Dragon Enclosure [38x46]

Hi everyone :)

Do you remember the Chained Dragon which had escaped several months ago? Well here's where it escaped from! Of course this is another addition to our Port City Series.

Was the dragon kept as a pet or sideshow for an eccentric nobleman? Was it de...

Coastal Caverns [17x22]

Hi everyone :)

Welcome to a classic setting. This small cave system is located just off the coastline and rumour has it, there may be some treasures held within!

Will your party manage to find their way through and extract the legendary pearl held at the back of the cavern? We're sure that you'll be absolutely fine and won't get eaten by a giant clam!

Enjoy!

Knight's Refuge [17x22]

Hi everyone :)

Welcome, to the Knight's Refuge. The life of a Knight certainly isn't an easy one. These elite warriors spend their lives serving obligations to their lord, providing military service, leading campaigns or guarding locations of particular significance.

With all that time spent uploading the hold of chivalry, it feels only right that they should be allowed a refuge within the very lands they protect. A spot to unwind, do some fishing and forget their duty for just a ...

Velkoth's Lair [29x52]

Hi everyone :)

In the earliest days of elven lore, Velkoth took the form of a hale and handsome homemaker. He reigned as the god of honesty and duty and served as a doting husband to the goddess Meyelle. Elves revered the lovers and followed their guidance. Love one another, enjoy the pleasures of simple comforts, and always share generously in times of bounty. 

One day, a slovenly old man wandered into the realm of the gods. He spoke with each elven deity and ask...

Coral Witch Cottage [33x46]

Hi everyone :)

Today we're heading down to the Coral Reef way down under the sea. The land and creatures have thrived here for centuries. Rumour has it, it's all down to the benevolent witch residing in this little, cosy cottage using her magic for the greater good.

What kind of character might live here in your own stories? Could it be the shell of a giant hermit crab? The lair of a poisonous sea snake? Maybe just a small holiday cottage for a family of fish?

Enjoy!

Haunted Hollow [33x46]

Hi everyone :)

People go missing here. There are one too many tales told around the campfire about adventurers who ventured beyond the boundary of the Haunted Hollow and ne'er returned. Those who somehow find their way home, are often too traumatised to speak of their journey. Even brave folk that have merely had to pass close-by to the entrance tell stories of spine-chilling, bloodcurdling screams wailing into the night. Instantly causing them to flee as quickly as possible in the oppo...

Frozen Tombs [17x25]

Hi everyone :)

These tombs have been lost to civilisation for quite some time. But who do you think might be buried here? The rowing boat seems to be stranded at the island in the middle of the lake, but surely we need to get across there somehow! Maybe your party will be too busy trying to smash their way into each sarcophagus with a plan to loot each one to even notice the huge tomb in the centre of the lake.

We really hope you have some fun luring your players into the extravag...

Dragonlands Fort [25x34]

Hi everyone :)

Today we're journeying into the Dragonlands. This volcanic, craggy, mountainous region is an incredibly harsh climate for those not accustomed to it. Rumour has it, an enormous red dragon rules over this domain and will happily provide a challenge for those adventuring parties who may come looking for one.

We've actually also just started working on a vista to fit alongside a dragonlands theme. We can't wait to show you once it's finished!

Enjoy!

Gate of Angels [33x52]

Hi everyone :)

Happy New Year from all of us at Czepeku! Thank you all for making our website launch and first ever Kickstarter Campaign hugely successful. We have plenty of new ideas to showcase during 2026 and we can't wait to show them to you.

We hope you all had some time to switch off over the holidays. We certainly did our best to relax for a couple of weeks, but now it's time to release some new content!

Here is our Gate of Angels. We hope you get to use this as a cha...

Dwarven Volcano Entrance [29x58]

Hi everyone :)

Hopefully this map fits the title nicely. This is a huge, volcanic, dwarven themed entrance! It could be the entrance to our Dwarven City Centre, perhaps the Throne Hall? Or maybe you have a magical golden ring that needs casting into the fires of a Doom Themed Mountain...

Archon's Catacombs [37x46]

Hi everyone :)

As promised, we're returning to the lower levels of our Archon's Villa release. Deep beneath the Villa, your players will be able to discover this sprawling labyrinth of corridors, shrines, beautiful mosaics and carvings and perhaps a monster or two along the way!

This was created by Nico from our team alongside the Villa and we were super impressed at the amount of detail and...

Black Market Streets [50x33]

Hi everyone :)

Archon's Villa [37x46]

Hi everyone :)

Welcome to the Archon's Villa! This sprawling, luxury mansion will hopefully be an impressive sight for your players to behold. During your visit, you'll be able to expect fine food along with some of the best wine in the region.

You may notice an underground entrance along the cliffside. We've been working on a huge dungeon map which will be set deep below the villa. You can expect to see traps, treasures and perhaps a monster or two. We're hoping to release that b...

Caravan Camp [33x46]

Hi everyone :)

This caravan has been on the road for many many months. This community of like-minded travellers settle wherever they feel most comfortable but have chosen to pick this roadside spot with an incredibly useful well on hand to keep themselves and their animals well supplied with water.

We thought this could work nicely as a trading camp set just outside of a village or town in your story. Artisanal crafters with enchanted weaponry, beautifully woven clothing or even j...

Royal Stables [58x43]

Hey everyone :)

Welcome to our Royal Stables! This is of course part of our Royal Palace series of maps, which we've been creating for the last few years. We actually started with the Royal Throne Room almost 6 years ago!!!

Since then, we've released many different regal maps and it's been very nice to design this Vista to bring it all together.

Enjoy!

Poll: Is your campaign set in a homebrew world?

Thank you to everyone who answered yesterday's poll! We're still looking for opinions on physical products if you have the time to answer it.

For a completely unrelated reason we'd like to ask today about world building, homebrew and campaign settings.

Please complete the statement: 'My campaign is set in...'

The poll is multiple choice in case you're running multiple games at once. Please feel free to elaborate in the comments, it's always helpful and fas...

Poll: Help us to decide physical map themes!

Hey everyone! After focusing on just digital products for 6 years we're finally ready to start making physical versions of our maps.

Our current plan is to split the maps into thick paper/card tiles (they're far too large to print as posters) and have themed boxes containing around 30 battlemaps. There's some mockups below!

We're wondering how many different themes to include and which themes might be popular, so please vote below and let us know what the general theme of your cam...

Travelling Circus [40x58]

Hi everyone :)

Luckily for your party, the Circus has set up just outside of town and there's a show planned for tonight! Does one of your party have what it takes to join the circus and put on the performance of a lifetime?

Will your players instead plan on freeing the poor caged creatures whilst there's a crowd whooping and cheering inside the big top distracting the dastardly ringmaster?

We hope y'all get a chance to use this one in your campaigns!

24 hours left to support Bastions and Guildhalls!

Hi everyone :)

We're down to the final 24 hours of our Kickstarter! Thank you from all of us at Czepeku for making it such a success. We're so so close to hitting our editable rooms stretch goal so if you can help our final push by telling any friends of yours that might be interested, or sharing it in your RPG communities, that would be incredible.

If every single backer convinced 1 more person to back the project we'd even be able to hit our Advanced Procedural Generation stretc...

Trading Port [46x33]

Hi everyone :)

We're returning to our Port City today! This is the trading port which we may follow up with another 'Black Market' area that would lead from the small alleyway heading off to the right hand side of this map.

We're excited to keep showing you more of this city and eventually turn it all into a Vista. We hope you enjoy this one!

Enjoy!
