Compendium of the Far Realm

Void Spawn

Void spawn are alien creatures hailing from the unfathomable plane known as the Far Realm. These aberrations are completely alien in appearance and do not conform to the established physics and geometry of the Material Plane. The true nature of their motives is equally complexing, threatening madness to all but the strongest of minds. Although their true goals may never be fully understood, they do pose a tremendous threat to all forms of life in the multiverse as they seek to alter all forms of life by transforming them into warped monstrosities.

Void Spawn Motives

Due to the remote nature of the Far Realm, void spawn is only capable of breaching the Material Plane due to interplanar rituals or a chance cosmic alignment between the planes. However, even the smallest breach can escalate into a full-scale Void Spawn Incursion. The first sign of an incursion is reports of strange parasites infecting nearby flora and fauna as the void spawn's first goal is to target basic forms of life to acquire enough biomatter to create more evolved variants. Once their horde has grown to considerable size, they will seek to pursue more advanced targets such as humanoids and even more powerful creatures.

Battling Void Spawn

Void spawn are incredibly challenging opponents due to their alien tactics and abilities. One of their primary powers are their ability to infect the minds of their opponents. The primary tactics used for assimilation involves devouring or destroying the mind of their victims. While their prey is in a coma, it leaves it vulnerable for broodlings to infect their incapacitated host, causing the victim to transform into hideous abominations known as void thralls.

Due to their ability to sense the psionic energy of living creatures, hiding from these creatures is nigh impossible barring powerful magics. To make matters worse, void spawn are believed to be a part of a collective hive granting them a form of omniscience and omnipresence across their entire horde. The only feasible way to prevent a void spawn incursion from spreading is to eliminate the source as early as one can. This either involves destroying their means of interplanar travel to prevent more void spawn from breaching into the plane. However, the second requirement is to destroy every void spawn in existence as a single void spawn can eventually spawn another cycle of plagues.

Types of Void Spawn

Due to the seemingly infinite expanse of the Far Realm, it is impossible to capture all the forms of the Void Spawn. However, the following lists several common variants of void spawn one can encounter.

Void Crawlers

Void crawlers are the weakest but most common kind of creature from the Far Realm. These entities can be described twisted masses of flesh and tentacles whose origin is completely alien to anything found in the known multiverse. These tiny abominations are usually found in hordes accompanying stronger void spawn. Typically, the presence of these vermin is often a dire sign of an interplanar incursion from the Far Realm.

Void Broodlings

The surprisingly inconspicuous void broodling is actually one of the most dangerous threats during a Far Realm incursion. Void broodlings represent the first stage of life for many entities through the far realm. In order to reach maturity, the void broodling must find a suitable host to assimilate. Thanks to their unique ability to siphon the psionic energy stored in a creature's brain, void broodlings can infect that creature with its alien consciousness. Once the psionic energy in the target's brain has been devoured, the broodling begins the assimilation process, slowly merging its body with that of its prey.

Void Thralls

Void thralls are the immediate result of a successful assimilation by a void broodling. These creatures are a twisted facsimile of their original forms, warped by writhing tentacles and countless eyes. Although there is not a definite form that these creatures take, they typically have a defining central maw fully of tendrils and several rows of displaced teeth. Void thralls are only driven by an insatiable hunger to devour the minds of any sentient creature within range. After devouring the minds of their prey, they infect the husk causing it to slowly mutate and transform into another one of these aberrant monstrosities.

Void Broodspawn

During an incursion from the Far Realm, there is guaranteed to be at least one broodspawn. The sole purpose of these aberrations is to create more broodlings to infect the local population. Unlike other Void Spawn, the broodspawn primarily serves as a guardian or controller over broodlings and crawlers. In combat, their primary goal is to incapacitate larger threats to allow for their lesser minions to assimilate the victim. Killing a broodspawn can be quite troublesome due to their self-replication. When dealing with these creatures, it is best to destroy them with fire unless they want to risk creating even more broodlings or crawlers.

Void Scramblers

Void scrambler are an advanced form of void spawn. These creatures can be easily identified by their bulbous worm-like body with a myriad of tentacles or claws surround a blank featureless eye or face. Despite their strange appearance, the void scrambler is incredibly dangerous to sentient creatures due to its ability to shatter their minds. When a creature gazes upon their "face", they are exposed to the true madness of the Far Realm which immediately begins to destroy all but the most stalwart of minds.

