Hey all! Welcome back to another map pack. This time around we have another awesome suggested by the community, a ruined manor and tavern in the city. For all purposes, I have also included clean versions of these maps too! All of these maps are 140ppi resolution.

I just wanted to let you know that my newest project, The Tome of Maps: City Edition has just launched! I am particularly excited about this one as it features one of my favourite aspects of mapmaking - interiors...and there's a lot of them.
Hi all!
Unfortunately, I've had a bit of trouble getting this upcoming release done on time (I took a short break earlier on this month), due to a CERTAIN Kickstarter project taking much longer than expected to sort and with it launching in...about 15 hours from now, it's a bit much.
However, I am making a perfect and also ruined v...

Hey all! Welcome back to another map pack - this time it is inspired by a wonderful little game called Echoes of Wisdom (Zelda) that I've been playing recently. This pack includes three maps based on the actual game:
Seaside village (Seesyde) - a coastal village with cute little boat houses.
Oasis - an oasis based in the desert with some fun food and smoothie stands and a bigger minigame tent.
The Forgotten (Lost) World - based on the Lost World in ...

Hi all! Just wanted to share this month's schedule! I am currently away for a few days taking a bit of a break - as I've been going non-stop for a few months! I hope that the upcoming release excites you as much as it does me, I really enjoyed making Seesyde Village in particular. :)

Hi all, welcome pack to another slot-in session. This one is a level 6 oneshot for 4-6 players! Here's a little description:
A few months ago, the noble vampire clan of Ilrang was nearly wiped out by a rival house. The remnants of the group took shelter in a massive underground tomb: the Macguffin Family Crypt. The survivors took to the crypt, and began to use the last of their strength to summon an ancient weapon, a Dracolich, so that they might destroy their enemies once and for a...
2024-10-30 08:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostHi all! I just wanted to do a mini review regarding the slot-in sessions/oneshots that we have been releasing over the past three months - moreso out of curiosity!
So have any of you used the slot-in sessions so far? If so, then how did it go?
I realise my main thing is still battlemaps and honestly most people will still be here for that, but I just wanted to see who also joined for the oneshots! :D

Hey all! Welcome back to another release. I know a lot of us have different Halloween traditions, but I thought it'd be cool to incorporate some traditional Halloween options into some of these maps. For example, the Village has little pumpkins outside each house - where in the UK we use this or decorations to let others know that we are participating in trick or treat!
Anyway, this pack has three main maps - all along the feywild swamp theme from a few days back. This includes:
Hey all! I just wanted to share my latest map with you - a standalone release because we beat my friend in the TikTok war. Additionally, this is a thank you for 100 followers over there! This was suggested by Jan for the last poll and well, I thought it'd be a cool little map. The witch hut will release as part of the Spooky Season pack!
Hey all! Today I wanted to share with you some EPIC news with you! The soundtrack of The Bells of Da'Sabar is now publicly available for ALL of you to listen to on streaming services (Apple Music/Spotify/iTunes etc)!
I once again want to thank Megan Gillett, one of my friends and collaborators on The Bells of Da'Sabar oneshot. Usually, she focuses on classical music with a sort of Celtic influence, but has also dabbled in works like this. :D
Please check out her amazing album here...

I also wanted to add additional credit to those who suggested a character for a room of the adventurer's guild (Room 1 starts with the upper right house then goes through to 12, 13 starts with the top left of the main building and ...
2024-10-10 07:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostHey all! I just wanted to ask your opinion on file size and types when it comes to maps! As you know, I have been making larger and more detailed maps and admittedly it is QUITE difficult to keep file size down as a result.
Here I have a few choices!
Keep as it is, 140ppi JPGs
Reduce to 100ppi JPGs
Offer JPGs and WEBP
Just transition to WEBP

Hey all! As you can see the adventurer's guild is going well! I am doing one last call to see if anyone would like the BG3 or DnD characters (current or past) in this map. If so, let me know the room number you would like alongside the character's name and also what their room would look like!

Hey guys - I've got a fun little project for the next release and I thought it'd be really fun to get the community involvement on this one! I posted this last night to my Discord server but we still have a few spaces!

Hey all, welcome back to another paid member slot-in session. This month we have another epic adventure, this time for level 4 players. This one tells the story of Mimstrel Icken and how he lurks deep inside a dungeon, protected by many mimics.
Mimstrel Icken was a talented transmutation wizard, who always wanted to create smart objects that would change form to whatever their owner needed. This included a spoon, that could turn into a fork. Clothing that could harden into armour wh...

Hey all! Welcome back to another release - this time it is a remaster of my FIRST oneshot - Twisted Shadows of Iliki, but in the form of a slot-in session. I was still very new to the writing scene and reading through the original, I can tell that I have improved a hecking lot! As part of this, monsters have been mostly reworked, full Foundry integration has been added, text made more interesting and interactive - and more!
Iliki is a small, prosperous village with a large lake at i...
