Map List & Descriptions
1. Kobold Warrens (40x35) – Day & Night
A chaotic tunnel system carved by small, crafty hands. Features makeshift camps, cramped sleeping quarters, improvised traps, and a natural underground stream.
Perfect for kobold skirmishes, prisoner rescues, or early-level dungeon crawls.

The Haunt (25x35) – Day & Dust Storm
A ruined desert site battered by wind and drifting sands.
Ideal for ambushes, archaeological exploration, cursed relic encounters, or supernatural events during a deadly dust storm.
Abandoned Mine (68x47) – Day & Night
A sprawling, multi-path mine filled with old tracks, collapsed tunnels, storage chambers, and ominous depths.
Use it for intense chases, subterranean monsters, or uncovering forgotten industrial secrets.
Treacherous Quarry Exterior (35x25) – Day & Night
An abandoned quarry filled with unstable ridges, cracked clay deposits, rusted tools, and scattered debris.
Great for open-field combat, hazard-based encounters, or unraveling the site’s mysterious abandonment.

A hidden network of tunnels leading to a circular arcane chamber humming with energy.
Perfect for climactic boss fights, ritual interruptions, ancient devices, or planar anomalies.
The Road West (35x20) – Day & Night

A great setup for train ambushes, smuggling operations, or desperate escape scenes.
Quickstone Outskirts (20x35) – Day & Night
The edge of a small frontier settlement marked by dust-worn buildings, shady stalls, carts, and hidden corners.

Droaam Arena (50x45) — Day & Night
Step into the brutal heart of Droaam with this massive arena built for gladiatorial spectacle.
Carved stone walls, scarred sand, heavy iron gates, and elevated balconies create the perfect stage for monstrous tournaments, political trials by combat, or deadly entertainment demanded by Droaam’s warlords.

Day Variant: Dust, heat, and roaring crowds set the tone for dramatic combat.

Night Variant: Torchlit shadows twist the arena into a sinister battleground suited for executions, secret rituals, or monster-baiting under the moon.
