Elaris stands in an industrial revolution, while magic remains, technology is rapidly reshaping life


Author's Note: Author's Notes for Players: Welcome to Elaris, a world in the throes of transformation. Once ruled by powerful mages and dominated by arcane traditions, Elaris is now embracing the tides of change brought by an industrial revolution. Steam engines hum where magic once ruled unchallenged, and airships, trains, and arcane-powered firearms are redefining how people live and fight. While the old ways of magic still hold sway in some parts of the world, the rise of technology is creating a new order, challenging the balance of power. In this world, you’ll encounter individuals who fiercely cling to tradition, while others are eager to explore the possibilities of innovation. This tension between the magical and mechanical will drive much of the story. Your characters will have the opportunity to navigate this shifting landscape, shaping the future of Elaris as they see fit. Whether you align with the arcane past or embrace the technological future, Elaris is a world ripe for exploration and reinvention. Choose your path wisely, as your decisions could change the course of history.

Staff of Swarming Insects
Weight4.00 lb.

Description

This staff has 10 charges and regains 1d6 + 4 expended charges daily at dawn. If you expend the last charge, roll a d20. On a 1, a swarm of insects consumes and destroys the staff, then disperses. ***Spells.*** While holding the staff, you can use an action to expend some of its charges to cast one of the following spells from it, using your spell save DC: giant insect (4 charges) or insect plague (5 charges). ***Insect Cloud.*** While holding the staff, you can use an action and expend 1 charge to cause a swarm of harmless flying insects to spread out in a 30-foot radius from you. The insects remain for 10 minutes, making the area heavily obscured for creatures other than you. The swarm moves with you, remaining centered on you. A wind of at least 10 miles per hour disperses the swarm and ends the effect.
