Canyon Bottom Encounter Map - The tiered levels rising up the side of the canyon dictate the status of citizens in the Cradle - the higher you are the better. Unfortunately, that means those at the bottom are often forgotten about and have to make due scrounging together whatever shelters they can and pitching up next to the river which created this canyon.
Enjoy!

Haven't posted in a while, lots of spinning plates, plus trying out a new software too. Just a nice simple low-end bar to refresh myself.
Enjoy!

FREE MAP - Underground River
Deep beneath the sands of the desert is a vast natural tunnel system. Some of these tunnels still have water running through them. This attracts all sorts of life from above and below. Who might your party find?
Enjoy!

FREE MAP - Watch Point Ruins Canyon
The remains of an old outpost or watch tower signify the entrance the ever descending canyon. How will you try to kill the party this time?
Enjoy!

FREE MAP - Temple Trouble - Finally reaching the bottom of the complex should always be an ominous feeling. This temple seems to have some sort of ritual taking place. Are you players able to stop it? Or do they want it completed?
Enjoy!

FREE MAP - Desert Ruins Entrance (gridded and non - 70px)
Enjoy!
25/01/2022
Desert Tent Village - Situated between several high dunes, this town is sheltered from the winds and blustering sands of the desert. However, this leaves them isolated and cut off from almost everyone else. Will it be a reprise from the desert for the party or will they stumble into something more dangerous than the desert itself?
Enjoy!

FREE MAP - Feywild Clearing
The flora is oversized, the light filtering through from above has a pinkish hue to it, the water seems to glow iridescently but it all seems so familiar, as if you have been here before ...

Something a little different to normal. Here is a large set of rooms, unconnected so you can decide the distance/journey between them. I picture it (and am using it in my current sessions) as a dwarven vault of a long dead lord. Traps, hazards, monster encounters and more are rife throughout the dungeon.
Got any suggestions for an encounter map? Happy to try and make a few

After a quiet week last week here is this weeks FREE MAP!
Blocked Mountain Pass - Winter is coming! The race to make it to safety before the next fall is imperative. Yet, as always, the wise and omnipotent DM has thrown another obstacle in your path - the way is blocked!
31/10/2021
Something a bit different this week. Got asked to make a continent/world map based of an elevation map pre generated. It was a fun challenge and I think it tuned out pretty well too.
Enjoy!

FREE MAP - Over and Underpass - A perfect spot for an ambush from above? Or perhaps a nice troll under the bridge - classic! Whether your party are taking the high road or the low road, have something ready for them.
Enjoy!

FREE MAP - Feywild Crossing point
Deep in the forest locals speak of a stone arch with a green glow. "They believe that it's a gateway to the Feywild. Ha sure, likely story. Everyone knows the Feywild is a myth made to keep children from venturing too far into the forests."
Enjoy!

Just for you guys on this page - a second free map!
Abandoned Tree House - You discover a large tree with some sort of wooden structure set up in its branches. A tree house! How cool! But why has it been abandoned? Who lived here? Does anyone or anything use it now?
Enjoy! patreon.com/thecitydweller

With FB down last Monday I did not post anything. SO this is the first of two free maps this week.
The Feywild River/Pool - Diving deep into the forest pool for a refreshing break, you resurface in a strangely recognisable but completely different place. You have entered the Feywild and it appears to be twilight. What 'friendly' welcome will you prepare for your party?
Enjoy! patreon.com/thecitydweller

FREE MAP - Fey Crossing, Seelie Mound In stark contrast to the winter surrounding it, Seelie Mound sits in a flourishing collection of flowers and mushrooms. Something is not right. What might come from the now glowing portal? patreon.com/thecitydweller

FREE MAPS - A crystal clear pond is frozen over minus the very edges, which have begun to thaw. Is it safe to rest here?
