Past the Ether of Dreams, above the Tangle of Nightmares, at the foot of the Peaks of Ideals... sprawl the Astral Shores. All dreams, great and small, wash up on these cliffs. There, all memories turn to sand and ash. Stronger fantasies may retain some of their identity. Such dreams coalesce into rocks and plants, sometimes even creatures keeping some aspects of their fleeting reality. Great shoa...

The long winding path slithers amidst the muddy thicket. Tracks of carts and various forest animals are still imprinted in the soil. Vestiges of broken wheels and forgotten equipment litter the road. You hear a distinctive howl in the distance. The pack must be closing in. As you ready your sword and shield, you expect not to see the towering mass of fur eyeing you from the bushes. It is unnaturaly large and brawny for a wolf. The stories were true then. Right now, you regret not investigatin...

A sinister chanting echoes through the night, disturbed only by mad bursts of cackling. A chorus of frogs announce your approach. A raven's beady eye falls upon you, before the startled beast takes flight in a hush of feathers. In the distance, you can already see it. The greenish flame heating a bubbling cauldron filled to the brim with unsavoury ingredients. In the distance you can already smell it : the sickening odour of sulfur and blood. The Sisters...

Every village needs a source of clean water. It is vital. Yet, corruption can take many forms, be it a poisonous extract splipped under a moonless sky in the water supplies, or the rotting corpse of some festering abomination lingering at the bottom of a well.

Twelve kilometers south of the city of Kravikk lays the silent village of Thurgowost. Cestmir Vargol, the local burgomaster, always tried to keep safe the citizens under his protection. The village was but a small hamlet though, and his means were few. Being the sole community guarding the main road to Kravikk and watching over the only bridge on the river Yarig, the problems were many. Bandits attacked convoys trying to pass the Yarig on a daily basis. ...

Mistraelle Velenthil, high admiral of the city's float, delighted in receptions at her citadel of Telass. The fortress was built on a small islet three kilometers from the coast, with high cliffs easy to defend. Today's feast with her family, councellors and friends is given in honor of her daughter's wedding. A new day dawns on this elven family, amongst laughter and music. The Wolf of Telass, as she was appropriately nicknamed, gazes proudly upon the old alliances she wove. Mages, generals,...

Hello everyone ! After some fiddling, I recently found out Inkarnate exported at an uneven pixel range, meaning the grid does not align properly on VTTs such as Roll20 and Foundry. It doesn't matter much for outdoor maps and shouldn't trouble you if you use gridless versions. I was made aware that some of you had problem aligning certain maps properly so I took some time to readjust properly the most needed ones !
Castle Ravenloft is already readjusted for all Gridded H...

Dark truths are whispered behind the veil of secrecy that covers any decent prison. The Brazen Locks, also nicknamed the Somnolent locks for the mind-numbing stench of rotten flesh and corroded metal that pervades the air, are no exception. The guardians, forever mute but always seeing, are not of this world. Magic constructs and unholy abominations born in a crucible instead of a crib. Avoid their unearthly gaze and the burning incense they carry in their nev...
