Seven variants, five animated - a true treasure trove!

Need a festive NPC for your game? You can use Jack Frost.

Do you need a festive NPC for your game? You can use Jack Frost.

For the Player The urchin that stands before you is almost deathly pale, his hair so blonde it might as well be white. Looking to be of an age caught between the innocence of childhood and the disquiet of adolescence, his clear blue eyes have an ageless quality to them, where mischief and wisdom twinkle in equal measure. A chill surrounds the boy, who seems altogether untroubled by it, despite his threadbare clothes and bare feet.

For the DM Jack Frost may be a harbinger of winter, cold, and ice, but he's also a consummate prankster who brings in his wake the joys of ice-skating, the fun of snowball fights, and the beauty of frost crystals. As a result, his reputation among mortals is mixed, but his incarnation responds in equal measure to the way he is treated. With a short fuse and a distaste for metaphysical debates, Jack exists for the present moment with both grim purpose and childlike glee.

Ossuary

It’s over 9000!!! Bones, that is, meticulously arranged in this fascinating ossuary where the dead lie more or less peacefully. Amidst the the tombs of lords, ladies, and monarchs, hidden passageways conceal forgotten treasure, while a recent breach by hungry ghouls threatens the pristine state of this hallowed resting place! Inspired by a recent visit to the Paris Catacombs, this map serves as a chilling memento mori, and the perfect setting for your players’ morbid adventures.

Police Station and Morgue

This is a police station and morgue. The upper floor has a reception area, four clean jail cells for holding prisoners, a magical interrogation room, and lots of desk space for officers to carry on their investigations, or do all their paperwork.

The lower floor has the paperwork archive for past cases, as well as an evidence room, a meeting room, and a morgue where bodies are held and examined for cause of death or corpses are reanimated to be questioned regarding cases.

Ship Graveyard

This is where ships come to die. Perhaps natural currents wash them up here, or perhaps something sinister lurks in this water that destroys all ships that approach the shore.

Druid Cave

Let your heroes explore the enchanting depths of this druid cave, pulsating with life and mystical energy.

Do you need an NPC for your game? You can use Minëlla the Elf Princess⁠.⁠

For the Player:⁠ There is a hardness beneath the graceful female elf’s wan smile, an aloofness as she regards you coolly. Though her simple and practical garments very closely resemble her peers’, a few delicate ornaments of gold filigree, fine silk, and a circlet mark her superior station.⁠ ⁠ For the Dungeon Master⁠ Minëlla is the granddaughter of Finrandir the Ageless, and serves as her forebear’s most trusted advisor and counsellor. It has been decades since any foreigner in these lands have been granted an audience with Finrandir himself. By his wishes, Minëlla handles all interactions with outsiders, which she does fairly but always with the best interests of her people as a priority.⁠

Hell Pit

Is you party trapped in this cage? Are you trying for an epic rescue. Who will rise from the lava to stop you? This map has 5 versions.

Library

One of the first maps I made was a library in both functioning and destroyed state. I wanted to revisit this idea so I made this new three story library. The idea is that this is a somewhat magical library and up on the third floor there is a hidden room that houses a very powerful book. Perhaps your adventurers need to find it, steal it, or protect it. In the alternate version I also have the trashed version of the library. I did two versions of the third floor, one with the book still there, and one with it stolen.

Farmstead

An idyllic farmhouse, its outbuildings, crops, livestock, and plenty of room to raise happy children by the babbling stream that feeds fresh water to these happy lands. Or perhaps the produce that is the output of this particular farm isn’t quite so wholesome, but rather fit for evil wizards and mad alchemists the realm over?! Or maybe you happened to settle in the fey lands. Behold the three variants of this fully animated farm map, where your players might find rural bliss or something more sinister altogether!

Isle of the Foxes

What the fox?! This diminutive islet features a mysterious arrangement of vulpine statues, some better hidden than others under the foliage of palm trees. Are they the key to finding a fabulous treasure, or merely the folly of some deranged animal fancier? Alternate versions of this fully animated map feature rabbit or pharaoh statues to further befuddle your heroes, a ship docked by its sandy shores, and even a variant with no statues at all! The only question you must ask yourself is this: what do the foxes say?⁠
