Within Starfall’s cosmic chaos, anchors may be personal chronal keepsakes, encoded neural patterns, fragments of forgotten worlds, or principles forged in the Spiraltide maelstrom. They are used by Witchwarpers to maintain a foothold in reality, resist the allure of alternate timelines, and stave off the psychic dissonance caused by paradox. Choosing your anchor shapes not just powers, but how your character deals with both internal and external cosmic threats.
Anchors are thus more than mechanics—they’re storytelling tools that help define why a Witchwarper fights to keep one world real when so many others swirl at the edge of possibility.
The Anchor class feature for Witchwarpers is a foundational mechanic in Starfall Galaxy that grounds a reality-bending caster within the turbulent currents of paradox and multiversal possibility. At 1st level, a Witchwarper selects an anchor—a core memory, a focal point, or a tangible object—that serves as a stabilizing force, preventing destabilization from warping reality.
Anchor Class Feature
Your anchor helps you remain centered, granting mechanical benefits and unique anchoring effects when you sustain your quantum field or use abilities with the anchoring trait. This feature infuses your Witchwarper powers with flavor, roleplay depth, and reliability.
Anchor Types
Core Memories: Emotional or significant events that define your identity. Benefit from personal resilience and memory-driven magical stability.
Focal Point: An abstract concept, principle, or belief that guides your actions and decisions. It provides clarity and purpose when reality falters.
Tangible Object: A physical artifact that connects you to your true timeline or self. Objects offer tactile security and may hold hidden powers.
Mechanics
The anchor grants a benefit—often boosting resilience, spellpower, or concentration.
Anchoring effect triggers when sustaining your quantum field, reinforcing your connection to reality and enabling abilities with the anchoring trait.
Anchors are central to roleplaying: they provide motivation, help prevent quantum disorientation, and can be focal points in stories involving identity, memory, and loss.
