The Riven Lands

I
Ithikari

The Riven Lands are a fractured realm born from a magical event, The Sundering which violently pulled people from countless realities into a bleeding scar across existence. Magic here is a vile, twisting curse, its power warping flesh and mind. Its inhabitants, xenophobic and without loyalty, cling to life amidst decaying lands, endless wars, and horrifying Gods that everyone worships in some form. Hope is a lie; only brutal struggle remains in this world drowned in cynicism and sheer cruelty.

Description

Rising abruptly from a desolate, ash-strewn plain, The Obsidian Throne-Crag is a jagged, black mountain, its summit a natural, grotesque throne-like formation. Legend claims it was once the seat of the ancient vampiric overlords. Now, it's a perpetually cursed land, scarred by the "massacres" and "vile betrayals" of countless usurpers. The ground around its base is perpetually barren, unable to sustain life, only sharp, black shards. Its function is a chilling monument to lost power and the enduring legacy of tyrannical rule, drawing those who covet its dark history, often to their doom.

Appearance

The mountain is sharp and black as obsidian, with jagged shards protruding from its base. The summit forms a natural throne, twisted and eerie, overlooking the desolate plain. The surrounding land is barren, covered in black shards and ash, devoid of any vegetation or life.
