What monster do you want?

I'm thinking of creating a giant creature asset to go with the Reef Hole Maps which you prefer? I'll try to make variants that will work with each map variant.

Reef Hole - Feywild, Shadowfell

[30x30]

For those of you running seagoing adventures in the fey or fell planes these variants of my Reef Hole map should come in handy. Regardless, I would suspect they could work as lair entrances for specific types of monsters even on the ...

Reef Hole

[30x30]

If you on discord you saw I was working on some underwater terrain. I'm very pleased to feel that I've got it down enough to put out a map. Have you ever been swimming and find yourself over a deep spot? Creepy right? Well....Sea Dra...

Independence Fest - Fireworks

[30x30]

What's an Independence Day festival without fireworks?! ...Or really any fest for that matter. Hopefully, this map comes in handy for all kinds of celebration shenanigans.  Perhaps the party has a silly encounter where they are ...

Independence Fest

[30x30]

For those of you planning an Independence Day adventure, I figured this might come in handy. The scene before you is a small town's lakeside festival where a path winds its way up the hill to a small tower platform. The platform is u...

Snowy Gulch

[50x50]

I used this map for my party's encounter with the goblins and their mega wagon north of Bryn Shander. It's a large spread-out encounter with plenty of room for maneuvering. This frozen gulch has 20-foot cliffs flanking it where playe...

Mounds

[30x30]

For those more random encounters, I made this simple map. Your players might be able to eke out some tactical advantage here by taking the high ground. These maps are good for more straightforward battles without the imposed physical...

Drifter Road - Desert

[30x30]

The only landmark in an otherwise featureless expanse, your party's road to salvation and their next adventure! This drifter road comes lined with palms and a more barren variant. It's my first foray into desert-themed maps and I...

Northlook Inn - Bryn Shander

[30x30]

This map was a ton of fun to make. My gang and I will be starting Rime of the Frostmaiden this coming week and I'm so pumped! Here is the Northlook Inn from Bryn Shander. A large A-frame building with brazier spires around the en...

Drifter Road - Northern

[30x30]

I put this variant together for those parties who might be traveling in the north or the mountains but perhaps not in the arctic. A little more greenery and thus a larger variance of monsters and encounters can take place here. I ad...

Drifter Road - Snowy

I'm pretty pumped about this one!. I had a lot of fun working on the aurora. If you are playing Rime of the frost maiden its a must! This set of variants has snowy weather as well. I next release a set of less snow variant for those of you playing...

Drifter Road

30x30

My party needs some maps that specifically depict a more temperate climate. They are on their way north to Icewind dale. So I made this encounter map should they happen across something. I will be releasing a series of variants that a...

Beach Front

30x30 or 50x50

Well, we are in the dead of winter here IRL but I'm dreaming of beaches. This set of beach fronts are a great landing point for the party or even for a creature to assail your group of heroes from the water.  There are so...

Cave Entrance

35x35 or 50x50

Your party has been hired to kill "The Beast" and they've tracked it back to its lair, only perhaps they are in for more than they thought. This cave entrance is large! Who knows what monster lurks inside. Maybe the tactic is ...

Cairn Circle Winter

Grid: 30x30

I wanted to do a release of this map themed for Winter. If you haven't yet, be sure to check out the original Cairn Circle map set. ...

River Run

Grid: 30x50 or 30x100

I was pretty pumped to put this map together particularly the Abyssal variant which I think works well for a River Styx motif also. I think this map, while fairly straightforward, provides a lot of opportunities for uni...

Farmhouse

Grid: 35x35 or 50x50

The seasons are changing and nobody knows that better than a farmer so this time I was inspired to put together a farm. The farmhouse itself is a small 2 story dwelling accompanied by a barn and a mill. This encounter ma...

Skyland Portal Ring

Grid: 50x50

My first attempt at a floating island. I am excited to do more of these. Whatever you like to refer to the formation as whether it's, earthmote, floating island, or skyland/skisland...this one is a chunk of earth floating high ab...

Drowned Forest

Grid: 36x36 or 50x50

"The Drowned Forest was once a verdant region. A few decades ago, he marsh began to encroach on this area. As the water level rose, the forest was transformed into a more foreboding place. Shambling mounds and blights ap...

Swamp Den

Grid: 36x36 or 50x50

How about a super creepy place for a monster or bad guy to make their home in the swamp? For me, this overgrown mangrove/banyan clump has become home to a nefarious swamp hag who's been performing creepy rituals on creat...

Dreadwood

Grid: 24x26

Bonus map this week! This creepy forest map comes by request of Patron Ryan, who needed it for his GoS campaign. The deeper you go into the forest the less the light penetrates until somewhere in its depths there is no distinctio...

Swamp

Grid: 20x30

Overcast, fraught with foul odors, dangerous gasses that emit lights at night, and creatures lurking in the stagnate waters....swamps can be challenging landscapes that ward off would-be adventurers. They can mess with your mind ...

Cairn Circle

Grid: 30x30

Something is up in the forest! Strange creatures and happenings have been reported. Some say they've seen Satyrs and Sprites. Let your players investigate and stumble upon a strange and wonderful scene or large stone cairns erect...

A Light in the Dark Fey Road

Grid: 35x13

Filled this map on an encounter request based on the Light in the Dark encounter listed in 3rd edition Book of Challenges. Use the vines and creepers to snag up travelers. I can't wait to use this for my own game! Good overgrown ...

Feywild Pond Bank

My 3rd Feywild wilderness encounter map. I'm on a Feywild kick. This time another clearing a bit larger than the first and a bit more dynamic so you can include more creatures. This map can be used as an extension of the 2020-08-11 14:00:26 +0000 UTC View Post

Feywild Pond Crossing

I'm really happy with how this came out. The color palette really lends itself to such a whimsical setting as the Feywild.

The party parts the bushes and tall grass and find themselves on the bank of a pond (or stream). With their objective...
