The Astral Express - Free Adventure Pack Collaboration!
Added 2020-12-18 18:00:03 +0000 UTCEvery year, Klaus the Kindhearted travels across the planes visiting all the good little boys and girls and delivering to them magical treats and gifts. He does this on his magical train, The Astral Express. This year, however, while skirting the abyss he inadvertently picked up a nefarious hitchhiker. A creature born of malice and hunger and hate: The Gingerdead Man. Summoned by Klaus as a last-ditch effort to save his train and the gift-giving season, will your party be able to safely navigate the Astral Express and thwart the Gingerdead Man’s evil plots?
Hey everyone!
In honour of the holiday season, we have gathered together for another free collaboration, this time centered around a magically powered train soaring through the sky!
Along with maps of a wide variety of train cars to navigate through, this collaboration includes a written adventure, new monsters, minis, magic items, and musical tracks to bring it all together in one cohesive package! You can view a list of everything contained in the pack below as well as links to each of the creators responsible for contributing to this effort. Most creators have also created their own patron-only content, so we highly encourage that you check out their Patreons below.
Included in this mega collaboration is:
- 4 atmospheric musical tracks
- 8 yuletide magic items
- 17 monsters complete with stats
- 25 monster tokens
- 16 different 17 x 11 maps, available as gridded and gridless, as well as printable PDFs.
- 2 backdrops to place your maps onto
Grab all of these different files from the zips in the attachments at the bottom of this post.

Thanks for the feedback! I wasnt directly involved in the writing of the PDF, but I'll do some digging around with the writers and some of the other artist and see if I can find you some answers!
2021-01-04 07:27:11 +0000 UTCHi there! This is an amazing PDF/adventure with some of the best maps I've seen! Unfortunately it's let down by a few mistakes or omissions. It could have done with another proofread. Please let me know if I am missing something. Feedback below: 1) Corrupted snowmen are mentioned in Area 8, and bolded like a statblock is given, but there is not one provided 2) There is a statblock for a Hot Cocoa Monster but it's not mentioned. Vice versa for a hot cocoa ooze. Are these the same monster? Terminology should be clarified because when trying to set this up I thought a monster was/is missing. 3) There is no mention of which map represents each area. I had to figure this out and hope I got it right. Second, there are no sizes given for each map, so again I had to figure this out and guess as to what worked. 4) There are 3 snowmen tokens but only 2 statblocks given. Am I missing one? I know it can't be easy making a collabration of this scale, but could whomever put together the adventure please take a look? Many thanks and happy christmas/holidays!
