Technology Assets

venatusmaps post Technology Assets from patreon

Hello all!

One of the primary "gaps" in our asset library that I've been eyeing for a while is the genre of more modern and scifi visuals. While the bulk of D&D and many TTRPGs are geared towards medieval fantasy, there's obviously a significant bulk of the player base that's interested in or currently playing campaigns that look different from your typical sword and sorcery. 

Hence.. Technology Assets! This is a big 'ol pack of machines, devices, spaceships, some modern furniture, and more, all geared...

Haruun

venatusmaps post Haruun from patreon

Hello all!

Haruun is another location from the Candlekeep Mysteries 5E adventure that we've been steadily releases maps from for well over a year now. This cave system is found with the Alkazaar's Appendix chapter of the adventure, alongside a larger necropolis city with a dungeon at its center that is also on my "to do" list.

Monthly Recap January '23

Hello all! 

Looking at some of the results from a poll I put out last month and reflecting on some of my own thoughts regarding this matter, I've decided to experiment with hosting each month's recap here on patreon for the timebeing rather than sending it out via email. So without further ado, here's your recap of everything released in January:

Village Maps Collection

venatusmaps post Village Maps Collection from patreon

Hello all!

For the final map(s) of January I'm very pleased to get to release to you all the Village Maps Collection. It's been a little while since my last "collection" release with the Swamp Collection, so If you're unfamiliar, this "collection" is the equivalent of nine battle maps. Better yet, they are all seamless with one another when combined like the graphic above. This means they can be a...

Combat Assets 3

venatusmaps post Combat Assets 3 from patreon

Hey folks!

If you're unfamiliar with its predecessors, part 3 of Combat Assets focuses on delivering some of the more gruesome elements of setting up a provocative scene for your players. Its contents include a wide variety of "corpses" and their skeletal counterparts, some craters to indicate the impact of elements into the battlefield, weapon debris, and finally some blood markers should you deem them necessary.

What's Included:

  • 21 unique corpse tokens (w/ one alt color va...

Heliana's Tokens Bonus: Friendly Familiars

venatusmaps post Heliana's Tokens Bonus: Friendly Familiars from patreon

Hello token users!

Many of you will likely remember the series of unique tokens I did as a part of the release of Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting last year. They continue to be some of my favorite tokens ever and if you don't already have them, you can filter those posts specifically with the "Heliana's" tag below.

After hitting a stretch goal previously thro...

Mountainside Assets 3

venatusmaps post Mountainside Assets 3 from patreon

Hello all!

The first asset pack of 2023 is Mountainside Assets 3! Part 2 of this series was released roughly 18 months ago and since then we've seen many other areas of the asset library expand as well as a new integration with Dungeondraft. As I returned to this theme to help shore up its possibilities I had a few goals in mind to make sure we included: 

  • Previously we've only ever had 1 "path" for drawing cliffsides in Du...

Newsletter Poll

Hey folks!

At the beginning of each month I send out a Newsletter to the email addresses of every supporter I have here on patreon. I haven't always done this, but started doing so in order to help keep supporters "in the loop" on what was released each month and compile the links for those releases in a single location. 

This poll will be open for 2 days and hopes to clarify 2 points:

Do you find value in a "monthly summary" compiling regular releases? View Post

Adventure: Fear the Dragons

venatusmaps post Adventure: Fear the Dragons from patreon

Hello all!

Today I get to share with you all another product of our ongoing cooperation with the folks at Kelfecil's Tales. This time it's bonus content for you all (because no new maps were developed in the making of it) in the form of Fear the Dragons, a 5E compatible adventure designed to act as both a standalone one shot or an adaptable feature to your ongoing campaign.

Korranir Dreadnought

Hey folks!

Starting off 2023 with what is likely going to be our last airship release with Arcane Minis for a little while as we take a break from the airship theme that was so prevalent throughout much of 2022. Luckily we get to go out with a bang however with the Korranir Dreadnought:

This massive, 4-story airship is perched atop the backside of a massive beast lending its t...

Festival Assets

UPDATE: Example map (see preview) available for download below! Thanks for your patience!

What better way to ring in the new year than with some festivities! This new series of Festival Assets delivers a ton of small assets like flags, streamers, fireworks, festival games and more alongside some bigger structural assets like larger performer's tents, stages, and festive gates and walls.

I hope you'll get to put it to good use the next time a circus rolls through town or the local village starts preparing for its annual...

One Shot Wonders: Map Pack

venatusmaps post One Shot Wonders: Map Pack from patreon

Hello all!

The last map release of 2022 (not counting tomorrow's asset pack) is being devoted to the work I've been doing behind the scenes thus far on One Shot Wonders, a 5E collection of 100 unique session ideas built to run as either standalone one-shots or as accessory sidequests to your main campaign narrative.

For this project I've been very lucky to work with the folks at Roll & Play Press, an ENNIE Award-winning, independent publisher based in London, UK. You might...

The Platinum Mine is our latest addition to the Candlekeep Mysteries 5e adventure, this time specifically the Deep and Creeping Darkness chapter. If you'd like to see more of what we've released for the Candlekeep Mysteries adventure line simply use the "candlekeep" tag filter at the...

Winter is (here)!

Hey folks, got a new asset pack that's been in the cooker for a while now: Winter Assets 2. The sequel to the pack originally released almost 4 years ago, Part Two sets out to continue to accomplish a similar mandate: help make things wintery!

This is a rather large pack that contains a whole lot of (you guessed it) snow. Specifically, its contents include:

  • 473 individual snow piles ranging all sizes

Hello token users!

Got the 3rd set of Forest Foes here, releasing long after the very first set of tokens within this theme were what set my whole token creation spree off from the onset. Part 3, the Fey Fables, features a handful of classically recognizable creatures from your local woodlands, provided that those woodlands are a little more fairytale than your typical forest. Inside you'll find tokens for the Dryad, Green Hag, Spri...

Sneaking in another addition to our Candlekeep Mysteries set at the end of the month. This time it's the underground complex for the Temple of the Burnt Tongue Cult.

Hey folks!

The second asset pack of November contains Industrial Assets 2, a followup to the first set released just under a year ago back in January. Like its predecessor, Industrial Assets 2 aims to be a catch-all theme for any assets to be thought of as well... industrial! This time around, that means an emphasis on alchemy, smithing, tinkering, and a helpful expansion to the scaffolding set int...

Hello token users!

After last month's dragons I figured we'd head to the other end of the spectrum here and explore some tokens from the teensy weensiest members of the monster manual. This set of Intrepid Insects is the second addition to the Bestial Beings lineup, to accompany the Swamp Scavengers released back in June. As you can see from the preview image and title, its filled with bugs! A combination...

Hey folks!

Last month I released Underdark Assets pt.2, focusing on the more natural elements of the "underdark" environment. In that release I expressed an interest in exploring the more "manmade" aspects of the Underdark and today I deliver on that!

Underdark Assets 3 was designed to begin to cover asset types as they belong to the various denizens and civilizations of the Underdark. Obviously those peoples are an incredibly diverse and specific group to cover, but I've done what I could to try and b...

It's been about ~18 months since the release of Statue Assets 3 and so I felt like we were due for an addition to that rather ubiquitous theme. 

Inside the pack you'll find... surprise! Statues. There's a fair bit more in this set than in previous iterations and that's partially from me experimenting with re-envisioning old statues (the Ravenloft faithful among you may notice a few..), partially from me integrating a...
