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

The Gorefang Spire is Crimsonhold's ominous central stronghold, serving as the dictator's personal residence, torture chambers, and primary ritual sacrifice site. Its function is to break wills and channel malevolent power through fear. Threats include sadistic guards who engage in depraved acts within the Spire's dungeons, corrupt rituals causing localized demonic incursions directly within its confines, whispers of rebellion and assassination plots amongst the tormented lower ranks and disaffected servants, and treacherous infighting among the tyrant's inner circle, vying for his bloody favor.

Appearance

A towering, jagged spire of dark stone stained with crimson, surrounded by iron spikes and banners soaked in blood, with flickering torchlight casting eerie shadows on its walls.
