What's Inside

This issue of SIDEQUEST includes: 

  • The Dusk Empire: In this entry of our Istar Gazetteer we're visiting the Dusk Empire, one of the most powerful regions in the Jewel Cities of Talavaar. This article covers the empire's history, as well as some of it's key figures and locations.
  • Imperial Overseers: These shadowy agents of the Dusk Empire are respected and feared in equal measure. This article contains background lore for the overseers, advice on using them in your campaigns, and stats. 
  • Mulch, Circle of the Sewer Druid: Mulch is our Iconic goblin druid who you'll have seen in previous artworks. This article delves into his backstory and provides stats and a quick adventure hook for use in your games. 
  • Tangle Twerps: These mischievous fey beings live in the extra planar spaces that you'd typically find in the likes of bags of holding, and love nothing more than causing chaos by messing with the things placed into those spaces. But with enough luck and the proper offerings they can be turned into helpful allies and familiars.

All the mechanical content in this issue is compatible with the 2014 version of Dungeons and Dragons Fifth Edition. 

Download includes a 14-page bookmarked PDF and tokens to use Mulch, the Imperial Overseer, and the Tangle Twerps in VTT play.
