So here's the idea...

This blog is the beginning of an experiment. I've been working idly on the fantasy world of Maeleff for a few months, typing on my phone during subway rides, and I think I may have the beginnings of something here. However, I'm lazy and bad at following through with things, so I'd like help.

Specifically, I'd like to turn this idea into an open world fictional universe. My friends and creative folk will be invited to peruse the information I have on the world, and to play with it. Write characters. Write stories. Add races, city-states, monsters and ancient ruins. I'd like to write stories, role play, and generally allow my friends to help me explore and create a rich, if someone forbidding, fantasy world.

Kek Knife


Crescent shaped knife with a handle in the middle, essentially a  double curved dagger. It's named for the Sinodyte word for mandibles.

The Sinodyte, who typically are not very violent or warlike, traditionally make them from the mandibles of ancestors who are killed in battle, specifically to serve as an instrument of revenge on those who killed her.  The Sinodyte will hunt the killer down an execute him with the knife. Some Sinodyte-made true Kek have been captured by other races. Some Geb raiders have taken to capturing and killing ancestors and making their own.

The knife has been widely imitated an recreated, typically with more typical materials.
