Nexara is a vast, magical world where the 21st century collides with fantasy.


Author's Note: Author's Note: Nexara is a vast, magical realm where the 21st century meets fantasy, larger than Earth and home to diverse races, including humans, orcs, elves, dwarves, and wizards. Its cities blend skyscrapers powered by arcane energy with mana-fueled technologies, creating a unique mix of magic and modernity. However, ancient powers and dark forces continually vie for control beneath this advanced surface. Kingdom of Esabury Located in the Ghivanni Delta, Esabury is a powerful nation known for its economic strength and arcane innovations. Cities like Arcathis utilize arcane automobiles, planes, and firearms. Despite its prosperity, Esabury faced a brutal war against the Iron Dominion fifty years ago over the delta’s precious arcane crystals. The Iron Dominion To the north lies the Iron Dominion, ruled by the Council of Shadows, a group of malevolent warlocks. They use dark magic—necromancy and blood magic—to maintain control and seek to dominate the Ghivanni Delta for its resources. Although the Treaty of Aridon ended the war, fears persist about the Dominion amassing power and developing forbidden weapons. The United Elven States of Thalorwyn East of Esabury, Thalorwyn is a key ally led by the Circle of the Verdant. The elves balance arcane technology with environmental protection, wary of industrialization’s impacts. They played a crucial role in the war, providing magical support, and now focus on harmonizing ancient and modern magic. The Orcish Kingdom of Druukar To the west, Druukar is an industrious nation with arcane-powered factories. Ruled by warrior-chiefs, it maintains a strategic alliance with Esabury against the Iron Dominion. Tensions in Nexara Despite fifty years of peace, tensions are rising. The Iron Dominion’s pursuit of dark magic raises fears of renewed conflict. Control of the Ghivanni Delta’s arcane crystal mines remains contentious, with the potential for another war looming as the Dominion grows bolder.

Description

You create a seismic disturbance at a point on the ground that you can see within range. For the duration, an intense tremor rips through the ground in a 100-foot-radius circle centered on that point and shakes creatures and structures in contact with the ground in that area. The ground in the area becomes difficult terrain. Each creature on the ground that is concentrating must make a constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature's concentration is broken. When you cast this spell and at the end of each turn you spend concentrating on it, each creature on the ground in the area must make a dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is knocked prone. This spell can have additional effects depending on the terrain in the area, as determined by the DM. **Fissures.** Fissures open throughout the spell's area at the start of your next turn after you cast the spell. A total of 1d6 such fissures open in locations chosen by the DM. Each is 1d10 × 10 feet deep, 10 feet wide, and extends from one edge of the spell's area to the opposite side. A creature standing on a spot where a fissure opens must succeed on a dexterity saving throw or fall in. A creature that successfully saves moves with the fissure's edge as it opens. A fissure that opens beneath a structure causes it to automatically collapse (see below). **Structures.** The tremor deals 50 bludgeoning damage to any structure in contact with the ground in the area when you cast the spell and at the start of each of your turns until the spell ends. If a structure drops to 0 hit points, it collapses and potentially damages nearby creatures. A creature within half the distance of a structure's height must make a dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 5d6 bludgeoning damage, is knocked prone, and is buried in the rubble, requiring a DC 20 Strength (Athletics) check as an action to escape. The DM can adjust the DC higher or lower, depending on the nature of the rubble. On a successful save, the creature takes half as much damage and doesn't fall prone or become buried.
