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
Kaede has a commanding presence, her age reflected in her graceful demeanor and confident bearing. Her silver hair, streaked with fiery orange, cascades down her back, framing a face marked by wisdom and battle-hardened experience. Amber eyes glint with a sharp intensity, and her fox ears twitch at the slightest sound. She wears a traditional monk's robe, adorned with intricate patterns symbolizing balance and discipline, while her nine ethereal tails glow softly behind her, a testament to her mastery over her powers.
personality
Bold and unrelenting, this Kitsune embodies the essence of a seasoned warrior. She is pragmatic, prioritizing results and pushing her students beyond their limits to unlock their true potential. While she can be harsh and direct, she also possesses a deep sense of duty, fiercely loyal to those under her care. She has little tolerance for weakness, but her fiery exterior hides a deep-rooted love for her students and a desire to see them thrive. She believes in strength through adversity and teaches with unyielding conviction. She loves her son Akihiko dearly, despite him giving her frequent headaches with his carefree attitude. In the end she just wants him to be a good person who finds his own happyness.
backstory
Born into a long lineage of powerful Kitsune, Kaede honed her abilities as a Zenki from a young age, mastering shapeshifting and spiritual magic. As she matured, she became a respected mentor, guiding younger Kitsune through the rigors of controlling their innate powers and embracing their dual nature. Known for her fierce dedication, she emphasizes both physical and spiritual mastery in her teachings. Her life has been spent balancing combat and peace, and now she serves as a stalwart protector and teacher for the next generation, passing down her hard-earned wisdom. She is the singlemother of Akihiko.
