Champion Tier - Reaching Fog Woods - 40x40 (Patreon)

Update Sep 29th 2022: Hey everyone! My good friend and companion in this journey, Pyram King, has made an incredible video featuring this map along with one of my Berez Ruins map. It features an incredible encounter with lots of spiders and a wicked NPC named the Spider Queen. Her story is also interwoven with the Knights of Argynvostholt and Pyram really outdid himself! Warning: This is not for the arachnophobic! 

You can find his incredible video here and I highly recommend it!

Cheers,

DM Andy

Original Post: 

It is always recommended to stay to the roads when traveling across The Misty Realm, however, some parties might find the need venture into the haunted Misty Woods. As reaching, finger-like tendrils of fog swirl around your party, the branches of the dead trees looming overhead creak and groan. A set of red eyed ravens peer at you perched atop web covered branches as they wait for their next meal to devour. Either from the skulking spiders or the prowling wolves, the ravens of the land never go without a corpse to feed on for long.

Hey everyone and happy release day! For today's release, I bring you the "Reaching Fog Woods" map which was for the Misty Woods. This one is a lot more dramatized than my previous Misty Woods as I feel mood is important to capture when setting up a fight. Perhaps your players have to venture deeper into the woods to a place where no one dare to venture.

This will be a good map to add to your generic encounter arsenal for encounters throughout your campaign! And I'm building quite the collection of generic maps for you to use as well. Don't worry, there will be more road, bridge, river, and woods maps in different flavors! I also added a bit more flavor for the rain versions of the maps, including ripples along the ground and water pouring off the trees.  

For my patrons, this map comes in the following variants:

• Grid / Gridless
• 4k / 8k
• With and without the Ravens 
• Clean Version (4k, 8k, gridded and without ravens) 
• Day / Night
• Webp files of all versions along with a Foundry sizing guide 

Next up, I'll be working on the Interactive Tome of Strahd, Chapter 5, a new map for a Pyram King encounter which involves re-doing one of my oldest maps, and the Burgomaster's Mansion / Garden in Berez. Stay tuned!

Cheers,

DM Andy
