Mana
Pillars of Power All magic in Animaria originates from the twin

energy found in the world. Indeed, it is but one of four pillars matter. Animaria is able to take in cosmic mana through its

the Veil, psionics, and aioessence. the world, converting it to what is known as convergence
mana. Convergence mana is filtered through the world and
allows for the existence of life.
Animaria, akin to a living organism, has a core composed
of a unique magical ore called renika. This renika core acts
as the world's heart, absorbing cosmic mana from the stars
through the earth and its various life cycles. It then trans-
Mana forms this cosmic mana into a more tangible form known as
convergence mana. Once converted, Animaria channels this
convergence mana through a network of vein-like leylines
that traverse the world through massive underground
tunnels or unseen through the open air. This nourishes and
fuels all living things, be they plant, animal, or sentient
being.
Cosmic Mana
Cosmic mana serves as the power source for those who
The Veil wield arcane magic on Animaria, such as wizards. These
(Ethereal Chronomancy) spellcasters have the ability to convert the ambient cosmic
energies around them into a raw magical force, which they
harness to cast spells. Cosmic mana is versatile and allows
for the creation of inanimate materials, such as minerals,
gasses, and chemical compounds.
Convergence Mana
In contrast, casters of primal magic draw upon convergence
mana. This mana type is created by Animaria itself as it
processes cosmic mana. It is the life force that sustains all
Psionics living creatures on the planet. Primal spellcasters, like druids
and rangers, tap into this energy source to empower their
spells and manipulate the natural world.
Divine Magic
For those who seek to wield divine magic, it's a matter of
faith and conviction. These spellcasters, primarily clerics, use
their own souls as conduits to transform convergence mana
into divine spells. This ability is made possible through the
influence of the Veil on the energy of one’s soul, allowing
Aioessence such strong mental and spiritual belief to manifest as magic.
(Anti-Magic)
Clarion Mana
Clarion mana occupies a unique space between cosmic mana
and convergence mana and is exclusive to renika. Unlike
the other forms of mana, clarion mana can be harnessed by
spellcasters of all disciplines. This allows them to make use of
renika as components, foci, and mana storage.

Renika
Renika is a remarkable substance that bears resemblance to
lapis-lazuli but with a distinct property – it absorbs cosmic
mana. As it absorbs this energy, a golden crust gradually
forms on its surface. This process purifies the cosmic mana,
transforming it into convergence mana. When renika is fully
encrusted in gold, it reaches a state of equilibrium where
it continually absorbs cosmic mana and emits convergence
mana. During this state, a rare form of mana exists within
the renika known as clarion mana.
Pure Renika
Pure renika is a highly prized commodity, safeguarded
zealously by the Heliacal Prime Theocracy. This substance
constitutes the very core of Animaria and plays a pivotal
role in shaping the planet, distributing mana through its
leylines, and facilitating the creation of convergence mana.
It is the source of life itself. It is understandable then, why
turning this substance into a powder and combining it with
other metals to form renik steel or forcing it to condense
into crystals to create flying ships, can be seen as somewhat
controversial.
Renika Crystals
The tumultuous events known as the Maelstrom that formed
the sky continent of Alyssia led to the shattering of renika
on the Veil's surface, a temporal barrier that envelops
Animaria. These renika fragments, much like seeds, began to
grow and multiply, albeit in uncontrolled conditions. Exposed
to open sky however, and wildly growing haphazardly, the
renika coating the bottom of the Alyssian islands is equally
as much of a danger to the inhabitants of the islands as
it is a necessity to keep the lands aloft.
Ingenious scholars came up with the idea of therefore
mining the very substance that kept their islands aloft.
Doing so proved dangerous as the disruption of the mana
flows could result in chaotic magical surges, not to mention
the possibility of deteriorating the buoyancy of the floating
islands. The key was moderation. The renika needed to
be mined just enough so the mana disruption could be
contained, and the islands could be kept still.
The Lunalian Council set their best enchanters to study the
renika, and learned how to magically alter and condense the
pure renika into a crystal form, granting actual control over
its moderation of mana. Renika crystals, like pure renika,
retain the unique property of being lighter than air, the mana
flowing through them changing their density by an extreme
factor. Now however, the magical energy stored within could
be tapped and used as a fuel source or to power sunfire
cannons, actively consuming the energy and functioning
as an engine, then waiting for it to recharge, which now
happened much faster in this crystallized form.