Void Reconstructors

Void reconstructors are another evolved variant of void spawn. Their primary role is to travel across the planes transforming any organic lifeform into a void spawn. These void spawns are incredibly powerful psionics who have the ability to warp the physiology of a creature. This transformation is fundamentally different from many forms of magical transformations such as therianthropy and polymorphing. The void reconstructor actually changes the biological structure of one's flesh transforming it into the alien flesh of the void spawn. Once fully converted to its void form, the void reconstructor can mold its victim's body like clay transforming it into a void thrall.

Voidborn

When a void thrall fully develops, it begins to mutate into a voidborn. In order to reach this stage, void thralls must consume a considerable amount of psionic energy from sentient creatures. Once enough psionic energy is consumed, the void thrall is able to develop a supernatural intellect and telekinetic mastery from the collective knowledge of their prey. In comparison to their base forms, voidborn are incredibly intelligent creatures as they have fully adapted to the alien nature of the Far Realm. Thanks to their new awakened minds, they possess a wide array of alien powers ranging from psionic redirection, telepathy, and even the ability to shatter one's mind.

Void Seeker

Void seekers are towering void spawn easily identified by their myriad of empty, soulless eyes that cover their entirety of their face and chest. These eyes not soulless only function as a means of supernatural vision but also as their mouths as well. Void seeker use their eyes to siphon the psionic energy from the minds of all nearby creatures. As it feeds on this energy, the void seeker will slowly begin to give off an ethereal glow. Once it has accumulated enough energy, its "eyes" are able to form small rifts in reality unleashing the full chaos of the Far Realm into concentrated beams of light.

Void Displacer

Void displacers are best described as explorers or scouts from the Far Realm. These entities possess absolute mastery of reality and the cosmos, allowing them to travel across the planes with ease. Displacers seek to discover new realms ripe for a Far Realm incursion. However, before they embark on such an endeavor, they conduct extensive research on the inhabitants. It is not uncommon for these creatures to kidnap potential subjects taking them back to the Far Realm, subjecting them to countless experiments and torture to determine how each subject is for assimilation. When encountering void displacers, one should be extremely cautious. Although they are not as powerful as many of their other kin, they have the ability to scatter their opponents across the planes, with little hope of ever returning home.

Void Hulks

Void hulks are colossal voidborn who have undergone numerous physical adaptations. Whereas most voidborn siphon the minds of their victims, void hulks are born when a voidborn assimilates multiple creatures into its from. As a result, void hulks are towering monstrosities of aberrant flesh with numerous eyes and limbs scattered across its body. Despite their physical superiority, the void hulk is quite in is psionic powers and has the ability to fling its opponents with waves of psychic energy and even teleport itself. at will, temporarily shattering the minds of those in its wake.

Void Heralds

Void herald are the next stage of evolution for most voidborn. These entities can be easily identified by their mane of elongated tentacles protruding from their heads that they use to latch onto their unfortunate prey. Once ensnared, the void herald is able to slowly siphon the mind of their victim.

Due to the hundreds of minds absorbed and assimilated by these beings, the sheer psionic presence of this creature cause those without incredible willpower to writhe in agony as its mind is tormented by the infinite madness of the Far Realm. Void heralds are often considered to be commanders of small scale Far Realm incursions. Their primary goal is to foster the growth of a Void Spawn cell on a particular plane, ensuring it grows large enough for when more powerful Void Spawn comes to claim that plane for their own.

Void Overseer

Void overseers are the highest form of evolution for most standard voidborn. These entities are often considered to be embodiments of the Far Realm itself as they very presence can fully degrade one's mind in a matter of seconds. These entities possess incredible psionic potential as they are able to use their powers to warp reality itself into different effects.

Starcursed

The starcursed are another species of malevolent aberrations native to the Far Realm. The starcursed are interplanar predators that hunt and devour any form of life. These creatures are quite alien in appearance matching nothing through the known planes. These creatures are actually completely blind but have an extremely sensitive hearing allowing them to pinpoint the smallest noise. Due to living in the harsh biomes of the Far Realm with extreme pressure and temperatures, these creatures are incredibly resilient and far more durable than creatures of the Material Plane.

Starcursed Motives

The starcursed are driven by their insatiable desire to consume all life and expand their empires beyond the Far Realm. This malevolence towards the living is essential to their survival as they are a parasitic race that requires living hosts to grow their young. Due to the nature of the other races in the Far Realm, it is believed the starcursed ventured into the known multiverse to avoid conflict with their rivals in the Far Realm.

