Welcome to Spawns of the Mindrender, a massive, 600-page D&D 2014 and 2024 5e-compatible dark fantasy adventure and campaign setting for levels 11-15 with player options set in the perilous mountain realm of Vordan. This story-driven module blends survival, exploration, and tactical warfare in a hazardous sandbox environment, weaving a complex plot with multiple branching threads that intricately connect and gradually unveil the grand narrative of a realm unraveling into madness.
Spawns of the Mindrender introduces fresh mechanics, including special rules to simulate the chaos of a battlefield. Players will navigate treacherous peaks, ancient giant ruins, and shifting clan alliances as they uncover the secrets of the Farrealm and face a reality-warping threat. Whether seeking to unite a fractured nation, claim ancient artifacts, or save the world from total psychic collapse, Spawns of the Mindrender delivers an engaging experience for adventurers of all kinds.
Live campaign launches on May 5th at 12:00 PM (noon) ET.
