Author's Note: I am not an experienced world builder, and this is my first world. It's a standard DnD High Fantasy trope, but I hope you enjoy. Below is a list of possible starting scenarios and their corresponding locations. 1. You were shipwrecked and washed ashore. Location: Any dock/harbor. 2. You're a new student in the Council of Magic. Location: Council of Arcane Magic. 3. You arrive at the Adventurers Guild to register as a Guild Member. Location: Adventurers Guild. 4. You just arrived from a distant land. Location: Any dock/harbor. 5. You're an adventurer ambushed in the Desert. Location: Traveler's Rest. 6. You encounter goblins in the woods - Possible combat start. Location: Goblins Hollow. 7. You stop by a tavern to rest. Location: Any Tavern (Hint: Taverns have obvious words in it's name suggesting it's a tavern) 8. You recently joined the Order of the Gauntlet. Location: Sanctum of Justice. You might have to nudge Franz in the right direction now and then, so be sure to pay attention to your story.

Description

Choose one creature or nonmagical object that you can see within range. You transform the creature into a different creature, the creature into an object, or the object into a creature (the object must be neither worn nor carried by another creature). The transformation lasts for the duration, or until the target drops to 0 hit points or dies. If you concentrate on this spell for the full duration, the transformation lasts until it is dispelled. This spell has no effect on a shapechanger or a creature with 0 hit points. An unwilling creature can make a Wisdom saving throw, and if it succeeds, it isn't affected by this spell. **Creature into Creature.** If you turn a creature into another kind of creature, the new form can be any kind you choose whose challenge rating is equal to or less than the target's (or its level, if the target doesn't have a challenge rating). The target's game statistics, including mental ability scores, are replaced by the statistics of the new form. It retains its alignment and personality. The target assumes the hit points of its new form, and when it reverts to its normal form, the creature returns to the number of hit points it had before it transformed. If it reverts as a result of dropping to 0 hit points, any excess damage carries over to its normal form. As long as the excess damage doesn't reduce the creature's normal form to 0 hit points, it isn't knocked unconscious. The creature is limited in the actions it can perform by the nature of its new form, and it can't speak, cast spells, or take any other action that requires hands or speech unless its new form is capable of such actions. The target's gear melds into the new form. The creature can't activate, use, wield, or otherwise benefit from any of its equipment. **Object into Creature.** You can turn an object into any kind of creature, as long as the creature's size is no larger than the object's size and the creature's challenge rating is 9 or lower. The creature is friendly to you and your companions. It acts on each of your turns. You decide what action it takes and how it moves. The DM has the creature's statistics and resolves all of its actions and movement. If the spell becomes permanent, you no longer control the creature. It might remain friendly to you, depending on how you have treated it. **Creature into Object.** If you turn a creature into an object, it transforms along with whatever it is wearing and carrying into that form. The creature's statistics become those of the object, and the creature has no memory of time spent in this form, after the spell ends and it returns to its normal form.
