The Resurgent Kingdoms is an immersive campaign setting set in the world of Thymaril, a land recovering from a century-long darkness imposed by a council of gods referred to as the genesis gods. The genesis gods determined that the involvement by the Goddess of good, Shannardonna, and the God of evil, Varitos, had become too deep. Their punishment: the slaying of the gods and the shrouding of the world in darkness. Now, the gods of good and evil have reincarnated, with Junduul, the God of reincarnation reversing their roles. The genesis gods also agreeing to allow the return of light—though each year, for one month, darkness has continued to fall as a reminder of the past.
As Thymaril heals, kingdoms that once crumbled are rising anew. The world is filled with diverse cultures, rich lore, and powerful magic, offering endless adventure for those brave enough to explore. The pantheon’s active influence shapes the fates of mortals, making divine intervention a central force in everyday life for most.
Will you help guide Thymaril into a new age of prosperity, or will you take advantage of the recurring darkness for personal gain? In The Resurgent Kingdoms Campaign setting, the story is yours to write.

The Resurgent Kingdoms Campaign Setting is our core product and is the setting in which all of our projects to date are based.

We have spent years creating Thymaril and everything within it and will probably never stop doing so to be honest. Creating content is our passion and we hope that passion leads to products that everyone will enjoy and have an extreme amount of fun playing.
Our Goal
Our goal, first and foremost, is to create fun, exciting, immersive, and unforgettable roleplaying game experiences through tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs). We believe that games are more than just a pastime. We feel that they are powerful tools that bring people together. Those of us involved in this company have been friends for a very long time and we hope that our creations will bring people together to form the type of long lasting friendships and stories that roleplaying games have brought us. To us this game is about fun, hopefully the things we create and publish will bring you the same fun that it has for us and our friends.
Beyond creating games, we are dedicated to expanding the tabletop RPG community and increasing the popularity of what we consider an incredible hobby on so many levels. We hope to create friendly and engaging spaces for players to meet, share their stories and experiences, and collaborate across the globe. The thought of people becoming friends around the world while immersed in our world, is something amazing to think about and something that inspires us daily.
Our Staff
Dean Whitehurst, Jamie Bradshaw, Danny Mahaffey
Combined, the three of us have over 100 years experience playing TTRPGs. From our first sessions we have been hooked, some say we have a problem, we strongly disagree. Our love for these games has inspired us to create new things to incorporate into our games for decades now however. This passion we share for TTRPGs and creating things in them led us to create a world we have named Thymaril. Thymaril has evolved over the years, which eventually led us to form Turn The Key Games and The Resurgent Kingdoms Campaign Setting. One thing that is certain about all of the staff involved with TTK Games, we all share a passion for telling stories and creating new things that we can use to heighten the storytelling experience.
