Entangled Souls

Njord

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.

Teleportation Circle

Conjuration•Level 5

Description

As you cast the spell, you draw a 10-foot-diameter circle on the ground inscribed with sigils that link your location to a permanent teleportation circle of your choice whose sigil sequence you know and that is on the same plane of existence as you. A shimmering portal opens within the circle you drew and remains open until the end of your next turn. Any creature that enters the portal instantly appears within 5 feet of the destination circle or in the nearest unoccupied space if that space is occupied. Many major temples, guilds, and other important places have permanent teleportation circles inscribed somewhere within their confines. Each such circle includes a unique sigil sequence-a string of magical runes arranged in a particular pattern. When you first gain the ability to cast this spell, you learn the sigil sequences for two destinations on the Material Plane, determined by the DM. You can learn additional sigil sequences during your adventures. You can commit a new sigil sequence to memory after studying it for 1 minute. You can create a permanent teleportation circle by casting this spell in the same location every day for one year. You need not use the circle to teleport when you cast the spell in this way.
