Hey everyone,

Happy New Years and a belated Merry X’mas to you all! You all have been so supportive of the work I’ve been doing this entire year, and at this time of year I feel especially grateful.

With the map of December, we have a narrative continuation from a couple of maps. Your players might have first come across the technomancer zealots from the Japanese Garden, then followed his trail all the way to the Sewer Canal. If their investigations were successful they would have learned about an old and mysterious temple located deep in the sewers. This is where they come face to face with the Technomancer and his cultists.

The full map chain series of events (only a suggestion):

Sky Bridge - Koi Hotel - Japanese Garden - Sewers Canal - Sewers Temple

This is a rather large battle map (by my standards) and I spent the whole month working on it on and off between family X’mas gatherings. I haven’t had much of a break from drawing during 2022 and decided it was high time to take a breather, since I knew many of you would be away from your games as well. Thus I am only releasing one map this month and spent the majority of the time polishing this one till I was happy.

Note: Those of you who are new here, know that my Patreon model works on a Per Map basis. Meaning, Patreon only bills you when I release a map. It’s not a monthly subscription.

Now, let me walk you through the battle map variants.

Base Map & Temple Gates

The Temple Gates is a .PNG file with transparent properties that is designed to be an overlay, on top of the Base map. You do this in your favorite virtual tabletop software such as Foundry VTT, Fantasy Grounds Unity, Roll20, just to name a few.

The Technomancer & Technomancer Cultists

The players arrive to discover that the Technomancer’s body is badly damaged and mostly shrivelled up, preserved within a lotus flower looking glass tank with all sorts of cables protruding from it.

I have provided an optional map tile containing four cultists who are tethered directly to the Technomancer. The possible narratives are:

  • The Technomancer is attempting to transfer his consciousness back into human body form via the cultists, divided equally into four parts. This makes him harder to kill (decentralization baby).
  • The cultists are downloading some specific fragments of code from the Technomancer which will allow them to better carry out his ultimate plan.
  • The Technomancer is siphoning T cells from specific cultists to regrow his physical body after being badly damaged. This process is already near completion.

The Black Sphere (Closed, Open)

Okay I have to admit, I totally ripped this idea from the movie “Gantz”. One of my favorite modern-day cyberpunk movies.

A mysterious black metal sphere lies centrally on the temple floor. Alien looking glyphs eminate from the black surface. When the players touch the glyphs in the right order, there sphere opens up to reveal….

Over to you GM’s!

Let me know how you like this one guys. I’m going back into full production mode come January. I look forward to drawing even more epic battle maps for your cyberpunk and sci-fi campaigns in 2023!
