    My campaign setting, and various threats, monsters, horrors, and other assorted features within.

    Hey all! I apologize for not updating this very often, but since I've been making a lot of changes and edits to how my setting works, so I'll likely rewrite the whole article once the 5e books release. However, if any of you guys are interested in asking any questions about my world, feel free...

    My campaign setting, and various threats, monsters, horrors, and other assorted features within.

    IMMORTALITY: The Many Ways to Ascend For most mortals, the gods are supposedly all-knowing, all-powerful entities that take it upon themselves to guide and shape mortals to expand their own influences, but for mortals with great destiny and knowledge of the worlds beyond, transcending the...

    MINI-HAKKERO It's been a long, long day for you. Warped into a land that follows strange customs, haunted by illusions of unblinking, staring eyes, and having to live off the land in spite of your mystical powers, you only wish to go home. At least you've found some sort of shelter, even if...

    My campaign setting, and various threats, monsters, horrors, and other assorted features within.

    So, I've been working on a campaign setting for Upper_Krust's new 5e books, and I feel like the time is ripe for it to be released for everyone to see it! I like to think it's a bit unique in how it's run, because a core principle of the main setting is that you can run any type of game...

    Custom divine abilities, portfolios, etc.

    DETERMINATION [Divine/Low-Cosmic??] No matter the odds, you refuse to yield, even when faced with death itself. Prerequisites: You must have a Will save modifier of at least +60. Effects: You become immune to fear effects and mind-affecting abilities cast by creatures at or below your Divine...

    Oh, that actually segues great into a question I have for Upper_Krust! Theoretically, can a DR1 Immortal in the 5e book take any Purview, or are some Purviews only available for higher-ranked Immortals?

    AD&D 2E and The Immortal's Handbook

    As previously stated, Null is not rules legal in the slightest, and I should have made that more clear. Furthermore, I probably shouldn't have hijacked this thread anyway with my bragging about my dubiously-rules legal and very heavily house-ruled build, so I'll get rid of all my posts on this...

    AD&D 2E and The Immortal's Handbook

    The math that I'm doing here is assuming that my character is getting 12 attacks per round, like Thrin did. Null, with how Eldritch Blasts work, attacks with 4 eldritch blasts each attack action, and since Null gets 12 attacks, that's 12x4. Null, in all actuality, would only get 16 eldritch...

    AD&D 2E and The Immortal's Handbook

    Null, my Sorlockadin is currently 17th level, and they can make 4 attacks a round at base when hasted and using booming blade. Each of their attacks do 2d6+2d10+4d6 fire+12+16d8 smite times 2 because of crits, and max damage because of coup de grace against a prone opponent held w/ hold monster...

    AD&D 2E and The Immortal's Handbook

    Jeez, if my Sorlockadin build in 5e got 12 attacks a round, they could deal enough damage to kill a Elder One 10 times over, assuming full crits and a restrained/prone god.

    SHADOW MANTLE The Shadow Mantle is a greatcloak made of pure darkness, and it has an almost liquid feel, somewhat similar to liquid mercury. Legends say that it mysteriously appeared along with a strange, mysterious man, and it remains within his collection to this day. Despite the mantle's...

    TWISTED SWORD Guarding this lonely, desolate outcropping in a sea of all-consuming darkness has taken it's toll on you. Of course, running away would break your promise, and that would just be not right. There hasn't been a SOUL here in years... But why does it feel like someone's still...

    Qwex'Atal'Xiel'Sura, and other possible monsters/bits of fiction for the Immortal's Handbook (Just a concept, no stats yet.)

    The Twisted Sword isn't quite that strong in every aspect, but in very certain applications, it is unmatched by even the Akasha and Supreme Being. I'll show it off soon! My personal interpretation of Shadow Crystals is pretty far from Deltarune canon, and take the most evil interpretation...

    KNIFE OF SHADOWED WILL The Knife of Shadowed Will is a magical dagger of immense power born from the extraplanar studies of the famed archmage and researcher W. D Gaster. It appears as a ordinary steel cutting knife of high quality, and casting detect magic or other similar spells does not...

    I've been converting some magic items and other mystical objects from fiction to the Immortal's Handbook style, and here's the first two I have in mind! SHADOW CRYSTAL It was a beautiful day outside. Birds were singing, flowers were blooming, and you and your comrades-in-arms had just settled...

    The wonky text is intentional, it's meant to represent the sheer unnaturalness of the entity speaking. In my concept for it, it's not actually taking the angels and corrupting them, but it's creating corrupted mockeries of them to spite them and their creators. In it's lore it was one of the...

    I ended up having a surreal dream a few nights ago, that could be incredibly well applied to the Immortal's Handbook, and its menagerie of creatures. Specifically, I dreamt about a aberration-esque creature made purely of flames, that commanded an unimaginably titanic war fleet of pure...
