The tale of the sea beast has been around for centuries. We have all heard of the ships that have been snapped in half by tentacles, dragged into the depths by an unseen behemoth. It is even worse if you live beneath the waves. The sea elves of Wavalin live their lives in the shadow of the monstrosity. Once, their kingdom was vast, a peaceful realm where all sea elves could prosper and swim free. An age ago, the gigantic beast moved into the area, destroying the outlying villages and underwat...

It is time once again to vote on the theme you want to have crafted for March. I look to you all, my awesome Patrons, to guide me in the right direction. Sticking with the concept of different and unique themes, I have come up with some new choices. Help me figure out what to start on next. It seems like there is a lot of outdoor options, so I will be sure to add in structures where I can, to enhance the playability of the maps. There are a few choices for mega-maps as well. I wanted to do mo...

I changed the chessboard (aligned the colors properly) and altered a few small things on this map. Included with this post are the pieces so the DM can actually play chess with your PCs. Happy Gaming!

Oh yes, Rozard. Rozard the Renown, he was called. He was known for many things, his great magical flare, his infinite intelligence, and most of all, Rozard was known for his riches. He would flaunt his opulent wealth, he wore expensive robes, and he only drank the finest wine. He was a bit pompous, just for the record now, he got a bit kookie in his advanced years too. But none the less, he was an accomplished wizard, and quite clever. He knew how to get the whole world whipped up and rea...

Happy New Year to everyone! Its time once again to choose the next map theme. Going with some new concepts, along with a couple of more modular sets. Help me decide which direction we will go in 2023. Should we branch out more, or keep the sets more generic? Below is the list of themes I am ready to work on next.
Thank You to all the dedicated Patrons that return month after month to vote. Your feedback is my compass, and its so exciting to hear how the maps get used. Lets strive to mak...

In a basin between two volcanic mountains is a precarious swath of hot springs. Dense, caustic fog hangs heavy in the valley, limiting visibility, and choking the air. Depressions of dried volcanic flows mar the land, there are only a few patches of green earth, and they can only support the most meager trees. The sounds of bubbling waters are ever present, emitted from the nearly twenty hot springs. The springs themselves are warm and inviting, but the heavy smell of sulfur keeps most at bay...

As this year comes to a close faster than expected, I look to the next year of map making with excitement. This year's collection featured many more themes than I expected. With about half of the sets being cityscape battlemaps, there was also the Underdark, a Ruined Fortress, a Farmhouse and some Floating Islands.
2023 marks our third year on this awesome gaming journey together. I think it's time for some more eclectic and unique concepts. I hope to set up the new packs more lik...

Floating high above the mountains and rivers of the countryside, sitting atop a dense layer of clouds, is a magnificent set of islands in the sky. The majestic islands orbit one another, ever so slowly, staying in centrifical sync, it is a wonder to behold. Unseen from the land below, the islands are the sanctuary of the birdfolk, who once migrated from their home dimension of elemental air. They bask in the sunlight and pay homage to their living deities. They welcome...

It's hard to believe that it is nearing the end of 2022. This has been a great year for gaming so far, and I look forward to ending the year strong. What theme do we go with next? I'm going to start branching out more, I'm looking for some themes that may not have been done (too much) before. Let me know if you have an idea you'd like to see done in he future. So far I have come up with a few interesting new ideas, and kept some of the older ones.
Keeping with the multiple votes a...

This is a mega map dungeon, 60x80 (6000x8000px / 100px grid) that works with the Fortress or Ruin set. It is broken and aged, with winding halls, and oddly shaped rooms. There are ancient tombs and a well that leads down to oblivion. It should work as a stand alone dungeon that has been overtaken by any subterranean creature or even some undead.
Thank you to all of the Masters out there. I know many of you have been here for quite some time. It is much appreciated. This bonus map is jus...

The Fortress of Ruin is a three piece mega-map set; There may not be as many maps in this set as usual, but all of the scenes twice the size of a normal map at 60x80 [6000x8000px / 100px grid]. The original set comprises a huge valley with multiple roads that lead to the ruined fortress. The fortress itself is nestled at the base of a mountain, it has been raided, the walls broken down in many places, yet it still stands tall with two levels. The alternate version featur...

Hidden deep in the canyons of the dark mountains, past the pond, lay the ruins of a long-forgotten fortress. The site bares the hallmarks of a siege that was not fended off. The perimeter wall is broken through, the building itself has been breached in multiple places. Overgrown, and covered in cobwebs, the aging site is weathered and worn.

Help me choose the next map theme to create. I've stuck with some of the previous themes, but once again there are a few new ones. We still have two choices for the generic cityscape, and some new stand-alone sites. There are some regional theme too (similar to the original few themes in 2021).
Once again, all the Champions, Masters and Legends get to make multiple votes. I think this works well, showing a true spread of what is preferred. It also ensure the percentage of votes on the l...
