The Flanaess stands at a turning point, where kingdoms rise, dark powers stir, and heroes shape fate


Author's Note: The Flanaess stands at the precipice of change. From the depths of its ancient ruins to the heights of its towering citadels, the land is rife with political strife, supernatural forces, and the ever-looming threat of war. The Free City of Greyhawk remains a beacon of trade and adventure, yet shadows stir in its alleys, and powerful factions vie for control. In the west, a newly risen kingdom between Zeif and Keoland flexes its military might, eager to carve its name into history through conquest. Meanwhile, Furyondy holds the line against the remnants of Iuz’s dark influence, even as its noble houses scheme for dominance. The Scarlet Brotherhood weaves its insidious plots from the shadows, and deep beneath the surface, forgotten horrors awaken. Adventurers seeking glory, wealth, and power will find no shortage of opportunities—or dangers. Whether navigating the political games of noble houses, delving into dungeons lost to time, or uncovering the secrets of the multiverse itself, the Flanaess offers endless paths to those bold enough to walk them. Will you forge a legend, or will your name be lost to the tides of history?

Detect Thoughts

Description

For the duration, you can read the thoughts of certain creatures. When you cast the spell and as your action on each turn until the spell ends, you can focus your mind on any one creature that you can see within 30 feet of you. If the creature you choose has an Intelligence of 3 or lower or doesn't speak any language, the creature is unaffected. You initially learn the surface thoughts of the creature-what is most on its mind in that moment. As an action, you can either shift your attention to another creature's thoughts or attempt to probe deeper into the same creature's mind. If you probe deeper, the target must make a Wisdom saving throw. If it fails, you gain insight into its reasoning (if any), its emotional state, and something that looms large in its mind (such as something it worries over, loves, or hates). If it succeeds, the spell ends. Either way, the target knows that you are probing into its mind, and unless you shift your attention to another creature's thoughts, the creature can use its action on its turn to make an Intelligence check contested by your Intelligence check; if it succeeds, the spell ends. Questions verbally directed at the target creature naturally shape the course of its thoughts, so this spell is particularly effective as part of an interrogation. You can also use this spell to detect the presence of thinking creatures you can't see. When you cast the spell or as your action during the duration, you can search for thoughts within 30 feet of you. The spell can penetrate barriers, but 2 feet of rock, 2 inches of any metal other than lead, or a thin sheet of lead blocks you. You can't detect a creature with an Intelligence of 3 or lower or one that doesn't speak any language. Once you detect the presence of a creature in this way, you can read its thoughts for the rest of the duration as described above, even if you can't see it, but it must still be within range.
