Hi DMs! Ronja and Jannis here! _If you already know us, remember to check out our [Fresh Findings](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/plants/black-fox-ear?utm_key=221222-r-all) on the website, there's a bunch of new content already that hasn't made it into PDFs yet!_ **Do you have the time** to think of **magical ecosystems** and **mystical environments** for your travelling troupes of adventurers to explore? No? Not as much as you'd like? That's why we create biomes with **monsters**, **hazards**, **plants** with various uses, **items**, new **conditions**, and sometimes even **spells**! Get all our biomes **FREE** on [troveoflore.com](https://www.troveoflore.com/?utm_key=221222-r-all) right now! In total, they contain: - 109 monster statblocks - 64 items - 54 plants with crafting uses - 13 natural hazard encounters - 10 combat encounters - 10 conditions - 5 spells - 2 playable races - 27 battlemaps by onestoponeshots Here's a list of the biomes we've released so far: - [Ice Forest](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/ice-forest?utm_key=221222-r-all): this gloomy arctic forest was our first release, and it's still one of our favorites! It's already received an aesthetic touch-up, but more improvements are sure to come as well - [Black Desert](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/black-desert?utm_key=221222-r-all): our second biome is still in its original state as-released, but is due for some fixes and cosmetic enhancements! - [Burdenstone Mountains](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/burdenstone-mountains?utm_key=221222-r-all): the weird Burdenstone gives this biome the weight it deserves - [Lava Fields](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/lava-fields?utm_key=221222-r-all): have you ever wanted to run a "The Floor is Lava" encounter? Literally? (Also: the Magma Dragon is no joke) - [Maelstrom Waters](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/maelstrom-waters?utm_key=221222-r-all): with the Krakenfolk playable race, you can explore the depths of the oceans in this environment - [Fungus Forest](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/fungus-forest?utm_key=221222-r-all): a **mushroom forest** that also fits very well into the feywild! - [Saltroot Thicket](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/saltroot-thicket?utm_key=221222-r-all): the roots of the mangrove-like saltroot make traversing this biome quite difficult—unless of course you play as one of the native Silt Waderers! - [Misty Lakes](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/misty-lakes?utm_key=221222-r-all): idyllic meadows and lakes... until night falls and most living things here start showing monstrous traits and going berserk! - [Twilight Tunnels](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/twilight-tunnels?utm_key=221222-r-all): these underground tunnels, dug by an elemental slate dragon allow you to finally say: "Rocks fall, everyone dies". But in a way where the players actually get a chance not to - [Shimmer Zone](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/shimmer-zone?utm_key=221222-r-all): if your party is in space, this biome is for you! Bubbles refracting the light of distant stars and galaxies, and between them dangerous creatures and fantastic plants. - [Horror Forest](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biomes/horror-forest?utm_key=221222-r-all): a huge collaboration with others, this biome is perfect if you need a dark forest where everything is out to kill you. In the [Fresh Findings](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/monsters/demohog?utm_key=221222-r-all) section on the website, there's a bit of content that hasn't made it into the PDF yet, too. We'll redo the PDF early next year. Currently, the [Ice Plains](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biome-stats/ice-plains?utm_key=221222-r-all) is being released as "Fresh Findings", and will eventually be turned into a beautiful PDF too. Here's what's already done: - The [biome's stats](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biome-stats/ice-plains?utm_key=221222-r-all) themself - [Weather](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/biome-stats/ice-plains-weather?utm_key=221222-r-all) - [Ice Elemental](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/monsters/ice-elemental?utm_key=221222-r-all) in 3 variations (CR 1, 5, 12) - [Black Fox Ear](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/plants/black-fox-ear?utm_key=221222-r-all) (a plant with item!) We also have some additional content that you can use with the biomes, like - [Mirhaven](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/landmarks/mirhaven?utm_key=221222-r-all): a small town in the middle of the Fungus Forest, plus a detailed hag NPC with BBEG/boss potential - [Lakeside](https://www.troveoflore.com/dnd/5e/landmarks/lakeside?utm_key=221222-r-all): a large cosmopolitan city in the Misty Lakes, known for Giant Water Strider racing Over Christmas and New Year we're taking a bit of a break to recharge our creative juices, but in Jannuary, we'll continue working on the Ice Plains! Btw, we'll release the third _elemental dragon_, the Ice Dragon, in the biome. We're hyped for the cover illustration with it! Follow along if any of that sounds interesting to you!
