Domains of Dread and Their Lords

Domains of Dread

Craft personalized terror with 16 domains of dread.

The Domains of Dread teem with creatures born of nightmare. From restless undead and cunning fiends to twisted aberrations unique to the Mists, these horrors lurk in every shadow.

In these haunted realms, adventurers might oppose villainous Darklords, seek escape from the Mists, or witness their deepest nightmares come to life.

Darklords

Challenge your party with 17 fully statted Darklords.

Every domain is ruled by a Darklord, a villain whose depravity drew the attention of the Dark Powers and led to their imprisonment in the Domains of Dread. Darklords shape the domains they rule, but they are prisoners themselves, eternally trapped in realms that torment them with twisted reflections of their own desires and failures.

Denizens of the Mists

Populate your campaign with 60+ new creatures.

The Domains of Dread teem with creatures born of nightmare. From restless undead and cunning fiends to twisted aberrations unique to the Mists, these horrors lurk in every shadow.

Whether your adventurers face a haunted manor or a fog-choked forest, the denizens of Ravenloft ensure that danger is never far away.
