> [!info] What is this? > The **Dioctionary** is a lore archive for **Diomeades “Dio” Eldwynair**, the cursed paladin of [[Silvercross]], and the **TYRANNICAL** world that keeps insisting it’s fine while screaming internally every time Dio wakes up again. --- ## 🧭 Start Here If you’re new to this rabbit hole, start with one of these: - **Who the hell is Dio?** → [[Dio Eldwynair]] - **Home base of the Eldwynair Bloodline** → [[Silvercross]] - **The Order he fell from** → [[Order of the Lucky Blades]] - **The goddess who wants to break him** → [[Beshaba]] --- ## 🎲 For Players > [!info] Player-Friendly Pages? > If you’re a **player** in **TYRANNY** and don’t want to ruin surprises, you probably shouldn't be here! Go home! You're drunk! That's it, I'm calling the police! If you’re unsure whether a page is safe, **assume it isn’t** and check with DIO. ![[favicon-32.png]] --- ## 🧿 For Lore-Goblins > [!warning] Spoiler Territory > Anything marked with a ★ may contain **heavy spoilers** for Dio's story in TYRANNY. Some of the stuff that doesnt even have a ★ could be a heavy spoiler! There are close to over 400 files in here! I forget which ones exactly are or are not! If you are a player and you read these: you are **Beshaba’s favorite** now, congratulations, enjoy your misfortune. --- ## 🜃 The Vibe His is a world of: - **Luck vs. Misfortune** - [[Tymora]] and [[Beshaba]] pulling at the same soul. - **Cycles and second chances** - Dio dies, resets, remembers, and keeps walking. - **Faith and spite** - fallen paladins, broken oaths, and gods who won’t let go. - **Small towns & big gods** - taverns, quarries, shrines, and cathedrals on fire. If you like: - Tragic heroes with too much time on their hands - Gods who don’t take “no” for an answer - Taverns with too much history and too little floor space …then you’re in the right place. --- ## 🕮 What’s Being Built Right Now > [!todo] In Ongoing Construction > This is a **living document.** Things change, get expanded, or retconned as TYRANNY evolves. Currently under active development: - Expanded [[Faerûn]], [[Silvercross]] & building maps. - Cleaned up NPC entries - Cleaned up Location entries - Updated active TYRANNY LORE as it happens - Updated active PC LORE as DIO finds out about it - Cleaned up images and PNG transparency - Clean DM [[EZMODE]] cheat sheet - Separate areas for 5e vs. PF2e and a Dhampir named [[Zephrael Calderon]] If something looks half-finished, assume Dio died mid-draft and the curse reset him.
