Graveyard + Mausoleums [35x25] - OC (All Tiers) [Sept Poll] - October Map

Something spooky for spooky season! The October OC map - voted by Patrons.

Graveyard + Mausoleums. Lots of influences on this map - and settled somewhere between them all. First off, I wanted something spooky - somewhere for your players to explore, find some good Halloween-type monsters (undead, skeletons, wraiths, etc).  I also wanted it to at least sort of work with my...

Dragons and space! Lots of new assets.

New assets include:

  • dragon scales and eggs
  • treasure (scattered coins, gems, art)
  • map tables and map tubes
  • stone wall sconces

Stardock.  We're going to space! Onto the carved out asteroid of Stardock, filled with Gith warriors and red dragons.

This is the second release of Level 16 - Maps C & D - covering the upper level of Stardock (the level where the gate from the Crystal Dungeon leads).  I debated trying to do it as a single map as shown in the book but there are 14 locations where the rooms overlap so this was a much better option.  Also the map is confusing to read! - ...

Level 16-1 - DOTMM - Assets (Mapmaker+)

Much custom, not much reusability.

To try and get the transparent crystal effect this map ended up with tons of custom assets - primarily walls and scattered crystals.  All added in as custom assets.  There are 2 sets of raw assets - the "map assets" which are the map specific things, and then just "assets" which are the more generic/reusable ones.  These reusable assets include crystal doors, stuffed wall mounted mind flayer heads, a mind flayer training dummy and some c...

Crystal Labyrinth. Or more specifically, the Crystal Dungeon, with Stardock to come shortly!  Luminous crystal covers every surface, with the Githyanki having torn down walls to create large caverns filled with swirling silvery mists that transport you to the Astral Plane.

This is the first release of Level 16 - Maps A & B - which covers the Crystal Dungeon in it's entirety.  Stardock will be up next for the next 2 releases (as it's big and is actually 2 f...
