Erdea Manor - Catacombs
And here is the final (and fourth) level of Erdea Manor – the Catacombs deep beneath the ruins of the manor house. Over the next week or two I’ll finish stocking all four levels (90 keyed areas) of Erdea Manor and will keep tabs on the posts over on the Erdea Manor page.
Once again, this map was drawn in HB (#2) Pencil on plain white paper, scanned and contrast-enhanced without any other “prettification” processes used.
This week, while digging through my map portfolio for a piece I had to rescan for someone else’s project, I came across a folder of a few dozen maps I hadn’t scanned yet. A true little treasure trove of awesome. I’ll post some of those over the coming weeks.
Fabulous!!
Thank you for all the dungeons of your blog.
It lacks just a map of the country, a small village description and a megaplot to have enough to make a great campaign “Old-School sandbox” :-)
That’s a great idea. I need to draw up a hexmap of my blog.
Place the cities I’ve posted on it, the one small village that I drew (plus the small village from The Charmed Grotto), and all those dungeons…
Heh.
I was actually thinking of doing the same! I mean, placing your dungeons in a sandbox. But you can make a better job of it for sure! :D and some great mapping, of course!
There’s actually a bunch of people doing that already – which I love. Especially for those dungeons that I haven’t stocked, just mapped. They turn up in the darnedest places.
I am really looking forward to your .pdf of this effort. You do great work.
This blog is surely a future classic.
It’s not the TSR, but perhaps the Dragon magazine of the old-school renaissance.
In 20 years people will say something like:
-Remember that old map-guy? Dyson, or something…
-Oh, I loved those dungeons, it was on the old internet, right? You had to physically “double-click“ to make choices.
-Yeah, and then it would take like 2, sometimes 3 seconds before anything actually happened. I don’t know how anyone could stand it, but we did just to get those great maps! They don’t make them like that anymore…
Great work!
You flatter me, sir. I can only hope that this happens sooner than 20 years from now.
