Deep Forest Shrine [35x35]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

While I am a profound magic user and always have a trick or two up my sleeve, I never use magic for writing. There is something magical in sharpening a quill, going the extra mile for quality ink, and trying to save paper from mold and dampness.

While my fingers are capable of destruction, creation, and il...

Swamp Watchtowers [25x25]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

No one, whoever ventured beyond the timid areas of Myriadin, could forget the Swamplands. Ruled by the wicked blood moon druids, the entire energy of the place easily beats undead Kor territory.

The stench of death, trees as if they would grow everywhere else, and the omnipresent threat paint the cruel pic...

Beast Den [25x40]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

I never shared Grizkh's outdoor enthusiasm, but I am not immune to the beauty of nature. Whenever we travel outside Restermound and Screaming Hills, I insist on taking this road.

My back aches on soil and grass and stiffens inside the damp cave. But the cave beside the forest road is dry as a bone for some...

Dungeon Prison [25x25]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

Elves have a strange sense of humor. In the old days, they wouldn't even touch the stone or move the rock, focusing entirely on wood. They innately left the dwarves and deep gnomes with the rocks, building the homes high on the broad trees and looking down on the rest of us.

Nowadays, they make their homes...

Mountain Monastery [25x30]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

The Torn Mountain took its toll on us. We battled our way through it - and no soul can't deny our claim on it. We climbed a few thousand steep stairs carved into the mountain. We defeated two huge bronze giants guarding the entrance.

The gate closed behind us, leaving us in total darkness. Grizkh's adept e...

Tree Bridge [25x30]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

The subtle calmness in the scent of the Inner Tressard mends all my wounds. Every time I visit, an inner excitement overwhelms me, and I, although seldom, smile. I bore even the yellowed pages of this diary, but Inner Tressard holds a special place in my heart.

Endless meadows, wild animals, numerous cattl...

Nobleman's Mansion [21x27]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

The road to Witherport is seldom joyous and colorful. Soil is covered with a thick layer of grey-green dust, trees loom over the roads, and the sun is permanently hidden behind the heavy clouds. Even Grizkh, a constant and non-stop hummer, is silent as a grave.

We often travel to the dead region, but I fin...

Challenge Rooms [9x9] [Doctor's Stash]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

Where in the cold hell are we? Is this the devil's office, or we're just this unlucky? This hallway is cold and endless, and I could differ screams of at least nine people.

And when we enter the room, nothing, just some random trivial nonsense. Every chamber requires a certain brain or bodywork to escape. ...

Dungeon Entrance [20x30]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

The afternoon sun was warming our backs as we climbed the endless stairs of Mount Torn. The city named after it is in a perpetual haze in the distance, deflecting siege after siege. Brimstone rains on its gate, but due to some ancient spite, and as if there was a tacit agreement, the people of Prsh'Un never ceased defending it.

Caravan Camp [30x20]

Excerpt from Aaron's diary:

The road was bumpy, and the air was somewhat stale. As if someone pressed from above, adding immense weigth to our soldiers. I felt that way, but I couldn't read Grizkh. My giant friend was humming a tune I now recognize as an "Orkish Feeding Song," never worrying about a thing.

"Aaron, you worry for both ...

Viking Hall [21x25]

Dear friends,

At the beginning of 2023, we're back to standalone, more generic, and usable maps! We decided to make smaller, beautiful maps that would find their way into your campaigns, such as this Viking Hall!

We figured there needed to be more building maps, and we are delighted with this one. Make sure you don't insult your host! Skol!
