Basalt Lair [30x40] - Red Dragon Lair

Added 2024-03-01 04:05:07 +0000 UTC

Rising heat. The choking stench of sulfur fumes. Basalt columns rise to form a cathedral of volcanic rock. Across the floor lay the stone remains of a dragon fallen long ago; now turned to stone. Or perhaps some cult shaped the molten rock in one's image. Watch your step as you search for secrets within the flames. You never know when the floor might melt beneath you....

This map was a lot of fun to work on. I wanted to continue our journey exploring different dragon lairs, this time taking on a classic Red Dragon Lair, but keeping more minimal and terrain based. The map features a lot of different vertical movement points for that aerial combat. It also has a fair amount of cover areas giving the party set up options for fights versus an open arena. Some of the variants can be used in a sequence if you wanted to create a phased eruption during the encounter. Others take you to completely different locales and switch up the narrative potential.

Patrons can find the links to auto download their packs below. As always, each map comes in 140ppi and 200ppi formats with both gridded and no grid versions of each. That's 4 files per variant for those keeping count. Once again we've hit the Patreon file size limit, so Archmage Tier maps have been split up into 3 parts.
