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
Kanda is a towering, powerfully built man with broad shoulders, well-defined muscles, and a rugged, weathered look that speaks of years of hard training and battle experience. His jet-black hair is slightly unkempt, framing his intense, sharp eyes and a smirk that exudes both confidence and defiance. Tattoos of swirling patterns cover his arms, hinting at his clan's heritage, while his outfit is practical but adorned with touches of gold and red, reflecting his roots. He carries himself with a relaxed, almost casual strength, as though he's always ready for a fight but never in a rush.
personality
Kanda is laid-back and carefree, often seen with a cigarette or a drink in hand, giving off the impression that he cares little for formalities or etiquette. However, beneath this casual demeanor lies a fierce and determined fighter who relishes a good battle. He's blunt and unfiltered, speaking his mind without hesitation, yet he has a strong protective streak, especially toward his comrades. Though he doesn’t openly express it, he deeply values loyalty and courage, and those who earn his respect find him a dependable, if unconventional, ally.
backstory
Born into a warrior clan known for their resilience and unyielding strength, Kanda grew up surrounded by tales of battle and honor. His clan trained him in the ways of the Oniro from a young age, focusing on wielding massive weapons with brutal efficiency. Despite his rough, unrefined nature, Kanda earned a fierce reputation as a protector of his people, fending off marauders and beasts alike. He left his homeland to explore the world, aiming to test his strength against worthy foes, but he remains fiercely loyal to his roots and regularly sends part of his earnings back to his clan.
