A Breeze Amongst The Thickets: A TNU Hexcrawl
Campaign
This page is a work in progress and will be updated repeatedly to serve
as the central repository of links to writing of and about my hexcrawl
campaign.
The
Nightmares Underneath by Johnstone Metzger can be found here. There
is also a free version up on dtrpg. You could reasonably run this
campaign in any other system too, but when I write statblocks and
reference specific rules mechanisms, this is the game I am doing so for
unless otherwise specified.
I extensively use the monster stat from the TNU bestiary on Johnstone Metzger’s
Patreon, and from Only
Monsters Here.
PRIMARY GAME CONTENT
Overworld
Hex Map And Keys — The Big One, itself a table of contents for
individual hex entries.

Hex Map And Keys — The Gardens Below, in all their splendor.

earth.