structure. In this way, the utilization of aioessence relies
upon the Veil in order to functionally exist.
Unlike mana, aioessence cannot be woven into magic.
Instead, it can be channeled through a conductive substance
to provide raw power. This power can be used to disrupt
mana, reinforce the body of a bonded soul, and even
concentrated into energy blasts. These uses are seen widely
practiced among those that wield aioessence such as the
renik knights, but there is also an additional use of the
energy which is less commonly seen. With proper implemen-
tation and engineering, the raw power provided by aioes-
sence can function as energy for various mechanisms. This
power still requires a bonded soul to be utilized however,
meaning aioessence users must act as catalysts for any and
all aioessence-fueled technology.
The only known substance that can act as a conductor
for aioessence is an alloy crafted from chemically-treated
renika mixed with other metals. During the Hundred Year
Eclipse, a secret group of premordians attempted to create
something that could reverse the mana absorption trait of
renika to be used as a deadly weapon against the Lunar
Hordes. However, these experiments only yielded a toxic
metal they called "blightsteel". The poison radiating
from this creation was lethal to both premordians
and lunar invaders, and so was deemed too
dangerous to be used. The project was sealed
away and those who had performed the research
took their discoveries to the grave. Unbeknownst to
the premordians, without the interwoven ethereal energies
of the Veil to unite soul and aioessence, a substance capable
of conducting aioessence could not be perfected.
Centuries later, well after the Veil had been risen, the
elves of Crystalfellen had resumed this research. They
sought to understand all that renika had to offer, including
its more profane capabilities. Unfortunately for them, they
Electricity in Animaria
Aioessence functions similarly to electricity. While electrical energy is
possible in Animaria, mana acts as a resistor and prevents it from being
reliable, especially in mana-rich environments. Aioessence does not have
this problem, and in fact benefits from high concentrations of mana.

or create a magical dead-zone, whether by chance, or on
purpose.
Finally, of course, the Iltherian Empire used renik steel
in its efforts to destroy magic, while their successors in
New Iltheria only use it to process magic into fuel for their
industrial lifestyle. The former empire’s uncouth use of this
alloy across Animarian history has tainted most study of
it, with many who use or research it outside of New Iltheria
often suspected to be old imperial sympathizers.
Mana-Withering
When a creature is exposed to renik, the convergence mana
coursing through them withers away along with their life
essence. Some hardy folk can resist this for a time, but
anyone who weaves magic is exceptionally vulnerable to the
withering degradation.
Soulforged
During the myriad of experiments performed by Iltherian
renik smiths, it was discovered that constructs and other
mechanical devices can be infused with a renik-bonded soul
to become animated and powered by aioessence through
the soul's manipulation. Such creations do require mana to
fuel the aioessence generation but offer incredible power
and unique capabilities in the form of technological marvels
called the Soulforged.
None of these Soulforged have been as widely feared as
the renik constructs. Massive hulks of renik steel animated
by an Iltherian soul and powered by renika furnaces.
These war machines plague the nightmares of magic
weavers across Animaria.

souls would return to the moons upon their death, so too
would the zayan-kuu souls. However, with the barrier
of the Veil in place, the zayan-kuu souls cannot return
to the moons. Thus, these wayward souls travel the
strands of destiny within the Veil to be reborn in the
body of a newborn human, granting their powers to

Despite this curse, most Dewisk have embraced their
existence between life and death, creating a sect of the Dyad
religion out of balancing the light and dark.
While the curse upon their lineage causes the Dewisk to
resist healing magic, they are capable of absorbing the power
of undeath into themselves. Additionally, they no longer have
need for food, drink, breathing, or sleep. This allows them to
be incredibly efficient, and they are oftentimes bored when
traveling among others who require regular sleep. Some of the
more fanatical members of the descendant bloodline make use
of this excess time to practice their final pose for when they
join their ancestors at the end of their life.
The Dewisk are unusual in that many of them leave their
family to serve as guardians and knight errants in the rest
of Animaria, renouncing their birthright. Collectively, these
members of the descendant bloodline have adopted the
surname of Dewisken to represent taking them-

prowess that they manifest their extraordinary capabilities,
defying the limitations of the physical realm and wielding an
unparalleled control over the world around them.
These masters of the mind possess an innate ability
to seize command over the fabric of reality itself. With

Your absurd luck, or the extrasensory

perception of your “Evil Eye”, allows you
to react even when the enemy gets the
drop on you. If you are surprised at the
beginning of combat and aren’t incapaci-
tated, you can choose to not be surprised.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use
it again until you finish a long rest.

Oculus Overwhelm!
9th-level Evil Eye feature
You have learned not to leave everything to chance, or to

succumb to your Evil Eye’s influence if necessary. When you
suffer a condition on the Oculus Overwhelm table below, you
can use a reaction just before the condition takes full effect.
You are able to just barely move yourself to a slightly more
advantageous position, and instead gain the condition or
suffer the effect listed in the Exchanged Effect column on the
table.

