How did you find me?

Hi everyone!

Wanted to do a very quick poll! With all of the social media platforms melting down, I've expanded my reach to several new ones, and I am curious to see whether any of you found me on any of the up and coming platforms like Lemmy, Blue Sky, and Mastodon. Would really appreciate to see where you found my work!

Water Arena Battle Map with FOURTEEN Phases!

Hi everyone!

We are almost at the end of the month! This is next to last map release and this is a big one with FOURTEEN phases! Every premium variations also has 12-15 phases, and there is a different scenario available to some of the Patrons as well! I think this one falls into the Traps theme as well, since there is an option of a magic barrier that goes up, preventing anyone from coming or going the water area.

Over the next couple of days you will see the encounters of the mo...

Water Elemental Lair Phased Battle Map

Hi everyone!

The next release of the month is here! Since one of the winning themes was Traps, what could be better than a phased map? In this map the players have access to a pool that could potentially be the water elemental habitat. If any one of them get into the pool, or if the elemental feels too threatened, it could break the bottom of the pool, falling through to the lower layer of the cave beneath it, therefore having a better chance at escaping. I took a slightly different app...

Market Square Battle Map

Hi everyone!

This month's theme winners are: Urban, Traps, Vehicles and possibly Magical Forests and Mountains & Caves. And for this release I decided to go urban and give you a market square with little shops, stalls, and spreads. I think I have only one other market square map, and that one is themed for fall / winter, so I feel like this was a really glaring hole in my archive. Hope you like it!

Please let me know what other urban-themed maps you would like to see!

The Torch Carrier - Level-0 Shadowdark Gauntlet

Traveler! In The Torch Carrier, the rumors of a chamber of gold reach the capital, and soon, travelers and adventurers come to Drake's Pass to investigate. People ignore that the ruins in the woods belonged to long-gone sphinxes. And that the magical creatures made sure that no one would ever rob them of their gold. Even if that meant destroying their treasure forever. 

This is an adventure that makes a group of peasants gather and explore an underground tomb in the woods....

Release Schedule + Theme Poll

Hi everyone!

August is here! Can you believe it? We are almost at the end of the summer! Fall is my favorite time of the year though, so I am looking forward to cooler days and the beautiful colors on the trees :).

This poll is going to be limited to Patrons only. I will see what kind of response it gets, and depending on how it goes, all future theme polls might be limited to Patrons only.

Now on to the release schedule. As usual, the release dates are +/- a day of the actu...

Secret Lair Battle Map

Hi everyone!

The third battle map of the month is now here! City Underbelly was one of the winning themes, and I decided to go with something that could be pretty versatile. You could use this as an underground layer, or an above ground city chunk. Could use it as a layer, or place a small market in the large space in the middle. I think you could use this map in a lot of different ways. There are also variations that don't have doors or vegetation, to help with versatility even further...

Shadow Throne Battle Map [30x55]

Hi everyone!

This map is kind of a mix of cosmic horror-ish theme with a shadow realm setting. I think it could work with both. Also, the Patron rewards have the throne room that does not have the floor relief, which is what makes it a bit more Lovecraftian. This was one of the Patron requests, so I figured I'd oblige, and start with a throne room where shadow royalty could reside.

If you have any requests for maps that you need for your games, please feel free to ping me either h...

Reddit's Enshittification and What's Next?

This morning I woke up to an announcement from Bacon Reader that they will be shutting down July 1, 2023. Many other 3rd party apps for Reddit are following suit.

Now what?

Reddit's been my main social media platform, both for TTRPG creation, as well as my casual lurking, for years. Most of you who support me here on Patreon are likely coming from Reddit as well. 

This year has been relentless, starting with the WOTC fi...

Magic Lab Phased Battle Map [30x55]

Hi everyone!

Sooooo I tried to go for a... well, magi-tech vibe with this map... but I think it just came out fantasy-magic-lab type map instead. Yeah. I still think it looks good though.

Here's a quick reminder, just in case you wanted to use one of these phased battle maps on Roll20, and not sure how to: you can just go to the map layer, and put the phased maps, from last phase to first, on top of each other. Then when it is time to get to a new phase, you can s...
