I'm Casey, Zander or Wulfe, the architect behind the ever-evolving world of Tanaria, where mortals, gods, and myth intertwine in a tapestry of culture, conflict, and discovery.   Tanaria is a project that thrives on detail and depth, blending classic fantasy elements with unique twists to create a living, breathing world. Here, you'll find diverse civilizations, complex pantheons, and creatures both familiar and entirely new. Whether it's delving into the political intrigue of kingdoms like Valoria and Eouma, or exploring the untamed lands of Kalros and beyond, every piece has a story waiting to be told.   When I'm not building Tanaria, I’m a dog trainer and roleplay enthusiast who loves crafting immersive narratives. I believe that the heart of any story lies in its characters, and I strive to make each one as compelling and relatable as the world they inhabit.   So, whether you're here to uncover Tanaria's lore, steal a spark of inspiration, or simply enjoy the journey, welcome! Feel free to explore, ask questions, or share your thoughts—after all, every world is better when shared.
