Free Animated Map - The Netherstones

Added 2025-07-14 18:00:08 +0000 UTC

Hey Adventurers!

I'm excited to share a brand new animated map with you — The Netherstones!

Designed to tie in with our recent map The Last Light, this rather dangerous looking place to what lies in store for your players once they step through the Vortex in search of the missing residents.

Flying through the portal, the party slams down hard onto the cracked surface of the central stone. The air is thin and cold, filled with static. Strange gravity tugs at their bones as violet mist coils beneath the floating islands.
There’s barely a heartbeat to take in the alien sky before shrieking shapes descend from above — a pair of Gloomstalkers, their wings like torn shadow, dive from the murk. Their goal is clear: knock the intruders from the stone and into the void below.
But the void is not what it seems.
Should a player be cast off, gravity twists — and instead of plummeting into oblivion, they are flung sideways or upward, crashing onto a random floating stone. They take [Level]d6 bludgeoning damage from the hard landing (credit to DM Dan on Discord for this evil mechanic).
If the party survives the ambush and regroups, an observant adventurer might spot faint footprints in the dust. They lead to the very edge of the rock — and simply stop.
Whoever took the lighthouse family jumped. Will your players be brave — or reckless — enough to follow?
