Another Campaign Finished! Recreating these old school and very focused campaigns is fun, fast, and, satisfying.. we will continue this style with the next Campaign, The Village of Hommlet.
All Maps for Against the Cult of the Reptile God are completed and include the Foundry ready files.
And just like that we are done with another campaign! This was nice to keep the pack compact with 5x maps and many floors.
Next week I'll release the Finished Map Pack post including the Foundry Files. Oh, and I'll announce the next campaign :)
The walls of the dungeon's lower level naturally wind into the dirt. The trickling noise of water aggravates the ears and the smell is somehow worse.
The dampness is inescapable, as...

We are cruising through this campaign. This dungeon was pretty large at 56x80 so expect the lower level to the dungeon next week.
After a wearisome trek through a seemingly endless sea of thrush, the adventurers will see a low barrier of mud and wood. This dike keeps the swamp waters from flowing into the dungeon's gaping hole.
The descending muddy wooden stairs are slippery. The stairway descen...

Our first temple with several various floors for any need.
The granite wall around the temple is 20' high. The gates are strong and wooden. Carved into them with precise craftsmanship is an ornate carving of the chaotic good goddess Merikka, portrayed as a beautiful young woman. The temple building itself is made of solid granite blocks.
I want to thank everyone for liking this content and motivating me to continue this work. It's the support and engagement that keeps this project progressing each week :)
As a thank you and Holiday Gift I am gifting all of the Maps files for The Lost Mine of Phandelver. I will take this post down at the beginning of the new year.

Another inn or tavern to aid you on your adventures. Always a nice utility map to have at the ready. I'm enjoying these multiple floored maps that give a nice variety within the same location. Although, they do take more time and attention :)
The Inn of the Slumbering Serpent establishment is not fancy, but offers a homey atmosphere that most travelers find more pleasant than the cheerless Golden Grai...

The Golden Grain Inn is our first stop in the village of Orlane. It serves as your typical tavern.. definitely nothing wrong with it.. No, the bar keep isn't avoiding your glance.. No the ale doesn't taste off.. Is it usually this quiet in here?
The Golden Grain Inn is a large two storied wooden building. It is decorated with carvings of sheaves of wheat along the eaves of the roof. The inn was whitew...

This one was a delight to combine a dense castle ruin with the wooded hills.

Tor - a large piece or area of rock that sticks up from a hill, or the hill itself. Not a word I use everyday but it makes for a great tactical map.

Over half way through this campaign. Thinking we will have a poll for which campaign is next.
As you crest a low ridge, you spy the crumbling ruin of an old watchtower standing amid the rugged hills. The place is so old that the walls are only mounds of rubble enclosing a courtyard of sorts, adjacent to the broken stump of an old tower. A colorful tent is in the middle of the courtyard, but no ...

Deeper into the woods to Agatha the banshee's lair we go!
Winding further into the woods you see a home of sorts. It is blended with the forest and sheltered within the dome of woven branches. It is sparsely furnished with chests, shelves, a table, and reclined couch, all of it elven craft.
Cruising through this campaign! Nice to break the outdoor pace with some dungeon crawling.
At the bottom of the stone staircase stands an unlocked door with a cellar beyond. The door opens onto a five-foot-wide landing fifteen feet above a large cellar, with stone steps descending to the floor in two short flights. A large stone cistern occupies the western part of the room, whose walls are lin...

It feels good to get back to map making. There is something relaxing about creating art.
The entrance to the cave complex was under a large hill, and had a shallow stream flowing out of it. It had four main rooms and several smaller trails linking them. There was also two large pools of water, which could be released to cause a flood. A crudely made bridge linked the room at the end of the rive...

Back to business with Goblin Ambush.
We now have Foundry ready files for all previous maps (Walls, portals, lights, and occasionally music). Big shout out to my friend TJ who helped make this happen. All previous and future maps will include the Foundry Ready Files with a month delay after the original post.

2024-09-29 12:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostIt's been a minute! After finishing the Red Hand of Doom, I enjoyed a much needed break. Life was getting a little too busy between starting a new job and finishing some house projects. All good things that are important to my family. I've since finished most of the house projects and am settled into my new job allowing me to find the time and get back to Canvas Quest.
It's clear to me now that creating maps for campaigns will be the star of this P...

It feels equally triumphant and bittersweet to finish this project. The Red Hand of Doom still is my favorite campaign to run and will always hold a special place in my heart.
It's through our attempts at something and the many failures in between that we forge a better person. Journey before destination.
Canvas Quest will continue with Fantasy Feast: The Hobbit&...

Mountains whose sharp horns seemed to pierce the realm of the stars with the towers of Mist entombing all but the mountain peaks.

So Canvas finally got around to learning Foundry and preparing the files.
All Red Hand of Doom Maps (excluding Marauder Attack and Save the Walls) now have a Prepared Foundry File in the Map Adventurer tier!
I am not a Foundry expert and look forward to improving these prepared files in future maps. Constructive feedback is appreciated :)

So you found a gorgeous map and want to use it on Roll20? Here's how.
Greetings adventurers:
This map holds a special place in my TTRPG heart. This is where my first PC died and the party failed. One lay slain in a duel with general Kharn, another taken capture, and the third fled taking his only living family to fight another day.
This map can be a fun boss fight or a scattered and tactical slew.

Wyrmlord Kharn is nearby. He has gathered several of his most powerful remaining minions and i...
