The Unified Setting for /tg/ is a project headed by a group of anons that aims to make the best campaign setting possible for /tg/. It is currently being prepared for both 3.5e and 4e Dungeons and Dragons and includes a number of /tg/'s favorite things.
The '''Unified Setting''' for /tg/ is a low fantasy setting focusing primarily on politics and religion, with less emphasis than usual on traditional dungeon delving, although certain historical sites are designed to supply dungeons as needed. The setting as a whole receives considerable criticism as "furry" due to the prevalence of beast races. Click on the map for a better idea.

== The Gods ==
A very rough summary of the organization of deities and associated entities so far.<br>
So far the main pantheon is split into two layers.  The Higher are "canon" deities, of which there are currently five, each represented in many if not most of the polytheistic faiths present in the world.  Their names, appearances and even roles may change between religions, but they are essentially different interpretations of the same fundamental concepts.<br>
The Lesser are beings which may or may not be recognised as gods by mortal faiths, but are not part of the actual godhood of the world.  They can be immortal beings, ascended, or any of a multitude of "resident spirits" that inhabit various parts of the world, such as major geographic landmarks like rivers and mountains, seas, lakes, plains, and so on.

===Demi-gods===
*Aspects of nature – godlike spirits present in natural objects and places such as rivers, forests, mountains and trees.  May or may not manifest themselves physically as some form of creature, mythical or mundane, or in mortal form.  Typically possess great power over whatever aspect of the natural world with which they are associated.  For example, a river god may have powers over running water and so forth.
*Ascended creatures – mortal beings that have, through one means or another, transcended their own mortality and inherited godlike abilities.  Also includes heroic figures who are, for whatever reason, deified after death, even if they did not actually achieve godhood.  An example of the latter would be Reis, mother of the Burmecian race, who is worshipped as a goddess centuries after her death.

The map of the campaign setting so far.
What might as well be the cover of the book.

The Unified Setting for /tg/ is a low fantasy setting focusing primarily on politics and religion, with less emphasis than usual on traditional dungeon delving, although certain historical sites are designed to supply dungeons as needed. The setting as a whole receives considerable criticism as "furry" due to the prevalence of beast races. Click on the map for a better idea.
