Hardcover Books Released on DriveThruRPG

Posted on by

Hardcover versions of the adventure To Catch A Unicorn have been released on DriveThruRPG! There is both the regular version of the adventure and the Special Edition. The Special Edition features additional “secret chapters” with witch’s brews, potions and weird magic items, and more… The regular adventure version is also available in softcover.

Hardcover versions of To Catch A Unicorn – the regular and the Special Edition

This is my first printed book available on DriveThruRPG, so it’s a real pleasure to finally be able to present it. All versions come in premium colour and with the best paper quality – I’m really happy with how they turned out! 🙂 It’s taken a lot of coffee and tea to reach this stage! 😉

The module, including a full-blown enchanted forest to adventure in, is fully presented here:

Regular edition:

To Catch A Unicorn

Special Edition:

Free One-Shot Adventure Coming Soon!

Here a little sneak peek at an adventure coming soon to this website.

The Lost Convent is a dark mystery adventure suitable for a party of any level and size!

The party comes upon a lone convent in the wilderness. The characters must learn its dark secret and survive the night.

This D&D 5E “one-shot” for levels 1-20 takes place in the same campaign world as To Catch A Unicorn, but is easy to use as a side trek in most campaigns.

It will soon be made available, free, on the website.

More soon…! 🙂

The Kickstarter ends on a high!

The pledge period for To Catch A Unicorn has now come to a close. 

And wow! This has been quite the journey! All Stretch Goals for the adventure were unlocked! Really amazing! 

This means there should be some wonderful illustrations, super-duper buildings and combat maps, an overall map of the forest thick with cool details, and loads of extra adventure material for all! 

I’m immensely thankful for the huge support for the campaign!

A little Kickstarter update

Posted on by

Having now passed the pledge-period mid-point of the Kickstarter for To Catch A Unicorn, it’s a good moment to make a little update here.

First of all, wow! The interest and support has been really amazing and far beyond what I could have expected when launching this my first Kickstarter. Thank you so much to all the amazing backers who have joined in already! The Kickstarter was funded in just over 2 hours and since then we have unlocked a number of Stretch Goals that will definitely make the product so much better!

So I wanted to mention one of the great developments here. Thanks to the great support from all backers, the battle & building maps of the key adventure sites will be something quite special. They will be made by the amazing VENATUS MAPS. They produce top-notch RPG colour maps. This will make it possible to have both beautifully rendered and also really functional site maps. These should also be usable as VTT maps. The maps will even show you what these exciting locations look like from the outside. You have in this post an example of a Venatus map from their website, just to show you what I mean.

I’m quite excited over this development, which will really make the adventure module even more appealing visually – and even easier to use.

And there is more, much more to come …! To Catch A Unicorn is coming together in a really great way!

IT’S COMING: D&D 5E KICKSTARTER!

To Catch A Unicorn: Epic D&D 5E adventure in enchanted forest!

The Night Owl is excited to announce this Kickstarter going live soon!

To Catch A Unicorn is an epic fantasy adventure for D&D (5th edition). In an ancient forest, the magic of elven lords from eons past still pounds in overgrown ruins and flows through plants and soil. But an evil hag is gathering a motley crew of monsters to her. The only hope of stopping the growing darkness is to bring back the legendary Protector: the Forest Lord unicorn. But will your adventuring party survive, find a way to bring the unicorn back, and save the forest?

Welcome to the enchanted forest of Zinamistra!

The adventurers must enter these woods, explore them, find answers and survive. They will meet many denizens of this mystical realm, from quirky fey to the deadly servants of the night hag Natraxa Mafleur. The party must find out what has happened to the unicorn and bring it back for an epic final showdown against the witch and her servants!

The adventure is suitable for 4-6 characters of level 4-5. It comes with a set of appendices full of new spells, monsters, magic items, herbs, inventive rules and more!

This supplement aims to take the “enchanted forest” to the next level. The idea is to go much further than just including encounters with forest or fey creatures. The product will include new and simple (I promise!) “game systems” to bring the enchanted forest to life. You can use these for creating your own magical forests too! More details will be presented soon as the Kickstarter goes live.

The pre-launch page is now up on Kickstarter (see link below). There you can click “Notify me on launch” not to miss out.

First pledgers will get the early-bird super discount!

New website!

Posted on by

This is the new website of Anders “the Night Owl” Jordahl. Here you can find strong and highly distilled homebrew for D&D 5E! 😉

All main homebrew content can be downloaded from DMs Guild:

https://www.dmsguild.com/product/234401/Dragons-Now

The idea with the website is to provide a way of engagement and a focal point for all this homebrew creation, including smaller and free content that can be published more often.

I will try to make more regular updates and new content also between the release of major adventures or supplements.

So feel free to roam around, leave a comment and subscribe for future content and news!

Happy gaming!
