Wuxia Classes for 5e: Talisman Master

Some warriors trust in their strength.

Others rely on speed, technique, or the refinement of inner power—drawing upon unseen forces to shape the outcome of battle as it unfolds. Their strength is immediate, reactive, ever-changing with the moment.

The Talisman Master chooses a different approach entirely.

They do not wait for the moment to act.

They prepare for it.

To an untrained eye, their craft seems almost insignificant. A strip of paper. A brush. Ink drawn into careful lines that resemble nothing more than practiced calligraphy. There is no visible surge of power, no dramatic gathering of force—only quiet concentration and deliberate motion.

But each stroke matters.

Each mark binds intention into form.

Each talisman becomes a sealed outcome, waiting for the precise moment it is needed.

This is the foundation of their power: not improvisation, but preparation. Where others react to what is happening, the Talisman Master considers what will happen. They build answers in advance—responses to movement, to aggression, to uncertainty—layered within the folds of their sleeves, hidden in plain sight.

This contains a full class up to level 20 with abilities and background, based on Chinese Culture, this is not written by a native of that area so may contain certain cultural biases from a european point of view.

IN THE OPEN COUNTRY YOU CAN RUN. INSIDE, YOU HAVE TO DECIDE.

Violence in the open country has options. A person can run, create distance, or take cover behind a rock. But in a confined space, the options collapse completely. There is no distance to create. There are walls, innocent bystanders who act as both obstacles and vulnerabilities, and the choking smoke of black powder. A gunshot in an enclosed room is a physical event that disrupts the cognitive function of everyone present.

Lonesome Meridian #004: Blood on the Floorboards is a system-agnostic rules supplement focused entirely on the brutal reality of confined violence. It provides modular mechanical systems to help GMs transform indoor gunfights from a clinical dice abstraction into an intense, narrative experience driven by context and environment.

Supplement Features:

• The Pressure System: Track the accumulation of tension in a room before it breaks into violence. Maintain a private Pressure count that rises as weapons are touched, irreversible words are spoken, or secrets are exposed in public.

• The Physics of Confined Space: Learn rules for closer, shared, and destructible cover. Hardwood bars splinter over time, tables fail after absorbing a few shots, and multiple parties are forced to compete for the same protective resources.

• Confined Space Hazards: Implement realistic consequences for indoor gunfights, including heavy black powder smoke accumulation that dynamically reduces visibility across rounds, cognitive paralysis from deafening sound, and broken glass or overturned furniture that permanently alters the floor map.

• The Panic Response: Acknowledge the honest mechanics of fear. When the noise or thick smoke exceeds a character's capacity to absorb it, they face a Panic Response, forcing them to freeze, make desperate shouts, or rush toward unverified exits.

• What the Room Remembers: Manage the critical ten minutes after a fight. Map out what the witnesses saw and track how their terrifying stories distort your reputation throughout the town by morning. Deal with physical forensic evidence like bullet hole trajectories and blood on floorboards that leave a permanent record for local sheriffs.

• Environment Specific Guides: Explores the distinct social and physical qualities of common Western environments, including saloons, crowded stagecoaches, echoing mine shafts, intimate bunkhouses, hotel rooms, and churches.

The town forgives a lot of things that happen on the road between towns. It does not forgive what happens on its own floors.

THE ROYAL PALACE'S MOST LOYAL GUARD COMPANY VANISHED IN A SINGLE NIGHT.

The Ivory Crescent had been the elite guard company of the royal palace of Karath for thirty years. Composed of forty-three expert women soldiers, they were the most effective fighting force in the kingdom, fiercely loyal to the institution of the throne rather than to any individual king. But between the midnight change and the dawn report, all forty-three completely vanished. There are no bodies, no blood, and no witnesses. The king lies paralyzed and unresponsive in his bed, while the court sorcerer, Mage Drehn, remains locked away in his private tower.

Bypassing the main gates, your party is quietly brought into the palace through the servants' entrance at the request of the steward. The corridors are empty, but they are not unoccupied. Something is moving through the off-limits eastern wing that was not there before.

