The Dreams of Krypnos is an anthropomorphic-fantasy world set on the habitable moon of Elysia. Elysia is inhabited by various animal-like creatures called the Arcadians, who possess their own cultures and civilisations. Spanning thousands of years of history, The Dreams of Krypnos traces the saga of the arcadians from earliest times to the great dynasties of the Bronze Age, the luxurious decadence of the Classical Age, the trials and tribulations of the Floreus Era, culminating in the Space Age, when arcadians took to the cosmic skies. Elysia is a world brimming with magic. In fact, the entire universe (named the Alborax) is the magical manifestation of Krypnos, the mysterious deity who created it.
The Dreams of Krypnos is a personal project that I have been working on for more than 15 years. My goals are to begin uploading most of what I write onto this website, and promote the world of Elysia through content such as lore videos and ambient music videos. As of early 2026, I am still in the process of editing much of the history of Elysia, but I hope to begin uploading material by the end of 2027, at the latest.
Over the many years I have sketched hundreds of illustrations regarding the world of Elysia. Whilst my artistic abilities leave a lot to be desired, I believe illustration is a central pillar of any fantasy-related work of art. In the future I hope to collaborate with a more talented artist than myself!
