Hey everyone,

This week's release was developed out of the "shadowfell creations" prompt. We decided to go with a twist on a popular folk tale and made our own version of the Pied Piper.

Patrons can grab the PDF at this link.

"Unbeknownst to Eshes or the mob, the night of the full moon had turned the abandoned tower into a crossing with the Plane of Shadow. Eshes was left dead in the gloom, while the anger of his spirit and the dark energies of the bordering plane were enough to reanimate him as a violent force intent on exacting his revenge. Eshes took this revenge upon the people and alderman of Hollytook, but when he returned to the Plane of Shadow, the minstrel remained unsatiated and full of fury. It is said that he often leaves the Plane of Shadow and visits other villages on the Material Plane, playing his magical pipes to lure children to their deaths, so that all who resemble those who wronged him might suffer as he did."
