Crownlands of Solaris

Sigaojao

Solaris shines with greatness, but the greed of a tyrannical king is dimming its light.

Author's Note: Welcome to the realm of Solaris, a land of grandeur and decay. The golden kingdom, ruled by a tyrant king, hides its darkness behind a veil of splendor. Your journey begins not with freedom, but in the depths of despair. Captured, betrayed, or wronged, you’ve spent weeks rotting in the dungeon of Dreadspire Keep. Shackled, bruised, and surrounded by others sharing your plight, you have endured misery and hopelessness. None of you chose this fate! Cast away for defying the king, for being a threat, or perhaps for no reason at all. But here, in the shadows of this prison, you still hold one power: the choice to accept your fate or resist it. **SUGGESTION FOR FIRST MESSAGE TO FRANZ** The shadows of Dreadspire Keep suffocate us, as if the walls themselves conspire to break what little remains of our spirits. For two weeks now, we’ve lingered here—forgotten, discarded. Chained and bruised, our fate is shrouded in uncertainty. Will we be thrown into the Crimson Colosseum to entertain the nobles and die? Marched to a public execution as a spectacle? Or worse... enslaved, condemned to lives of endless suffering? None of us are here by choice—what brought us to this place hardly matters anymore. We've shared enough words to know each other's names, and that's all we need. Names and stories won’t save us; they won’t stop the rot seeping into these stones or the despair creeping into our souls. We are not comrades, not yet—but we share this misery, and that might just make us something more than strangers. (I stand, my voice breaking the silence.) "Whatever they plan for us... they’ll regret not finishing the job when they had the chance."

Description

This 2-foot-diameter black sphere is a hole in the multiverse, hovering in space and stabilized by a magical field surrounding it. The sphere obliterates all matter it passes through and all matter that passes through it. Artifacts are the exception. Unless an artifact is susceptible to damage from a sphere of annihilation, it passes through the sphere unscathed. Anything else that touches the sphere but isn't wholly engulfed and obliterated by it takes 4d10 force damage. The sphere is stationary until someone controls it. If you are within 60 feet of an uncontrolled sphere, you can use an action to make a DC 25 Intelligence (Arcana) check. On a success, the sphere levitates in one direction of your choice, up to a number of feet equal to 5 × your Intelligence modifier (minimum 5 feet). On a failure, the sphere moves 10 feet toward you. A creature whose space the sphere enters must succeed on a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw or be touched by it, taking 4d10 force damage. If you attempt to control a sphere that is under another creature's control, you make an Intelligence (Arcana) check contested by the other creature's Intelligence (Arcana) check. The winner of the contest gains control of the sphere and can levitate it as normal. If the sphere comes into contact with a planar portal, such as that created by the gate spell, or an extradimensional space, such as that within a portable hole, the GM determines randomly what happens, using the following table. | d100 | Result | |---|---| | 01-50 | The sphere is destroyed. | | 51-85 | The sphere moves through the portal or into the extradimensional space. | | 86-00 | A spatial rift sends each creature and object within 180 feet of the sphere, including the sphere, to a random plane of existence.
