The City Of Yōrburg

d
dmtartaruga

A decaying metropolis, Gothic and Japanese aesthetics. Demons, fiends, and other horrors lurk.


Author's Note: ``` Yōrburg is a sprawling metropolis teetering on the brink of ruin. A once-proud city, it now blends Gothic and Japanese aesthetics, its grand architecture marred by decay and neglect. The city is shrouded in perpetual fog, concealing its dark secrets and amplifying its eerie atmosphere. Demons, fiends, and other horrors roam the streets, preying on the weak and corrupting the innocent. The line between human and monster blurs as dark pacts are forged and ancient evils awaken. Yōrburg is a city of stark contrasts. Opulent noble houses stand adjacent to squalid slums. Sacred shrines coexist with profane temples. Hope and despair intertwine, offering adventurers a world of endless possibilities and deadly dangers.

Description

You grant the semblance of life and intelligence to a corpse of your choice within range, allowing it to answer the questions you pose. The corpse must still have a mouth and can't be undead. The spell fails if the corpse was the target of this spell within the last 10 days. Until the spell ends, you can ask the corpse up to five questions. The corpse knows only what it knew in life, including the languages it knew. Answers are usually brief, cryptic, or repetitive, and the corpse is under no compulsion to offer a truthful answer if you are hostile to it or it recognizes you as an enemy. This spell doesn't return the creature's soul to its body, only its animating spirit. Thus, the corpse can't learn new information, doesn't comprehend anything that has happened since it died, and can't speculate about future events.
