The Strange Garden of Lamaril

Lamaril was a Vornheim noble obsessed with gardens and strange plants. He or she crafted a wonderful roof garden that grow over multiple city towers. Lamaril is dead, but his or her garden is still hanging over Vornheim.

The garden is a series of roofs gardens, windowed rooms and balconies linked together by bridges and stairs. Helped by the Witches or maybe by the Wyverns he weaved a charm that protect the garden from the cold of Vornheim.

The gardeners are wood golems created by Lamaril. They are busy tending the garden and will usually ignore intruders if they don't interfere with their work and don't harm the garden or steal from it.

To explore the garden improvise the map and roll a d20 to determine the locations that the group encounters.
Each result of the d20 feature 3 entries. The first one is the main entry, the other ones are secondary entries that you can use before the main entry if you prefer to place the main entry later. Dont be afraid to often roll the d20 when you improvise the map. Oh and it ok to let the players find new path to explore behind walls of vegetation (like secret doors, but easier to find).

When you roll a number that you already rolled on the d20 simply use a secondary entry for the that number (they work as random encounters). If you already used the 3 entries and you don't want to repeat them, simply use gardeners or some intruders/visitors. If the group make noise or disturb the garden, roll to see if this attract a bunch of gardeners (like a chance of random encounter).

The garden feature some save or die situations.

Hedgehog Clan

Piercers could be rolled up cloakers.

Somebody must have figured this, but piercers could be in fact a cloaker variant that roll up itself into a tight cone to fall down on preys.

VARIANT A:
The head and tail of the cloaker go inside the cone and the cloaker fix itself on the ceiling with it wing's claws and it tail.

VARIANT B:
The head of the cloaker go on the outside of the cone to form the classic stalactite with eyes figure.

Both variants can use it cloak's wings to fly back in the air to make a new diving attack or to cling back on the ceiling. But I guess that their flight must be very clumsy.

Now maybe you can have real piercers and cloaker that mimic piercers. I mean cloaker are already mimicking cloaks so why not mimic piercers?

Note that the cloakers shape don't need to be pie-shaped, I used the pac-man shape just to link with paper cones (I imagine their "wings" are a little longer).

Rural encounters table.

When the group travel in the countryside you can roll on this table to bring life to the farms or villages they pass through.

To dress a rural scene roll a d20 to read a row of entries or roll four d20 to mix the results. 

There is 1 chance on a d6 that something suspicious is going on. Like people hiding some criminal, unmoral, shameful or forbidden activities. If so, there is also 1 chance on a d6 that it involve something supernatural.

Crow spirit or demon

I tried to drawn a mecha and I ended up with a crow spirit or demon.

Order of the Destroying Angel (fungus + paladins)

The order was found in the honor of a great paladin that received the blessing of the Destroying Angel's spores.

"The Destroying Angel: Spores on the wind make contact physical and psychic with the dying and vengeful. Destroying Angel will bond with the willing and give regeneration, weird slabby mushroom plate, and make them count as a fungus for mind effecting effects. In exchange after the mission is complete it will ask to go to somewhere high where it can convert the bearer into a large fruiting structure and disperse its spores."

When you join the order you receive a holy fungus armor grown from the fruiting remains of the holy founding father and a little psychomycosis sister or brother that will guide you in your holy avenging.

The order only accept orphans and youth people who have a dying little brother or sister. The order maintain a orphanage and a fungus plantation where they grown magical herbs that the paladins smoke to prevent the unwelcome secondary effects of breathing so many spores. They are specialist of healing herbs and drugs and they maintain a healing clinic and library. Orphans that get too sick while working in the fungus plantations are saved by receiving the holy psychomycosis megaspore sacrament. The orphans who survive the plantations and grow older become paladins.

But all of this is gone, the order have been accused of many crimes and the paladins have been declared felons and have been chased away from their church and holy plantations. 

Their founding father is trap under the church's ruins and the surviving paladins have become wandering knights guided only by their cryptic psychomycosis pages, who seem to constantly lead them into dungeons.

Some lore about the lanterns have been discovered on Aeons & Augauries.
