Hi patrons! We present you a new map "Town Market" [30x38]. Another map for which you cast your votes, namely its square. You have a lot of options to choose from and you can use this map to create a great adventure in the city.

"Thieves Guild Hideout" [30x38] has 16 map variants (plus grid, no-grid, JPG, PNG and PDF versions) and 57 assets (ready for Roll20, Foundry or your favourite VTT platform).

Small towns of the Sword Coast, like Daggerford or Secomber, have their own pace. People living there don’t know each other by name, but still, every piece of information travels across the city at the speed of light. Of course, the main place of exchange - both goods and news, is the market.

Stands are placed down every weekend - merchants from the neighborhood, local farmers, travelers, all try to sell their treasures and earn some coin for the upcoming days.

Nestrill, son of the innkeeper is one of the hunters in the town, helping his father as he can. Having a tavern in a place like this is not very profitable, but is enough to make a living. All of those sellers need a drink after a long day in the sun or a bowl of hot stew during winter!

The best time for the inn, and the city in general, is the hunting season. For a few weeks in the year nobles with their entourage travel across the country in the search of the mighty beasts and monsters, spending tons of money outside the capital or their castles boosting the economy of the ordinary people. Most of it comes back to them in the taxes anyway.

Princes pay the locals to be their guides, or they gather young adventurous boys for the more dangerous hunts. Sometimes they try to catch a dragon or a griffon, but sometimes it is the way to cover up recruitment of fresh meat for their armies. War can get messy and every soldier is worth a hundred times more than usual.

Anway, Nestrill was lucky enough to stay away from the horrors of the battle and when your party finally arrives at the city he’s more than happy to help!

He can tell you the story about the magical fountain in the town square, or dryads living in the nearby forest. Maybe for a few gold pieces, he would share some secrets of the people living here?

Imagination is your weapon and we hope that our short story will inspire you in your next campaign! :)

This map will also be available in a dynamic lighting version prepared especially for Foundry VTT for Patrons with tiers $10 and $20!