Although their parasitic behavior is also seen in other races such as slaads, the starcursed do not seem to resort to slavery or abduction to maintain a constant supply of hosts. Instead, they resort to genocide, infecting the majority of a population with their young; while exterminating the rest, using them as a source of food. If a civilization is resistant to their assault, the starcursed will simply embark on a bloody crusade against that entire race, assimilating any remnants that survive. After a civilization has been completely infected or exterminated, the starcursed will build their new empire from its ruins before embarking on its next conquest.

Battle Tactics

Like all creatures from the far realm, the starcursed can prove challenging enemies. Their alien physiology gives them supernatural endurance and their blood is quite toxic to living creatures. Their aberrant biology also allows them to quickly heal from all but the deadliest of blows. Despite their brutal and instinctual malevolence, the starcursed are incredibly intelligent and calculating. When an incursion begins, the starcursed rely on guerilla tactics attempting to infect as many creatures as possible before escaping.

Due to the passive nature of their infections, the hosts rarely suspect anything is wrong until it is too late. Once the starcursed have infected enough creatures, they will begin the first stage of their full invasion, timing it to correspond with the gestation of the infected, in order to cause chaos and confusion amongst enemy ranks as their allies turn into ravenous starcursed.

However, the starcursed do possess one weakness. Due to their extremely sensitive hearing, the starcursed are extremely vulnerable to thunderous bursts that will temporarily stun them. However, these magics and weapons must be used wisely as all starcursed in the area will specifically target the source of that sound seeking to destroy it. They also possess a slight vulnerability to fire as it temporarily disables their natural healing.

Starcursed Types

Starcursed society is very complex and is believed to have dozens of hierarchies and roles. However, the following categories lists many common variants that can be found during a starcursed invasion.

Starcursed Mongrels

Starcursed mongrels are considered to be the juvenile form of all starcursed. Starcursed mongrels are born by eating their way out of a host. Once they are free, mongrels tend to flock together in large packs of 7(2d6) that relentlessly hunt anything in their path. Despite their weak form and small size, they make up for their weaknesses with their superior numbers. They also can be found accompanying much more powerful starcursed hoping to scavenge any remnants of their rampages.

Starcursed Predators

Starcursed predators are considered to be the basic form of all fully grown starcursed. These alien abominations have acquired a bipedal stance, akin to that of a humanoid; however, they have been known to revert to all fours when pursuing their prey. Outside of their keen senses as well as relentless hunger, starcursed predators are incredibly dangerous due to their ability to blend into their surroundings thanks to their chameleon skin.

However, their most sinister ability is their ovipositor tail. Once a day, the starcursed predator is able to implant an infantile mongrel into its host that will hatch within a day. Unfortunately, infected creatures do not show any symptoms until right before the mongrel hatches. However, one subtle sign of an infected creature is that starcursed predators will seemingly ignore and will not attack infected creatures, contrasting from their behavior of indiscriminately killing and devouring.

Starcursed Brute

Starcursed brutes are a much larger and heavily armored variant of the starcursed predator. Due to the rapidly evolving nature of many starcursed, starcursed brutes are believed to be a warrior caste within the starcursed hierarchy. They lack the ovipositor tails of their relatives as their primary purpose is to seek and destroy any threat to the starcursed hives.

Starcursed Extractors

Starcursed extractors are considered to be a scholarly "caste" within the starcursed hierarchy. Their primary purpose is to implant their victims with starcursed mongrels as well as perform numerous experiments on their prey. These experiments ensure that the starcursed are able to adapt to creatures with physiologies that would make them resistant to becoming a suitable host. Starcursed extractors believe that this knowledge is necessary to ensure that the starcursed maintain an advantage over their foes by learning their strength and exploiting any weaknesses.

Starcursed Horrors

Unlike other starcursed, horrors are unable to implant their victims with an mongrel. Many scholars believe that horrors are actually a faulty evolution. However, instead of being rejected by the rest of their kind, horrors are treated as shock troops to weaken extremely powerful opponents. When deployed, starcursed horrors will mutilate all creatures in their path with no mercy.

Starcursed Wraiths

Although starcursed wraiths are nearly identical to their predator kin, they considered to be an advanced evolution of the predator thanks to their ability to fly. When a mongrel hatches, it has a one in 10 chance to be born with a divergent mutation that grants it a set of bladed wings. However, despite their mutation, starcursed wraiths seem to serve the same role as predators within the starcursed hierarchy.

