Elfsong Tavern - DIA - Assets (Mapmaker+)

Elfsong Tavern - DIA - Assets (Mapmaker+)

Mapmakers and Cartographers, prepare to feast!

Before diving into the new adventure I wanted to lay a fresh foundation for asset management and offer new, more theme-specific asset packs. Lots of work has gone into generating 8 new asset packs (plus a 9th DIA pack) for your mapping needs.

This is just the beginning of reorganizing my asset collection with more packs to come in the ...

Elfsong Tavern - Baldur's Gate - Descent into Avernus (All Tiers)

Kicking off a new adventure! And keeping the tradition alive of starting a new adventure mapping in a tavern! Hell awaits!

Blackstaff Tower. One of the most recognizable landmarks in the Castle Ward. The 3-storey windowless and doorless stone structure dominates the central courtyard between 4 smaller towers. Home to the Blackstaff of Waterdeep.

Waterdeep City Map - North Ward - Part 1 (All Tiers)

Back above ground at last! I figured since I finished a massive and ambitious mapping project with DotMM, why not tackle another one!? So here it is, the first of many (staggered) releases for creating a detailed map of Waterdeep. These maps will be released alongside the DiA maps in the future (probably about 1 Waterdeep map/month - so it'll be a while before we get the full city together!)<...

May 2024 Map Poll (#1)

It's been a while since I've done a map poll with the push to finish off DotMM. This poll focuses us back above ground in Waterdeep looking at the Chapter 2 faction missions from Waterdeep Dragon Heist.

There are 2 locations marked with an * where combat is most likely to occur. Many other missions include combat but I am hopeful that my Waterdeep City map will be able to account for bas...

Dungeon of the Mad Mage - Map Keys

Dungeon of the Mad Mage - Map Keys

I've redone all the map keys for DotMM to make them more consistent and easier to find and use. I didn't realize that they were so helpful in using the maps and working with the Dungeon or I would have put them together more coherently from the start.

.png and .webp files are attached below.

These will also be included as journal entries in the upcoming DotMM Foundry VTT module upda...

These combined images are intended if you want to try setting up full dungeon levels in one image/scene. This is NOT recommended due to file size and performance issue...

Closing Off Dungeon of the Mad Mage

Level 1 of the Undermountain released in October of 2021. Two and a half years later it is amazing to be wrapping up Level 23 of this behemoth mapping project and looking ahead to the next adventure. It took far longer than I expected (and with a rocky middle section while my now-happy-and-healthy-2-year-old was in the NICU for 4 months) but it is incredible to be wrapping this up.
