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 Anarchist State finds its grim entertainment in The Sprawl of Scavengers, which is less a building and more a designated, ever-shifting dumping ground for the fallen, the discarded, and the newly dead. Here, all races gather to observe or participate in a brutal free-for-all of opportunistic scavenging. The "entertainment" is the raw spectacle of desperation and ruthlessness as individuals and small factions fight over meager resources, abandoned goods, and the bodies of the recently deceased. It functions as a public display of the state's "brutal self-reliance" and "ruthless exploitation," a constant reminder of the chaos and the fleeting nature of life in this tormented realm.

Appearance

A sprawling, tangled mass of debris, broken structures, and scattered corpses, constantly rearranged by the scavengers' violent clashes and the shifting tides of refuse and ruin.
