Darkest Maps

The cheerful buzz of the market fades as sudden screams pierce the air. Three men drag a terrified innkeeper from a nearby building. The crowd freezes in fear around you… will you do the same?

They say a nomad camp is never found in the same place twice. Finding one is already a stroke of luck. If you’re fortunate enough to stumble upon it, don’t waste the chance. Every tent has a story to tell.

SLAM. The moment your boots cross the threshold, iron bars slam shut behind you. The exit stands ahead, but will it even open? To face the foes patrolling the chamber, will you go stealth, strike head on, or mix both to survive?

Things escalate quickly in this dungeon room. The bridge has collapsed, enemies await, and spears shoot from holes in the wall. Can you jump across, fight, dodge… and maybe find a way to shut the traps down? 🤔

#dnd #battlemap #art

You wake to chains on your ankles and a stench that could raise the dead. The barred windows confirm it. You are in a city prison. Time to plan your escape…

#dnd #battlemap #art

Weary from battle, you step into the crossroads chamber. Your boots echo on the cracked mosaic as a hooded statue looms ahead. Its cryptic carvings may reveal the right path, but only if you can decipher their meaning.

The moment you set foot into the dark dungeon, four massive braziers flare to life, their glow dancing across the stone walls. An automatic enchantment… or has someone already heard you arrive, daring you to press on?

#dnd #battlemap #art

The view of the waterfall and the graceful, tranquil statue is strangely soothing, and the crystal-clear water seems to invite you to take a refreshing dip.After all the trials you’ve endured, such peace almost feels… suspicious.

#dnd #battlemap #art

The water glimmers clear and inviting beneath the desert sun. Yet as you draw near, you quickly notice enormous Black Scorpions crawling amidst scattered bones.
To claim this precious oasis, you’ll have to fight tooth and nail.

#dnd #battlemap #art

Stepping into the cold, you catch the eerie creak of shifting shadows and the rustle of unseen foes. The labyrinth whispers of lurking terrors—dare you uncover what hides in its dark corridors?

#dnd #battlemap #art

In the dim glow of the tent, torchlight gleams off fangs and blades. One guard holds the key, but a direct attack would alert the whole camp. What clever plan will you craft to free your companion?

The Orc Camp is a brutal, battle-worn stronghold carved into a rugged canyon, its jagged walls marked with blood-stained symbols and tattered red banners.

As you walk a dusty trail, war drums and guttural grunts mix with crackling embers. Before you lies an orc camp—a wild maze of bone tents, their red fabric rippling in the wind.

#dnd #battlemap #art

Stealthily, you move forward, hidden among the trees. You spot sentries atop the ruins and others by the campfire. The crumbling walls obscure your view, making it hard to see how many foes lie within. Time to come up with a plan better than just “Fireball solves everything.”

Thank you ^^!

Thank you ^^

This charming intersection, once perfect for relaxation and shopping, suddenly turns tense. A scream slices through the cheerful chatter. Before you can react, a hooded figure with a glinting blade slips away into the shadows. How will you act?

The small campsite in front of the pyramid looks deserted. As you investigate, you hear strange, squelching sounds behind you; a group of undead is emerging from the sand, growling menacingly. They appear to have died recently. Could they be the owners of the tents?

Thank you Ori :D !!

Urgent voices catch your attention. In front of the windmill, a group of men is threatening the miller and his family. When one of the brigands violently grabs the miller’s young daughter, you realize you can’t just stand by and watch.

#dnd #battlemap #art

Suddenly, you hear a rustle. Looking around, nothing seems to be watching you from the hidden depths of the forest. Another rustle, closer, makes you realize something is following you from the treetops! Looking up, you see small, evil eyes gleaming among the branches.

#dnd #battlemap #art

From the rough sea, a Kraken rises. Its fiery eyes glare malevolently at the sacrifice prepared by cultists, ready to devour it and obey the horrid orders of those who summoned it. Can you send this horror back to the abyss and save the sacrifice, or are you too late?

#dnd #ttrpg #battlemap #art

We hope you have happy holidays, just like the folks of Farmer Village 🎄

#dnd #ttrpg #battlemap #art

Instead of the usual sweet and efficient Elves, this year’s Christmas gifts are being prepared by chaotic and clumsy Goblins.
No one can say if your gift will be a cuddly teddy bear or a stick of dynamite.
It’s best to intervene before someone gets hurt.

Following the scattered remains, you reach the eerie cave entrance. The slippery, blood-soaked terrain adds to the tension. Will you brave the monster’s den head-on, or explore the area to devise a trap and lure it out?

#dnd #ttrpg #battlemap #art

Your deeds have granted you access to this exclusive place, in the presence of the King and his council! Will he entrust you with a mission after hearing about you? Will he reward you for some action you have done? Or did something go wrong and you were dragged here in handcuffs?

#dnd #ttrpg #art

The Farmer Village is the perfect first campaign for any adventurer. Spirits that haunt the fields, animals killed or stolen, small thefts: countless problems can afflict this peaceful village and you are the only ones who can help solve them!

#dnd #ttrpg #art

You finally see the light at the end of the cave you have been exploring, when you stumble upon these Ancient Ruins. Maybe it is worth taking a look around 👀
