... and much more!
A shadow has crept forth from the castle
Bitterfeld is a sleepy hamlet nestled in the mid-eastern reaches of Gertonia. Blessed with fertile soils and the nearby forest ominously named "Ghostbane," the village had all it ever needed to thrive. Yet, a shadow has crept forth from Castle Crowfall, ever since the warlord known as the "Beast of Thelarion" returned from his campaign in the Westmark. Days grew grim, and the sky took on an unnatural hue. With the strange weather came monsters and creatures that lurk in the twilight. Bitterfeld, having never needed a wall, found its farmers armed with naught but simple tools for defense. Thus, it was no challenge for the cunning necromancer to subdue the hamlet's few families. The undead that followed him now toil for him, instilling fear, while the crops stand ripe yet unharvested for the first time. What dark task do the families of Bitterfeld labor over? What does the necromancer compel them to do? And will there be a band of adventurers to restore peace to this secluded village?
ENTER EVERY HOUSE, VISIT EVERY AREA
Bitterfeld is a quaint village ripe for exploration, echoing the haunting vibes of Resident Evil 4, and bursting with potential for riveting tales. It could serve as a waypoint to a grander quest or the setting for a monster hunt in the woods. Perhaps, in classic fashion, a werewolf lurks among the families, awaiting discovery. Or, you could employ the free Beneos Token available with this release on Patreon, placing it as the boss for your level 4-6 party right in the church. What ideas do you have for Bitterfeld? Share in the comments and inspire me and all readers and supporters =)

THE NECROMANCER
Necromancers are magic users who pursued the arcane arts beyond the restrictions that nature and mortality place upon less curious souls. Death is a strong metaphysical concept and those tapping into the domain of biological and metaphysical death quickly find themselves swelling with power, as they carry life into the realms of death to reanimate bodies or manipulate souls, or invite death into the realms of the living, turning flesh to dust and withering body and soul. This power quickly corrupts and many societies fear, shun or hunt those who passed the threshold and invited death into their life.

Health Warning for Users with Epilepsy
When using animated Beneos Battlemaps, it's important to be aware of potential health risks, especially for individuals who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy. Some of our maps contain elements that could potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. For instance, lightning effects from storm animations on certain maps simulate strobe-like flashes which could act as a trigger. If you or anyone in your gaming group has a history of epilepsy or seizures, please consult a medical professional before using these animated maps. Additionally, users should take breaks regularly while playing, play in a well-lit room, and avoid playing if they are feeling fatigued or have had little sleep, as this can increase the risk of a seizure.

In the spirit of fostering a safe and inclusive gaming environment, we self-rate our content and suggest it is suitable for users aged 12 and up.
