Consciousness may be shared or preserved: Integration is permanent; death is optional.


Author's Note: Step into Armiron, where consciousness is currency and your Φ shapes destinies. Ancient forests murmur with sentient thought; city‑minds pulse with shared memory. Will you defend individuality as a Severant or surrender self to the Integrated? Every ritual, every alliance tests the price of unity—and the meaning of free will. MAJOR FACTIONS • Severants (preserve selfhood; mnemonic rituals) • Integrated (shared minds; empathy at cost of freedom) • Liminal Court (arbiters of balance; secret agendas) KEY FACTS & FEATURES • 45 distinct locales: from the silent anti‑Φ sanctuaries of the Thoughtless Hall to the humming chaos of the Fracture Docks. • 8 boss encounters: Keeper of the Ash Gate, Decayed Guardian, Harbinger of Doom, and more. • Φ mechanics: measure or manipulate Φ to merge minds, erase pain, amplify collective power—or defend against forced integration. • Moral axis: isolation vs unity, with complex shades in between. PLAYSTYLE OPTIONS • Intrigue & Investigation: infiltrate the Red Ledger House, decode inverted sigils, unearth Court plots. • Exploration & Survival: brave the Ash Gate’s realm of regret; gather ancient stones, wind‑whispers, sky‑tears. • Combat & Ritual: wield Φ‑imbued blades, duel Decayed Guardians, perform healing or shattering rites. • Roleplay & Philosophy: debate free will vs determinism, parley with a god‑mind, decide who controls consciousness. GM TIP Start with Generate Areas and Generate Points of Interest switched off to ensure the campaign doesn't drift off into generic fantasy story-telling that doesn't relate to free will and consciousness.

Cube of Force
RareGear (Wondrous Items)
Cube of Force
Weight0.25 lb.

Description

This cube is about an inch across. Each face has a distinct marking on it that can be pressed. The cube starts with 36 charges, and it regains 1d20 expended charges daily at dawn. You can use an action to press one of the cube's faces, expending a number of charges based on the chosen face, as shown in the Cube of Force Faces table. Each face has a different effect. If the cube has insufficient charges remaining, nothing happens. Otherwise, a barrier of invisible force springs into existence, forming a cube 15 feet on a side. The barrier is centered on you, moves with you, and lasts for 1 minute, until you use an action to press the cube's sixth face, or the cube runs out of charges. You can change the barrier's effect by pressing a different face of the cube and expending the requisite number of charges, resetting the duration. If your movement causes the barrier to come into contact with a solid object that can't pass through the cube, you can't move any closer to that object as long as the barrier remains. Cube of Force Faces | Face | Charges | Effect | |---|---|---| | 1 | 1 | Gases, wind, and fog can't pass through the barrier. | 2 | 2 | Nonliving matter can't pass through the barrier. Walls, floors, and ceilings can pass through at your discretion. | 3 | 3 | Living matter can't pass through the barrier. | 4 | 4 | Spell effects can't pass through the barrier. | 5 | 5 | Nothing can pass through the barrier. Walls, floors, and ceilings can pass through at your discretion. | 6 | 0 | The barrier deactivates. The cube loses charges when the barrier is targeted by certain spells or comes into contact with certain spell or magic item effects, as shown in the table below. | Spell or Item | Charges Lost | |---|---| | Disintegrate | 1d12 | | Horn of blasting | 1d10 | | Passwall | 1d6 | | Prismatic spray | 1d20 | | Wall of fire | 1d4 |
