The Riven Lands

I
Ithikari

The Riven Lands are a fractured realm born from a magical event, The Sundering which violently pulled people from countless realities into a bleeding scar across existence. Magic here is a vile, twisting curse, its power warping flesh and mind. Its inhabitants, xenophobic and without loyalty, cling to life amidst decaying lands, endless wars, and horrifying Gods that everyone worships in some form. Hope is a lie; only brutal struggle remains in this world drowned in cynicism and sheer cruelty.

Description

The Tribunal is Grimwatch's military court, enforcing discipline from the Salt-Throne Citadel. It judges loyalty and naval conduct. Crimes like desertion, cowardice in battle, or hoarding vital supplies lead to forced servitude: unending labor on the storm-battered defenses, lashed by brine-soaked whips. High treason or mutiny earns execution: "Sea-Whelming" – bound to a kelp-draped anchor, slowly lowered into the deepest, darkest trenches, to be claimed by unseen abyssal horrors or the crushing pressure of the deep.

Appearance

A grim, stone fortress chamber with high, barred windows overlooking the stormy sea. The room is adorned with naval banners and iron chains, with a raised dais for judges and a holding area for the accused. Outside, the citadel's defenses are battered by relentless waves, and a dark pit near the cliffs serves as the execution site.
