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

Located in the lower districts, the Bonded Markets are a grim reflection of Grathmoor’s wealth. Rows of cages hold men, women, and children—captured from raids or sold to the highest bidder. Bonders operate with impunity, and the buyers include both the elite of the Dominion and underworld criminals seeking cheap labor. Despite the market’s notoriety, it is a necessary evil for the city’s rich industrial machinery.

Appearance

The market is a dark, bustling area filled with the sounds of clanging metal and desperate cries. Cages line the streets, and the air is thick with tension and the stench of sweat and fear.
