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.

appearance
Izanagi, the god of creation, exudes an air of regal authority, with his long, flowing silver hair and meticulously groomed beard reflecting his timeless wisdom. His piercing blue eyes, marked with deep furrows of age and experience, glow with the weight of eons. Clad in ornate white and gold armor, embellished with celestial symbols and adorned with shimmering blue gemstones, he commands respect and awe. His angular, elven features and the blue jewel on his forehead emphasize his divine origin. His presence is imposing yet serene, embodying his strict but balanced nature as a leader.
personality
A complex deity, he embodies the duality of creation and destruction. Deeply passionate and devoted to his wife Izanami, his love borders on obsession, making him both tender and volatile. As the supreme god, he values order, discipline, and duty, often demanding obedience and respect from others. His pride and confidence often lead him to be arrogant and impatient, with little tolerance for disobedience. His love for family and his tragic loss of Izanami have shaped him, making him capable of both great tenderness and cruelty. His grief has left him bitter, ruling the deities with a heavy hand.
backstory
Born into the 7th generation of gods, he rose to prominence as the primordial deity of creation and life. His union with Izanami marked the beginning of the formation of Yamato, the world they lovingly shaped together. His role as father to the gods Amaterasu, Susanoo, and Tsukuyomi solidified his position as the ultimate authority among the deities. However, tragedy struck when Izanami died giving birth to Kagutsuchi, the fire god. Enraged and grief-stricken, he killed his newborn son and journeyed to Yomi in a desperate attempt to bring Izanami back. Upon seeing her decayed form, he burned her. Enraged about his reaction, Izanami banned Izanagi out of Yomi. Since then Izanagi returned to the other gods and has since ruled alone.
