D&D Dead & Blighted Trees - Cursed Forest Terrain

Transform your gaming table into a cursed forest, a misty swamp, or a desolate wasteland! This premium pack includes a varied set of dead, withered, and corrupted trees, ideal for adding tactical cover, verticality, and a dense dark fantasy atmosphere to your role-playing maps

The set consists of several unique pieces with integrated scenic bases (IMG_8036.jpg):

1. The Hollow Tree: An ancient trunk, split and completely hollow inside, perfect for hiding small treasures, traps, or providing full cover
2. The Twisted Trees: Models with bare branches that curve unnaturally, exposed roots clinging to rocks, and trunks with very pronounced bark textures. One of them even includes a small, ancient tombstone half-buried at its base (IMG_8039.jpg)
3. The Living Bush / Evil Treant: A tree with a terrifying and menacing face sculpted directly into the trunk, ideal for surprising your players with a camouflaged enemy

• In-game Use: Perfect for use as difficult terrain, light cover against ranged attacks, or as the dangerous Blights (living bushes) and Awakened Trees from monster manuals

📊 Suggested Stats and Values for D&D 5e

If your players venture into this forest and nature comes alive to attack them, here are quick values for the tree with a face (IMG_8038.jpg) as an Awakened Blighted Tree (CR 2):

• Armor Class (AC): 13 (Natural Armor)
• Hit Points (HP): 45 (7d10 + 7)
• Speed: 20 feet
• Vulnerabilities: Fire
• Resistances: Bludgeoning and Piercing (bludgeoning and piercing damage from non-magical weapons)
• Action - Whipping Branches: Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 10 feet. Damage: 1d10 + 3 bludgeoning damage, and the target is Grappled if it is a Medium or smaller creature (DC 13 to escape)

All trees in this set are designed with an approximate height of 70 mm, an ideal size to serve as visual obstacles and medium cover on your boards. However, they are fully scalable in your slicing software according to your preferences or needs; you can increase their size if you want to create colossal ancient trees that dominate the map, or reduce them to use as small dry bushes

🛠️ Recommended Print Details

• Supports: Due to the organic nature of the model, with branches extending vertically upwards (IMG_8036.jpg), many of these trees can be printed without supports (Support-Free) or with minimal use of them on the tips of the most inclined branches. It is recommended to use tree supports only if your printer struggles with pronounced overhangs
• Layer Height: Printing at 0.16mm or 0.20mm is ideal for filament (PLA). As they are tree barks, the natural layer lines of FDM printing help to simulate wood texture, drastically reducing print time without losing quality
• Painting Suggestion: A basic brown filament already gives great results on the table (IMG_8036.jpg). To bring them to life, apply a dark brown base coat, a black wash to sink the bark textures, and a drybrush in beige or light gray tones on the tips of the branches to simulate dry and dead wood. Adding some green moss or scorched grass at the roots of the base will increase realism!
