Definitely a favourite of our members. We now get to bring you deep in the middle of the ocean to the looming skeletal entrance of the Pirate Lord's Lair! The Brethren Court meet here to decide the fate of their enemies, and their friends whilst drinking copious amounts of plundered rum.
Created using the ships of their enemies and the skulls of their titan foes, this is not a place you should...

Well you've already seen the outside of the Hidden Witch's Hut, we thought we'd take the opportunity with this scene to create an interior!
What could be more witchy than a bubbling cauldron along with chaotic, natural reagents like toads, waxy candles and mysterious jars? Even the stars themselves have an impact on this kind of wild magic!

Hey everyone!
Need a new bow? Or does yours just need re-stringing after plenty of use whilst adventuring? Need a new set of bear traps to lay for your enemies? Whatever your need, this cosy village shop will be able to meet every hunting equipment requirement that you could possibly wish for!
This is just one small part of the Hunting Guild! The village is surrounded by miles and mi...

Initially this might seem like an incredibly peaceful scene for a Green Dragon Lair but we very much envision this as the calm before the storm!
Let your players feel right at home walking along this trickling stream, and then hit them with the Green Dragon stomping its way into their path!

Feel that? The warmth of the lava rivers, the smell of the forge and the soothing sound of hammers hitting anvils over and over again. Oh it feels good to be back in the Dwarven City Centre. No doubt there is ale to be consumed tonight!

This is a scene of our recent Sewer Tunnels map.
Sneak through the city unseen through the delightful passageways of the sewers! You could even find yourself a job down here with the Sewer Watch.

This is a scene of one of our very earliest maps. I think the 5th we made? It's the Mountaintop Altar!

The Lair of the Many Eyed God was our first ever BBEG style battlemap, so it stands to reason that it's also our first BBEG scene! Hopefully you all get a chance during your campaigns to spring a giant Beholder God on your players!!

Hi everyone :)
This scene has been highly requested since we first started Czepeku Scenes! Finally we think we've done it justice. This is the Riverwood Toll Castle!
We like to think this would make a nice location for a one-shot. Certainly a nice stop off point to pick up some new bounties for your party to hunt down.

Here's another cosy scene for your collection! The Village Blacksmith!
Blacksmiths are always handy to have around, so we hope your party has a lot of uses for this location. Sometimes you need to find a master smith to forge you an epic sword, sometimes you just need to sit and feed the swans. Both are possible here.
We plan on releasing some Village Interior Scenes too in the coming months so keep your eyes peeled for those!

It's a chilly one today! For any of you running an arctic themed campaign, we've made as many simple variations as we could think of. We've included fishing holes, a river running through the ice, coves, an ocean view and of course plenty of massacre scenes for good measure! Great for those Rime of the Frostmaiden games. :)

We thought this would make for a pleasant, peaceful scene. Perhaps a calm before the storm?

After weeks of trekking through the jungle, you break through the undergrowth and you see it: the fabled Temple of the Couatl! Perhaps untold treasures await you, or maybe... it's only doom that awaits you!

Hi everyone!
We hope you've all managed to slow down a bit over the festive period. We've certainly tried to do the same! For this scene we revisited the idea for this map slightly to give it a much more ominous feeling.
A lonely mansion perched atop a cliff. It could just have been a normal mansion once-upon-a-time but now the Vampires have taken over. Not wanting to make themselves obvious to local peasants they've left the mansion as it was all that time ago.
Enjoy!
Hey everyone!
This will be a recognisable scene for most Czepeku supporters since the original map was one of our first ever releases. It's also the basis for our logo too!
This should fit nicely into any campaign. What party doesn't enjoy a bridge crossing challenge? We made the angle feel steep to try and give the scene a feeling of additional risk near that trecherous drop!

We've come a long way since the little Apple Barn you discovered back in Ages of the Vale Part 1! The resilient villagers decided to turn their ramshackle barn/tavern hybrid into a proper inn, adding a real interior and a 2nd storey to the building.

Welcome to the Mountain Logging Camp! We think that this would be a nice introduction to the battlemap as you struggle your way to the top of the mountain after a long, arduous ascent.

Hi everyone!
Here's our next release, the Elven City Centre! For our scenes, we tend to think about a few options when we're deciding which parts of the map to focus in on:
1. What would be most useful for game masters to set the scene?
2. What features would look cool and aren't as visible from the top-down map view?
