Devil's Mill
Added 2019-09-28 05:41:59 +0000 UTCThe harvest was complete, and the town of Prosper celebrated its brimming granaries heartily and with due excess. The autumn breeze carried the smell of meat and ale, jostled the colored lanterns and encouraged the perspiring townsfolk to greater feats of music and dance.
Yet, if one were to leave the warmth behind and venture into the sodden fields, they would hear the low lamentations. Atop the the hill, with ragged limbs turning wearily, stood the old mill, bemoaning the secrets that it hid inside, and the regrettable future it bore for Prosper.
I decided to go pedal-to-the-metal Halloween with this one and its upcoming buddy map, the Pumpkin Hill. Together, they depict a ramshackle windmill surrounded by pumpkins on an orange hill.
It seems obvious to me that something dark is festering in here, but what? A solitary lycanthrope or vampire? Is it the secret lab of a scientist obsessed with life and death? Perhaps you would use this as the centrepiece for our Harvest Horror pack from last year:
I want to hear what comes to your mind! Please share them in the comments, and let's crowdsource a killer Halloween one-shot together. :)
Oh, and be sure to check out the alternate PDF, where I've put together a five page printout with immersive surroundings. I think it's nice to have the option of that or the stacking layers, and I don't know why it took me so long to start doing it.

2019-09-28 21:06:22 +0000 UTCThe alt one (should) have a background of the surrounding terrain, whereas the normal one should be our standard affair of layers that you cut out and stack.

2019-09-28 14:05:26 +0000 UTCWait, I don't understand. What's the difference between the original and the alt? Is it just the orientation of the grid?
