Hey patrons!
November has felt like a complete whirlwind, but we've loved hearing all of the feedback about 'The Dreamer Awakens'.
We've been busy behind the scenes getting December finalized (and already working into January and February's releases ) and we wanted to drop another little teaser.
Next month, you'll be able to check out our latest player race - the Chilltouched!

For November's release - The Dreamer Awakens - we included our latest recurring NPC, Sir Oswald the Octopus Knight!
Sir Oswald is hidden somewhere inside the sunken city of Xoggd'tha after trying to single-handedly (tentacle?) stop the Xothe and Somnids from their evil doings. He presents the adventurers with a small side quest in exchange for recruiting him as an NPC ally, and he quickly became one of our favorite parts of the month!

December's adventure "Midwintär's Mourning" centers around the town of Midwintär a small island settlement in a frozen climate. Several children in the town have recently gone missing and it is up to the adventurers to find them!
Many rumors circulate as to what happened to the children, where they spirited away by the holiday fey Mari Lwyd? Pranked by yule lads? Eaten by jötunn trolls? Or victims of something far more sinister? The town does not know... and it is up to the adventure...

December is quickly approaching and we wanted to share just a little of what is in store!
Here is our three-headed jötunn troll shaman, art created by the fantastically talented Eri Welli. The troll went through MANY iterations and Eri did an amazing job with it.
December will introduce an all-new form of troll, the jötunn troll, which has a variety of abilities inspired by Norwegian, Icelandic and Welsh lore.
Jötunn troll...

Someone (or something) has activated the Ashioggd’lin beacon somewhere inside the sunken city of Xoggd’tha.

A brief backstory on the Sunscorned -
When we switched from 3.5 to 5e as a group, some of our players were devastated to find there were no (or - very limited) options for playing a vampire, werewolf, gelatinous cube etc. All things that 3.5 had in abundance. While the amazing content for 5e has continued to grow we decided to take matters into our own hands and created the Suns...
