some parts of this are actually very similar to mine (like the deities being faded and long gone)
Your map is pretty good, too. Thanks for the encouragement!

Maybe make the Galoron Battlemage a subclass and make a variant soldier called Galoron Soldier? How would you make a spell-casting background?
If you ignore my suggestions, that's fine.
Some backgrounds, like those from Guildmaster's Guide to Ravnica (if you have it) give you some cantrips and a first level spell.
They give you extra choices if you’re a spellcaster.

All hail the great and mighty platypus.
Resisting is simply standing in front of the tide and pushing at it. Even if you endure at first, you will eventually break down. Adapting, by contrast, is turning into a fish.

Rangers are not underpowered. They’re just exploration-oriented.

Yeah, I know, I hadn't read GGtR in a while and was too lazy to go check :)

Thanks! It's supposed to be different than Earth's calendar. The seasons are equivalent in length, too, unlike Earth, because the seasons are regulated by magical forces and not scientific effects. Also, 420 is a lot nicer of a number to calculate with than 365.

Here's an excerpt and a fun table (fun for me to make, at least. I hope it's fun for other people too.)
Hidden Agendas
Whether displayed openly or buried deep inside, everyone in Borrelia has hidden motives, whether sinister or mundane. When considering your character's ideal and bond, think about what their secret agendas might be, and how they correlate to the goals of the rest of your party. The Agendas table supplies some examples of secret motives you might have.
Agendas
d10
Agenda
1
You're trying to accumulate enough money to buy medicine for an infirm relative.
2
You want to get revenge against a baron who once wronged you.
3
A friend of yours set out on their own a few years ago, and you're hoping to find out where they are now.
4
You want to retrieve a priceless heirloom that was stolen from your family.
5
One of your loved ones perished. You're searching for a way to ressurect them.
6
You hope to become the greatest explorer ever to walk the earth.
7
A relative of yours believed that you would never amount to anything. You're desparate to prove them wrong.
8
You want to gain enough coin to buy a castle and become a lord.
9
A supernatural entity placed a curse upon your family many years ago. You hope to be the one to break the curse.
10
An ancestor of yours tarnished your family legacy, and it's fallen upon you to restore it to its former glory.

Why are Makimas and the Redbranch Woods nearly identical? How was Borrelia created?
The continent of Borrelia was quite literally pulled out of the water by the primal gods. They created it as a place where their various domains would all be present.
