Here is a quick setting summary for you to look at…
This setting predominantly takes place on the recently discovered continent of Caridecosta or the Bountiful Coast. The story of this continent begins to the east and across the ocean known as the Boundless Depths where lies the continent of Areslos. This continent was thrown into war when the Alexandara Empire, in a traitorous attack, invaded and subjugated the dwarves of Founder's Declaration and forced them to craft the arms and armor that they used in an attempt to conquer Areslos. This would be known as the Alexandara War. The war ended when The Imperial Princess, Artemisia Alexandara, killed her mother and staged a coup. This period of civil war where the princess fought against the Loyalists would later be known as the Throne War. Peace would eventually come to Areslos, but so much damage had already been done. Establishing a council, so that no one person would ever hold true power, Artemisia Alexandara encouraged growth and exploration to find new lands and resources to repair their continent. Through this Caridecosta was discovered and a jointly constructed city named Chespire was founded. Hopeful for the future, Artemisia turned over complete control to the council and in an act that would later be known as The Night of Gold Blood oversaw the complete extermination of the Alexandara bloodline and then committed suicide.
Chespire sought to be a land where people could find new beginnings on a new continent and set to map out fiefdoms to be given to those involved in the Alexandar and Throne wars. The Fief of Artara was given to New Erar the former seat of the Alexandara Empire. The Fief of Nienore was given to the Grove Concord an alliance of elven territories. The Fief of Dewal Coast was given to the Freeholder Federation a group of minor territories brought together to resist the Alexandara Empire. The Fief of Survivor's Rest was given to the Founder's Declaration, but they felt they deserved more after how much they had suffered during the Alexandara War. Many abandoned Survivor's Rest, leaving it to become a lawless haven to bandits and would be tyrants, and journeyed South-East to claim a mountain they would call Jaferlum's Hope from a clan of giants. A fifth fief, Porticul Fief, would be mapped out when, across the Manticore's Tail Mountains to the North of Chespire, it was discovered that Imperial sympathizers had founded a city known as Cindersel lead by the clergy of the Sempeternal Empire who believe that one day the True Empress or a Divine heir will return to lead them.
The Alexandara War and the Throne War lasted for a combined 39 years. The Alexandara War started 71 years ago. Not even considering longer lived races such as Elves and Dwarves there are still a great many veterans of these two wars who must deal with the physical and mental scars of the conflicts.
Caridecosta was discovered fairly recently and is quickly expanding but the oldest building constructed by people from Areslos will only be 27 years old.
Magic and its existence is more or less common knowledge. Everyone might not have seen a spell get performed in front of them, but they know that it is a possibility. This means that there are currently no organized places of learning where magic is the sole course of study but rather smaller circles that trade information and ideas.
The Alexandara War and the Throne Wars being so close to one another resulted in death on a scale that Areslos had never had to deal with. Due to this, necromancy and corpse eaters have become an issue that guilds and laws had to be put in place to control. On Caridecosta the corpse eaters are not as large of an issue as they are in Areslos, but authorities keep their eyes open for any wanted necromancers that have tried to escape their crimes by going to a different continent.
Despite having to place guilds and laws to control necromancers and the undead the majority of the public are not hostilely suspicious of magic. No great event has occurred that has given people reason to believe that magic and magic users in their entirety must be policed or controlled.
Discoveries are being made constantly and a map of Caridecosta will show major villages and the territories of the fiefdoms, but there is no way of telling what may be discovered in the numerous blank spaces on the map. This isn't even considering the Uncharted West where tales speak of lizard folk making bloody sacrifices atop mighty stone pyramids and sharp tooth humanoids in underground cities.
Things are tense in the Fief of Porticul which guards a major mountain pass across the Manticore Tail Mountains that leads into the territory claimed by the city of Cindersel. Armed conflict has not broken out, but neither side is currently letting the other into their territory. Despite this, many believe that the Fief of Porticul is stoking the flames of paranoia to trick new citizens to migrate there and "do their duty for the continent."
Abandoned by many in the hope of a better life The Fief of Survivor's Rest is a lawless land with its former leader having abandoned it to lead his followers to Jaferlum's Hope and its current leader having never once left Chespire let alone stepped foot into his fiefdom. Chespire needs to do something about this or else they may never be able to bring the territory back into the fold.
The Mountain of Jaferlum's Hope was taken from its original owners, a tribe of giants, on the order of Jaferlum the First who claimed that he received a dream that the mountain would be a prosperous territory for its citizens during the rule of the mountain's first seven kings. The war with the giant's ended four years ago and the mountain was officially claimed. Since then Jaferlum's Hope has lost five kings and the sixth is slowly descending into paranoia.

I would be very interested in this campaign. I have a couple character ideas that I have been toying with. I am OK with the character rules as is and have a few i could whip up easily. if you wouldn't mind would you be willing to chat to see how/if we can make the ideas work? My discord is xXyurAnoobXx#9478
This world sounds like an interesting premise full of conflict and strife and the character ruling seems fair. If you have a spot I have some characters that could be ready to tweak or work out new ideas with the party. My discord is Elido Viken#2843 Hope everyone is having a great week.
You have a fascinating campaign concept! I'd love to join if you'd be willing to have me! My Discord is ShahKing5#7729. I have a Halfling character already in mind and would love to hear back from you.
