Black Dragon Nest by Novaminis

Somewhere beneath the acid-scorched marshes, in a hollow the maps dare not name, three eggs lie waiting — and their mother is never far away.

This is the Black Dragon Nest, variation 01 from Novaminis — a scatter terrain piece that transforms any dragon lair encounter from a simple boss fight into something your players will genuinely dread. Three large, leathery eggs sit clustered together in a rough nest of stone and bone debris, their shells bearing that distinctive pearlescent sheen of chromatic dragon young. The sculpt captures real weight and texture: the smooth curve of each egg contrasted against the jagged, weathered rock of the nest base gives the piece a naturalistic presence that reads clearly across the table.

Whether you're staging a Black Dragon's lair in the Mere of Dead Men, building out a swamp dungeon encounter for your campaign, or simply dressing a display shelf with a piece of genuine menace, this nest does the job with character. It works equally well as a combat objective — protect the eggs, destroy the eggs, or desperately avoid the dragon who laid them — or as a lore prop to telegraph the threat before the beast even appears.

Perfect for adventurers who:

• Run Black Dragon lair encounters and want terrain that earns its place on the table
• Need a clear visual objective or interactive prop for a swamp or dungeon session
• Collect dragon-themed terrain and scatter pieces for display or diorama use
• Want to signal imminent dragon danger before the beast makes its entrance

Encounter Hook:
The ranger spots the nest first — three eggs, each the size of a human torso, still warm to the touch. The party has perhaps thirty seconds to decide: destroy them and face a black dragon's full and permanent fury, leave them and know what is coming for this region in six months' time, or take one and learn what a dragon egg is worth to the right — or very wrong — buyer.

Scaled to 32mm. Available with or without a plain black base (base supplied unattached, easily fixed with glue). Supplied unpainted and ready for priming — paint as shown or develop your own colour scheme for the clutch. Some minor support marks may be present as part of the printing process and can be cleaned up with ease.
