Vampire Den - Room One, Antechamber.
Once, an ancient library of the arcane kept its most valuable tomes in its basement level, where they were guarded heavily and allowed only to be read within the confines of the dark halls, and then, only under the closer supervision of an arcane master.But time crumbles all things. Now the place is home to a vampire, ...
Odyssey of the Dragonlords - Temple of the Oracle & Oracle's Grotto
Well, here's my first post since Zach vanished. I just want to thank everyone in the discord for hanging out and just being awesome in general while I sat there not making things. You're all awesome and I appreciate you way more than I know how to show. I know I don't talk very often, but I read and lurk an...
The Inquisitor (v3)
The attached PDF is an update to my Nightingale class. Enjoy!Also, I am super excited to announce that I have started translating our content onto FoundryVTT, starting with this subclass.Here is the Github Repository and the Manifest URL. It's not too special - just the content as it is in the PDF broken out into s...
Scrolls and Potions
Hey, I'm trying something new to try to revitalize this space. Before I push this to Zach to make pretty, I figured I'd collect some feedback from you guys. This is a light dusting of rules meant to make consumables more accessable and interesting.All feedback welcome!
VTT Tokens
Okay, so this is a bit of a massive file. Basically, I've consolidated several years of our art assets into tokens meant for use on a VTT. There are around 200 tokens here, each one available in one of six colored frames (red, blue, yellow, teal, pink, and green), making the total token count around 1200.They'r...
Hellknight Citadel Map
This map will work for any abandoned citadel, but it is designed specifically to go with Book 1, Chapter 2 from the Pathfinder adventurer "Age of Ashes."For setting a grid (using the zip file, not the previews above), use 100 PPI. This means that since the dimensions are 4400 x 5300, there will be 44 by 53 squa...
Better Know a Monster - The Hob Goblin
It’s been a hot minute since our last update because I’ve been dealing with a very sick pet rabbit, and it’s leaving me absolutely drained.–This comic arose somewhat naturally out of my Red Hand of Doom group (retooled for 5e). Hobgoblins in 3.5 are just kind of mooks. Hit em, they die, that’s it.Hobgoblins i...
Vraath Keep - Grid, No Grid, VTT Files
This is a map for Vraath Keep from the Red Hand of Doom. If you're in my Red Hand of Doom group, don't look *too* closely at anything here. And if you're a DM reading the adventure, you'll notice the liberties I've taken here and there, partly because the map in RHoD only *looks* like it's on a ...
The Trade
To celebrate the release of a new Ravenloft book, we did a mini-arc about that setting's most infamous villain.We had fun making this, and it's based on, perhaps, the most dramatic character death I've ever had at a table. I always sub Candor and the gang out for my tables' characters in these comics, p...
Full Untitled Gothic Comic
We made a ton more progress on this, and are hoping to debut it on Wednesday.Right now, we're working on colors (I'm flatting for Zach today while he takes a break) and SFX (which I don't do until after final colors.)I think it kinda works in black and white, though. I'd letter it differently if it were...
Gloomy Forest Road Map (Tools + Exports)
For the dungeondraft file, simply open it in your own copy of Dungeondraft.For the Foundry module, drop it in %AppData%/Local/FoundryVTT/Data/Modules and activate it when you launch Foundry and activate it as if it were a module. You'll find a compendium called Gloomy Forest Road with the scene in it.
Gloomy Forest Road Battle Map
So I DM a lot on Foundry VTT and I made this for my Curse of Strahd campaign so that I'd be able to run a random-ish encounter on the Old Svalich road.In my own version, there are terrain walls written around the cliffs and boulders so that a DM can more easily adjudicate climbing, and (because I play with vision a...
"One Shot" - Patron-Only Comic
Hey all,Welcome to our first patron-only comic. If you share this image with your friends, please tell them where it came from. =)For those of you who didn't read Ramen Empire, this will be the first time you've met our DM, Sera, face to face. She'll be showing up more prominently in general after Starfall ...
Starfall #35 Sneak Peek - No Letters
I thought it was Sunday, not Monday, so I've not lettered this yet - but have a sneak peek!
Announcing Monthly Prints
Hey everyone,After a lot of careful prep, I'm happy to announce that Zach and I are launching a new reward tier where we send out monthly prints of the comic. At the start of every month, we'll mail out prints of the prior month's comics to everyone at the $25+ support level. It'll be for every comic we...

Starfall #33 rough sketch
Zach is a bit behind. He's been really stressed out by the news.I think this is the first time you'll get a sense of Zach and I's back and forth - those of you who saw the script for this one, at least, a post or so back. We chatted back and forth about this. I ultimately think him bringing the the drop tro...
Starfall #32 Rough Sketch + Initial Letters + Scripts
The next three scripts are attached (with the previous three in front of them, so new content will start on page 4.You can see how the rough sketches are already changing some of the ideas in the script. This is how Zach and I's back-and-forth tends to go, as ideas appear or fail to translate into a panel.
Starfall #31
I uploaded the sketch a while ago and then forgot to also upload the letters x__x
Culture & Physiology 3.0
Our next splatbook is going to be a document for expanded weapons feats. In the meantime, I am still tweaking Culture & Physiology, so here's a new version of it.Patch Notes:Nerfed traits that grant spells, bringing them in-line with the core rulebook tiefling. Moved the cantrip to a new trait. Buffed Pack Instinct...
Core Creatures - Pack 1
Let us know what you think of these =)
Culture & Physiology (Update)
I have no idea what I was thinking with the previous version's layout. It's basically unusable. Here's a sane version with a few small changes for balance and a more readable layout.Edit:Fixed some typos. Added clarity to headers.
Starfall #29
I am so stupidly excited for R3Y's plan, because it is 100% a 'player' plan that would never occur to a DM.