Aethergarde Bastion
In the vibrant trade city of Locke, nestled at the eastern
mouth of the Uoglu straight, there stands a fortress of great
importance - Aethergarde Bastion. This fortified stronghold
stands not only as a formidable fortress but as a living
testament to the resilience and creativity of its inhabitants. It
has become a sanctuary for refugees who managed to escape
the clutches of the oppressive Iltherian Empire. Founded by
the renik knight Adira of Wolvesget, the bastion's walls are
reinforced with the resilient anti-magic renik steel, providing
a secure haven for those seeking respite from their tumul-
tuous past.
Expression Unhindered
Situated as a distinct walled district within Locke,
Aethergarde Bastion is a striking architectural marvel among
the rest of the city. The bastion's green-tinged stone walls
rise tall and imposing, adorned with watchtowers and defen-
sive structures strategically placed to safeguard its cherished
residents. However, these fortifications do more than protect;
they also bear witness to a unique architectural style that
blends the remnants of former crushing uniformity with the
unrestrained explosion of creativity.
Within Aethergarde's walls, the buildings themselves are
canvases upon which the renik knights' aesthetic preferences
are painted. The once-repressed artistic spirit flourishes,
mingling defensive elements like parapets and reinforced
doors with wild and expressive forms of architectural
artistry, all done without the use of magic. As one traverses
the bastion's cobbled streets, they are met with a visual
tapestry that tells the story of a people breaking free from the
bonds of oppression. Each building is a work of art in itself,
showcasing the diversity of styles, colors, and designs that
reflect the uniqueness of its creator.
Beyond its artistic charm, Aethergarde Bastion thrives with
a deep sense of camaraderie and shared purpose among its
inhabitants. Their collective focus centers on the principles
of freedom and resistance against the oppressive shadow
of the Iltherian Empire. Daily life within Aethergarde is a
fixture of community support, where residents rally together
to help one another rebuild their lives after escaping tyranny.
Vocational training and educational initiatives are common,
The World of Imaria aimed at integrating newcomers into the world outside the
Iltherians. Residents gather in communal spaces adorned
with colorful murals and sculptures, celebrating their
newfound freedom and unity. It's a place where talents are
nurtured, and dreams are given room to flourish.

Meggmok
An immense reptilian creature with crests of feathers
interspersed with its hardened granite scales.
The meggmok terrorize the Shikarn Steppes, consuming
anything that gets in their path with impunity. They are
greatly feared and respected by the hobgoblins that live
there, who see hunting the beasts as one of the greatest
challenges a warrior can aspire to. The meggmok are the
product left behind in an incursion by the Lunar Hordes.
Inside their blood, a powerful celestial presence lies dormant,
awaiting its host's demise. A meggmok on the brink of death
will erupt in radiant flame, breaking away its rocky hide to
give way to the glowing angelic beast beneath.

Welcome to the
World of Animaria
Unleash your power in a time-woven realm of psionics,
mana, and anti-magic! This book provides the details needed
to participate in a 5e game set in the world of Animaria.
Animaria is an anime inspired 5e-compatible setting guide infused

with unique gameplay that will revitalize your Fifth Edition gaming.
It is set in a realm based around four Pillars of Power: ethereal
chronomancy, psionics, mana, and the anti-magic known as aioes-
sence. Together, these powers shape a vibrant and extensive world,
cut off from extraplanar forces by a net of temporal energy known
as the Veil. Here, you'll find a thriving and expansive world infused
with captivating gameplay elements, such as godless realms, magic
vs anti-magic, chronomancy, anthropomorphic peoples, technology
like black powder and airships, and the intense connectivity
between manipulating destiny and the promise of fate.
Animaria has distinctive feats, items, and monsters, sixteen new

spells, an overhauled inspiration system, vehicle builder, and
other augmentations, and over 20 subclasses, two for each class,
designed around favorite anime tropes and archetypes. But that's
not all! Animaria introduces three new classes - the anti-magic
Renik Knight, temporal Magical Guardians, and the reality-warping
Espers. Whether you want to charge into battle wielding the
awe-striking power of aioessence, transform yourself to protect the
Veil from nightmare incursions, or manifest standing shadows to
fight for you, the possibilities are endless!
Envision a winged elven monk, harnessing chronomantic energies

to morph into a stylish time-altering form, effortlessly sidestepping
a speeding bullet. Simultaneously, a goblin evil eye rogue taps
into her magical eye’s “dark power”, miraculously causing her
slinging repeating flintlocks to find their mark, even after initially
missing their target. Meanwhile, a 'lupine' wolf sorcerer deftly
spins the threads of karmic chance to defy fate itself, only to watch
in astonishment as their magic is absorbed by the mana-thirsty
energy sword of a renik knight. Imagine the scene as an orcish titan
barbarian slowly approaches a fort's imposing wall, covering their
body in armored bone and muscle before delivering a thunderous
swing that shatters it, clearing the path for her allies. But just as
victory seems assured, a two-tailed fox magically transforms with
the power of time manipulation to touch the rubble and seamlessly
restore the wall to its former state. All of these fantastical feats and
more come to life within the mesmerizing world of Animaria.
Grab your dice, record initiative (prepare to have it tampered with

by a Bard of the College of the Idlemaster) and get ready for an
adventure worthy of time itself!
