Madrek’s Descent

This map was drawn as a set-piece for a climactic encounter where the PCs either rush for the ending while being pursued, or their enemies are the ones rushing while the PCs pursue them (in my game...

Scavengers' Deep - Map 26

The Scavengers' Deep is a reminder of the amount of work that went into underground structures during the great war. Generally, the elves only built underground when hiding their breeding and resea...

The Greystone Ruins

The Greystone Ruins stand on a weathered rise above a wide, rocky plain, several days travel from any settled road. Beyond the rise, the land rolls away in low, scrub-covered hills punctuated by pa...

The Muster Gatehouse

The Muster Gate, on the south side of the city, is where the troops of the Satrapy traditionally mustered when called upon to take action outside the city – such as for the assault on the Knave�...

Fallen Temple of Sekhmet

The old temple of Sekhmet claws at the barren earth like the ossified remains of a primordial beast, its stones worn pale. Approaching from the south is a sea of ruin where great columns lie in cha...

The Prism Burrow

Down deep where the miners refuse to return, light seems to take on different forms; to puddle, to glimmer in mid-air, to be colourless, and yet to shine too brightly.

These mines have long b...

Dreamspinner’s Nest

A place of velvet and rot, a palace of sleep where dreams are both banquet and battlefield. Corridors and galleries that breathe like lungs, tapestries that unweave themselves when looked at too lo...

the Ossuary of Whispers

They built the ossuary where ley-storms gather, in a hollowed cleft between two black spurs of rock, lest the wind carry their voices to more pleasant lands. From the road, it looks like a church o...

The Umbral Hatchery

The Hatchery is a wound in the rock. Light dies here by slow degrees. Torches gutter as if breathed upon by winter. Sound comes hollow, like footsteps in a skull. Those who linger feel the edges of...

The Mycocrypt Museum

A subterranean marvel curated by deep gnomes to preserve wonders of the Underdark, the Mycocrypt Museum now lies in ruin – a victim of one of its own exhibits. The other exhibits have decayed, th...

Its curtain wall, ...
