River Rapids

Hi again! Welcome to our latest map, the River Rapids. This map features a vibrant color scheme, some large rock faces fit for a campsite, and a collection of boulders that might serve as a bridge.

I wanted to explore some more high contrast line work for this map, which you can see at play in the leaves of the trees, the gaps in the rocks faces, and in the rapids. I was really laying down the ink (at least compared to usual) and had a lot of fun with it. I'd like to explore it more in the future.

The color scheme is also something a little beyond my habits. I really squeezed as much contrast as I could out of the fiery autumn leaves and the glacial blue river. I think I've crossed some line and made this into a fey-wild map in doing so, but hey, people were requesting those!

I intended this map to serve as a campsite, but it might also be a challenging river crossing (something is always lurking in the waters when it comes time to cross a river) and/or skill challenge. For a low level party I would just wedge a sword in one of the hard to reach boulders and dare my players to go get it. The dice will always make a fun time of that!

There are a few ideas, but I'd love to hear what you think up. Please leave a comment!

Damn. I really like those ones!

Yes, Feywild maps are very important! I love the color of the water, especially, but the contrast between the red-orange of the foliage and the green-blue of the river is really nice on its own, and the rocks manage to be neither blue-grey nor yellow-grey and so don't interfere with that. It's great! I love it! I want to crouch on that big rock and stick my hand in the water XD
