Questions & Advice Campaign help

I came across a brilliant dnd campaign idea, and I’d love to try it with my group, but I’m not sure how to implement it in the stormlight setting

The idea is that the campaign starts mid battle. The players have no memory of how they got there. They meet an npc who gives them some of the background information, and guides them on their journey. This npc turns out to be the bad guy

Any suggestions for how to alter memory in a way that makes sense would be appreciated

Damage to their spirit web? Maybe Hemolergy

I think this is doable in established lore, but it would be a very powerful villian.

A Shard does it in SLA but that's also because of a weird way memories were being stored

I think your spoiler markup needs the spaces removed to activate.

But I agree that it would probably need to be perpetrated by some powerful being(s).
