In the spirit of trying to get something off the ground, does anyone
have any ideas about the cities of the Hanse in the DA setting?
The Hanseatic League first really takes official form in 1241, when
Hamburg (which has an outline in DA : Europe) signs a treaty with
Lubeck (which has no information that I know of). Since the Hanseatic
League are such big players in northern Europe for the next 250 years
or so, Lubeck in particular looks like a great place to base a Dark
Ages campaign. Your characters are there at the establishment of a
major power in commerce in politics in Europe, so Vampires will feel
right at home. For your Werewolves, we have the Danish peninsula to
the north, and forested areas to the south. This territory is in
Vaelderman, Old Faith, Hermetic and Spirit-Talker areas just off the
top of my head, so your Mages are catered for. If you want to use the
excellent DA : Inquisitor material, then all of the Orders are viable,
and then when DA : Fae appears, we're slap-bang in German folk-lore
areas.
So this is a great area to set a campaign. Does anyone have any
information on Lubeck both in the DA material, or from historical
sources, that might be useful? I have a fair amount of information,
but there's all sorts of things I'd like to know. In particular, what
buildings exist in Lubeck in 1230?
Or does anyone have any ideas of interesting DA settings?
Cheers,
Charlie
