The Shattered Seas

H
HollowLT

An ocean of islands, pirates, and danger—Dominion law fades and treasure calls.


Author's Note: This world is designed to capture the thrill of classic pirate adventures—swashbuckling fights, buried treasure, and treacherous alliances. It blends grounded seafaring with hints of the supernatural, where ancient sea gods may stir beneath the waves and cursed gold can change a man's fate. The Aurelian Dominion provides a powerful force to push against, creating tension between freedom and order. Players are encouraged to forge their own pirate legend, whether as rebels, mercenaries, or self-made kings of the sea. Morality is fluid, loyalty is earned, and the sea shows no mercy. Every island holds a secret, every rival ship could be the last thing you see, and every decision has the power to turn the tide.

Description

Masters of deception and quick escapes, smugglers make their living moving illegal or high-risk goods across treacherous seas and war-torn borders. They thrive on wit, speed, and charm—dodging naval patrols, bribing officials, and slipping through blockades with ease. Core features include Sleight of Cargo for concealing goods and Smoke and Salt for creating smokescreens during escapes. Typical backgrounds include former pirates, desert caravan defectors, relic thieves, and rogue navigators.
