Welcome Back from Baldr
If you had an account on the previous Myth-Weavers, the platform we called "Baldr," then this page is written just for you. Your account, your characters, your games, and that campaign you've been faithfully writing since 2006 are all right here waiting. They've only changed addresses.
The migration runs through July 25, 2026. On that day, the old Baldr site goes offline and everything points here instead. Until then, both sites stay live, with content syncing across to this one.
Logging in
Your Baldr username, email, and password all came with you. Just visit the Login link in the navigation and sign in exactly as you always have. There's no migration steps to complete; you've already got the house key.
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 single unit: username, email, password hash, post history, character-sheet ownership, friend relationships, and supporter status all came across together. The hash format was preserved, so your existing credentials keep working 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 few of the most common cutover snags, and how to clear them:
- 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. And if you genuinely never had a Baldr account and the name's already taken, the admins can help you with it.
- 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
Right through July 25, 2026, the old Baldr site stays live for both reading and posting. Anything you write on Baldr after the initial sync gets carried over to Idunn periodically, so nothing you post in the meantime gets left behind. After July 25, Baldr fades into the past, and this becomes the one place new writing happens.
If you've got a game in progress, the choice is yours. You can keep posting on Baldr until July 25 and let the migration carry your game forward, or you can start posting here now and give your players a heads-up. There's truly no wrong answer. The only thing in favor of starting sooner is that it gives you more time to settle into the new interface before it becomes the only option.
