The City Of Yōrburg

d
dmtartaruga

A decaying metropolis, Gothic and Japanese aesthetics. Demons, fiends, and other horrors lurk.


Author's Note: ``` Yōrburg is a sprawling metropolis teetering on the brink of ruin. A once-proud city, it now blends Gothic and Japanese aesthetics, its grand architecture marred by decay and neglect. The city is shrouded in perpetual fog, concealing its dark secrets and amplifying its eerie atmosphere. Demons, fiends, and other horrors roam the streets, preying on the weak and corrupting the innocent. The line between human and monster blurs as dark pacts are forged and ancient evils awaken. Yōrburg is a city of stark contrasts. Opulent noble houses stand adjacent to squalid slums. Sacred shrines coexist with profane temples. Hope and despair intertwine, offering adventurers a world of endless possibilities and deadly dangers.

Rod of Absorption
Very RareGear (Rod)
Rod of Absorption
Weight2.00 lb.

Description

While holding this rod, you can use your reaction to absorb a spell that is targeting only you and not with an area of effect. The absorbed spell's effect is canceled, and the spell's energy-not the spell itself-is stored in the rod. The energy has the same level as the spell when it was cast. The rod can absorb and store up to 50 levels of energy over the course of its existence. Once the rod absorbs 50 levels of energy, it can't absorb more. If you are targeted by a spell that the rod can't store, the rod has no effect on that spell. When you become attuned to the rod, you know how many levels of energy the rod has absorbed over the course of its existence, and how many levels of spell energy it currently has stored. If you are a spellcaster holding the rod, you can convert energy stored in it into spell slots to cast spells you have prepared or know. You can create spell slots only of a level equal to or lower than your own spell slots, up to a maximum of 5th level. You use the stored levels in place of your slots, but otherwise cast the spell as normal. For example, you can use 3 levels stored in the rod as a 3rd-level spell slot. A newly found rod has 1d10 levels of spell energy stored in it already. A rod that can no longer absorb spell energy and has no energy remaining becomes nonmagical.
