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
Tomoe, a human samurai, is the embodiment of grace and strength. Her sharp, almond-shaped eyes burn with quiet determination, framed by soft yet disciplined features. Her dark hair, intricately tied in a high bun, falls gently around her shoulders, adorned with a single golden ornament. She wears a dark blue and gold armor, the floral patterns on her chest plate a testament to her noble heritage. The polished pauldrons and layered metal protect her shoulders, giving her a regal, battle-ready stance. Tomoe’s serene expression hides her fierce resolve, embodying both elegance and deadly precision.
personality
Her sense of duty and honor defines her as a samurai. Tomoe is resolute, disciplined, and carries herself with quiet authority, ensuring the protection of the Blossoming Pavilion's staff with grace and composure. Her alignment as Lawful Good shines through in her fair and just approach to handling misbehavior, giving wrongdoers a chance to correct themselves before removing them. Tomoe believes in maintaining harmony and protecting the vulnerable, using her sword as both a shield and a symbol of justice. Despite her strict nature, she is compassionate toward those she guards, fostering a deep sense of loyalty and protection.
backstory
Born into a modest samurai family, Tomoe was trained in the art of combat and discipline from a young age. With her unwavering sense of duty, she found her calling as the protector of the Blossoming Pavilion, a prestigious Geisha house known for its elegance and cultural refinement. Her role is not only to ensure the safety of the geisha and staff but also to maintain order in an environment where clients occasionally forget their manners. Calm and composed, Tomoe swiftly deals with any troublemakers, escorting them out with firm precision, yet her heart remains dedicated to upholding honor and respect in the establishment.
