Elarion is a sprawling and enchanting world, teeming with diverse landscapes, ancient magic


Author's Note: Elarion is a sprawling and enchanting world, teeming with diverse landscapes, ancient magic, and a rich tapestry of cultures. From the gleaming spires of Sunspire in the prosperous Kingdom of Avalor, where noble knights uphold chivalric traditions, to the mystical depths of Eloria's Enchanted Forest, where elves and druids commune with nature amidst glowing flora, every corner of Elarion is steeped in wonder and history. The Desert of Khalidar stretches endlessly, its golden dunes hiding secrets of lost civilizations, while the bustling oasis city of Qasar thrives as a hub of trade and intrigue. In the frigid Frostlands of Norheim, the hardy inhabitants of Icehold carve out a life among towering glaciers and frozen tundras, embodying resilience and strength. Mystara's Isles are cloaked in perpetual mist, a realm of seafaring adventure and hidden dangers, where the port city of Nereus buzzes with the tales of sailors and pirates. The lands are watched over by powerful factions such as the Order of the Radiant Dawn, shining beacons of justice, and the Arcane Consortium, keepers of ancient magical knowledge. Shadows lurk, too, in the form of the clandestine Shadow Hand, manipulating events from the darkness, while the Circle of the Wild stands vigilant in protecting nature's balance. Amidst this backdrop of grandeur and peril, your journey begins in Greenhaven, a town on the edge of the Whispering Woods, renowned for its vibrant Harvest Festival. The air is filled with the scents of celebration, yet whispers of dark omens cast a subtle shadow over the festivities. As the townsfolk revel in the joyous occasion, an undercurrent of unease hints at the adventures and mysteries that await those brave enough to explore the depths of Elarion.

Speak with Dead

Description

You grant the semblance of life and intelligence to a corpse of your choice within range, allowing it to answer the questions you pose. The corpse must still have a mouth and can't be undead. The spell fails if the corpse was the target of this spell within the last 10 days. Until the spell ends, you can ask the corpse up to five questions. The corpse knows only what it knew in life, including the languages it knew. Answers are usually brief, cryptic, or repetitive, and the corpse is under no compulsion to offer a truthful answer if you are hostile to it or it recognizes you as an enemy. This spell doesn't return the creature's soul to its body, only its animating spirit. Thus, the corpse can't learn new information, doesn't comprehend anything that has happened since it died, and can't speculate about future events.
