{{Worldbuilders}} '''Swords of the Serpentine''' is a fantasy GUMSHOE system by Kevin Kulp and Emily Dresner.
'''Swords of the Serpentine''' can be easily adapted to be run in Quelmar by changing references to '''Eversink''' to '''[[Al'Adeaf]]'''. The goddess of commerce '''Denari''' exists in the same capacity in Al'Adeaf under the name '''[[Waukeen]]'''.
 
The default setting that comes with the game system is known as '''Eversink''', but all of the Eversink information can be easily adapted to be run in Quelmar by changing references of '''Eversink''' to '''[[Al'Adeaf]]'''. The goddess of commerce '''Denari''' exists in the same capacity in Al'Adeaf under the name '''[[Waukeen]]'''.


The level of technology that exists in Swords of the Serpentine's default setting places it anywhere between 800 and 1000 [[PR]], though your campaign might be more or less technologically advanced, placing it earlier or later in the timeline.

The River Serpentine still runs through the area, but 4 or 5 stories underground, where the underground civilizations such as the [[Merca]] exist. Ancient Serpentine people of the area are descendants and branches of the Merca civilization.
