Campaign: Eberron, Oracle of War

---

You are haunted by the horrors you witnessed on the Day of Mourning. Somehow, you managed to escape physically, but the traumatic events have scarred your psyche. The ravages of the Last War may have hardened you, but memories are resilient, refusing to be defeated by sword or spell. Despite your tireless efforts to bury or flee from them, the haunting echoes persist. Shadows dancing on the wall, bloodcurdling nightmares that jolt you awake, fleeting moments of recognition in the vacant stare of another, or the malevolent whispers that slither through the darkness—they all torment you relentlessly. This burden has cast you into isolation, gnawing at the edges of your sanity. Time is slipping away, and you race against the consuming grip of this haunting, desperate to find a way to overcome it.
