The Folklore Herbal Compendium (5E Supplement)

For centuries, common folk held elders in high esteem, viewing them as the sole source of knowledge. Yet, those who truly understood the secret laws of nature—the herbalists and alchemists—were often labeled as witches or warlocks, feared for their alleged magical powers. Every witch kept her own secret book, carefully recording a detailed herb list, unique plant properties, and potion recipes.

We have endeavored to recreate exactly that: an authentic Witch's Book. Inside, you will find authentic folklore, fascinating legends, and the circumstances in which these mystical plants were discovered.

Take your herbalism to the next level. Designed to be used seamlessly with your 5e herbalism kit, this book provides robust 5E mechanics for gathering, preparing, and brewing.
