Development Update

Greetings travelers and visitors of Castle Dornstein. My name is Daniel and I’m here to provide you with some news of the castle, the local town, and rumors currently surfacing in the lands.

Castle Dornstein is in development. Her foundation is being re-bricked, her carpets being swept, and her relics and tomes are being dusted in order to prepare for Master Hemlock’s arrival. While construction efforts are underway, we don’t have a timeline for when it will be ready for you to join us. We are predicting the latter half of 2026, but we are still estimating the remaining work.

We greatly appreciate you following along with the development of Castle Dornstein, and we are excited for you to get to see the castle in all of it's glory. Starting next month in August, we will be publicly posting more on our social media channels, and we'd love if you followed us there to see more week-to-week updates.
