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

A weather-beaten boarding house perched on stilts just above the tide line. Its cracked shutters swing in the wind, and a faded sign of a veiled woman holding a cutlass creaks above the porch. Inside, the air smells of sea brine, stew, and old blood. Each room is different — some with rag-stuffed mattresses, others with straw on the floor. Maura Vask runs the place like a pirate mother hen: gruff, foul-mouthed, and utterly fearless. Her boot once shattered a sailor’s jaw for getting too handsy. No one steals from her. Ever.

Appearance

The building is weathered and worn, with cracked shutters that swing in the wind and a faded sign depicting a veiled woman wielding a cutlass. The interior is dimly lit, with rough wooden beams and a bar lined with mismatched stools, creating a rustic yet inviting atmosphere.
