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!

How much is system specific? I don't really play DND or other d20 games much anymore. Playing Fate now, for instance.

I'd say 30% of it is system specific, with stat blocks and items. The remaining 70% is lore, worldbuilding, gods, etc.
