Character Options That Channel the Macabre

In The Crooked Moon, there are no heroes. They are survivors, seekers, and the cursed.

15 Subclasses Overflowing with Folklore

The Crooked Moon's 15 subclasses draw on grim tales and old-world dread, offering character options pulled from the pages of forgotten folktales. Whether you're wielding alchemical fire, summoning spectral hounds, or the result of an abominable experiment, these paths let you embrace the uncanny.

Barbarians who follow the Path of the Experiment rage with unstable alchemical power, their bodies warped by mutagenic fury. College of Whistles Bards call forth ghostly companions with eerie melodies, while Harvest Domain Clerics channel divine power through the turning of seasons—blessing the living and blighting the wicked.

Druids can embody primal forest forces in the Circle of the Old Ways or animate wicker effigies in the Circle of Wicker. The Barrow Guard Fighter fights like a revenant, mastering tactics born of the grave. Monks who become dedicated Warriors of the Pestilent Haze spread disease with each disciplined strike.

Rogues known as Sinners manipulate fate with jinxes, while Grim Harbinger Rangers stalk prey alongside ghostly hounds. Crimson Sorcerers burn blood for power, and Warlocks can strike pacts with the chaotic Great Fool or the wild Horned King. Wizards become either Occultists, wielding forbidden knowledge, or Philosophers, shaping magic through alchemy.

13 Species of Druskenvald

Druskenvald is a land shaped as much by the creatures who haunt it as by the curses that linger in its soil. Each of the 13 species in The Crooked Moon brings a folkloric flavor that ties into the region's chilling legacy—whether born of crypt, cavern, or scarecrow's post.

The ashborn, devil-tailed and full of mischief, dart through the shadows of Chernabos. Their short lives blaze with charm, illusion, and sudden vanishing acts—perfect for tricksters who strike before vanishing into smoke. Meanwhile, azureborn glide through the skies, guided by starlight and fate. Their ability to bless allies with foreknowledge and take flight in bursts makes them ideal for seers and spellcasters.

From the swamps of Zulrogg, the hulking bogborn endure with tusked grit and mossy patience. Their regenerative power and powerful build make them stalwart front-line protectors. Curseborn master the beast within, bringing deadly claws and a supernatural sixth sense—ideal for players who want to walk the razor's edge between control and chaos.

Then there are the strange: harvestborn, creatures made of wood, metal, straw, and other implements that are reborn after their life cycle has come to an end. Relicborn revel in life's final act, dancing on the edge of undeath with traits that reward performance and death-defying resilience.

Fateweaving, Curses, and More

The Crooked Moon introduces new mechanics to deepen dread at your table:

• Fateweaving: Tangle NPC connections to the players' characters with threads of destiny, further immersing them in the provided The Crooked Moon adventure.
• Curses: These dastardly afflictions take many forms, from narrative complications to chaotic conundrums.
• Dark Bargains: Enter into pacts with unfathomable powers to exchange boons for penalties.

The Crooked Moon Campaign Setting

Welcome to Druskenvald.

In this eerie setting, superstition is a force of nature, and the stories you hear about ancient curses and deadly foes are a very real matter of life and death. The tales you'll tell using The Crooked Moon echo with forgotten fables and haunted stories. Whether you're leading a village in revolt against a witch-queen or trading secrets with a moonlit spirit, you'll find stories that evoke an atmosphere of eeriness or terror.

The Crooked Moon offers a full campaign setting alongside monsters, mechanics, magic items, and a campaign full of terrifying delights for characters level 1 to 13.

A Campaign Setting Rooted in Fear

Unlike high-fantasy realms filled with gods and kings, Druskenvald is shaped by fear. Fear of the woods. Fear of curses. Fear of what happens when the sun doesn't rise.

Each region of Druskenvald invites you to tell a different kind of horror story. Perhaps the characters must navigate a silent town where no one speaks of what happened to the children. Maybe they must unearth the truth of an ancestral curse, hidden behind generations of lies. Or perhaps they'll be offered a deal from a wolf in sheep's clothing.

The campaign that guides your party through Druskenvald offers ready-to-play adventures with haunting locations, twisted NPCs, and choices that ripple through the land like a death knell.
