Sneak Peek - Megaliths & Binding of Vampyr Ritual

Added 2023-06-15 20:19:47 +0000 UTC

Hey everyone, and happy Sneak Peek Thursday!

Today I present to you a small portion of my upcoming map; The Megaliths & Binding of Vampyr Ritual

I'm very excited to be working on this map because it covers two areas at once. First and foremost, I made this map with the Binding of Vampry ritual in mind, written by Lunch Break Heroes. This ritual acts as an "end boss" beyond Strahd and allows your players to bind the essence of Vamyr back into the amber before the dark vestige closes the Barovian borders.

If you'd like to get a free copy of this encounter, you can find it on the Lunch Break Hereos site here.

Secondly, this will act as a V2.0 of the Megalith site by the Old Mill (with the four stones).

In addition to creating this map to act as a ritual site, I will be creating a ton of variants:

With the ritual salt circle
Ritual circle with lanterns
Ritual circle with lit lanterns
Without any of the ritual features to use just for the Megaliths

Additionally, I'm very excited to announce that I have hired an artist friend to draw me up some custom assets to use as lanterns. So I'll be providing you all with .png lit and unlit lanterns and creating token markers for them. Since one of the core mechanics of the ritual is keeping the lanterns lit, this allows you to swap out tokens for lit/unlit lanterns throughout the encounter.

In addition to 8 color moods, you'll have tons of options with this map!

Can't wait to share it with you all once it is finished. I'll have it ready by this upcoming Release Monday.

Cheers,

DM Andy
