D&D 5e Out of the Abyss

AFTERWORD

ln the Rage of Demons stcry, demon lords invade the
Underdark and spread madness throughout the subter—
ranean realm. (As if the Unclerdark wasn't dangerous
enough already!)The Underdark is home to some of the
D&D games most icnnit: monsters. as well as cultures
both alien and wondrous.

To bring the Underdark to life, Richard Whittcrs and
his concept artists created amazing imagery tied to
various Underdark race uorlna waymzirkers. illithid
“brain urns" and domiciles. duergar architecture, drow
costuming, and much, much more. Their concept art
was featured at “story bible" that we gave lo our licensed
partners. That story bible served as inspiration for
miniatures, digital projects, and print products like the
adventure you hold in your hands.

This appendix contains a sampling of the Concept an

we commissioned for the Rage of Demons story. We
hope that this art further inspires you to run Out ofthe
Abyss or create your own Underdark encounters.
