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

A beam of yellow light flashes from your pointing finger, then condenses to linger at a chosen point within range as a glowing bead for the duration. When the spell ends, either because your concentration is broken or because you decide to end it, the bead blossoms with a low roar into an explosion of flame that spreads around corners. Each creature in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on that point must make a dexterity saving throw. A creature takes fire damage equal to the total accumulated damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The spell's base damage is 12d6. If at the end of your turn the bead has not yet detonated, the damage increases by 1d6. If the glowing bead is touched before the interval has expired, the creature touching it must make a dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the spell ends immediately, causing the bead to erupt in flame. On a successful save, the creature can throw the bead up to 40 feet. When it strikes a creature or a solid object, the spell ends, and the bead explodes. The fire damages objects in the area and ignites flammable objects that aren't being worn or carried.
