Blackbloom Bastion [40x40] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

Over the crumbled rempart, a decrepit bastion barely stands, reclaimed by roots and vines. Its cracked walls let you peer inside at the stiffled corridors and the silent rooms. A proud lord and his family lived here. That was before the ill-fated birth of his only son. Now, the laughter of the his dancing hosts has faded, and so did the clamour of his knights. Now, only sorrow and anger walk these halls. Now, only the elegiac lament of the weary ghosts f...

Matron's Boudoir v.2 [20x15] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The scent of lilac and roses saturate the still air of this room. Nauseating smells of perfume, wine and a touch of something else assault your nose. At least the mistress is gone... for now ! You have but a little time ! The festivities downstairs are taking a turn towards the gruesome as the peaceful music becomes frantic, violins shriek and pianos cry. The guests had a fun time so far but it seems their hosts have a very different definition of entert...

Sneak Peek : Blackbloom Bastion [40x40] [4K]

Hello everyone ! Next week pack will be quite the colossus (again) ! The dreaded woods encroach a decrepit bastion belonging to once great and mighty family. The southern castle wall is in ruin and low growls come from the kennels. 

These are only two variations for the Pristine version of the pack, with candles lit up and rooms well cared for. The pack will also bring you four different variations for a Ruined version, with destroyed furniture and...

Rural Manor [40x30] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The weeds are crawling through the broken fences. The unhinged gates squeal in the northern wind as the sun sets. Gnarled trees are strung out accross the uncared park. Behind the thorny bushes and destroyed well, a foreboding manor stands in the middle of this seemingly abandoned estate. Its windows were barricaded in haste with planks and rusty nails. The only sign of a presence within its walls are the thing smokestacks raising from the crumbling chim...

Planning for the month of December

Hello everyone ! As you get deeper into Winter, I hope you're all faring well ! I'm doing fine on my end ! What's in store for us in December ? 


First, I'll announce here (and update my main post) that I will be publishing four map packs per month, as opposed to the "one map pack per week" policy. This will let me take a breather at the end of every month with five weeks. As time passes and I invest more and more times in each map pack, with a forever in...

Lurking Lake [80x60] [8K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The gentle waves wash dead leaves against the muddy shore. A rickety rowboat floats against the rotting dock. In the distance, you notice a small island protruding from the dark waters. Your destination. You hope nothing lurks within the lake, for a gentle breeze would be enough to sink this shabby boat. With a sigh, you embark under the starlight with your party, your weapons at the ready, muttering a quick prayer under your breath.

Necromancer's Lair [30x23] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

You tracked down the undead plague to a series of caves at the mountains' base. There, you discovered a web of secret tunnels leading to a laboratory. Rows of shelves filled with lifeless skulls welcome you inside the master's room, their empty socket seemingly following you with their vacant gaze. The air is thick with the nauseous scent of rotting flesh. Alchemical apparatuses of varying size and design bubble and hiss on their ivory tables. This place ...

Reekwater Hamlet [125x50] [8K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The stormy sky finally clears for a brief moment over the bay of sickening reputation. The rotten wood of the docks creak with a sinister moan under your boots. Behind the damp, mold-covered windows, you can still feel the gaze of the locals behind your back. That trip was a mistake. The voice of reason screams in the back of your brain to turn back, to take the road home, but alas for now you ignore it. The only way you are going is forward. Forward ont...

Caustic Caves [60x45] [6K] [Jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

As you make your way through the cavernous gullet, you can hear acid dripping from the cold stone roof above your head. Plink. Plink... You were surely expecting some amount of peril when you threw yourself in that earthly  maw, but you were far from reality. Everything in here is a lethal danger, from the caustic pools to the deadly drops reaching deep in the bowels of the Earth. Although these may not be the last of your troubles, as you he...

Manor House [20x27] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The old manor on Pennymount street. You heard tales of its precedent occupants, some flattering, some worrying. Whatever truth there might have been in the long stories the merchant served you, they're gone now. The imposing building stands tall in front of you. Yours for the taking as a reward for your services. What secrets these old perfumed halls can still hold ?

The Old Oak [30x40] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The dessicated and desecrated old tree stands withered at the top of the hill. The great branches float in the wind, like black ligneous tendrils extending to seize you. The whole tree creaks and moans, as in ancient agony, as blood drips from its bark, as the corpses attached to its branches swirl in the breeze. This place was a sacred ground in the past. The druids desecrated their own land in search of forbidden curses and long lost primordial powers....

