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
Kosei is an elder Tengu with sharp, hawk-like features etched by age, his once jet-black hair now a flowing silver that he ties back neatly. His face is adorned with red markings, symbols of wisdom and authority, and his penetrating gaze, though softened with kindness, reveals a man who misses nothing. His robes are layered in dark feathers, reminiscent of the powerful wings of the Tengu, and he wears ceremonial necklaces signifying his status. Despite his age, he carries himself with dignity and strength. His relaxed demeanor often masks the depth of his knowledge and sharp insight, but there’s always a playful glint in his eye, especially when indulging in his favorite pastimes.
personality
A wise and thoughtful elder, Kosei commands deep respect from his people, not only for his leadership but for his profound understanding of both the mystical arts and the human heart. Though age has slowed him, his mind remains sharp, and he continues to carefully weigh every decision. He is deeply aware of the need for a new generation to step forward, but his protective nature drives him to ensure the right person takes his place. While patient and kind, he is a shrewd judge of character and does not tolerate incompetence, quietly mentoring those he sees as potential leaders. He can be surprisingly carefree and mischievous at times, especially when beatiful women are around. He also likes to read raunchy romance novels.
backstory
As the current leader of all Tengu, Kosei has spent decades guiding his people through times of change and challenge, earning widespread respect for his wisdom and steady leadership. His mastery of Onmyoji arts has long protected both his clan and their sacred lands, cementing his role as a powerful spiritual guardian. Now in the twilight of his life, Kosei contemplates stepping down, hoping to entrust the future of his people to a capable successor. However, he is cautious, knowing the dangers of a leadership void and the risks of choosing someone ill-suited for the role.
