Dungeon A Day - Furiaes Castle - Day 22

In a leaf-fallen forest, under a full moon, a dark shadow lies over a single cottage. Looking up, you can just make out the outline of a ghost-like castle, somehow floating in the autumn skies.


Beneath it, candle-like wisps flit about, summoning all souls who can hear their call, to the "doorway" through which all may pass to the floating keep.


This is the place to which children from the nearby village have been kidnapped, reports claim. But seeing Furiaes Castle in person is more unsettling than you'd hoped.

Room Description (Read the Following Text to Your Players)

Emerging from the first floor of Furiaes Castle, you are surprised to see... nothing - nothing out of the usual. Small lanterns provide pools of gloomy light, and pathways open in multiple directions. You hear chanting from the larger hallway, though the others are silent.


Room Challenges

  • Chanting: a successful Intelligence roll (Fate Roll Difficulty matches Avg. Party Level, -1) reveals that the chanting is coming from a room to the right of the large hallway (the one that leads to the top of this dungeon room). It's almost as if it's some kind of religious - or cultist - ceremony. Otherwise, the room is eerily... safe, and uneventful. For now...

Dear reader, I hope you enjoyed this article. Tabletop gaming has been a passion of mine since I was 6 years old. I've played just about every game from Dungeons and Dragons to video games like Final Fantasy. These games have inspired me, made me laugh, made me cry, and brought me endless hours of enjoyment.


I started Eternity TTRPG - and the indie tabletop game that goes along with it (Eternity Shop) - to share my love of gaming with others. I believe that in our technology-driven age, tabletop games help bring a sense of magic and community back into our world.

Transcribed content from our recent YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JR5wS-kJOzQ&ab_channel=EternityTTRPG Transcription In the sun-starved realm of Druskenvald, the moon crooks just enough to twist folk tales into nightmares... Hey adventurers! Today on Eternity TTRPG, we’re diving back into The Crooked Moon, a brand-new folk-horror campaign for D&D 5e that drenches your sessions in superstition, creepy rituals, and six terrifying new playable monsters. Today, I wanted to share with you some of the cool and exclusive playable monster races that you can expect to see in the campaign world, and even experience for your own character: Curseborn – Human‑wolf hybrids with thick fur, claws, and a lupine posture. They’re your werewolves, basically. Their unarmed attacks allow you to curse your targets, giving them disadvantage on rolls, and causing them to emit wisps of fog. Graveborn – Corpse‑like humanoids with snouts and bone‑devouring jaws. Your classic ghoul-like undead. With their “Infused Drakkonite” ability, they can ignore resistances when attacking, and deal necrotic damage. Relicborn – Skeleton‑like beings with glowing pattern‑filled bones and rocking hairstyles. These are more like your lich-undead, kind of. But really, more like rock-n-roll lich, or something. They actually get bonuses to performance skills, and can take “long rests” by enjoying revelry – so partying. Silkborn – Arachnid humanoids with carapace skin, extra limbs and 250–800-year lifespans. Of all the races, this one is probably my least favorite. Though I know a few people who will love these. They can basically do spider stuff like climb walls, and create webs. Nice. There’s also a couple other playable monster races I’ve already covered in my previous video (which you should check out), like the: Harvestborn – which are scarecrow-like constructs embodying agricultural cycles with healing and “culling” powers. Plagueborn – Rat-folk immune to poison, who spread disease magically. If you aren’t familiar yet, the Crooked Moon campaign book also includes: 15 horror‑themed subclasses (like Wicker Druids and Pestilent Haze Monks), 13 lineages for your character’s roleplaying background, new spells, 85 monsters (in total), 11 boss fights, 156 curses, and the Fateweaving system which I covered in a recent video. I like Crooked Moon because it brings a fresh, horror‑focused twist to 5e—bigger than Curse of Strahd even, or Drakkenheim. Any time of the year I can experience Halloween, I’m basically in. Even if you haven’t seen my previous videos on it, the Crooked Moon is a 632-page, two‑part campaign launched just a couple weeks ago, digitally on D&D Beyond. Print copies are coming this fall. As I’ve explored this topic more myself, I’ve also learned more about how it began. Crooken Moon was adapted from Edge of Midnight. Edge of Midnight is the actual-play series by Legends of Avantris that laid the foundation for The Crooked Moon. It’s a dark, folk‑horror D&D campaign that aired on Twitch and YouTube starting in September 2021, set in the same eerie realm of Druskenvald. The team behind Avantris used this homebrewed saga as the prototype for The Crooked Moon. Their player characters and NPC allies from Edge of Midnight—many of whom take on twisted, villainous forms—were woven into the book’s lore and boss encounters. By bridging the actual‑play world with a full 600‑page customizable campaign, The Crooked Moon lets players experience that same haunting atmosphere—while also giving DMs the tools to craft new tales or replay the story arc live audiences already love. If you’re craving eerie tension, unforgettable characters, and creeping dread in your next campaign—The Crooked Moon delivers. It’s available now on D&D Beyond, with physical books coming this Fall. That’s it for today! Hit like if folk-horror is your jam, drop a comment with which monster races you'd play, and subscribe for more D&D scoop!
