You play as an Unholy Being, a creature of darkness. Your job is to gain power through three sources: Blood (killing other beings), Fealty (Other beings pledging allegiance and XP to you), and Time (Allotted time periods). The levels are 1-9, with 1 being the weakest and 9 being the strongest. Level 9 Beings gain a layer that they have total dominion over, the name and description of which is up to you. Whenever you die, you lose everything; XP, power, and your layers. Every time you level up, you gain Dread points, which are used to upgrade your Being. It is strongly encouraged you read further into the leveling up rules, because they are very important.

1. No need for swears and such. Those within here already have filthy souls, no need for filthy mouths too. If you want to swear then censor it instead.

2. This is an evil aligned thread, where evil characters are encouraged and evil actions are the same. But OOC, be respectful please. If arguments get out of hand then settle it in PMs, but try to prevent it from getting to that point.

3. Keep things appropriate. I'm not saying things can't be dark of course, but go easy on gory and brutal actions, and no 18+ stuff overall. We don't know how old the people reading this thread are or how comfortable they are with those types of things.

4. Please go easy on the quote chains so scrolling through them isn't purgatory.

5. When speaking OOC, structure it like *this*.

6. Please put the name of a fictional villain in your first post to show you read the rules.

7. Listen to the Mods: TheMadGibber, TheFriendlyArchfey/Little_Red_Hunting_Hood, tarasque2897, Platyboss and cynophobia_.

8. Combat with abilities isn't the only part of this thread. Please don't focus your character solely on finding OP combos and such and killing everyone, rather please report said OP stuff if you do find it. 

NOTICE: You play as an Unholy Being in this tavern, but we aren't promoting devil worship or anything like that. This isn't the 80s, no need to be paranoid.

XP can be gained in 3 ways: Blood, Fealty and Time. Blood is gaining all of the XP and Dread Points of an Unholy Being that you UTTERLY CONSUME (succesfully kill), Fealty is other beings bowing down to you and giving you XP/following your orders, and Time is gaining a certain amount of XP per day based on your level (lower then the average per day system because of the other sources). Every time you level up, gain 5 Dread Points.

FEALTY IN DEPTH: To swear fealty to another creature, you must undertake a ritual in which case you speak your true name to the creature you have sworn fealty to. While this creature knows your true name, you are considered charmed by them and any command they give affects you as if you were under the suggestion spell. A person cannot force a creature that has sworn fealty to it to harm itself directly. When you gain XP, ten percent of your daily XP is given to the creature you have sworn fealty to. You may also freely exchange Dread Points between yourself and any creature you have sworn fealty to. You can’t swear fealty to someone that has sworn fealty to you unless you are both affected by the marriage clause of the Ceremony spell. In addition, you can only have one character that has sworn fealty to another character of your own at any given time. You cannot be charmed into swearing fealty, and it must be of your full consent.

You can swear fealty to up to two separate creatures. If both issue contradictory commands, they must make a contested charisma check - the one that rolls higher has its command carried out.

If another creature you haven’t sworn fealty to has learned of your true name, each time they issue a command while speaking your name, you must make a DC 15 Wisdom save at disadvantage. On a fail, you are bound to carry out that command as if you were under the effects of the Suggestion spell.

You restart at Level 1 when you die, losing your XP, Dread Points, and ownership of your layer if you had one. Any fealty oaths to and from you are negated when you die, although ones from you don't get removed if certain abilities are involved (e.g True to Your Word).

Tier 1- Lesser Being

Level 1- 0-99 XP. Get 5 Dread Points to start off with, free of charge.

Level 2- 100-249 XP

Level 3- 250-499 XP

Tier 2- Greater Being

Level 4- 500-999 XP. When you reach level 4, you may choose a 500 by 500 ft area on a layer that does not belong to someone else (unless they have given you permission) and claim it as your lair. While in this area, you gain the use of Lair Actions. Your Unholy Being can only have up to 3 choices for lair actions. Once you have designated this area, you cannot move it until you level up again. You and any creature that has sworn fealty to you can teleport to this lair as a 10 minute ritual.

Level 5- 1000-1749 XP. 

Level 6- 1750- 2749 XP

Tier 3- Supreme Being

Level 7- 2750- 4999 XP. When you reach level 7, you may choose to lay claim to one artifact. This can be an artifact that already exists in DND or you can make one yourself. If you create the artifact, you must send it to a mod for approval before using it. This artifact cannot be the Mighty Servant of Leuk-o (more may be added).

Level 8- 5000- 9999 XP

Level 9- 10,000+ XP. You may now create and lay claim to a layer of your own. This layer can be up to 5000 miles on any side. You choose the terrain and nature of this layer, but you cannot apply harmful environmental effects to creatures that are more than 10 miles from the center of the layer. This layer must also be accessible in some way, with at least three entrances linked to Profanus. You may change the weather with 1 hour ritual, as well as warp the environment by taking a day to do so. While you are within your layer, you gain a Mythic Action that would heal you 100 hp when you fall to 0 hp once per long rest.

When you die, said layer becomes a free zone that nobody can rule and is simply an unowned layer. Once you reach Level 9 again, you can choose to reclaim your old one or make a new one. If you choose the latter then the original crumbles into darkness once more.

And the XP per day:

Level 1- 20 XP per day. 

Level 2- 30 XP per day.

Lair Actions

More may be added in the future. We kinda forgot to add these until last second tbh

Spell Casting. Choose one spell, up to level (your level/3; round down), that does not have a range of self or touch. You are able to cast that spell as this lair action, originating from you. You can take this action multiple times, choosing a different spell each time. 

Manipulate Environment. You manipulate the environment in a 10 (20 at level 7, 30 at level 9) foot sphere in your layer. When you choose this option, choose one of the following effects: Fog Cloud. The affected area fills with fog, making it heavily obscured. Earth Shift. All terrain in that area becomes difficult terrain for hostile creatures. Damaging Effect. The area becomes dangerous; perhaps growing spikes or having crushing rocks. When a creature ends its turn there, it must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 3d6 Bludgeoning, Piercing, or Slashing damage, or half on a successful one. You can choose this lair actions multiple times, choosing a different effect this time.

Summon Followers. You summon 2d4 minions. These minions act on your initiative, and you cannot take this Lair Action again while they live. The minions must be CR 1/2 or lower Beasts, Undead, Fiends, Humanoids, or Constructs.

If the Unholy being dies, it reforms 24 hours (IRL) later in the city of Profanus, retaining all of its memories.

 Actions

Rend.

Unarmed Strike: +(The Being's Strength modifier + it's proficiency bonus) to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 17 (3d8+4) bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage.

Ability scores can be rearranged as people wish, like taking 4 out of Strength to put in Charisma and such, to a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 25. 

Abilities are split into four categories. These are Unleashable, Passive, Standard and Flaws. Unleashable abilities are actions you choose when to use. Passive abilities are abilities that run in the background. Standard ones are just general upgrades to your stat block, and Flaws are essentially taking detriments for Dread Points. Think Unleashables as the actions area, passive as traits, Standard as something else and Flaws as downsides with no benefits besides DP.

If an ability requires a target to roll a saving throw, the DC for it would be 8 plus your proficiency bonus plus your Wisdom, Intelligence or Charisma modifier (your choice). If it is needed, your attack bonus for any ability is one of the aforementioned modifiers.

Variants of abilities are an alternate choice that gives both advantages and disadvantages compared to already existing abilities, you cannot take both of them at once.

You cannot take an ability multiple times unless it says otherwise. 

You can spend Dread Points on abilities whenever you're not in combat.

More will be added in the future! We do monthly updates, specifically every first Saturday in the month. These updates will bring new abilities, refine stuff, etc. Although if something really needs to change we'll do so ASAP. When updates release you can immediately make whatever changes you want to your character's abilities.

Unleashables:

Peaceful Limbo (Recharges on a Short or Long Rest outside of the Limbo)- As a 5 minute ritual, you and up to 5 other willing people that you can see and are within 10 ft of you enter a limbo demiplane where nobody else can enter and no damage can be dealt in it. You decide it's appearance and leave when you want to (for a maximum of 24 hours IRL). However, you are unaware of anything happening outside of the limbo demiplane, you exit in the same place you entered, you cannot enter it while in combat, and there is something signifying where you will exit and when. 2 Dread Points

Rocket Jump- As an action on your turn, you can jump up to 40 feet in any direction. This distance is halved if you travel at an upward direction. 2 Dread Points

Fraudulent Disguise- You can take the form of someone you've seen as an action. You gain all of their physical traits (such as voice, appearance, etc) but retain all your previous statistics. This new form cannot give you a size or speed you do not have. Anyone who's sworn fealty to the person you're impersonating (and obviously said person) can see through the disguise. Any other creature must make a contested Investigation check as an action against your Deception check. 3 Dread Points

Arcane Blast- You gain a new attack. This attack uses Intelligence, Charisma, or Wisdom as the attack modifier. It has a range of 120 ft., one target, and deals 3d6 + (the modifier of the ability you chose) damage. The damage this deals is chosen when you pick this feature and can be changed when you level up. Your options are Acid, Cold, Fire, Force, Lightning, Necrotic, Poison, Psychic, Radiant, or Thunder. 3 Dread Points

You take 15 damage for every three hours IRL invisible this way, and when you take 40 damage this way you exit this invisibility. This damage cannot be reduced in any way.

You also summon an illusionary clone when you take this action that can only be detected as a clone through magic or a successful perception, insight, or investigation check equal to *. You can talk though this clone - it cannot take actions, cast spells, and it has an AC equal to your AC, as well as 1 hp.

In addition, you may touch a single creature and remove the petrified condition as an action. 3 Dread Points.

Celestial Fragment (3/Long rest)- You have somehow gained a fraction of divine magic.

Traded Life(Prerequisite Level 4, 1/Day)- When a creature you can see within 60 ft of you drops to 0 HP, you may use your reaction to transfer half of your health to that creature, and it regains a number of hp equal to the health you lost. Both you and that creature gain one level of exhaustion for the next eight hours. In addition, when there is a willing creature within 30 ft of you that you can see, as a reaction when you would drop to 0 hp you can instead drop to 1 hp, and that creature suffers one point of damage to its hp maximum until its next long rest. 4 Dread Points.

Suffer For Other's Sake- As a bonus action on your turn, you may transfer any amount of health from yourself to a creature of your choice that you can see within 15 ft of you.

Emanation of Wrath (Recharge 6)- As an action, you can emit a burst of power in a 30-foot radius. Creatures in this range must make a Dexterity Saving Throw.

On a fail, the creature gains 3 levels of exhaustion and loses the dexterity bonus to its AC for the next minute. On a success, the creature gains one level of exhaustion and has its speed reduced to 0 until the end of its next turn. A creature cannot gain more than 5 levels of exhaustion from this feature, and cannot be killed by it.

The Bell Tolls For Thee (Once Per Long Rest)- As an action, you place a curse on a creature of your choice that you can see.

You do not heal from this aura. 5 Dread Points.

Hateful Curse(Prerequisite Level 3)- When you would drop to 0 hp or die outright, the creature that killed you is cursed for a number of days equal to your level. While cursed, it has one of the following effects applied to it of your choice:

• The creature cannot gain HP or take long or short rests
• The creature has two of its ability scores reduced to 5

5 Dread Points

Swallow(Prerequisite Level 3)- As an action, you may make one Rend attack against a creature that you are grappling and is one or more sizes smaller than you are. If that attack hits, the creature takes damage as normal and is swallowed. While swallowed, the creature is blinded and restrained, it has total cover against attacks and other effects outside you, and it takes 21 (6d6) acid damage at the start of each of your turns.

If you take 30 damage or more on a single turn from a creature inside you, you must succeed on a Constitution saving throw at the end of that turn or regurgitate all swallowed creatures, which fall prone in a space within 10 feet of you. The DC equals the amount of damage taken, divided by 2.

On a fail, they take (5+your level)d6 of your previously selected damage type, taking only half on a success. 5 Dread Points

Profane Smithing- You are trained in the arts of smithing, and you have learned to use the resources available to you to craft several objects. The first time you take this feature, you learn to craft Nonmagical items and Structures up to the Large size class, as well as Common and Uncommon magic items (if you meet the level requirement). When you take this feature again, you can now craft Huge structures and items, as well as Rare and Very Rare magic items. After taking this ability for the third time, you can craft Gargantuan structures and items as well as Legendary and Artifact magic items. When you craft a magic item, you may choose to use your pool of Dread Points or XP to craft it. When you are using XP to craft an item, you lose that XP at the start of every day it takes to craft the item. If you fall below the level requirement needed to craft that weapon by this XP loss, the process of smithing it is interrupted and you must wait until you are of suitable level before you try again. You can have a total number of magic items made equal to your proficiency bonus. The chart below details the cost to craft items:

 When you are crafting a homebrew magic item, you must send it to a mod for approval first. For every item you make, you must roll a 1d100 on the day you finish it. On a 30 or lower, the item is cursed - either you can make this curse or a mod can do it for you.

While smithing magic items, the items you need are assumed to be in your possession. When you are crafting nonmagical items that are not costly spell components, you can use your own blood or bones to make these, sacrificing a number of HP equal to your level times 3 at the start of the next three days. After those days are completed, you have crafted the item. For every size larger than Medium the item is, you take two extra days to craft it. An item meant to be worn or carried by a creature must be the same size as that creature. If you are building a structure, the daily health sacrifice requirement is equal to your level times 5, plus an extra 5 damage and extra 2 days for every size larger the structure is than Large.

When you are creating a component for a spell that has a cost, you must spend an amount of XP equal to the cost of that item to craft it. The amount of time it takes to craft the item is equal to 10 minus your proficiency bonus (to a minimum of 1).

After you finish an item or structure, you must take a full day’s rest before working on another item. Finishing an item or structure that is Gargantuan, an Artifact, or a Legendary gives you two levels of exhaustion that are removed on your next two long rests. This exhaustion cannot be negated in any other way. 5 Dread Points

Sacred Watcher of the Dead(Prerequisite Level 3)- You may choose a creature that has died within the past 200 years. When doing so, you must have the body of the creature or a piece of its Broken Soul item. If you have sworn fealty to this creature in the past or it has sworn fealty to you, you do not need the items for your ritual. As a 10 day ritual, you may attempt to bring this creature to life if its soul is willing. You may complete this ritual once per month. 6 Dread Points.

Arcane Siphon(Prerequisite Level 5)(1/LR)- As an action, you may choose to emit a 10 ft field of temporary antimagic. This field affects spells that are equal to your level or lower. While this field is active, all creatures within 10 ft are under effect by the Antimagic Field spell. You may take this ability again at Level 9 for another use of it. 6 Dread points.

Blessing and Burdens(1/day)- When you choose this ability, you pick an ability or flaw that you already have. If you choose an ability, it must be a Passive or Unleashable. As an action, you may bestow it onto a creature of your choice that you can see, with a range of touch. If the creature is unwilling, it must make a Wisdom saving throw against your ability DC, gaining the flaw or ability on a failure. If it is an ability, this creature gains the ability for the next hour. If it is a flaw, the creature can remake its save at the start of its turns, ending the effect on a success. If the creature fails three times, the flaw lasts for the next 8 hours. X Dread Points (X= the cost of the ability or flaw you choose, +2)

Passive:

Grappling Strike(Prerequisite Level 2)- When you hit a creature with a Rend attack, you may choose to grapple as a part of that attack. 1 Dread Point.

Giant Slayer- You have advantage on weapon attack rolls against creatures larger than you (by DND size rules, such as Large, Huge, etc) and you deal an extra die of damage against them. Creatures larger than you don’t benefit from advantage on grappling you. 2 Dread points.

In conditions of clear visibility, you can make out details of even extremely distant creatures and objects as small as 2 feet across. If you are on a plane that you own, you can see up to the edges of that plane. You have advantage on Perception checks when you aren’t blinded. Creatures within 60 ft of you have advantage on Stealth checks. Can't be used with See No Evil. 3 Dread Points

Blades of the Unholy- When you choose this feature, you can use your action to create a weapon in your empty hand. You choose the form that this weapon takes when you take this ability. You are proficient with it while you wield it, and it counts as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage. Any ammunition that the weapon needs is summoned when you make the attack, disappearing once it hits or misses.

Your weapon disappears if it is more than 15 feet away from you for 1 minute or more. It also disappears if you use this feature again, if you dismiss the weapon (no action required), or if you die.

You can transform one magic weapon into your unholy weapon by performing a special ritual while you hold the weapon. You perform the ritual over the course of 1 hour, which can be done during a short rest.

You can then dismiss the weapon, shunting it into an extradimensional space, and it appears whenever you summon your unholy weapon thereafter. A sentient item must agree to be your unholy weapon, otherwise you cannot perform the ritual with it. The weapon ceases being your unholy weapon if you die, if you perform the 1-hour ritual on a different weapon, or if you use a 1-hour ritual to break your bond to it. The weapon appears at your feet if it is in the extradimensional space when the bond breaks.

The amount of dread points a weapon costs depends on what type of weapon it is.

These effects last until the end of their next turn, and this ability can be used once per combat. 4 Dread Points

Layer 1: Profanus (Unowned)

Profanus is the area where all Beings emerge in the beginning. It is the center of Tenebrae Sine Fine, and at the very center of that center lies a summoning circle. This summoning circle is where all Beings start, showing a unique sigil right before summoning them for some flavor. Black and red architecture surrounds this area, but beyond it lies a vast realm with nature similar to the Material Plane, only twisted. Inexplicable structures can be found if one ventures out far enough, which anyone is free to make up. These structures can have never been seen before, or be the relic of a wonder now gone in the mortal realm. Also, entrances to all of the claimed layers can be found here if you look hard enough.

Layer 2: Cyrrendale, City of War (Owned by Correllion/Cynophobia)

A sprawling open plateau overlooking a field of vampiric flowers, Cyrrendale is most similar to the serenity of the Material Plane, and yet simultaneously reflects its innate desire for battle. The central city of Moonvale hosts massive, towering walls warded against magic and built for siege, with winding streets within and tiered buildings that sit atop of underground tunnels, well guarded by the patrols of hounds below. In the center of Cyrrendale is a massive tree, with vermillion petals and branches that stretch into the sky, the archangel Correlion’s arcane library visible near the top. 

Beyond the city walls are mostly open field, ballistas and towered forts built intermittently along the travelers’ roads that cut through the grassy landscape. Night’s Cavalry patrols here, in the perpetual dusk of Cyrrendale, providing escort to those who seek the city and punishing those who wish to harm it. The inhabitants of Cyrrendale are under the protection of Correlion themself, as well as their guard, the Hellriders. The gravity is normal here, as well as the oxygen, and it is rather distant from the gloom of Profanus as well as absent of ambient danger besides the vampiric flowers. Only the dungeons below and the hellish valleys near the walls boast terrible creatures, both of which are closed off to those who do not wish to enter - it is where Correlion conducts their magical experiments.

Layer 3: Rimehollow (Owned by Coronet/RoughCoronet0)

Description TBD

Layer 4: Velkrith, City of Shadows (Owned by Umbraveth/Ash_The_Evil)

The entrances to this layer step out onto steel bridges over the void. Nothing can be seen, except the path in front of you, and strange floating structures with unseen inhabitants. All the time you walk the path you feel like you are being watched, judged, discussed, others deciding your fate while you walk alone. In the center of these paths is a mountain surrounded by flat plains and rivers that fall off into the darkness. This place seems to be like an island in the void, the only place safe from shadows. The landscape consists of black rock, grey grass, and blue, silver, and dark grey trees. With a wall of thorns to keep out any intruders surrounding the entrances. In the center of this place is a city, almost entirely made of steel and stone. If one looks close enough, they may see tunnels leading to a underground city. Adventures must be careful though, as one may easily become lost in the caverns. If one looks close enough, they may see figures going about their day, but they seem to stay away from everyone, preferring to stay to their tasks.

While the majority of this place is bleak, there is several places of beauty. There is places that have been built for many people, from cozy homes, meadows with strange purple flowers, and forests with black trees and pink leaves, this place can accommodate many.

Layer 5 (Owned by The Conferencier/TheFriendlyArchfey/Little_Red_Hunting_Hood

Description TBD 

Layer 6: The City of Blood/ El Ciudad del Sangre (Trigger Warning: Gore) (Unowned, formerly owned by Kalkin the Vulture/Bananer28046

Layer 7: Endalress (Owned by Ravarus/RoughCoronet0)

Description TBD

Layer 8: The Courtroom of Chaos (Owned by Law/Chaos/Tarasque2897)

A torn and broken wasteland of law and chaos, with a void full of arcana spread around it. It has wooden platforms floating and rocks in the sky, sharpened stones, rare gems, signatures on contracts and so forth going across everywhere, the world split, and three shining doorways of wood and metal on outer rims, each fifty feet tall and twenty feet wide. They open when a creature with featly to Chaos opens them with their mind, or when creatures without grab them by the handle and pull. It has a giant courtroom that is much bigger on the inside, with a 600 x 600 x 600 ft, main room, and several (Seventy two) 40 x 40 x 30 ft, rooms, most of which unrelated. It also has five-hundred 60 x 60 x 45 ft, other wooden structures next to it.

Layer 9: The Valley of Forgotten Blades (Owned by Corvus/Drizztthelonedruid

A bloody and decaying battlefield unveils itself before your eyes. The dead cannot rest here, for they are cursed to be trapped in the blades that they once used. This valley goes on for miles with countless swords embedded into the ground, and a thin amount of blood covers the valley. In the center of this forgotten battlefield is an old forge that corvus used to craft all of these weapons, each of those blades you saw embedded in the ground was crafted by him and another regret for him failing to craft a sword strong enough to protect its user no matter what anyone says he believes its his fault all of these deaths happened. When the moon rises the dead spirits come out for vengeance on their foes and try to drag you down and force you to join them as a spirit.

Layer 10: Dwarfhold (Owned by Galvinar/Steampunkdragons24427

Order, justice, oaths. These were the founding words of Dwarfhold. Marble floors lead the way to rooms of grand architecture. The entire plane seems to be one giant hold built to the glory of the dwarven gods. There is little open air here, what air is available is heavily defended by arrays of baliste and other anti air weapons (corellion.....). at the center is an alter to no god in particular, but shows symbolism from all the gods of dwarven lore

Layer 11: The Skullgor Peaks (Owned by Draken/EJODM18604)

Almost all entrances to this layer emerge onto rocky ground, strewn with bones. Drakan’s Felgor army patrols the bottom. Otherwise, nothing is here. Looking up, however, is where the layer’s majority is seen. Mountains spear into the sky, each one hundreds of metres in height. Climbing them is difficult, and even then, the air, reeking of blood and bones, is too thin for many creatures to breathe. At the centre is the tallest mountain, Mount Skulgorr itself, housing Drakan’s Hall of Bones at its peak. It is estimated to stand 1000 metres high, piercing the dark clouds. Drakan himself has his own private entrance directly to the Hall of Bones to bypass the faff of getting to and from the hall using the public gates.

Layer 12: The Endless Necropolis (Owned by Kavalos/EJODM18604)

Nobody knows how large this layer truly is. Above ground, it is a long-forgotten battlefield, strewn with the bones of the deceased. Titanic weapons and skeletons lie at random. Buildings sit in the middle of fields of broken swords. Mobs of undead slope and skitter around. A perpetual blue-grey mist lies over the land.

Underneath, however, is a different story.

Under the ground is a sprawling labyrinth. Halls of black stone wind through the bedrock, filled with traps and undead guards. Much of it is redundant and leads nowhere, with no treasure or purpose, simply there to waste travellers time. Others lead to a wider network, eventually coming to the centre, where a pyramid made of the corpses of previous travellers stands. Underneath this structure is a huge, trap-laden, intricately designed temple where Kavalos himself is said to stay, along with his treasures, for anyone daring-or stupid- enough to attempt to take them.

Layer 13 (Owned by Bludspiter/Redpelt) (Trigger Warning: Disease, Small Bit of Gore)

Layer 14: The Hollow Material (Owned by Mushisama/DrakenBrine)

Close your eyes and visualize. The world we know today, with all its trees and sand and clay and stone. With its vast deserts and endangered rainforests. The endless horizon hiding secrets unknown to all but those who travel. Now, imagine it without mankind. The forests no longer harmed. The world colder that it is now, unaffected by the heat of pollution. No towers or dams to obstruct your view nor the rivers. The world, the planet, in its supposedly unhurt state.

Now see it, but larger. Flora the size of titans. Creatures thought dead frolicking in their shade, from the feathered reptiles to the specimens lost thanks to mortal greed. Canyons that could hold entire civilizations and still have room. Deserts more expansive than the true material plane is. Oceans whose depths reach into hell itself. A world so unimaginably huge, and so unimaginably diverse, it may well be the birthplace of the gods themselves. But it is not, for this still is the The Endless Dark.

Now, one final request. Within your mind, fold this impossible world over itself and populate with floating crystals between. Gravity follows less rules than before, and the sky is its ground and the ground is the others sky. Trees hanging from their roots and animal’s whose backs face others. The crystals that divide the two parallel yet matching realms float with no support, except perhaps the light that reflects and refracts through them, mocking sunlight from the material in this woefully underground place.

Layer 15: The Distortion World (Owned by Giratana/The_DragonTamer)

The Distortion World is a twisted mockery of the Material Plane. The layer is mostly empty space, with chunks of rocky ground floating within it. As you go further out from the center of the layer, the chunks of matter dwindle into nothingness. If a creature continues into the nothingness, they will eventually disappear from the layer and reappear within 5 feet of where they entered the layer. A creature can either fly between the chunks of matter, which each have their own gravitational field, or jump between them with a successful DC 13 Athletics or Acrobatics check. The Distortion World has three entrances:

Sendoff Spring: A deep, clear lake with a portal in its depths. Prove your courage by diving to the bottom. 

Spear Pillar: The highest mountain peak in Profanus, with a strange altar at the top. At the center of the altar, a portal lies. Prove your power by climbing to the top.

Turnback Cave: A large, labyrinthine cave that stretches beneath the ground. At its deepest part, an altar like the one at Spear Pillar sits. Prove your wisdom by navigating the maze.
