Hi, my name is Khan and I am the person behind Devabhumi. I am of Indian origin, and I have always been interested in non-European rpg settings. There is such a treasure trove of untapped stories, monsters, and legends in Indian Culture, which can provide fresh and unique content for your campaigns. Devabhumi is a high fantasy TTRPG setting inspired by the history and epics of Ancient India. This setting features:

  • 100+ pages of lore
  • A karma mechanic
  • 6 new races
  • 20+ backgrounds and feats
  • And much more!

You can sign up for the Kickstarter here.

We are going live in a week!

I'm playing an Indian (Bangladeshi) themed Loxodon (elephant man) right now. It's great fun. I've been reading bits of Hindu religion to incorporate a specific morale stance on things. Eg, I think he'll have the view that he's going to have an arranged marriage when he gets back to his homelands, therefore won't be acting a sleaze (which I don't like anyway) in the game.
