The Sword Coast diverse and dangerous region in Faerûn, featuring bustling cities, varied landscapes

Author's Note: The Sword Coast, a prominent region in Faerûn, is known for its diverse geography, ranging from coastal plains and marshes to dense forests and towering mountains. Its climate varies, with temperate conditions in the south and frigid northern climates. Major rivers like the Chionthar and Delimbiyr serve as vital trade routes. Notable cities include Waterdeep, the "City of Splendors," which is a hub for trade, politics, and magic, and Baldur’s Gate, a bustling port city with a reputation for intrigue. Neverwinter, once devastated, has rebuilt itself as a place of opportunity, while Icewind Dale in the far north remains harsh and isolated, home to hardy folk and dangerous creatures. The region is home to a variety of cultures, including humans, elves, dwarves, and halflings, each with unique cities and traditions. Powerful factions like the Harpers, Zhentarim, and Lords' Alliance influence regional politics and power struggles. The Sword Coast is fraught with dangers, such as marauding orcs, bandits, and monsters, while the Underdark, with its dangerous denizens, and legendary places like the Ruins of Myth Drannor offer countless challenges and opportunities for adventurers. Magic permeates the Sword Coast, with powerful wizard towers, ancient temples, and magical artifacts scattered throughout. The region’s rich history includes the rise and fall of ancient civilizations like Myth Drannor, a city of powerful elven wizards, and the ongoing influence of The Weave, the source of arcane magic, and the divine power of the gods. With these factors combined, the Sword Coast remains a land of adventure, intrigue, and danger, drawing adventurers seeking wealth, power, and knowledge.

Description

This spell shapes a creature's dreams. Choose a creature known to you as the target of this spell. The target must be on the same plane of existence as you. Creatures that don't sleep, such as elves, can't be contacted by this spell. You, or a willing creature you touch, enters a trance state, acting as a messenger. While in the trance, the messenger is aware of his or her surroundings, but can't take actions or move. If the target is asleep, the messenger appears in the target's dreams and can converse with the target as long as it remains asleep, through the duration of the spell. The messenger can also shape the environment of the dream, creating landscapes, objects, and other images. The messenger can emerge from the trance at any time, ending the effect of the spell early. The target recalls the dream perfectly upon waking. If the target is awake when you cast the spell, the messenger knows it, and can either end the trance (and the spell) or wait for the target to fall asleep, at which point the messenger appears in the target's dreams. You can make the messenger appear monstrous and terrifying to the target. If you do, the messenger can deliver a message of no more than ten words and then the target must make a wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, echoes of the phantasmal monstrosity spawn a nightmare that lasts the duration of the target's sleep and prevents the target from gaining any benefit from that rest. In addition, when the target wakes up, it takes 3d6 psychic damage. If you have a body part, lock of hair, clipping from a nail, or similar portion of the target's body, the target makes its saving throw with disadvantage.
