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 Currently planned: 2 more factions (merchant guild and artist guild of sorts) and adding the whole character roster to those factions. But I need to get a better grasp how Franz works in conjuntion with those systems atm, so I will refrain from putting all current characters into factions for the time being. 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 into the character list of Yamato. Then start a campaign from there and select the character. If the character has a class and race that is not present in Yamato, you should also copy it over and integrate it in the Yamato world in your workshop tab as well, including the spells you use. 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.

Hiraku
Level 3 Hebi Yokai-Hunter -
Hiraku is a Hebi Yokai-Hunter. He is a disciplined and visionary leader of the hebi clans, with a sharp eye for potential, blending diplomatic finesse with decisive action, though his poor sense of direction and ability to sleep anywhere add a surprising touch of humor to his otherwise commanding presence.

appearance
Hiraku stands tall and imposing with sharp, angular features that give him a regal presence. His deep green hair, reminiscent of moss-covered stones, is tousled yet deliberate, framing his intense, yellow eyes with slit black pupills that seem to see through deception. His attire, a blend of intricate Hebi designs and Yokai-Hunter practicality, includes black robes adorned with muted floral patterns. His shoulders are broad, and he carries himself with an air of quiet authority, the metallic accents of his armor adding an air of elegance to his otherwise formidable appearance.
personality
Hiraku is a man of contrasts—disciplined, composed, and decisive when leading or in combat, yet unexpectedly carefree and almost whimsical when off-duty. His diplomatic approach to conflicts showcases his belief in peaceful resolutions, yet he is always ready to act decisively when needed. He has an uncanny ability to recognize hidden potential in others, making him a trusted mentor and leader. Despite his commanding presence, Hiraku is humble, often laughing at his own terrible sense of direction and ability to fall asleep anywhere, from tree branches to stone floors.
backstory
Born into a clan known for its deep-rooted connection to Hebi yokai, Hiraku was destined for greatness. His family has served as protectors of the ancient balance between humans and yokai for generations, and he inherited the responsibility of upholding this tradition. His training began at a young age, where he was honed not only in combat but in the art of diplomacy and yokai relations. Despite his disciplined upbringing, Hiraku's sense of direction has always been terrible, leading to humorous and sometimes dangerous situations. His reputation as a skilled Yokai-Hunter and a leader precedes him.
