considered horribly rude to refuse. The men do not cook or
clean, and typically use either corpses or their wives to do
such. Women are not allowed in public without a man, but
this is also partially due for their safety due to the numerous
dangerous creatures that roam the desert. The men are seen
as protectors and providers, doing the work outside of the
home and training their martial and magical prowess while
their wives work to raise children and ensure the home is
kept clean.
The reachfolk have nobles, but it is not as severe of a
power difference between them and the commonfolk as many
other countries. Their nobility does still hold far greater
riches, but the money is more spread among the citizens as
well. The people of the Artarian Reach, and Dun Kav'r
especially, are more wealthy on average than anywhere else,
and as such many prices seem outrageous to travelers. This
is made worse by the fact that there are few if any other
places to shop, so they know they can mark it up to whatever
they wish.
The people of the reach specialize in fine silks, weaving,
and the smithing of special heavily curved scimitars with
weighted ends, using glass made from the desert sands to
add onto the tip. This glass shatters when it strikes steel,
letting it spray into the eyes of someone wearing a helmet.
The reachmen are well versed in martial combat, despite
favoring the use of undead when possible. Due to these
preferences, the idea of necromancy being an evil or
sacriligeous thing is foreign to them, causing some deal of
trouble if they visit other lands.

of a large chain of islands collectively known as Rissyd. They Ability Score Changes. Your Dexterity and Intelligence

find themselves in. They have a tendency to refer to each
other as cousins, and much of the time it turns out to be true
somewhere down the bloodline.
Ardiz is ruled by a king and his family, the king and queen
being entirely equal in position. The princes and princesses
are treated as being nearly equal to any other child, as they
are likely in some way related to them regardless. There is no
nobility on Ardiz, and instead government officials are chosen
by the king and queen or elected by the people of their
hometown.
Ardizian cuisine uses a large variety of shellfood and
flatbread. The head of a jhulk - a massive crab-like beast - is
considered a delicacy but is rather expensive due to the slow
breeding of the animals. The most famous Ardizian dish is
houza, friend meat wrapped tightly in flatbread and topped
with a creamy white sauce, though sometimes the meat is
replaced with shellfood.
The dress of ardizians is rather modest compared with
many other places, and this includes the royalty. The
closeness of the people as a whole leads to them not wishing
to be seen as above or below each other more than necessary.
The royal family is known to take walks through the towns
and develop personal relationships with many commoners.
The distance between nobility and commonfolk in other
lands comes off as rather unusual to ardizians and can
sometimes lead to them getting in trouble for accidentally
disrespecting nobility.
Many ardizians make their livings as simple fisherman and
farmers, with everyone helping to provide for each other.
Money is still used in their lands, but bartering and trading is
much more common. They like to help others, and trying to
pay them for what they see as minor aid can come off as
offensive to them.
They have special tools called sparkflickers - a curved piece
of steel with a handle and striking surface designed to strike
against their fingernails to create massive amounts of sparks
or even small flames. They use these both for entertainment,
tricks, and for real work such as lighting fires for cooking.

know how to read or write, and it is seen as weakness for a
male to do so. The exception to this is the religious caste, of
which the all male group can all read and write.
Religion: The titanforged have a religious caste that lead
them in what is thought to be right. This caste is therefore
very powerful in the society, being able to dictate the
teachings of the gods themselves. Outside of this caste, it is
expected for all members to follow in worship according to
what they are taught. This leads many tribes to following only
a single god or occasionally a few, specially chosen by the
religious caste for them.

College of Holy Hymns
Bards of the College of Holy Hymns are unique as a form of
divine caster rather than arcane like most of their kind.
Through combining traditional bardic techniques with holy
guidance, they can heal and protect their allies with ease.
These bards are always devoted to a specific deity or temple,
and often travel the world to spread their teachings, seek
knowledge, or root out opposing propaganda.
Their songs and stories are inspired by religious scripture,
and focus on imparting a meaningful message as opposed to
entertaining the masses. Bards who adopt this college are
often compensated by temples as opposed to earning coin in
taverns or courts. Many of these bards are raised in temples,
while others gravitate to the path later in life. While most
who follow this path strive for benevolent causes, this is not
always the case; many pursue a neutral agenda, and there are
even those who use their performances to bolster the forces
of evil deities.
Restriction: Deific
Any who choose this college must follow a deity, and their
piety is immediately boosted to 3 if it was not already higher.
In addition, your spells count as divine rather than arcane.
Divine Resonance
When you join this college at 3rd level, you learn to weave
healing energy into your spells. When you cast a 1st-level or