Darkroot Ravine [40x30] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

As you wearily progress down the hidden path, the forest thickens. The trees form an almost impenatrable rampart of bark and roots. You can feel the wood's hostility in the leaves that you tread upon, in the air you breathe. Under the dense foliage, the already declining light recedes, conceding against darkness. The atmosphere is stiffling, as much as the thorns and vines are stiffling the nearby trees. The sweet scent of plant rot invades your lung...

Bypath of Broken Banners [30x40] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The ravine fell silent as you passed through the remnants of decrepit and long forgotten fortifications. Corrugated shields and plate armor litter the ground, their mission of protecting whoever carried them evidently failed. Broken spears and destroyed standards stick out of the ground, forming an almost impenatrable forest of spikes. Long forsaken tombs are unequally spread across the chasm. Stone vestiges of the lives they were intended to honor at som...

Sneak Peek - Manor House [20x27] Three stories building for your players and/or antagonist

The Manor House is turning out great. It's also turning out to be a bigger project than anticipated at first ! Due to technical difficulties, I lost my connection to the Internet for two weeks and just got it back. The pack has taken a slight delay due to this. Ground floor is sure to be completed with all variations for next release but I doubt the whole three stories will be complete in time. Nevertheless, I must say it may be one of my favorite interior maps so far. A nice challenge to tac...

Brigand's Bluff [48x36] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

As you navigate the sinuous paths of the cliffside forest, you notice an opening in the dense array of pines and treacherous mountainous slopes. It seems the local banditry made their camp up head, using the nearby cave and its ferocious inhabitants as a natural protection from potential outsiders, unable to navigate the vicinity of the creature's lair without danger. The approach will be even more complicated than you anticipated at first... Caution is ...

Chouka Village [40x30] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The small village was located deep in the hanging valley. A sinuous and secret path led through the peaks to the precarious pass leading into the hamlet. The elders always went to great efforts in order to keep intact the secretive nature of the community and its location. Spirits were numerous in these mountains, some benevolent. Most neutral, or worse. It was said that the spirits of the dead travellers who perished while trying to reach the village, w...

Bloodmire Marsh [Remake] [40x30] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The buzzing of winged parasites fills the still air. Your soaked feet struggle to go through the bloody mud. Yet, in this most disgusting of places you can find kid toys and sweets littering the dampened ground. Who could live in such a place yet with such a benign hobby ?

Monster's Lair [24x18] [4K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

After days and nights of relentless tracking in the fog and mud, you finally reached the lair of the creature. Broken bones litter the ground around the mossy, hidden cave. You put your handkerchief against your mouth in a desperate attempt to block out the rancid smell exuding from the darkened mouth of the grotto. The fast pounding of your heart, the shallow breath of the sleeping beast,... are the two only things one could heard that night, in that cl...

Wizard's Tower [80x60] [8K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

Give a mage a home ! The strange tower radiates of the arcane. Its confines are infinite. Its dweller, as secretive as they are paranoiac. Rooms over rooms over rooms of alchemical constructs, deadly roots and forbidden tomes spin in your mind. You feel exhausted climbing all these stairs that never end. You feel jealous, witnessing the extravagant luxury of another's life. You feel nauseous, contemplating the cosmos beyond the veil, discovering the feeb...

Sneak Peek - Wizard's tower

Hey all ! Sorry for the delay, as this one started as a "little two or three rooms project to take a break" and, of course, ended up as a monstrosity of 80x60 squares, counting 10 different uniquely themed rooms. Don't fret : the map will be published before Sunday with all variations : lived-in, destroyed, corrupted and mossy ! While you wait, take a look at a handful of the upcoming rooms ! It sure was a lot of fun putting everything together !

Blackreef Beacon [60x45] [8K] [jpg/webp]

Adventure hook

The lighthouse on Blackreef was built on top of a harpy nest destroyed ages ago by adventurers of old. The place is surely a little decrepit and ominous, but it does its purpose well enough. The grating staircase, despite the inhuman amount of rust it bears on its fragile anchor points, still does its job at bringing the keeper up and down. A squeamish odd man this one. Far too talkative for his own good. His stories have taken a turn for the extravag...

You found yourself deep beneath enemy lines, in the bowels of the ground. The walls around you pulse in rythm with the distant pumping of an abnormally sized heart.
