The hobby 'fantasy roleplaying' joins my life now for a long time. Starting with the age of 15, I played this extraordinary game concept with great eagerness and in an ordinary, fun-based form.
Then, gaining the opportunity of working in the editorial department of the gratest german roleplaying game "Das Schwarze Auge" (The Black Eye) for eleven years, I changed my attitude on this hobby. I started taking it more serious. The creation of an own personal fantasy world took shape. First started to assemble all ideas I gathered as gamemaster, it soon led to an own stile. In years of gaming, designing and reflecting again ideas in game-sessions with my loyal friends, the world Rhyvanion formed to be more than a simple stage of roleplaying. It is now a kind of gigantic image, we all paint on our thoughts. To me it changes more and more into a mirror of my personal world view and perhaps an enormous philosophical, methaphorical chess board. The cosmology of Rhyvanion resembles the very essence of thinking, human mind structure and offers a broad basis of reflecting mind experiments. All in all it is also just an ordinary fantasy world. So everyone can extract exactly what one likes to get from it. By the way: I know that Rhyvanion sounds very similar to Tolkien's Rhuvanion, the elfisch expression for Mirkwood. But that's really by chance. Yes, Rhyvanion is also an elfisch name, it's formed out of the andárin adjective rhyvo (=strange), rhyván (=the stranger), so that rhyvánion means "place of the stranger". This chapter prooved to develop such an enormous size that I decided to create an own domain, wich will be online soon at www.rhyvanion.de |
