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 Nexus Spire serves as Veilwatch's disorienting capital, the central control point for its Kitsune agents' manipulation and surveillance. Its function is to maintain the city's facade of normalcy. Threats include mind-rending phantasms afflicting operatives within the Spire's upper levels, psychological breakdown of Kitsune from identity loss during deep covers, cults of false identity forming secretly within the spire, and disinformation campaigns accidentally backfiring on the inner circle, leading to internal chaos.

Appearance

A towering, twisting spire of dark stone and shimmering glass, with shifting angles and impossible geometry that confuses the senses. Its upper levels glow faintly with eerie light, and shadowy figures move silently within.