Three weeks ago, the guard captain documented financial misconduct by Mage Drehn, who retaliated with forged documents accusing her of treason. Realizing the deep corruption at play, the Ivory Crescent made a collective decision to hide their evidence cache before confronting the sorcerer. In response, Drehn fed the entire company to a horrific spirit of dissolution that he has been secretly binding and feeding beneath the palace for eleven years.

The Ivory Dagger is a self-contained one-shot adventure designed for a single session. It blends political palace mystery with psychological body horror, where the central tension relies on discovery and the weight of a tragedy rather than simple hacking and slashing.

Adventure Features:

• Perfect for a Single Session: Calibrated for 3 to 5 players at levels 3 to 6, providing a complete 4 to 5-hour experience with zero preparation required beyond reading the zine.

• A Haunting Investigation: Explore empty guard posts and barracks to uncover the final movements of the vanished company. Hand your players the "Formal Declaration," a handout containing forty-three signatures in forty-three different handwritings, proving the guards made a unified, legal choice before they were consumed.

• An Anomalous Entity: Face the Spirit of Dissolution, a unique phenomenon that does not kill its victims, but dissolves the connection to their continued existence. The Ivory Crescent is still inside, fully aware, present, and desperate to ensure the king learns they did not choose to abandon their posts.

• High-Stakes Confrontation: Corner Mage Drehn in his tower. He is a frightened, dangerous, and calculating academic who has spent eleven years making increasingly terrible choices to cover up his initial mistakes.

• Dynamic Climax Options: Your players must choose how to handle the political fallout. Expose Drehn's accounting crimes to the ailing king, negotiate a complex plea deal for house arrest, or bypass the sorcerer entirely to magically destroy the spirit and extract the guards safely.

• SRD 5.1 Compatible: Fully compatible with the 5th Edition Systems Reference Document, ready to run as an intense standalone operation or a major political hook in your fantasy campaign.

If someone is reading this, they have found the room. I hope you are someone who can make a better decision than I have been making.

The district of Argent Row occupies some of the most valuable real estate in Lucentia, a gleaming enclave of luxury boutiques, private galleries, executive residences, designer hotels, rooftop restaurants, exclusive clubs, and fortified corporate headquarters where power is displayed through wealth rather than force and where influence is measured by access rather than territory, and at the centre of this world stands House Vaulenne, the city's most prestigious fashion house, an international brand whose influence extends far beyond clothing into politics, finance, media, celebrity culture, and elite social networks, making its annual Argent Exhibition one of the most important events in Lucentia's calendar, drawing executives, gang financiers, government officials, foreign investors, and criminal intermediaries into a single highly secure environment, but as preparations begin for the exhibition an assassination shatters the illusion of stability when a senior executive is killed in what initially appears to be a personal dispute before intelligence sources reveal a far more dangerous reality, exposing a covert struggle for control of House Vaulenne itself as rival factions within the company, outside criminal interests, private intelligence contractors, and political operatives manoeuvre to secure influence over an organisation whose access to information rivals that of many governments, while a series of carefully planned killings follows in rapid succession, each designed to remove key individuals from a larger strategic game, transforming Argent Row into an operational battlefield fought through surveillance, infiltration, blackmail, manipulation, and precision violence where appearances become weapons and every public event may conceal a covert objective, forcing those caught within the conspiracy to decide whether to uncover the truth, exploit the chaos, or seize control of a fashion empire whose true value lies not in what it sells but in what it knows.

_____________________________

Lucentia never sleeps - and neither should you. In this solo mode, you step into the city alone, taking on jobs, running cons, evading the law, and navigating the hidden currents of factions. Every decision ripples outward: a missed detail can cost more than cash, and a single bold move can rewrite the city’s balance.

To fully experience the chaos, you’ll need your Urban Chaos Core Rulebook. It contains the rules for attributes, skills, combat, factions, Noise, City Pulse, and the systems that make Lucentia feel alive. The solo adventure system builds on these rules, letting you engage with the city as both protagonist and storyteller.

Expect tension, opportunity, and consequences. You’ll roll dice, make choices under pressure, and see the city respond in real time. Every session is a self-contained story, but one that can leave threads spilling into the next.

Solo play in Urban Chaos isn’t about simply surviving - it’s about thriving in a city that watches, remembers, and pushes back. It’s fast, it’s engaging, and it’s yours to shape. Your moves matter. Your choices echo. And the city? The city is always listening.
