Shadow Vine Blights blend into shattered walls and dead trees until a boundary is crossed. Then the vines tighten, the air dims, and the ruin itself seems to move. Use them as swarmy minions, patient lair guards, or as neutral “keepers” who punish theft and noise. Works in any fantasy system; for 28–32 mm tables by default with quick rescale to 54/75 mm (table included). Common tabletop scales like 28 mm/32 mm are supported for easy compatibility.


At the table (DM cheatsheet)

  • Roles: minion swarm • elite sentinel • environmental hazard (grapples/restrain, line-of-sight blockers).

  • Biome: ruined keeps, drowned forests, shadowed passes.

  • Run ideas:

    1. The Silent Yard — the party must cross a courtyard without “disturbance points” (noise/impact); each point awakens a blight.

    2. The Bargain — blights will let the party pass if an item “taken from the ruin” is returned (or replaced with something of equal weight).

    3. The Moving Wall — walls of dormant vines advance 5 ft/round, herding PCs toward an altar unless they cut or burn paths.

  • Hooks: a guide went missing after “stealing a brick”; a rival warband uses blights as living tripwires; a druid asks you to parley with the guardians.
