Conquered Continent

30 years ago, Voran conquered. Emperor Xylo's death sparks unrest, vassal kingdoms eye freedom

Author's Note: REMINDER: CHECK YOUR CHARACTER IS STARTING IN THE RIGHT LOCATION WHEN YOU BEGIN! The Voran empire conquered all other nations of the continent 30 years ago under Emperor Xylo, forcing all other kingdoms of the continent to be vassals. Now with Emperor Xylo's assassination, ambitious vassals may seek to rebel in this era of uncertainty. Currently very WIP - Make sure you update your starting location based on your character My usual starting prompt: The air hangs heavy with unease across the Voran Empire. Two weeks ago, the unthinkable happened: Emperor Xylo, the iron-fisted ruler who had maintained a fragile peace for decades, fell victim to a subtle but deadly poison, administered by an unseen assassin. The news spread like wildfire, igniting a storm of reactions. The vassal kingdoms, long held in check by Xylo's authority, now teeter on the brink of potential rebellion or opportunistic expansion. Within the opulent halls of the Imperial Court at the Iron Citadel in the capital city of Vora'Zul, a vicious power struggle has erupted. Emperor Xylo's children, each with their own ambitions and supporters, are locked in a desperate contest for the throne, dividing the court into warring factions. Describe the immediate scene around you: the sights, sounds, and the palpable tension in the air. What are the whispers and rumors you overhear concerning the Emperor's death and the looming succession of the Voran Empire for the Emperor's children? Additionally, reveal all characters present in my immediate location and any nearby locations I might be able to discover. Use dialogue and begin the story with a question. Upcoming Plans: - Fill up the remaining countries in the map - complete capital point of interests - complete creating rulers - adventurer/guild system and tying it to the voran empire - complete shadowlands - create monsters/demons - adjust NPC settings - improved starting characters

Wand of Fear

Rare•Gear (Wand)

Weight1.00 lb.

Description

This wand has 7 charges for the following properties. It regains 1d6 + 1 expended charges daily at dawn. If you expend the wand's last charge, roll a d20. On a 1, the wand crumbles into ashes and is destroyed. ***Command.*** While holding the wand, you can use an action to expend 1 charge and command another creature to flee or grovel, as with the command spell (save DC 15). ***Cone of Fear.*** While holding the wand, you can use an action to expend 2 charges, causing the wand's tip to emit a 60-foot cone of amber light. Each creature in the cone must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or become frightened of you for 1 minute. While it is frightened in this way, a creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can't willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can't take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If it has nowhere it can move, the creature can use the Dodge action. At the end of each of its turns, a creature can repeat the saving throw, ending the effect on itself on a success.
