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

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.
