The Local Game

The campaign originated in 1985 and was authored by Jerry Phelps for his local D&D game in Wichita Falls, Texas. That game is still going strong and the local group gathers weekly to play and socialize.

Here is a reminiscence by JK Franklin of the start of the Wold and the first moves online.

The First Move Online

The Wold campaign setting went online in 1996. Our first location was located on free AOL pages and was very primitive. We adapted a little "guestbook" program, changing it into message boards. Later, we graduated to java-programmed message boards, thanks to one of our players who is a computer programmer.

Those early sites and boards still exist, both on the public Web and archived by the Wayback Machine. Here are some very early Woldian links:
