Crafted during the chaotic dawn of Daragaard’s political landscape these rings became a way for the members of the Great Houses Noble estate to communicate across their own houses, as well as inter house without fear of contamination. These rings lend a little more to Athana and Daragaard specific campaigns - but can be moulded very simply to give one of the ability +1s and the effect of non tampering wax!

In the early days of Daragaard, the political landscape was tumult...

This is a transmutation spell of 3rd level, and available to Wizards, Sorcerers and Druids.
Lore
Steel Sinew as a spell was modelled and crafted several hundred years p...

Hello all! It's been a while since I've created a new Corestone so I hope you enjoy! I have previously put out the Corestone of the Fire plane and the Nightmare plane. If you're new to us and have no idea what a Corestone is - the original post can be found HERE.
The anchor to the Feywild itself - the Feystone (or The Corestone of the Feywild) is another ludicrously potent form of cosmic power. ...

Techncially one of the first Vestiges we ever made at our table, but in secret, and as the player that owned it grew, their character grew and the story grew, their trusty Warhammer was recently blessed by the goddess Justice herself, turning Vindicta into the first new Celestial Vestige on Athana for thousands of years.

Hello again Patrons!
It's time for the next exciting update you have been promised, and out of the 4 updates, this one I think is my favourite!
Just to recap, as has been mentioned, we've been doing a lot of thinking and crunching time to decide how best we actually want to run A.C going forwards, what we want to offer, how we want to offer it, the schedule of what we put out and the format of the content. We first decided to roll out Item and Spell Cards which I'm sure y...

The Calamity of Sacria is the most recent major event to happen in Athana, a cataclysmic event happening in central Wigia in early 413aw (Current Campaign year 416aw, Daragaard Setting 821aw), accidently caused by an errant Aasimar by the name of Isaac Ultiodi. The Calamity was the reaction of two planes colliding together, as the Corestone of Earth - the tether connecting the Material Plane and Elemental Plane of Earth was accidently destroyed by the Aasimar, separa...
