Location - Fangs Of The Howling God

️ Looking for amazing STL miniatures? Click HERE!

Enter Giasetti, the broken heartland of the old Gia Empire—a vast region of deserts, canyons, ravines, rivers, and savannahs, where Akata the Endless Hunger once turned scattered gnoll tribes into a conquering force.

When Akata vanished, his profane fragments were scattered across the land, still pulsing with demonic power. In their wake came civil war, divided city-states, and the endless struggle between those who would restore the demon lord and those who would bury his influence forever.

This Location PDF brings Fangs of the Howling God to your D&D 5E table with dangerous travel rules, regional hazards, faction conflict, notable locations, and encounter material shaped by hunger, blood, storm, and ruin.

What you will find inside the PDF:

Location Perils

• Oases — Rare and precious lakes scattered through the rugged desert, surrounded by hardy grass and towering palms, offering shelter, water, and relief from extreme heat.
• Hallucinations — Desert mirages that strike travelers who run out of drinkable water, wasting their strength and worsening the dangers of heat and exhaustion.
• The Breath — A blood-red demonic wind that sweeps across Giasetti without warning, carrying carrion stink, whispers, laughter, lightning, and madness.
• The Hunger — Akata’s lingering influence, spread through blood, air, and his fragments, awakening bloodlust and forcing creatures toward violence and feeding.
• Regional Travel — Guidance for crossing Giasetti by camel, giant hyena, riverine canoe, barge raft, mount, or foot, with route checks, delays, hazards, and terrain-based complications.

Factions in Conflict

• Restorationists — Fanatical followers of Akata who gather his fragments, nurture their power, and seek to raise a second Gia Empire under the Endless Hunger.
• Riverine Guild — Human mechanists who restore and maintain aqueducts, irrigation channels, and waterways, making themselves vital to the city-states of Giasetti.
• Silencers — Gnolls who oppose Akata, contain his fragments, and work to prevent the Hunger from worsening or the demon lord from returning.
• Viccare’s Guard — Gnolls who believe Akata’s return is inevitable, but prepare to siphon his power and force the demon lord into servitude.

Notable Locations

• Bereh Cana — An ancient imperial fortress held by Viccare’s Guard, home to the Pointing Hours archery tournament and experiments with Akata’s fragments.
• Hollowhark — A hidden jokomor village protected by bulwark cactus, built away from gnoll oppression and open only to outsiders who swear secrecy and respect.
• Hunger’s Claw — A colossal claw of Akata embedded in the desert, too powerful to move and contested by every faction that understands its worth.
• Riverbank Oasis — A crystal-blue oasis near the Tunellus River, hidden by illusion and touched by the Hunger of a nearby Akata shaShel Batok — A restored Restorationist metropolis where blood runs beside the roads, bloodwells fill in Akata’s name, and recovered fragments are kept beneath renewed ziggurats.

Giasetti Encounters

• Akata’s Fragment — Confront Silencers overcome by the Hunger while guarding a massive fang-fragment revealed by a sandstorm.
• Brush with Hunger — Cross Akata’s Fall, where the Hunger grows stronger and each will must be tested again and again.
• Hunter Effigies — Stand before ancient bone effigies of Sejarett, the Flickering Death, and answer whether you stand with Akata or against him.
• Interrupting the Pointing Hours — Enter a violent clash between gnolls traveling toward Bereh Cana’s brutal archery tournament.
• Ravaging Breath — Race against the blood-red storm to save Riverine Guild workers trapped in its path.
