Map 40 - Skyward Hold

This is my last map of 2016, it doesn't cost you anything because I already reached the quota !!! 

It's an amazing idea for a flying fortress guild, check out the attached PDF with different adventure ideas on how to use it !

Thanks to all of you and merry holidays !

Merry Christmas - map 39

Hello everybody ! Merry Christmas to all of you who have believed in my content and have come forward to fund me.

This is an awesome free one-shot adventure for all of you to read and try with unsuspecting Players.

Question

What types of maps, or ideas (suggestions) do you have for future maps? Only for silver stylus and golden compass levels :)

Promo post !

Are you wondering what I'm creating in this patreon campaign? this is an example picture of one of my maps. All my patrons have acccess to a PDF file with two versions of this map.   One for DMs with area names, and one for PCs, without area names and traps (if there are any).

Also, I always include an adventure idea or a one-shot adventure to inspire fellow DMs into the most exciting scenarios. In this case, there is a tribe of Sahuagin who have taken control over the city's sewage ...

End of the year !

I just posted the 10th paid post this month. As explained in my homepage, I will only post 10 paid posts.

Now, I will probably be posting some extra free material. I will probably use this uncharged posts to try new things and experiment a little. Some of this material will also be Patreon-Exclusive.

I'll go out on vacations at the end of the year, so I might disappear for a few days. So If I don't have the chance to say so, Merry christmas and holidays to all of you !

You really h...

Map 38 - Infested Sewers

An awesome one-shot adventure appropriate-ish for level 4-5 parties. Mind you, it's a little lethal, but easily adjusted.

An oldtime cliché of cleaning the sewers with a twist; evil sahuagin taking overthe sewage system !!!

This is the tenth and last paid-post of December BTW, Thank you again to all of you who have helped me make this project real !

Map 37 - Forest Lodge

I bring you this autumn forest map, where a deranged elf lives, hiding a cursed necklace.   He is helped by a pack of wolves.

Hope you enjoy it ! We are closing the year !  Thank you again ! my generous patrons.   BTW The PDF files will be now attached to these posts, not linked to my google drive account.

Map 36 - Old Dwarven Mine

This abandonded mine is now home to pesky mischievous kobolds. It's n excellent dungeon crawl for low-ish level parties. There is also a treasure room which requires the key to be found. Over all a great one-shot experience for dungeon spelunkers.

First goal (unpaid)

Earlier this month, the first milestone for my Patreon campaign was achieved. 30 dollars per map or creation. As explained, over here there is no specialized art supplies store. Ordering online is the only option but more costly. My package of assorted professional pens just arrived. Expect to see more detail and awesome stories in my upcoming material. Thanks again to everyone who has gotten involved and collaborated ! You guys are awesome !

Question to my patrons (unpaid post)

Lately most of my material has been full colored maps. But if you've followed me since the beginning, my earlier maps were all black and white. Like this one for example:

http://www.elventower.com/archives/468

So my question is, are interested in black and white maps too?

Underground Aboleth's slaves

This is a nice one-shot where some aboleth slaves try to capture and enslave the PCs. The map however can be repurposed for pretty much any other underground scenario.

My new profile bio pic - free post

Some of you may have noticed my new profile bio picture. It's a kind of mash up of different maps in different perspectives, with the tag "Do you like maps?"

The one in my bio was an extra filter that makes it look like water paint, or something like that, but this is the unedited version, free for all my patreons.

It probably can't be used in any game, it's just an easter egg map-wise.

Merry december and brace yourselves for more content.

Map 34 - River Crossing

Will PCs dare croos this ogre guarded bridge? will they negotiate a fee? or straight out attack?

This is the first top-view area map I draw. I’m really happy with the result. The 1 km scale makes it very convenient to explore, even in a one-shot scenario, PCs can walk from town to town in a few hours. It lends perfectly for low-level work like escorting merchants from town to town. Exploring old ru...

In the darkest depths of the underdark, the drow priestesses reign among everyone else. Drow social structures place women and priestesses above the inferior male. It is them who hold the most advantageous positions. This a temple to Lolth, the spider queen, mother of drow. Few will dare approach suc...

Thanks you !!! (Unpaid post)

I just wanted to let you know that I am in an unbelievable level of gratefulness to you. For believing in what I do and actively support me. As soon as December starts and the pledges are processed, I'm going to go a little over my rewards specifications and draw a map to your liking. Out of thankfulness for being the first people to support me. (Maybe an extra one for people on silver stylus or golden spyglass level) Thanks again !!!
