Nightfell – The Witches’ Path is a 2014 - 5e sourcebook dedicated to Witchcraft, drawing inspiration from Italian and European folklore, and enriched with brand-new legends surrounding arcane traditions, ancient covens, and the obscure secrets of the cult of Agabbadora. A perfect companion for your dark-themed campaigns and sessions.

Inside this volume, you will find:

Inspired by the folkloric legend of the wandering witch, this new playable class was born to embody those unfortunate souls who, kidnapped as children, are branded by the witch covens of Iùrmen to be twisted, or enslaved. Witchlings are marked by a fate both dark and timeless. They are walkers between worlds, attuned to the entropic forces that shape reality, and capable of peering beyond the Veil to glimpse the memories of the Hags of ages past.

They are neither Warlocks, nor Druids, nor Sorcerers. They are not devout, nor chosen. They are receivers and interpreters of the mystic disorder that slithers beneath the skin of Iùrmen’s corrupted world. They endure only because they have learned to speak with the energies that lend their voice to witchcraft.

From a mechanical standpoint, the Witchling is built upon a framework that could be described as warlock-esque, yet it is reshaped entirely to serve its own unique identity. Druidic influences blend with subtle sorcerous elements, without ever overwriting their source inspirations, thus forming a spellcasting class with distinct features that faithfully reflect key aspects of witchcraft in the world of Nightfell.

At the core of its gameplay lies the channeling of Entropic Spirits, paired with the uncovering of Ancient Secrets. These forces intertwine with its subclasses, known as Seals: spiritual and narrative archetypes that shape the Witchling’s spells, powers, and the nature of their bound Spirits. There will be five Seals in total, each embodying a different lineage of the witches of Iùrmen, the original creators of these forbidden marks.

Set in the desolate world of Iùrmen during the Lunar Age, Nightfell unfolds across lands abandoned to darkness, where the sun no longer shines and ancient peoples have vanished. The last divine forces, the Primes, still linger, untouched by the corruption seeping from the realm of Ènferun.

The Moon, Mirithlen, now governs the skies, her divine light is both a blessing and a curse. Her ever-shifting phases shape the world, empowering rituals, awakening horrors, and altering fate itself.

This volume expands the world of Nightfell introducing Asvizert, an uncharted mysterious region of Iùrmen.

Frozen in time and shrouded in eternal mist, Asvizert is a land of towering glaciers, spectral silence, and forgotten powers. No known people had ever crossed its borders, until now. After more than a century of perpetual night, the first contact between the Secret Folk and the inhabitants of the Known Lands has finally occurred.

Here, primordial mysticism has endured untouched by the known cults of Iùrmen. Ancient rites, whispered from soul to soul, remain untainted. The Fàyekin, a resilient people born of frost and isolation, now face a revelation that will shake their very foundations: the truth of the Last Sun, and of what followed.

Explore new territories, uncover long-buried secrets, encounter terrifying native creatures, and awaken a unique playable ancestry shaped by snow, shadow, and spirit. The mists of Asvizert have parted, but not without a price.
