SHADOW REALM MOUNTAINS
🕑 Added 2024-01-17 23:02:04 +0000 UTC
Adventurers find treasures here or meet an early death
The Shadow Realm is a parallel plane of existence. The Eternal Darkness has altered life in this place. What thrives here is not necessarily evil, but to those accustomed to the sun, every form of life that can exist in this hostile environment seems harsh and cruel. Many myths surround this place. Adventurers find treasures here or meet an early death. Cultures lay their dead to rest in this place, and those who wish to remain hidden seek refuge in this darkness. Whatever one seeks here, it is a dangerous, relentless place full of pitfalls and horrors.
Modular Approach
This mountain pass is intentionally kept very modular. It could be used in a campaign as cursed land, or to represent the dark side of the Fey Wild. The Monster Lair could be the goal of a quest, and the Ruined Gate is the perfect spot for an ambush, or a long rest. The mountains are intentionally designed as a linear path, allowing your players to traverse from front to back to complete their quest, or to arrive at their destination after a strenuous day of adventuring.

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.
Age Rating Information
Our content at Beneos Battlemaps and Sceneries has not been rated by any public rating board. However, we strive to create content that refrains from glorifying violence and brutality. While our fantasy adventure maps may contain traces of violence or depict grotesque creatures, these elements are not the focal point of our creations. 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. We recommend that parents review the maps themselves or adhere to our general age recommendation to determine if the content is appropriate for their children. Our commitment is to provide immersive and engaging fantasy experiences without compromising on the well-being and safety of our users.

Hi Beneos. I tried your Patreon to see your work and I what I see. I want to try it out at my game sessions! I just can't seem to find this one in the Google Drive folder? (Tier 1, as I am not using a VTT) Am I missing something? Thanks in advance - and thank you for the great content!

So eerily intriguing! I can't wait to run an adventure in this shadow realm setting! I'm fondly reminded of some awesome extra planar locations in Skyrim.
