Rain, snow, the Blood Moon and blood rain: how often they roll and what they bring.

Each run rolls a sky for each of the two open depths, the Cursed Forest and the Hollow Ruins. It comes from the run's seed, so a party always shares it. The Crypt and the Catacombs stay dry.

WeatherChance (per open depth)What it brings
ClearMost runsMoon, stars and the violet river.
RainAbout 1 run in 5Rain and splashes, wet ground and puddles, lightning and thunder.
SnowAbout 1 run in 10Drifting flakes that settle on the ground and the trees.
Blood MoonAbout 1 run in 12A huge red moon lighting the forest crimson.
Blood rainAbout 1 run in 22The Blood Moon bleeds: red rain, red fog, red lightning.
  • Count to the thunder: lightning strikes every 9 to 24 seconds in a storm; a short gap means it was close.
  • Dark, not blind: bad weather is tested to never be darker than a clear night.
  • Low-end PCs: on the Potato preset the sky still changes, without the particles.
