Cinematic Environs - Blasted Lands
Davae Breon Jaxon's Cinematic Environs series of supplements is designed to help DMs paint vivid cinematic scenes for their players in a way that gives the environment its own unique character. These environs can take a mundane encounter or location and turn it into an epic scene that the players will be talking about for year to come. This seventh in the series deals with Blasted Environs. It discusses the effects of quaking earth¸ choking ash¸ acid pools¸ rivers of lava¸ scorching heat¸ and generally the worst conditions one might encounter on the Prime Material Plane. Now¸ instead of simply sending the party to the necromancer's tower¸ the DM can have the tower in the middle of a smoldering plain of poisonous fumes¸ caustic geysers¸ and blistering heat. Instead of a few weeks of downtime in a beautiful walled city overlooking the sea¸ the characters are forced to flee as a volcanic eruption darkens the sky and sends a dealy pyroclastic cataclysm to bury the city forever. Also included is a new character background¸ new equipment¸ weapons¸ materials¸ spell¸ creatures¸ and details on how to apply the Blasted Lands conditions and hazards to any location in your world¸ if you want to shake things up... literally. Look for Arctic Lands ¸ Desert Wastes ¸ Mountains ¸ Aerial Reaches ¸ Aquatic Depths ¸ and Survival also on DriveThruRPG¸ as well as more Cinematic Environs coming soon!
