The Premise
The Sun God was killed 350 years ago.
His soul shattered across the world.
Where fragments fell, reality warped.
Curses linger. Faith falters. The gods remain silent.
You are a graduate of an academy formed in the aftermath of divine collapse — tasked with confronting the lingering wounds of the world.
This campaign is narrative-forward, character-driven, and mythic in tone.
What Makes This magic system Different
• Custom mana-based magic system (no spell slots)
• Magic is disciplined and risky
• Overclock mechanic (push beyond limits at a cost)
• Fragments of a dead god are central to the story
• Pre-industrial setting
The system is streamlined and explained in Session 0. Open to tuning early on.
