Yamato

S
Shinrai

A fantastical world heavily inspired by japanese mythology and the edo time period.


Author's Note: Complete custom world without any 5e Defaults. This is NOT a Dungeons and Dragons World. Atm there are: 12 custom races 9 custom classes (all are able to cast spells, physical classes as well as magical ones) over 100 playable characters over 200 custom cantrips and spells 114 custom items Known issues: -"I can not start a campaign with a character I created myself." Possible workaround: Clone Yamato and add the character you want to play as in your workshop tab. Then start a campaign from there and select the character. I do not know what causes this issue. But this is a non-d&d world with selfmade classes and selfmade races. If you try to play my world with a custom character from your own workshop with a class and race that is not present in Yamato, it might cause problems. There can also problems occure, when you starting a campaign NOT at a POI with a starting location (the star before the POI name signals where you should start without a problem), but just an area. - "In Fights Franz tells me that I can not eat any of the healing items like Onigiri.": should he complain, anwer him that the item is a Potion and should be treated like one and he will let you drink it. At least it worked for me this way when testing. A bit odd, but atm the only workaround. All graphics were made with Nightcafé. You are free to use my graphics, spell descriptions, races, items etc. in your own build worlds and campaigns.

Description

Yamato is a mystical continent steeped in ancient traditions and vibrant landscapes, where the spirit of the land intertwines with the lives of its inhabitants. From vast forests that house fantastical creatures to grand mountains that touch the heavens, every corner of Yamato tells a tale of gods and mortals alike. Historically there have been centuries of conflict between humans and Yokai (like Oni, Nekomata, Kitsune, and Tengu), with humans fearing and misunderstanding the supernatural races. Recently, a tenuous peace has been established, but this balance is fragile. Also a star fell down the sky and now Kami, Yokai and humans alike strife to understand its origins and meaning or to get their hands on its mystical and otherworldly powers...
