Villages of Ashlar (and a Witch's Hovel)! (Patreon)

As you might recall, Villages of Ashlar was meant to release last month, but problems with the physical print versions of the book forced me to delay it a month. Well the wait is over! 

As well as gathering all of Ashlar's villages in the same place for the first time I'm particularly excited about this release because Tommi Salama has updated many of the village maps to his own epic style. Tommi has done all our Gloamhold and Ashlar maps to date and I couldn't be happier with how they turned out.

This week, we also release Monstrous Lair #17: Witch's Hovel for everyone with witches in their campaign (and who doesn't have witches in their campaign?)

About Villages of Ashlar

A  Pathfinder, 5e and System Neutral Edition Compatible GM’s Resource by John Bennett, Creighton Broadhurst, Greg Marks and Mark Radle

Come visit dismal Coldwater, plague-riddled Ashford or any of Ashlar’s other villages—Hard Bay, Kingsfell, Longbridge, Underdell, Thornhill, Wellswood, White Moon Cove and Woodridge—with Villages of Ashlar. Villages of Ashlar brings together for the first time every Ashlarian village published by Raging Swan Press. Featuring new cartography by mapping supremo Tommi Salama the book is an essential reference for any GM setting a campaign in the Duchy of Ashlar.

Dismissively called “Fenland” by outsiders for the broad swath of fetid, tidal saltmarsh almost cutting the duchy in twain, Ashlar sprawls along the appropriately named Hard Bay. Effectively isolated from the rest of the continent by a high plateau crowned by dark, silent woods clustering hard against a legion of fantastically shaped stone spires, Ashlar is an isolated realm of hard, resilient folk. To the north lurks the Mottled Spire’s brooding bulk. Within, lies Gloamhold’s doom-drenched halls.

Villages of Ashlar features the following villages:

• Ashford
• Coldwater
• Hard Bay
• Kingsfell
• Longbridge
• Thornhill
• Underdell
• Wellswood
• White Moon Cove
• Woodridge

The 30,000-Word Adventure Challenge

As you might remember, I've been slaving away over an adventure this month. I set myself the challenge of writing from scratch a 30,000-word adventure in September (set in Greystone). Well, I've got some rather marvellous news about my progress. Check out my second update here.
