400+ Pages of Darkness
Delve into the forbidden and the profane with Dark Descent, a pair of 200+ page dark fantasy tomes for 5e.
Descend into the lightless depths beneath the world and claim the forbidden lore of ancient civilisations. Master blood alchemy, wield infernal magic that risks unleashing elder evils, play as twisted subterranean races, and unearth powerful magic items that come at a terrible price. Face off against the terrifying monsters of the depths, and persevere through six harrowing adventures that combine into one mega-campaign.
Welcome to Deephold, Exile!
Explore the terrifying subterranean realm of Deephold, where the wretched and the condemned scrabble to survive in the crushing dark, and unthinkable things slither in the depths. Pick through the blasphemous remains of the fallen Anak empire, watch your back among the exiles and criminals of Low Town, and learn to love the light of your torch as the darkness of the deep earth closes in...
Exiles of Deephold
The only way up is down in the Exiles of Deephold, a 200+ page adventure and bestiary book that condemns the characters into the depths of the earth.
Infected with the eldritch affliction known as voidstone sickness, the characters are headed for a slow and agonizing death - unless they delve ever-deeper into the darkness of Deephold in search of a mythical cure.
Magic of Blood & Shadow
Unearth the lost arcana of Deephold’s vanished rulers, the mysterious and debased Anak.
Spellcasters can now tap into infernalism - a forbidden school of magic that draws power from elder evils. This dark art includes 50+ new spells, each with the potential to be amplified at the risk of unleashing uncontrollable forces.
Adventurers may also master blood alchemy, crafting potions, balms, and poisons from the blood of others - or themselves. In Deephold, every monster is a potential reagent for a skilled alchemist.
Subterranean Races & Forbidden Subclasses
Discover 8 brand new subterranean races adapted to the darkness of Deephold. Scurry away from harm as a perceptive, quick-limbed hulderling, or push yourself beyond mortal limits as an alchemically-fuelled fleshcraft.
Delve into forbidden secrets as one of 8 new subclasses. Channel the blood of your victims into profane healing magic as a Viscerist rogue, or become one with the darkness of the deep earth as a druid of the Circle of Gloom.
Unholy Bestiary
Dark Descent contains an expansive bestiary full of 70+ deadly subterranean terrors.
From the chittering, eyeless cannibals known as woldlings to the shadowy soul-eaters that stalk careless spellcasters through the dark, Deephold is teeming with terrifying monsters to menace your players with.
200+ Premium STL Miniatures
Take your DMing to a whole new level of impressiveness by 3D printing the magnificent monsters of Deephold to spark true fear in your players' hearts.
These sculpts are works of art that are sure to make any mortal quake in their boots.
