The main continent of Hökaland.

Welcome to the Hökaland Wiki. Please see the introduction for more information on the world. It's currently just populated by Leord (Gunnar Petzäll), the crazy sod who created the setting, but may or may not have additional authors in the future.

This wiki coves everything about Hökaland; the world itself, history, geology, religions and important characters. It also covers the Hökaland "meta game" that is still not permanently mothballed as well as Hökaland the online web strategy game. Currently it has 425 articles and 501 pages (includes all types of pages such as categories).

A large focus on this wiki is unsurprisingly on Dungeons & Dragons as wells as Pathfinder rules, since the setting was originaly concieved as a campaign setting and then just took off on its own. This includes attempts at making DnD/PF more adapted to the slightly darker and low-magic world of Hökaland.

This material supercedes and replaces whatever is left on the Obsidian Portal page for this setting.

Please note that this wiki is NOT in the public domain; see copyrights. To contact the author, see the about page. Contributions are greatfully accepted (well, if it fits).

Below are links for each section relating to the setting.

NOTE: If you want to help editing, an account needs to be made for you as the wiki is locked down to avoid spammers.

The World

To just get information about the setting, use these articles.

Roleplaying

A lot of this has to be updated to work with Pathfinder.

Campaigns

These are campaigns that are active/inactive in Hökaland.

Coin & Blood

Mercenary style campaign with on/off players: Phil, Dushyant, Joe, Gordy, Dan.

Uppsala BORK etc

Campaign that never quite took off. May do so in the distant future?

IP-Only

To-be-decided type of campaign with Lars-Åke, Pettri, Julle och Staffan.

Web Game

The game as it is sits on the UWE servers and was the Digital Media Project of my Web Design degree.

More Spam; now sorted

I haven't had the energy to work on this wiki since I got my job, just after the last post, and progress will continue to be slow. However, I did find and plugged the last spam issue as I had forgotten to remove anonymous editing. That's no longer possible.

I may make a separate wiki that only I can log in to and have stuff that I don't want to be public be there, but that will also have to wait until I magically have the energy to finish that book...

Anyways. Always a pleasure to log in here. See you!

Dwarves!

I have started working on the finer details of the dwarven homelands, which are really unknown to most non-dwarves. The massive Gabilgathol "gem" populated by dwarves. To do so I also needed to specify pitch quartz, the material of which it is made.

Spam prevention and Flora

The wiki had its first spammers a few days ago so yesterday I changed the wiki so you can't add pages as anonymous and you can't create accounts. However, if you (who are reading this) would like to help out for whatever reason, contact me and I'll just make an account for you.

Also made a massive update on flora.

Domain/hosting move

Not noticeable in the wiki (fortunately), but took a great deal of time was to move hokaland.com from being my main domain for me (I'm using GunnarPetzall.com as the main domain now) which meant making a new wiki installation and fiddle with the database backup. After much ado, it's at least working fine again in the same location on the web (and a different location on the server) and any links work fine as far as I know...

Content rush

Added a lot of content and editing/moving existing stuff into useful shape.
