Flourishing stalks tower overhead along a bamboo forest path. What lies in wait down this path? A worn-down shrine? Troublesome rabbits? A river of gore? Let’s hope it’s not that last one. This is the inaugural map for DnDungeon Maps! That is, it’s the first I created chronologically. My players had an encounter a few months ago in a dense thicket like this and I would have killed to have this map around. But I am no time-traveler. Hopefully I got here in time for you, though. Thoughts The bamboo whispers to passerbys the spoken words of past travelers. Two ghostly warriors make havoc without regard for the living unlucky enough to be there for it. The ancient, inhuman caretaker has just lost her most important spiritual prisoner. Contents Shrine: A dilapidated old shrine in a dense bamboo forest. Path: A winding path through the forest, dotted with roadside shrines, lanterns, and idols. River: A path that crosses a river, with or without bridge. Blood River: A flow of gore crossing a hellishly-lit landscape, with or without bridge. What is this, the setting of a nightmare? A nasty thorn-filled hole in Avernus? Shrine Spiritual Confluence: A swirl of magic surrounds the shrine. Stream: A thin gravelly stream runs down where a path might otherwise be! Forest: A bamboo grove without the slightest hint of artificial structures, for characters who have absolutely gotten themselves lost, or who’ve encountered things in the middle of nowhere. Canopy Overlays: Built for VTT canopy usage! Day/Night Variants: Wherever applicable!
