Icon of Ashen Offerings

Added 2023-06-30 11:03:46 +0000 UTC

Be aware! I have just gotten back from a trip I took with my students internationally and our flight back ran into complications resulting in me returning home later than I'd planned. Consequently there is going to be a torrent of releases coming out today to make up for the relative quiet on the stream the last couple of weeks. Thank you for your patience!

Hello all!

The Icon of Ashen Offerings features a combo of some of my two favorite tropes in scenes/encounters: big 'ol statue and a very high site for it. Cliffside stairs can be seen towards the top of the map descending downwards towards the very distant vista seen beyond.

Meanwhile the towering form of this massive, crouching idol is flanked by a pair of intricate braziers made from (unscorched?) woven roots. Ashes fill the braziers and are scattered about the grounds, bringing into question the nature of offerings here and their purpose.

The Icon of Ashen Offerings comes in its default appearance (as previewed above), in an "unfurnished" variant without statue + braizers (for a more open-ended mountaintop scene), as well as in a nighttime/moonlight variant. All of those come with or without a grid overlay as well as in VTT-compressed versions for far lighter file sizes.
