High Fantasy
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.

Actions
Multiattack
The chuul makes two pincer attacks. If the chuul is grappling a creature, the chuul can also use its tentacles once.
Pincer
Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 11 (2d6 + 4) bludgeoning damage. The target is grappled (escape DC 14) if it is a Large or smaller creature and the chuul doesn't have two other creatures grappled.
Tentacles
One creature grappled by the chuul must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute. Until this poison ends, the target is paralyzed. The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
