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.

Curse of the Devouring Shadow

Description

You curse a creature's shadow to turn against them, consuming their life force daily. The target must succeed on a DC 22 Constitution save or be cursed; each dusk they must save DC 20 Constitution or lose 3d10 max HP and 1d4 from a random ability score. If any ability or max HP drops to 0, the target is consumed, and the shadow becomes a malevolent entity. The curse is permanent until dispelled by Wish or destroying the shadow in sunlight when fully manifested.
