Brazenthrone - The Gnomestown District - Everyone's Edition

Added 2020-04-27 22:16:51 +0000 UTC

Brazenthrone returns! This is the first of a number of Brazenthrone maps I'll be drawing in a row. Gnomestown is pretty much what it says on the label: a small corner of the city where a lot of the gnomish residents live. Most of these would be deep gnomes, with whom the dwarves of Brazenthrone have a tight relationship.

The "Tavern in the Sky" at (5) is a good place to hang out if you're three feet tall and everyone else in the city has a liver like a bank vault and casually drinks an amount of alcohol that would kill your entire family. If the name seems confusing, here's the explanation from the DM notes:

The name of this tavern makes plenty of sense to deep gnomes, but almost none to anyone else. The gnomes‘ perspective is this: most deep gnome communities are miles below ground. While Brazenthrone is under a mountain, the city and it’s entrance are fairly high up in the mountains and the city is, in fact, at a higher elevation than most surface cities. Thus, it is-- according to the deep gnomes-- “in the sky.” To be clear, the sky is in no way visible from this location.

Next up is the Old Mines, east of the Noble Quarter. They're long abandoned and blocked off from the city, which makes them sort of a "wilderness." But, you know, maybe somebody forgot something in there and maybe your party needs to crawl on in and go get it. It'll be fine. It can't be that bad, can it? I mean, of course it can, but... look, just get in the hole.

Before that, I'll post another batch of tokens I made for my Roll20 game. Those should be up tomorrow. Until then!
