Varnathar

A desolate world of barren wastes and rock formations, where ruins tell of a lost civilization.


Author's Note: Varnathar is a world ravaged by millennia of neglect and destruction. Once a vibrant land teeming with life, it now lies in a state of perpetual desolation. The sky is often choked with swirling, ashen clouds, casting a dull, sickly light over the barren landscape. Jagged rock formations pierce the earth like the bones of a long-dead titan, and vast stretches of cracked earth are interspersed with deep canyons and dried riverbeds. The wind howls through the ruins of ancient cities, carrying with it the echoes of a forgotten civilization. Only the hardiest of creatures survive here, thriving in the shadows of the once-glorious peaks and crumbled monuments that dot the land. Few dare to venture into the wastes, for those who do are often lost to the endless, unforgiving expanse. The world’s fractured history is told through the scattered remnants of its past—ruined temples, crumbling libraries, and broken statues that hint at a time of power and prosperity, long since lost. There is a constant undercurrent of decay, with the very earth itself seeming to mourn the passing of its glory days. Only the desperate or the foolhardy seek refuge in Varnathar’s heart, believing that among the ruins lie the answers to a greater mystery, or perhaps the key to reversing the devastation that has marred the world for centuries.

Find Familiar

Description

You gain the service of a familiar, a spirit that takes an animal form you choose: bat, cat, crab, frog (toad), hawk, lizard, octopus, owl, poisonous snake, fish (quipper), rat, raven, sea horse, spider, or weasel. Appearing in an unoccupied space within range, the familiar has the statistics of the chosen form, though it is a celestial, fey, or fiend (your choice) instead of a beast. Your familiar acts independently of you, but it always obeys your commands. In combat, it rolls its own initiative and acts on its own turn. A familiar can't attack, but it can take other actions as normal. When the familiar drops to 0 hit points, it disappears, leaving behind no physical form. It reappears after you cast this spell again. While your familiar is within 100 feet of you, you can communicate with it telepathically. Additionally, as an action, you can see through your familiar's eyes and hear what it hears until the start of your next turn, gaining the benefits of any special senses that the familiar has. During this time, you are deaf and blind with regard to your own senses. As an action, you can temporarily dismiss your familiar. It disappears into a pocket dimension where it awaits your summons. Alternatively, you can dismiss it forever. As an action while it is temporarily dismissed, you can cause it to reappear in any unoccupied space within 30 feet of you. You can't have more than one familiar at a time. If you cast this spell while you already have a familiar, you instead cause it to adopt a new form. Choose one of the forms from the above list. Your familiar transforms into the chosen creature. Finally, when you cast a spell with a range of touch, your familiar can deliver the spell as if it had cast the spell. Your familiar must be within 100 feet of you, and it must use its reaction to deliver the spell when you cast it. If the spell requires an attack roll, you use your attack modifier for the roll.
