sized cave system where the darkness is ever-present. The focus is mainly on the city of Bloodworth, an elven port on the Crimson Sea that lights up this part of the cave. But the darkness of the inland and the pirate-infestedglowing red waters are far from the only dangers. The city is not to be trusted; it lures the unexpecting with promises of riches, glory, and more…
In an elf-eat-elf world, will you be the subject, scoundrel, or socialite—will you rise to top or drown in the blood-filled streets?
Can I use this world in my own game session?
Absolutely! Are you a GM scouting for a fresh location for your next campaign? Or perhaps you wish to integrating some of these elements into your own homebrew? By all means, go ahead! I’m all about sharing, inspiring, and igniting creativity within the TTRPG and worldbuilding community. Though make sure to join the Meridian Malice Discord and tell us about your adventures!
What's up with this website?
Is not yet complete.
I’m about halfway through uploading all old posts to the archive, it probably needs some proofreading, and I’m sure the mobile version could do with some tweaking.
So, if you find anything that is broken, misspelled, or missing, please let me (MerchantSwift) know either on Reddit or Discord.
