Drake Hall | January Release (Patreon)

Hey all!

Here we are with January's Drake Hall content - and it's a big one. Let's get started!

Drake Hall Village Map

We're thrilled to share that this month's Drake Hall content includes an extra piece - a village map! This allows you to share a reference map of the village with your players.

Keen eyed players will also notice that the roof shapes on the major buildings listed on the map match the roof shapes of the individual scene maps for added immersion. We're currently also exploring adding some module functionality to annotate the village map and have it open village scenes automatically for the DM - Stay tuned for this!

Ogre Hovel

The Ogre Hovel is a small stockyard within the village boundaries, which has been hurriedly repurposed to try and provide a living space for the friendly but clumsy young Ogre orphan who recently came into contact with the village, named Lunk. The guards have set up a wary watch post, but children from the village spend most of their time climbing up instead to watch the Ogre. Variants are included for day/night.

Foundry users are able to pass beneath the tree, lamp posts, and neighbouring roof canopies, as well as entering the hotel or climbing up the ladder to the tree house.

Burned Caravan

A caravan bringing a rich noble family to Drake Hall to start a new life has been found blasted with fire in the woodlands. Oddly, their valuable goods seem to have been left undisturbed. The Burned Caravan provides an encounter where characters can investigate the scene of the crime to try and put together information on what could have occurred here, and what the impacts are for the village as a whole. Variants are included for day/night.

Foundry users are able to pass beneath the overhead tree canopies.

Verdant Breach

A strange tear to the Fae realm of nature has opened up in the forest after an unknown incident, and is slowly leeching alien flora and fauna into this region of the forest. Characters who attempt to contain this invasive breach will find themselves coming into combat with large larval creatures which will re-appear, fully matured, in one of the upcoming month's supplements - this encounter serves as an ideal setup to a future combat against giant Fae wasps! Variants are included for day/night.

Foundry users are able to pass beneath several different elevations of alien plant and forest tree canopy elements.

Faces of Drake Hall

We're excited to announce that this month we've once again teamed up with Calebisdrawing for another monthly collaboration!

For those who aren't familiar with Caleb's work, they're a highly talented artist with a brilliant style which we feel matches the tone of our work perfectly. Harrison had previously enjoyed their work recreating the Curse of Strahd NPCs and monsters in their own style.

This month, Caleb created art for Lunk, the kindly adolescent Ogre who has wandered into the village looking for protection from his kin in exchange for helping with work around the town.

Drake Hall is available on pCloud for All the Things tier Patrons, and the Foundry module has been updated!

We'll be back later this month with our January State of Play post, and Faewilds Release #3 will follow shortly after along with the reveal of next month's theme!

Until then...

Keep Rollin' those 20's, folks!Harrison, Alex, & Team MAD
