THE ZONE: Cursed Exclusion Area

Y
Yugo20

A deadly Zone of mutants, artifacts, and factions. You seek truth, treasure, or survival.


Author's Note: This world is inspired by the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, Roadside Picnic, and Tarkovsky’s film Stalker. It blends post-apocalyptic survival with mystery, horror, and moral ambiguity. Radiation, anomalies, and mutant threats are ever-present. Suggested rules: incorporate exhaustion, madness, artifact effects, and custom hazards. Emissions can shift locations or spawn new dangers. Factions compete for control, and trust is rare. Expect a low-magic, high-lethality environment where knowledge and preparation matter more than brute strength.

Description

This sticky black unguent is thick and heavy in the container, but it flows quickly when poured. The oil can cover a Medium or smaller creature, along with the equipment it's wearing and carrying (one additional vial is required for each size category above Medium). Applying the oil takes 10 minutes. The affected creature then gains the effect of a freedom of movement spell for 8 hours. Alternatively, the oil can be poured on the ground as an action, where it covers a 10-foot square, duplicating the effect of the grease spell in that area for 8 hours.