Starcursed Exterminators

Starcursed exterminators are considered to be one of the highest forms of evolution that a predator could turn into. Typically, such a process takes years of traveling across the planes as well as constant evolution adapting to each environment. However, the final result is a superior life form which resembles a much larger version of the starcursed predator. Due to their advanced evolution, starcursed exterminators are not limited in their ability to infect creatures. As a result, exterminators can often be the source of any starcursed incursions on a realm.

Starcursed Tyrant

Although exterminators are considered to be the final evolution for many starcursed, some actually have been known to mutate during their metamorphosis, triggering an entirely new growth cycle. Sometimes starcursed exterminators have been known to undergo a temporary hibernation with an alien cocoon that rapidly grows over the course of 24 hours. At the end of the duration, it emerges as a colossal starcursed tyrants.

When fully grown, these starcursed rival the size and strength of adult dragons and have the capability of flight and can spew caustic bile at their opponents. These entities are considered to be generals or commanders that lead weaker starcursed into battle. However, despite their roles of weapons of war, this mutation also has its disadvantages as starcursed tyrants are unable to reproduce as they no longer can infect hosts with infant mongrels.

Starcursed Dreadlord

Despite their incredible size and strength, tyrants are actually considered to be a basic form of its final evolution as a dreadlord. Dreadlords are extremely rare and are believed to only develop after centuries of evolution as a tyrant. In fact, these entities are considered to be the progenitors of all the starcursed as they have regained the ability to infect a host. However, their offspring will not be born as a mongrel but an infant exterminator. Once its young eats its way out of its host, it under goes rapid growth reaching its full size within a day.

Sound Sensitivity If the starcursed dreadlord takes thunder damage, it must succeed a Constitution saving throw equal to half the damage dealt (minimum of 10), or become stunned until the end of its next turn. If the attack or effect gives off a thunderous boom, the starcursed exterminator must make this saving throw with disadvantage.

Spider Climb The starcursed dreadlord can climb difficult surfaces, including ceilings, without needing to make an ability check.

Actions

Multiattack. The starcursed dreadlord can make four attacks: one with its acidic bite, two with its claws, and one with its tail. Alternatively, it substitute a Ovipositor attack for a Tail Spike.

Acidic Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, 5ft, one target. Hit: 22(3d10+6) piercing damage + 10(4d4) acid damage.

Claw Melee Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, 10ft, one target. Hit: 17(3d6+46 slashing damage.

Ovipositor Tail Melee Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, 20ft, one target. Hit: 29(4d12+6) piercing damage. On a hit, a Large or smaller target must succeed on a DC 20 Constitution saving throw or take 30(12d4) acid damage and be infected with a starcursed egg. If this attack reduces a creature to 0 hitpoints, it drops to 0 hitpoints it does not die but is incapacitated and stable until it regains at least 1 hitpoint.

A host can carry only one egg to term at a time. After 1 day, the egg moves to the chest cavity, gestates, and forms a Tiny starcursed Exterminator. In the 1-hour period before giving birth, the host starts to feel unwell, its speed is halved, and it has disadvantage on attack rolls, ability checks, and saving throws. At birth, the starcursed mongrel grows increases to Large size and chews its way through vital organs and out of the host’s chest in 1 round, killing the host in the process.

If the disease is cured before the starcursed exterminator's emergence, the unborn starcursed exterminator is disintegrated.

Tail Spike Melee Weapon Attack: +12 to hit, 90ft, one target. Hit: 17(2d12+4) piercing damage. On a hit, a Large or smaller target is considered restrained (escape DC 20) by the starcursed dreadlord as it is impaled. A creature can use its action to free itself on a successful DC 15 Strength saving throw. On a failed saving throw, the target injures itself on the tail barbs takes 26(4d12) piercing damage.

Infectious Bile(Recharge 5-6) Creatures in a 60ft. long and 10ft. wide line must succeed a DC 20 Dexterity saving throw. On a failed saving throw, creatures take 60(24d4) acid damage and are infected with a starcursed egg. On a successful saving throw, creatures take half damage and are otherwise unaffected.

A host can carry only one egg to term at a time. After 1 week, the egg moves to the chest cavity, gestates, and forms a starcursed larva. In the 1-hour period before giving birth, the host starts to feel unwell, its speed is halved, and it has disadvantage on attack rolls, ability checks, and saving throws. At birth, the starcursed dreadlord chews its way through vital organs and out of the host’s chest in 1 round, killing the host in the process.

If the disease is cured before the starcursed larva’s emergence, the unborn starcursed larva is disintegrated.
