-**Sages and the capital** \\ +
-At the end of the railway that runs through the land of exilis is the capital, a glorias city of brilliant light, it acts as a beacon of the land of exilis providing safety for all. \\ Sages are the enforcers of the government, powerful beings that have learned the art of light magic and can manipulate it to their will. This makes the Counsel the over bearing power of the Land as they control the light and lumens but the government in turn controls the counsel. +
- +
-Sages are usually dressed in long decorated robes of various colours showing their rank and golden faceless masks, it is very rare to see what the sages look like underneath their robes. They are known as stern but fair, they only seek order and justice and are overall pitiful and kind hearted even though they are told not to directly interact with the citizens. \\ If you need help a Sage will always be willing. +
- +
-The leaders of the government like any government drunk on power are blind to the threats outside the cties walls and only care about the power they have and obtaining more. +

-**Beholders** \\ +
-a foreign introduction to the land of Exilis, Beholders have made quite a name for themselves, brought it many thousands of years ago by one of the outer entities they have become a common sight in the land, often acting as magical trades shop owners always ready to buy, sell or identify magical items. They are more or less friendly and do not possess their own lanterns, it’s quite often that their shop is also their lair. \\ You will find seven Beholders in the Land of Exilis.+

 **Train Stations** \\ **Train Stations** \\
 There are 4 train stations in the land of Exilis along a single track, Each train station is small and run down looking giving a very lonely vibe. the only one with any kind of positive atmosphere is the last station just before the end of the line which is located in the capital. you can catch the train any time for free but it only goes one way and do not stay on it when it dives back into to sea. \\ Recently the conductor has been charging passengers for trips, its unknown why. There are 4 train stations in the land of Exilis along a single track, Each train station is small and run down looking giving a very lonely vibe. the only one with any kind of positive atmosphere is the last station just before the end of the line which is located in the capital. you can catch the train any time for free but it only goes one way and do not stay on it when it dives back into to sea. \\ Recently the conductor has been charging passengers for trips, its unknown why.

 +====Other Mechanics====
 +**Sight Rot** \\
 +This painful infection causes bleeding from the eyes and eventually blinds the victim. \\
 +A beast or humanoid that drinks water tainted by sight rot must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or become infected. One day after infection, the creature’s vision starts to become blurry. The creature takes a −1 penalty to Attack rolls and Ability Checks that rely on sight. At the end of each Long Rest after the symptoms appear, the penalty worsens by 1. When it reaches −5, the victim is Blinded until its sight is restored by magic such as Lesser Restoration or heal. \\
 +Sight rot can be cured using a rare flower called Eyebright, which grows in some swamps. Given an hour, a character who has proficiency with an Herbalism kit can turn the flower into one dose of ointment. Applied to the eyes before a Long Rest, one dose of it prevents the disease from worsening after that rest. After three doses, the ointment cures the disease entirely.
  
 +**Torrent Rot** \\ A dangerous infection caused by drowned creatures. when infection starts the creature will feel heavy and water logged to start off, as hours pass their movement speed will be reduced by 10 feet and their body will be bloated, after 24 hours wounds will start opening up on the body and water will start leaking out uncontrollably, you regain your moment but now you will take an extra 5 damage from all sources and wield any weapon at -2 to hit, can be cured with heal or lesser restoration, Dry root can be mixed into any common potion for instant cure as well. this sickness is contagious people coming into contact will need to make a DC14 con save or become infected.
  
 +**Entity's Presence** \\ A creature can suffer this status if the come into direct sight or contact with an outer entity and it takes notice of them. the creature suffers disadvantage on all checks, half moment speed and is frightened of creatures it doesn't know for the next 12 hours.
  
- +**Livion Virus** \\ 
 +A terrible horrible virus that is only curable if caught early enough \\ 
 +Upon infection the target has 1 D12 days +3 to get rid of it or become part of the garden \\ 
 +in the first few days you are unable to eat and when you do you throw it back up in a black spew that wriggles and writhes on its own, you will starve but still be unable to eat. disadvantage on Con saves. \\ Further days later you are unable to control your body at times. before your turn roll a D20, on an Odd number the DM decides your turn. \\ in your last days your skin will start to fall off reviling a red fleshy exoskeleton as you slowly start to morph into a livion hornet.
