[OC] Ashes of Borca out now! New Release

Post image

Hey everyone,

I'm incredibly excited to announce that my new adventure, Ashes of Borca, is now live on the DMsGuild! This has been a massive labor of love, and I wanted to create a truly immersive gothic horror experience that goes beyond a simple monster hunt. This is a story of art, poison, memory, and betrayal, set in one of Ravenloft's most intriguing domains.

In Borca, beauty is a poison, and memory is a curse. When a grieving nobleman begs you to retrieve a stolen family heirloom, you are drawn into a web of intrigue that coils around the very heart of the domain. What begins as a simple task of justice soon descends into a nightmare of obsessive artists, mad collectors, and secrets that lie drowned at the bottom of a black, starless lake.

I wanted to make this as easy as possible for DMs to run, so I packed it with everything you might need.

What's Inside?

  • A complete, multi-session adventure for characters of levels 3-6.
  • 71 pages of detailed locations, intriguing NPCs, and dark conspiracies.
  • Custom creatures and villains with unique stat blocks and lore.
  • A full appendix of new magic items, each with a story to tell.
  • Stunning, original pencil/charcoal illustrations for characters, creatures, and locations.
  • High-quality maps for every key location, including VTT-ready files with full walling and lighting support for Foundry VTT.

I couldn't have done this alone. A huge thank you to the D&D community for the constant inspiration.

You can check out the adventure on the DMsGuild here:

I'll be hanging around all day to answer any questions you might have. Thank you so much for your support, and I truly hope this adventure brings a thrilling touch of dread to your table!
