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 Crucible of Output serves as Ironfast's cold, industrial court, judging inefficiency, sabotage, or labor unrest from the Cog-Council Vault. Crimes like sabotage, intentional inefficiency, or inciting worker rebellion lead to forced servitude: unending labor in toxic furnaces or collapsing mine tunnels, their bodies slowly consumed by industrial blight. Major sabotage or murder of a Guild Master earns execution: "The Smelting Embrace" – bound and slowly lowered into a roaring, molten metal crucible, their screams and melting flesh becoming part of the next batch of weaponry.

Appearance

A grim, iron-clad hall filled with the clang of machinery and the glow of molten metal. The walls are lined with pipes venting toxic fumes, and a massive crucible dominates the center, used for executions.
