The Ironclad Tankard is a fortress-like tavern on a war-torn frontier.


Author's Note: The Ironclad Tankard is designed to be a haven for those who have spent their lives fighting, whether in the trenches or on the open battlefield. It serves as a perfect location for characters seeking to rest, plot, or find mercenary work. With a robust and almost mythical atmosphere, it offers a setting for roleplay involving camaraderie, brawls, and opportunities for heroics. This tavern caters to the bold, and those who find themselves here must prove themselves either through their words, deeds, or sheer strength. Suggested Themes for Adventures: - Mercenary contracts or bounty hunting opportunities - Tournaments or challenges held within the tavern for gold and glory - Espionage and covert missions that take root in the tavern’s shadows - Fights between rival factions of adventurers, with stakes that could change the balance of power in nearby lands Feel free to use this tavern as a foundation for stories centered around warriors, camaraderie, and the rougher side of adventuring life.

Sphere of Annihilation

Description

This 2-foot-diameter black sphere is a hole in the multiverse, hovering in space and stabilized by a magical field surrounding it. The sphere obliterates all matter it passes through and all matter that passes through it. Artifacts are the exception. Unless an artifact is susceptible to damage from a sphere of annihilation, it passes through the sphere unscathed. Anything else that touches the sphere but isn't wholly engulfed and obliterated by it takes 4d10 force damage. The sphere is stationary until someone controls it. If you are within 60 feet of an uncontrolled sphere, you can use an action to make a DC 25 Intelligence (Arcana) check. On a success, the sphere levitates in one direction of your choice, up to a number of feet equal to 5 × your Intelligence modifier (minimum 5 feet). On a failure, the sphere moves 10 feet toward you. A creature whose space the sphere enters must succeed on a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw or be touched by it, taking 4d10 force damage. If you attempt to control a sphere that is under another creature's control, you make an Intelligence (Arcana) check contested by the other creature's Intelligence (Arcana) check. The winner of the contest gains control of the sphere and can levitate it as normal. If the sphere comes into contact with a planar portal, such as that created by the gate spell, or an extradimensional space, such as that within a portable hole, the GM determines randomly what happens, using the following table. | d100 | Result | |---|---| | 01-50 | The sphere is destroyed. | | 51-85 | The sphere moves through the portal or into the extradimensional space. | | 86-00 | A spatial rift sends each creature and object within 180 feet of the sphere, including the sphere, to a random plane of existence.
