When The Light Starts Off

T
Thatmikail

The sky bleeds cerulean dusk; crimson grasslands glow with decay. Obsidian spires rise through a shattered sky, where Kaiju mutate scavengers. Fleshforge splice star-flesh, Voidforged wield entropy; Orc shamans carve scars to channel the Eclipse Bull’s shadow—a beast whose antlers shattered time. Luminarchs burn with prismatic flames; Vampires drink starlight to stave rot. At its core: the Purple Hunger, a void-parasite devouring sound and sanity. Survive via mutation, betrayal, or decay.


Author's Note: This is all my notes and it's my own creation to deliver with you guys: 1. RACES Core Theme: Survival through adaptation to a decaying, unstable world. Animatroniac : Clockwork beings seeking “true life” via heart-theft (ties to Fleshforge, Voidforged). Human : Ambitious but fragile, driven by desperation (key for Shattered Eclipse/Vortexcall conflicts). Elves/Ucing : Connected to unstable natural forces (e.g., fungal corruption, echolocation). Vampire/Half-Vam : Immortal but bound to light/darkness cycles (clash with Luminarchs/Obsidian Choir). Kaiju-Hybrid Races (Orc, Nailling, Beastbound) : Embody physical and magical mutations from cosmic decay. Mechanics: Mutations (e.g., random effects from Kaiju Graveyard exposure). Light/darkness immunities/resistances (e.g., Vampire vs. Voidforged). 2. CLASSES Core Theme: Power derived from chaos , sacrifice , or fusion with cosmic forces. Eclipse Weaver / Luminarch : Manipulate unstable light/prismatic energy (risk mutation). Voidforged / Spirekin : Weaponize entropy and void-energy (collapse environments). Fleshforge / Beastbound : Merge organic and celestial/mutant forms (risk losing humanity). Glovewhisper / Cogmancer : Use rhythm or gearwork magic to outmaneuver foes. Mechanics: Prismatic Collapse : Risk mutation for power. Voidsteel Anchor : Warp gravity to destabilize enemies. Temporal Reflexes : Counter time loops (Chronophagia/Prismatic Forest synergy). 3. FACTIONS Core Theme: Ideological wars over how to survive or exploit the world’s decay. Fleshforge : Seek evolution through mutation (clash with Eidolon Harvesters). Chronophagia : Rewrite history (feud with Obsidian Choir over time/sound). Obsidian Choir : Worship silence (target Luminarchs’ prismatic rituals). Eidolon Harvesters : Drain memories (oppose Fleshforge/Voidforged). Conflicts: Kaiju Graveyard : Fleshforge vs. Gianté nomads. Voidborn Chasm : Voidforged vs. Eidolon Harvesters. Eclipse Bull’s Hollow : Orc clans vs. Vampire hunters.

Description

You create an illusion of an object, a creature, or some other visible phenomenon within range that activates when a specific condition occurs. The illusion is imperceptible until then. It must be no larger than a 30-foot cube, and you decide when you cast the spell how the illusion behaves and what sounds it makes. This scripted performance can last up to 5 minutes. When the condition you specify occurs, the illusion springs into existence and performs in the manner you described. Once the illusion finishes performing, it disappears and remains dormant for 10 minutes. After this time, the illusion can be activated again. The triggering condition can be as general or as detailed as you like, though it must be based on visual or audible conditions that occur within 30 feet of the area. For example, you could create an illusion of yourself to appear and warn off others who attempt to open a trapped door, or you could set the illusion to trigger only when a creature says the correct word or phrase. Physical interaction with the image reveals it to be an illusion, because things can pass through it. A creature that uses its action to examine the image can determine that it is an illusion with a successful Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. If a creature discerns the illusion for what it is, the creature can see through the image, and any noise it makes sounds hollow to the creature.
