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
Kagemasa is a dapper Tanuki adorned in a meticulously tailored kimono of deep blue and gold, accented with patterns of leaves and coins that reflect his dual passions for nature and trade. His fur is soft and well-groomed, with a rich reddish-brown hue framed by cream-colored patches on his face. His sharp, calculating eyes seem to sparkle with mischief and intellect, while his ever-present friendly smile masks the keen mind always scheming beneath. He wears a golden hat adorned with coins, a symbol of his merchant prowess.
personality
Clever and calculating, Kagemasa approaches life like a chessboard, always thinking several moves ahead to outmaneuver allies and rivals alike. While sociable and charming, his friendly demeanor often masks his true intentions, making him a formidable opponent in any negotiation. Despite his pragmatic outlook, he has a soft spot for those who prove their loyalty and sincerity. His love for baking and learning reveals his creative and curious side, while his adventurous spirit drives him to constantly explore and expand his horizons.
backstory
Born into a family of wandering traders, Kagemasa learned the art of negotiation, deception, and adaptability at an early age. His journeys exposed him to the vast cultures of Vaerithar, fueling his insatiable curiosity and drive for self-improvement. Over the years, he mastered the art of baking, using it not only to bond with others but also to craft delicacies that serve as subtle bribes or peace offerings in his dealings. Though he's unafraid to shift allegiances to serve his ambitions, Kagemasa remains fiercely loyal to the rare individuals who earn his trust.
