State of Play | August (Patreon)

Hey all!

It's our monthly wrap-up for the month of August, as well as the reveal of next month's theme. Let's begin!

August Free Map Poll Winner: East Asia | Lake Village

Every month we're letting Patreon followers vote on a map from the previous month to be added to our ever growing free map collection. From last month's East Asia theme the Lake Village map was the winner!

You can now grab the map from the original post here, and the free Foundry Module has been updated with the Lake Village map!

Drake Hall August Release

This month's Drake Hall release added the Coach Station, Mossy Copse, and Firecreep Cavern maps, as the mysteries surrounding the village of Drake Hall continue to deepen. These maps are now all available in the v14 Drake Hall Foundry module, or map images found on pCloud!

Free MADventure | Flesh Mountain

This month's free Patreon 5e MADventure was Flesh Mountain, and today is your last day to download it for free before it moves onto our web shops!

"Several weeks ago, an ambitious dwarven warlock named Ickthir stole a profane tome from his master, and sequestered himself in the topaz tunnels - a mine renown for yielding the eponymous gemstones. From this new lair, Ickthir sought to transcend his mortal form using one of the forbidden fleshcraft rituals in the stolen tome, filling his body with eldritch strength and opening his mind to the impossible unknowable knowledge of the outer entities.

Unfortunately, the book's rituals were far beyond Ickthir's abilities - but not his confidence. The ritual backfired terribly, and the powers of eldritch flesh were bestowed not upon Ickthir, but the chamber from which he performed the ritual. In an instant, the arroant apprentice was reduced to little more than a mote of flesh, absorbed by the newly-living caverns.

Now, eldritch power slowly creeps from the living caverns, as some ancient awareness instilled in the rock tries to exert a malevolent influence. Villagers have started to go missing, and people speak in blank tones and expressions about the mountain."

Flesh Mountain includes:

A fully formatted adventure journal, including suggested tactics and strategies for enemies.

Next Theme | The Condemned

We're excited to reveal that next month's theme will be larger than usual, as we release maps we created to accompany the MCDM Draw Steel adventure The Condemned.

These maps take place over a number of locations, from urban chapels, hidden lairs, all the way up to the dizzying heights of a floating greco-industrial island filled with factories - and culminating in a daring spaceship flight (or fight!) Even if you are not running a Draw Steel adventure, the maps in this theme provide some beautiful new urban, industrial, and dungeon maps for your collections.

We can't wait to share The Condemned with you over the course of September!

We'll be back in September to bring you another month of content!

Until then,

Keep Rollin' those 20's, folks!
