A race to find the Scribe’s writings and perform the Rite of the Ashen Quill


Author's Note: Valthora is a fractured continent centered on the Ashen Crown, a volcanic mountain range with fiery peaks glowing in red and orange, its calderas pulsing with arcane energy. Surrounding it are five regions: the Ashborn Plains (North), a windswept expanse of ashen grass and jagged ridges; the Emberfall Wastes (Northwest), a desolate plain of cracked, sulfurous earth in sickly yellow-green; the Crimson Hollows (Northeast), a maze of red-stained canyons with an air of tension; the Shattered Coast (Southwest), a stormy shoreline of shipwrecks and leviathan bones in muted blues; and the Eldergrove Veil (Southeast), an enchanted forest of towering trees and vibrant wildlife, shrouded in mist with greens and golds. Once a unified kingdom, Valthora was torn apart by a cataclysm tied to the Scribe, a mysterious figure whose actions unleashed the Ashen Crown’s fury, leaving the land scarred and divided. Now, factions like the zealous Order of the Scribe, the fierce Ashborn Clans, the bloodthirsty Crimson Pact, the sea-faring Tideborn Covenant, and the protective Guardians of the Veil vie for control. A hidden power linked to the Scribe’s legacy drives conflict, with ancient writings and a forgotten ritual at the heart of their struggle, threatening to either heal or destroy Valthora. The land itself, hostile and alive with dark energy, challenges all who seek to shape its fate in this gothic fantasy realm.

Modify Memory

Description

You attempt to reshape another creature's memories. One creature that you can see must make a wisdom saving throw. If you are fighting the creature, it has advantage on the saving throw. On a failed save, the target becomes charmed by you for the duration. The charmed target is incapacitated and unaware of its surroundings, though it can still hear you. If it takes any damage or is targeted by another spell, this spell ends, and none of the target's memories are modified. While this charm lasts, you can affect the target's memory of an event that it experienced within the last 24 hours and that lasted no more than 10 minutes. You can permanently eliminate all memory of the event, allow the target to recall the event with perfect clarity and exacting detail, change its memory of the details of the event, or create a memory of some other event. You must speak to the target to describe how its memories are affected, and it must be able to understand your language for the modified memories to take root. Its mind fills in any gaps in the details of your description. If the spell ends before you have finished describing the modified memories, the creature's memory isn't altered. Otherwise, the modified memories take hold when the spell ends. A modified memory doesn't necessarily affect how a creature behaves, particularly if the memory contradicts the creature's natural inclinations, alignment, or beliefs. An illogical modified memory, such as implanting a memory of how much the creature enjoyed dousing itself in acid, is dismissed, perhaps as a bad dream. The DM might deem a modified memory too nonsensical to affect a creature in a significant manner. A remove curse or greater restoration spell cast on the target restores the creature's true memory.