Inspiration as a reaction to restore hit points to a creature
within 60 feet of you. You restore an amount of hit points
equal to the result of the Bardic Inspiration die + two times
the level of the spell slot used to cast the spell.
Blessed Songs
Also beginning at 3rd level, whenever you would learn a bard
spell, you can choose a spell from the cleric spell list so long
as it does not restore hit points. This spell counts as a bard
spell for you.
Sacred Melodies
At 6th level, you gain the following spells: bless, sanctuary,
and revivify. These spells count as bard spells for you, and
don’t count against the number of bard spells you know. In
addition, whenever you restore hit points to one or more
creatures on your turn using your Divine Resonance, you may
give one of those creatures resistance to a damage type of
your choice until the start of your next turn: cold, fire,
lightning, necrotic, radiant, or thunder. You can do so only
once per round on your turn.

Hart-La-Nen (Aquatic Knights) L10
The Defender of the Sea is a warrior of the highest standing L15
in the Lendorean society. Upon entering the order, the young
men begin vigorous training in the trident, harpoon, khat-tal,
and net.
The new knight also becomes the keeper of a chi-len-ma,
who he will bond with and take care of for the rest of his life.
The chi-len-ma is a very large sea serpent, about twice the
size of a shark, and will become the knight's mount. No
mainlander has ever figured out how the bond works, for the
Hart-Na-Len can call their mounts to them from any shore,
but without making any audible sound. There seems to be a
form of telepathy between the beasts and their riders.
Form the beginning of their training, the young knights
begin to work on a suit of armor made from large round
shells of different sea creatures. They form this into a
breastplate and shield. Every day, the shells are coated with a
special oil and left to dry in the sun. This oil hardens the
shells, until after five years of coating, the shells are harder
than steel yet still lightweight. When a young knight turns 18,
he must perform the "Yuen-Len-Thos" - a difficult obstacle
course that is both under and above the sea. If the knight
gathers five out of seven rings in the Yuen-Len-Thos, he is
allowed to wear the armor he has made, and serve as a Hart-
Na-Len.
Killing a chi-len-ma for food or sport is a death sentence for
anyone. Entire clans will hunt a person for months tracking
them down to take them and put them to death by drowning.
Restriction: Lendorean Only
The Hart-La-Nen are a special order that can only be joined
by Lendoreans after undergoing the trials and training they
need to be accepted.
Knight of the Sea
Beginning at 3rd level when you choose this martial
archetype, you are bound to a leviathan, a Chi-Len-Ma. This
creature will serve you in aquatic combat as a mount.
In addition, you can hold your breath while underwater for
a number of minutes equal to your fighter level and your
swim speed increases by 5 feet.
Lendorean Heritage
Also starting at 3rd level, whenever you use a trident, spear,
khat-tal, or net, you gain a +1 bonus to the attack rolls.
This bonus increases to +2 at 10th level, and +3 at 15th
level.
In addition, you do not take disadvantage for using any
weapon underwater, and your khat-tal does not automatically
miss past its normal range underwater and only has
disadvantage if attacking a creature at long range.
Chi-Len-Ma's Bond
Beginning at 7th level, while mounted on your leviathan, both
you and it gain a +1 bonus to AC.
While not mounted on your leviathan, both you and it gain
a +1 bonus to damage rolls.
In addition, any time you are on a shore, you can
telepathically call your leviathan to you, so long as you are not
incapacitated. It will arrive as quickly as possible, but it must
still swim to your location.

Cerebral Blind
Beginning when you reach 6th level, you can lash out with
your psionic abilities, rendering the visual organs of
creatures around you useless. As a bonus action, you can
expend 1 psi point to force a creature you can see within 30
feet of you to make an Intelligence saving throw against your
Psionic Save DC. On a failure, you appear invisible to that
target until you deal damage to them or until the end of your
next turn.
Lucid Buffer
Starting at 11th level, you have greatly enhanced your mind's
defenses. When you or a creature you can see within 30 feet
of you must make an Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma
saving throw, you may expend a number of psi points up to
your Intelligence modifier as a reaction to give that creature a
bonus to the saving throw equal to the psi points spent. If
multiple creatures are effected by the same effect, each
creature of your choice in range that you can see can add this
bonus.
Mind and Body
Beginning at 17th level, the first time you manifest a power
you gained from this class on your turn, you may use your
Flurry of Blows or Patient Defense as a bonus action without
expending a ki point.
