12 Days of Meepmas (2019)

thingiverse

This set includes everything you need to run the "Death in the Fimbulpeaks" adventure module for our free Polymodular Fantasy Roleplaying rules. Our Meepleverse Kickstarter was a huge success, and to celebrate the season, we're doing a special set that we'll release over the next 12 days. Keep an eye on this space and check in each day for new pieces. (I'll keep a "WIP" tag on this thing until all the parts are included.) *On the first day of Meepmas...* We've got ice/snow tiles, with a spooky cave entrance. A dark and foreboding entrance to a mysterious cave beckons brave adventurers into its icy domain. The snow-covered slope rises steeply above, hiding secrets within its frozen depths. *On the second day of Meepmas...* We've got our first player character meeple. A party of adventurers approaches the cave, their bodies weary from the treacherous climb. Their grim determination drives them forward, despite the perils that lie ahead. First to reach the cavern's mouth is Odrik Dayn, a hardened warrior driven by his own dark past. *On the third day of Meepmas...* We've got our second player character meeple. Next to the cave stands Baphira, a thrice-cursed knight of the Holy Order of The High Exalt. Her quest for redemption is fraught with danger, as she fights to prove that her faith holds greater power over the sulfurous taint of her demonic lineage. *On the fourth day of Meepmas...* We've got our third player character meeple. Third up the frozen slope is Xanruk, an orc-blooded terror from the southern underworld. Betrayed by an employer and left for dead, he beheld a vision of a radiant goddess guiding his bloodied hand toward glory and the greater good. *On the fifth day of Meepmas...* We've got our fourth and final player character meeple. Last to the cave is Arlette, half-mortal princess of the Fey Courts. Left in the mortal realms when her folk retreated into the Otherworld for fear of human iron, she searches for a way home. Having found a band of outcasts with whom she feels a sense of kinship, she watches over these misfits, protecting them with powerful spells of illusion. *On the sixth day of Meepmas...* We've got icy terrain tiles. The party navigates through treacherous ice caverns, their footprints echoing off the frozen walls. The air is crisp and cold, filled with the scent of snow and the distant howl of wind. *On the seventh day of Meepmas...* We've got icicle zombies! As they wind through the icy tunnels, the party is ambushed by the frozen dead. The corpses of adventurers whose quest ended in this fell place strike out at those who might succeed where they once failed. *On the eighth day of Meepmas...* We've got ice pillars and passageway tiles. The undead horrors defeated, the party soon finds the entrance to a vast cavern dotted with pillars of jagged ice. A great shaft above them opens to the mountaintop and the soft glow of starlight. *On the ninth day of Meepmas...* We've got a mysterious idol trapped in ice! Across the vaulted cavern, trapped in a prison of ice stands an idol to Xitulca, long forgotten goddess of time and death. The party approaches cautiously, sensing that this ancient relic holds secrets beyond their wildest dreams. *On the tenth day of Meepmas...* We've got the frost dragon, guardian of the ice caves! As they approach the curious idol, a great blast of wind fills the cavern. The party scatters, taking cover behind pillars of ice as an enormous white dragon, guardian of this accursed place, swoops down from the shaft leading skyward. *On the eleventh day of Meepmas...* We've got a box to keep all this stuff that doubles as a terrain piece! Fighting for their lives, the party fled into the mountaintops above, and the accursed frost dragon, Rimetongue, gave chase. The outcome is far from certain in this desperate battle. If you missed the Kickstarter, don't worry- there are plenty of freebies in this collection, plus we'll be releasing the sets to our storefront soon. For those of you thinking about supporting us on Patreon, our patrons get special access to our entire back catalog, including the Meepleverse stuff (not to mention license options to sell printed versions of our designs). Happy holidays!
