The Automatons

eunth is a homebrew setting, which is radically different from the standard fantasy settings that are common in Dungeons and Dragons. It takes place 500 years after a apocalyptic event known asthe Reckoning, where a portal was opened to an alternate dimension, the Other Side, that is constructed from the collective beliefs and thoughts of the world, where magic, gods, and fairy tale creatures actually existed. The creatures of the Other Side did not appreciate the greed and self righteousness of the human invaders, thus they mounted a counter attack and spread a toxic miasma across the planet, killing billions of humans. Centuries later, humans are entirely gone. Instead, their genetically manipulated descendants live together with the creatures from the Other Side, forming new societies that will hopefully not redo the mistakes of humans. 14 NEW RACES The following are the 14 most common races in Geunth. There are hundreds more, as the mind has a near inynite supply of inspiration and creative, but these are the ones that you would likely run into on the streets in "the real world" . In all cases, you may choose to replace the racial ability scores with a +2 in a ability of your choice and a +1 in an ability of your choice. Automatons were androids that were made by humans before the Reckoning in order to make lives easier for them. Once the Other Side was opened up, the widely held suspicion that the human-looking robots were sentient became a reality. With their newfound free will, the Automatons fought against their masters and lay claim to the factories that create them. Now they are in charge of their own production. After Automatons are created, they spend about a year to learn the facts of the world, expected behaviors, and valuable skills. Once they are deemed mature, they are expected to leave the factory that birthed them and explore the world for themselves. Some Automatons explore for their entire lives, some ynd places to settle down, and some eventually come back to the factory to help the next generation of Automatons to grow. There are many actions which Automatons uniquely consider tobe immoral. Any creation of an Automaton or other form of android outside of an approved factory is considered a gravesin. It is an unnatural creation which will only lead to suffering and manipulation to the poor machine. Replacing your original parts is also discouraged by Automaton leadership, especially if it is to improve instead of repair. Automatons either choose a designation corrasponding to their serial number, such as Y-24 or Gamma-7, or they adopt "real"names from other races. Your Constitution score increases by 2, and your Charisma score increases by 1. Automatons can be up to 600 years old, but ones that old are exceedingly rare. Most automatons are no more than 200 years old, as maintenance on their parts becomes harder as they age. Automatons are considered mature after one year of life, if they are taught properly, but circumstance may cause them to mature slower than normal. Automatons live in a culture that encourages creativity and teamwork, and are taught from a young age to respect authority and do your best to help the community. The average Automaton is Lawful Good. Your size is Medium. Average Height = 5-7 feet Average Weight = 200-500 pounds Your base walking speed is 30 feet.

Though you cannot be healed by most magic, your body is much easier to repair using nonmagical mea
