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 assume a different form. When you cast the spell, choose one of the following options, the effects of which last for the duration of the spell. While the spell lasts, you can end one option as an action to gain the benefits of a different one. **Aquatic Adaptation.** You adapt your body to an aquatic environment, sprouting gills and growing webbing between your fingers. You can breathe underwater and gain a swimming speed equal to your walking speed. **Change Appearance.** You transform your appearance. You decide what you look like, including your height, weight, facial features, sound of your voice, hair length, coloration, and distinguishing characteristics, if any. You can make yourself appear as a member of another race, though none of your statistics change. You also can't appear as a creature of a different size than you, and your basic shape stays the same; if you're bipedal, you can't use this spell to become quadrupedal, for instance. At any time for the duration of the spell, you can use your action to change your appearance in this way again. **Natural Weapons.** You grow claws, fangs, spines, horns, or a different natural weapon of your choice. Your unarmed strikes deal 1d6 bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage, as appropriate to the natural weapon you chose, and you are proficient with your unarmed strikes. Finally, the natural weapon is magic and you have a +1 bonus to the attack and damage rolls you make using it.
