Welcome Back from Baldr
If you had an account on the previous Myth-Weavers — "Baldr," the codename for the old platform — this page is for you. Your account, your characters, your games, and the campaign you've been writing since 2014 are all here. They just live at a new address.
The migration is ongoing through July 25, 2026. On that date the old Baldr site goes read-only and everything routes to this one. Until then, both sites are live and content is being synchronized in the new direction.
Logging in
Your Baldr username, email, and password all carried over. Visit the Login link in the navigation and sign in as you always have — no migration step, no claim flow, no first-login reset.
If you've forgotten your password, the Forgot Password flow sends a reset link to the email you registered with on Baldr. That's the same flow as any other account.
Under the hood: account migration
Accounts were migrated as a unit — username, email, password hash, post history, character-sheet ownership, friend relationships, and supporter status all came across. The hash format was preserved, so your existing credentials work without any action on your part.
The only people who need extra help are those who've lost access to both their Baldr password and the email address they registered with — see "I can't get in" below for manual recovery.
What carried over
- Your games — every game you GMed or played in. Forums, topics, posts, applications, the lot.
- Your characters — 2.3 million character sheets came across. They're at the same URL pattern they always were, and they're linked to the games you used them in.
- Your posts — every post you've ever written, attributed to your username, in the games and forums where you wrote them.
- Your friends list and DMs — connections preserved, conversation history intact.
- Your supporter status — if you were an active supporter on Baldr, your tier and contribution history transferred. See Account Settings.
What's new
A short list of things this site does that the old one didn't:
- A modern post editor — Rich Text (WYSIWYG), Markdown, or HTML modes. BBCode for legacy content still renders correctly. See The Post Editor.
- Sheet-data placeholders — drop live values from your character sheet into a post (current HP, AC, the works) without copy-pasting numbers around. See Forums and Posting.
- Real-time notifications + push — no more refreshing to check for replies. See Notifications.
- Interactive maps — supporter-tier feature. Canvas, tokens, grids, fog of war. See Characters, Resources, and Maps.
- Better search — full-text across posts, topics, games, and ads; filterable by post type, character, dice rolls, date range. See Community and Social.
What's different
- URLs changed. The site lives at
/idunn/paths now. Old bookmarks pointing at/forum/...or other Baldr paths will redirect for as long as both sites coexist; refresh them after July 25. - The post editor defaults to Rich Text. Long-time BBCode authors can switch their default editor mode in Account Settings. BBCode still renders and is still writable — it's just no longer the default.
- Character templates work differently. The new system supports per-character templates that pull live sheet values. Existing characters continue to display; to take advantage of the new templating, see Forums and Posting for an introduction and your character sheet's editor for per-character config.
I can't get in
A handful of common cutover snags:
- You've lost both your password and access to your registered email. Email contact@myth-weavers.com — manual recovery is possible but requires identity verification.
- Password reset email isn't arriving. Check spam, then add
no-reply@myth-weavers.comto your contacts. If it still doesn't show up, file in the issue tracker. - "Username already taken" when trying to register. It's yours from Baldr — use the Login flow, not registration. If you genuinely never had a Baldr account and the name is taken, the admins can sort it out.
- A game I was GMing isn't showing up. Check your game list with the archived/completed filters; some long-dormant games migrated as archived. If it's truly missing, post in the issue tracker with the game name.
During the transition
Through July 25, 2026, the old Baldr site remains live for reading and posting. Anything you write on Baldr after the initial sync gets brought over to Idunn periodically. After July 25, Baldr goes read-only and this is the only place new content gets written.
If you have a game running, you have a choice: keep posting on Baldr until July 25 and let the migration carry it forward, or start posting here now and notify your players. There's no wrong answer — but starting here sooner means more time to get used to the new interface before it's mandatory.
Where to next?
- Welcome to Myth-Weavers — the general onboarding guide, useful for a quick re-orientation to PBP basics in the new interface.
- The Post Editor — biggest interface change; worth fifteen minutes.
- Forums and Posting — game-page tabs and forum navigation in the new interface.
- Notifications — tune your preferences before the email digest finds you.
Glad you're here.
