Poll Results for October 2022

The poll results are in, I hope everyone enjoyed being able to cast multiple votes. Thank you all for taking the time to make your choices. It was an awesome turn out, with clear cut winner. Our next theme is going to be a Ruined Fortress. This will be a huge mega-map of a military castle layout, complete with falling towers, broken barracks walls,  fractured ramparts, and a ruined great house. The area will be aged and overgrown with vines and trees. An accompanying rui...

Farmhouse - September 2022

A large farmstead found miles outside the city has stood here for generations. At first sight, it is a picturesque tranquil country scene. The corn fields sprawling across the horizon sway in the breeze, the sounds of animals and birds create a subtle background melody. The front porch of the farmhouse is inviting, offering shade and a place to take in the views. The lazy road surrounding the property seems well worn but rarely is there a wagon on route. Everything about the farm seems well a...

Choose the Theme for October 2022

I have some new themes for everyone to choose from, for October. I kept with some generic cityscapes, including a second Arcane District (I feel like I can add a lot more to this district, but just need extra time to do it.) I also branched out a bit, adding in a new theme akin to my older sets, Babylonian. And I usually don't do entire holiday themed sets, but for those that like the Halloween aesthetic, a themed set could be used for an undead scenario.

I also have it set so multiple ...

Arcane District - August 2022

The Arcane District is a part of the city that every active adventurer visits from time to time. You can peruse an assortment of curio shops that sell any and everything, for the right price. From small tents with limited selections to massive magic emporiums. Whether you're looking to procure arcane items, find an exotic pet, learn a new instrument, or enlist in an academy yourself, the Arcane District can provide. The streets themselves are filled with interesting inha...

Larloch's Vault - Patreon Extra

This is the three floor tower of Larloch. The first two floors are on the Material Plane, the third floor is in an extradimensional space (thus its larger). This map was originally commissioned by @Xhaidan and has been a exclusive on Discord for some time. By request, here is the repost for all to enjoy. Long live D&D.

Choose the Map Theme for August 2022

Vote for the theme of maps that you want to see done in the coming month. I thoroughly enjoyed making the UnderDark Caves and Dungeons, but its time for something new. Perhaps back to the Cityscape, or do we try something totally different? Below is a mixed list of map themes I'm ready to do next. Please let me know what you want you prefer next. I'm curious to see what the consensus is. 

Thank-you to all the Amazing Patrons that vote. I know a lot of you have been here making your...

UnderDark Caves & Dungeons - July 2022

Every good adventurer knows that the UnderDark is a dangerous place, filled with twisting caves, traps and pitfalls, deadly dungeons, massive caverns that house ominous structures. The creatures that lurk in the darkness are more akin to monsters, savage, brutal and unforgiving. So why would any surface dweller risk their lives in such a horrid setting, why for the riches and glory of course. After all, you never know what you will find in the UnderDark, or what will find you.

City Docks - June 2022

The City Docks are a setting ripe with action, the harbor is filled with ships, the fish market is thriving, and the Port Authority are on patrol. You can shop for fresh sea food, bait and tackle, rare shells, or you can try angling off the pier. If you are feeling more adventurous, you can join a sailing crew, or if you have the coin you can captain your own vessel. Be sure to register it at the Port Authority Main Office. If you are feeling rambunctious, you can sample some of the exotic go...

It's time for another early vote again; Help me choose the theme for the July map set. Below is a list of concepts I'm ready to make next. Most of the choices are city-scape themes that should work with the previous city maps. We should have maps to cover any urban scene by the end of the year. As usual, there are a few new choices as well.

City Penitentiary & Ruined Prison - May 2022

The City Penitentiary, a place no adventurer wants to wind up. It is a setting ready for new encounters and action. There are scuffles in the yard, negotiations with the guards, helpful visitations, escape attempts, and unfair judgements. Maybe you Player Characters' aren't convicts, perhaps your PCs are the guards that must keep wily inmates in order. It seems every large, lawfully functioning settlement has at least one penitentiary. I hope this one works well in your home ...
