This Week We’re Playing ‘Yokai Tales,’ ‘Motes of the Divine,’ And More 5e Adventures

Roots of the Forgotten

Explore the rotting heart of an ancient forest where gods sleep beneath the roots and memory can betray you as time unravels. Discover haunting beauty and twisted folklore while a sense of dread follows your every move. Can your party navigate the danger and keep their sanity while uncovering its mysteries?

Roots of the Forgotten is a grim adventure for 5e, designed for levels 5-8, and can be used as a one-shot or a campaign arc anchor. If you’ve been searching for something that will challenge your players and offer a dark world to dive into, this is it.

Venturia

Venturia, the Skyborne City, floats far above the world, cradled in sunlight and suspended by ancient magic. Built upon platforms of carved stone and powered by radiant aether crystals, this airborne metropolis glows with elegance, discipline, and divine purpose.

Life here is ruled by strict laws, spiritual devotion, and a shared reverence for order and tradition. But beneath its beauty lies a harsh truth. Those who fail are exiled to the world below. Within the glow of lanterns and the shadow of dragons, mysteries smolder—vanished isles, forbidden rites, and the delicate balance that holds the city aloft.

Venturia offers adventure to scholars, soldiers, seekers of power and prophecy in a city above the sky. But tread lightly and take care to ensure that you rise instead of fall.

Yokai Tales

Looking for a new world to explore? Go deep into the lands of Yoaki – from the Heiwa Monastery nestled among mountain peaks to the frozen wasteland of the Kiken Mountain Range, and into the seedy underbelly of the region’s capital known as the Bluudkeep. This book will bring wonder, thrills, and adventures in a new, mysterious land filled with unique locations to your games.

This Book Includes:

• 5 stat blocks for new creatures
• A new race – the cat-like makineko with 3 subraces 
• 5 encounters to thrill your players
• 6 Spells
• 5 New Items
• Lore and Rumors
• Feats and Deficiencies

The Thistlewood Veil

Thistlewood was once a realm filled with awe, but it’s begun to rot. Its beauty is now filled with warped paths and whispered lies. Those who visit have their memories stolen. The tree that guards the border between the Feywild and the mortal realm is dying, and an ancient dark pact is failing, posing danger to both lands.

Players will be caught in the middle of this struggle and will have to unravel mysteries in order to save Thistlewood. This is a great choice if your party needs an adventure that will level up their characters.

Motes of the Divine

Battle Dr. Francis N. Stein’s biomantic creatures in this gothic-horror mini-campaign that includes 48 new beasties. Its scenarios can be played at three different levels: 3 to 7, 8 to 12, or 13 to 17.

This standalone adventure supplement blends the narrative storytelling of classic adventures with the hunt format of Heliana’s Guide to Monster Hunting. Your players must track the monsters to their lairs, pick up clues about their foes’ strengths and weaknesses, and then face them in an epic, multi-wave boss battle.
