Elva

I
IttyBitty

Elva is a vast world of unrealised potential, her inhabitants forgotten by their Gods.


Author's Note: Elva was once a world filled with the presence and recognition of Gods, of whom were active in the lives of the mortals who inhabited the lands. The world is filled wth life from blistering deserts, bubbling swamps, cavernous mountains, serene beaches, mysterious forests, and everything else in between. Elva, once named after the Goddess of life and earth, was the pride of the dieties and the inhabitants, while they did war, respected their dieties. However, like with most things, all good things must come to an end and Elva fell from favor from the Gods one by one. Why? Nobody knew. Had the Dieties grown bored? Had the peoples offended them? Was the world corrupted? Were the dieties held captive? Or perhaps, somehow, the magic of the world was dying? While a large population had grown used to a world without dieties, a devout populace was desperately trying to find their dieties and uncover why they all disappeared. Will you live the life of a villager trying to make ends meet? Maybe you are an adventurer looking for gems and forgotten treasures. Have you taken an interest in archeological discoveries? Perhaps you are a prince or princess trying to find love or trying to navigate the politics of an arranged marriage? Or... maybe... you are one of the few who are searching for the Gods and yearning for the day they return? The world is for you to discover.

Description

This box contains a set of parchment cards. A full deck has 34 cards. A deck found as treasure is usually missing 1d20 - 1 cards. The magic of the deck functions only if cards are drawn at random (you can use an altered deck of playing cards to simulate the deck). You can use an action to draw a card at random from the deck and throw it to the ground at a point within 30 feet of you. An illusion of one or more creatures forms over the thrown card and remains until dispelled. An illusory creature appears real, of the appropriate size, and behaves as if it were a real creature except that it can do no harm. While you are within 120 feet of the illusory creature and can see it, you can use an action to move it magically anywhere within 30 feet of its card. Any physical interaction with the illusory creature reveals it to be an illusion, because objects pass through it. Someone who uses an action to visually inspect the creature identifies it as illusory with a successful DC 15 Intelligence (Investigation) check. The creature then appears translucent. The illusion lasts until its card is moved or the illusion is dispelled. When the illusion ends, the image on its card disappears, and that card can't be used again. | Playing Card | Illusion | |---|---| | Ace of hearts | Red dragon | | King of hearts | Knight and four guards | | Queen of hearts | Succubus or incubus | | Jack of hearts | Druid | | Ten of hearts | Cloud giant | | Nine of hearts | Ettin | | Eight of hearts | Bugbear | | Two of hearts | Goblin | | Ace of diamonds | Beholder | | King of diamonds | Archmage and mage apprentice | | Queen of diamonds | Night hag | | Jack of diamonds | Assassin | | Ten of diamonds | Fire giant | | Nine of diamonds | Ogre mage | | Eight of diamonds | Gnoll | | Two of diamonds | Kobold | | Ace of spades | Lich | | King of spades | Priest and two acolytes | | Queen of spades | Medusa | | Jack of spades | Veteran | | Ten of spades | Frost giant | | Nine of spades | Troll | | Eight of spades | Hobgoblin | | Two of spades | Goblin | | Ace of clubs | Iron golem | | King of clubs | Bandit captain and three bandits | | Queen of clubs | Erinyes | | Jack of clubs | Berserker | | Ten of clubs | Hill giant | | Nine of clubs | Ogre | | Eight of clubs | Orc | | Two of clubs | Kobold | | Jokers (2) | You (the deck's owner) |
