Creators of Galluvinchia

Galluvinchia is an original fantasy world created by The Bun Cult, an independent two-person studio in Sweden. It's a land where gods walk among mortals, where very different societies are built on conflicting truths, and where the souls of the dead fuel the lights of entire cities.

You can explore it through the sourcebook Fables of Galluvinchia, the manga Santiago and the video game Ipsopacto.

Yes. The book is written to be enjoyed as a read, not just consulted as a manual: it's fully illustrated and introduces the world through its stories, so you can fall in love with it before you roll a single die.

It uses the standard fifth edition (5e) rules, so any beginner guide or tutorial for 5e works with it. It also includes tips for new Dungeon Masters and custom rules that people love.

Keep the first session short, give them ready-made characters and explain the rules while you play, not before. A world with a clear tone and memorable characters makes it much easier for new players to care about what happens. The one-shot inside the book, the Jewel of Evergrowth is literally focused on that.

Galluvinchia was born exactly like that: as a campaign for friends, many of whom had never played before, and it has kept more than 40 players coming back over 100+ sessions. Reading a few of its tales together is a great way to break the ice.

No. Galluvinchia is inspired by classical tales, so the starting point feels familiar: gods, heroes, monsters and journeys. The depth is there when you want it, but you never need it to have fun.

Yes. Galluvinchia is a completely original world with its own gods, history and peoples, designed to be played with the 5e rules you already know.

You keep your books, dice and character sheets; you only swap the world. That makes it an easy step for groups who want something new without learning a new game.

The gods are not distant: they walk among mortals and shape everyday life. Each society is built on its own version of the truth, so conflicts come from beliefs, not just from good versus evil. Magic resonates like the strike of an anvil, and the souls of the dead literally light up cities.

The result is a world that's easy to picture on the first page and keeps revealing new layers for years.

Yes. Beneath the easy reading there's a full pantheon, a long history, rival factions and secrets that connect the book, the manga and the game. Veterans get a living setting that keeps growing; newcomers get a story they can follow from day one.

It is also a great place to start your campaign, as we have a really broad Fan Content Policy.

We're building one. Laws of Galluvinchia is our own classless roleplaying system, using only twelve-sided and six-sided dice, designed so that new players aged 10 and up can learn it in minutes.

Join our Discord or Patreon to follow its development and take part in the playtests.

Yes. Its places, characters and creatures are written for 5e, so you can drop a city or a villain into an ongoing campaign, or move your whole group to Galluvinchia.

More than 200 full-colour pages that open the world of Galluvinchia: its pantheon, from Brout, the sleeping god of the moon, to the four ancestral dragons; its peoples, cities and conflicting beliefs; and the places, characters and creatures you need to run adventures there with 5e.

Everything is presented through stories and illustrations, so it reads like a book of fables as much as a game manual.

As a hardcover and as a PDF, in English (The Jewel of Evergrowth) and in Spanish (La Joya Siemprecreciente). The hardcovers are sold here; the PDFs are on DriveThruRPG.

No. All the text and every illustration were made by hand by a human author and artist. Galluvinchia is a personal, handmade world, and we want it to stay that way.

Yes. The Vault has free extra material for the book, and our newsletter subscribers get a discount on the store.

Alejandro Pérez-Ordoyo, author and illustrator, and The Bun Cult, the small independent publishing studio he runs in Sweden with his partner. We write, illustrate, print and ship everything ourselves. The book was funded on Kickstarter by more than 40 backers, and we're now expanding the world into comics and video games.
