This includes a coversheet/legal page, table of contents/credits page, five full page color pictures, and a full-page ad for Encounters in Barovia, another Ravenloft product by the same author, Christian Zeuch. Let’s see how much life this product has in it.Įncounters with the Dark Powers is a PDF product with 20 pages. In that vein, let’s look at Encounters with the Dark Powers, a Ravenloft supplement available on the Dungeon Masters Guild. In my case, I’ve used the devils that are allowed to bargain with the souls in line for judgement in the Fugue Plane in the Forgotten Realms in this capacity.

This one caught my attention because I have, in different campaigns, utilized bargains in the afterlife as an alternative to keep a character in a game. I know, for example, Legendary Games started off by providing supplementary campaign products to Pathfinder adventure paths, but the campaign supplemental product is well represented on the Dungeon Masters Guild. That’s not to say this category didn’t exist previous to 5e.

Why? Well, I encourage you to check out the trailer below, but it appears by making the plot super serious and deadpan, the movie is going to be more hilarious than if they had turned it into a comedy.There is a category of RPG product that I think has really flourished in the Dungeons & Dragons 5e era. Based on its trailer, the movie is playing the plot very serious, though I don't think the creator actually took the tract seriously. According to wikipedia, Dark Dungeons has gotten the license to use it from Chick. It appears to be a movie with a plot expanded straight from the strip. What is this relevant now? Well, it looks like there is a movie version coming out of Dark Dungeons. You can find a copy of Dark Dungeons in its entirety here. Instead, know it was intended to be serious, it makes it particularly hilarious for anyone who has actually played D&D.

For many, if we had not known Dark Dungeons was serious, we would have thought it humor. An assault on Dungeons and Dragons as being evil and affecting the minds of youth, it has been parodied many times among RPG communities, various fandoms, and geek culture at large. In 1984, in the height of the Satanic Panic, Chick produced the tract entitled, 'Dark Dungeons'.
