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.

Grand Hex of the Sundered Soul

Description

A devastating curse cast over 1 day using a piece of the target's soul-bound possession, a vial of your blood, and a 10,000 gp diamond, all consumed. The target must succeed on a DC 23 Charisma save or suffer three escalating effects: immediate permanent HP max reduction by 20d10; after 24 hours, loss of all saving throw and skill proficiencies, alignment shift to chaotic evil, permanent -3d6 Charisma, and vulnerability to necrotic damage; after 7 days, permanent disadvantage on all attacks, checks, and saves, no magical healing or temp HP, and 2d6 necrotic damage each turn until death, leaving a withered husk unrecoverable except by Wish or divine intervention. The curse is permanent until dispelled by Wish or an epic quest.
