Personal NEWS about the new studio! I'll be moving out to a new apartment on the second week of September (between the 10th and the 15th). Everything is already ready to go for the Patreon and both maps and FVTT modules will keep coming per the usual schedule. I should get my internet running again on the next day but may not answer your private messages as the usual pace during that time. Fingers crossed I don't encounter any problem installing the fiber there! Thank you in advance for your patience! Can't wait for what's to come! :D

2 - WHAT'S TO COME IN SEPTEMBER?

[MAP] Prowlwood Village [40x40] : After days of travel on poorly kept "roads", your eyes finally meet with the grim green edge of the Prowlwood. Your contact is supposedly in a remote village, located less than a day away from this border. Seven hours later, you reach the hamlet mostly unscathed. Immediately, you notice something strange. The silence. The still, unnerving, eerie silence. What happened here? A large beast? Bandits fleeing from the war perhaps? Could some illness have found this way this far from civilization? You were about to find the answer in what remained of Prowlwood Village and of your contact.

[FoundryVTT module] : Astral Shores [OVERSEERS and above]

[FoundryVTT module] : Blackbloom Rampart [OVERSEERS and above]

[MAP] Lone Cottage [28x21] : A peculiar cottage stands alone in the middle of the encroaching woods. "Come in!", croaks an elderly voice, "Inside you shall find warmth by my hearth and peace under my roof." As the door creaks open, you discover a humble yet cozy cabin, filled with the heat of the crackling fire. The air echoes the bubbling of a pot in the fireplace, and the faint hissing of several alchemical contraptions. In the middle of the ground-floor, a strange, tall tree rises up to the roof, its leaves buzzing with fireflies. "Come in, don't be shy!" the voice repeats. Will you enter?

[FoundryVTT module] : Dreaming Dale [OVERSEERS and above]

[FoundryVTT module] : Druid Circle [OVERSEERS and above]

[FoundryVTT module] : Egregious Path [OVERSEERS and above]

 [MAP] City Cistern [40x40] : The Old Town was always the mirror of the city prosperous development. Beyond the grins of the shop-keeps, under the shiny floorboard of the embassy, beneath the cobble streets stirred something ancient, primeval. Few did know that the district was built on the ruins of a much older settlement of unknown origin. There, in the labyrinthine succession of collapsed tunnels and aqueducts, something primordial stirred, occasionally leaving its dark chambers for brief visits into the numerous sewers and cisterns that were connected to its lair, much to the dismay of the city workers.

[MAP] : Halflight Well [30x40] : For days now the residents of a small hamlets have been reporting strange symptoms. The illness strikes down randomly it seems, from low born to nobles. Nobody is spared. Fear has taken a grip on the village. Pilgrims, foreign merchants and all other strangers are now eyed suspiciously, accused of being cultists of forbidden gods or malevolent casters looking to cast a harmful spell on the villagers. When your party decided to take a look into the local well, the mystery started to clear itself up.

Keep in mind that this list is provisory and things may be altered if needed! Have a wonderful day!
