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

An unassuming, clean public records office in the heart of the Kitsune realm, its polished mahogany desks and neatly bound ledgers a chilling facade. In reality, it is a hub for spies and identity thieves, where the illusion of choice is meticulously maintained through subtle manipulation and constant surveillance. The air is filled with a sense of quiet menace, where a wrong word can lead to your identity being stolen and your life erased. Work is a matter of espionage and manipulation, requiring a complete lack of scruples. Adventurers might be hired to steal the identity of a rival agent, track down a rogue informant who has become unstable, or investigate the insidious mind-rending phantasms that prey on unstable personalities and threaten to expose the truth of their rigged democracy.

Appearance

Polished mahogany desks, neatly bound ledgers, clean and unassuming interior with an air of quiet menace. Subtle magical wards and hidden surveillance devices are present throughout.
