Westernos Deep Preview Text (2.0)

Westernos Deep Preview Text (2.0)

Hey folks!

Back in May I shared with you the first half of the Westernos' Deep module and now I'm happy to be able to share with you (most of) the second half! It's still missing the stat blocks for Westernos himself and the hindered guardians (workshopping those currently still), but I'm aware of at least a ha...

Umbrage Hill Photoshop File

Umbrage Hill Photoshop File

Hey Folks! As in some previous instances, the PSD file for Umbrage Hill is too large to be uploaded to Patreon directly (its 350+ MB). Instead, you can download the PSD directly from its link on Google Drive.

Enjoy!

Hey folks, surprise!

Welcome to Arkus, a world filled with colossal trees that tower over a barren earth beset by unending earthquakes. Atop these trees, gnomes build massive mechanical cities, orcs and tabaxi forge an uneasy alliance, and elves take to the skies atop massive palm fronds. Governments, reli...

Hey folks!

About a month ago you all voted between a few Underdark civilizations and opted for the Illithids (Mind Flayers) as the top choice! I wanted to follow up on last month's underdark assets with some additional content that you couldn't necessarily achieve with the assets alone in order to really flesh ...

Statues Part One Update

Hey folks! Quick update here to alert you to the fact that I have updated the original Statue Assets pack Part One released in march of last year.

In addition--since it seems I didn't mention it in the original post--I made another greek-inspired map that year, the 2020-07-03 18:01:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Furniture Assets

Furniture Assets

Hey folks!

Gosh is this one overdue. Earlier this month when I was doing my 'request a battle map' event as I was assembling maps together with just assets it was difficult to restrain myself to only the furniture pieces publicly available and I imagine that's been annoying for you too.

Harbor Assets Workshop

Hey folks! 

As I've gotten into the habit of doing recently, after you all selected the Harbor Assets as the thematic focus for our next Public Assets pack I'd like to open up a discussion for exactly what is included in that pack. Every time I've done this now there's been at least a handful ...

Forest Assets Update

Forest Assets Update

Hey folks,

One of the little side projects I'm working on when I can is going through the backlog of older asset packs and updating them to match current standards. In most cases this means making sure that there non-shadowed versions of the assets as well as the pre-shadowed versions they came with. 

It's rather arduous, but important to maintaining the quality of the overall ...

Public Asset Pack Theme Vote

Hello all!

With the release of the Underdark Assets pack last week we need to vote on our next larger installment of the public asset packs. I've included the remaining options from the previous poll as well as an option for a 2nd iteration of a previous pack. If that option were to win there would need to be a followup poll to decide between the various options:  Forest, Tavern, Sno...

Underdark Civilizations

Hey folks! Random follow-up poll to yesterday's Underdark Assets release.

If you'd please just select from among the various Underdark civilization types below, whichever receives the most interest is where I'm g...

Hey folks!

As much as I love cowboys, abandoned gods, and otherworldly spells, I'd been hankering for a bit now to return to some old-fashioned woodland scenes. This one in particular had been bouncing around in my head for a bit so I finally decided to visualize it!

Mildred's Cottage is that countryside home for your PC's grandma or the charming roadside vendor you...

Hello all!

This is the third and final edition to my series on Spell Assets, markers for you to use to indicate the effects of spells as they're used in combat (or just use as a strange centerpiece in a battle map without spells!).

Many of you may recall a project that I've been hinting at for an embarrassingly long time now: an adventure text to accompany the Westernos' Deep dungeon maps. If you're not sure what I'm referring to, a while back you all had chosen Westernos' Deep to be the location I wrote a module to as...
