Following the echoing rhythm, you turn a corner and a new sound greets you, the sound of metal skipping across metal as a sign creaks it’s welcome to you. The building is rough cut stone bricks of varying shades of greys, blues, and deep reds. The roof has a sharp pitch and smoke bellow...
The Blooming Bounty Apothecary
As you walk along the street, two huge oak trees reach their branches across the path several feet above your head; between them is a purple two-story building with green shutters with a stone path leading you to the small porch. As you approach, a calico cat stands and stretches on the railing it had been sleeping on then makes a “brrrrt” sound as it hops down and walks to the door, clearly intending to dart inside once given access. As you ...

Did I just realize I could upload several maps to a single post?
Yes, yes I did. For some reason, it didn't even occur to me to just combine all the available maps, PDFs, illustrations, fonts, brushes, etc. to their own master post. Now that I have, I realized this will go MUCH quicker!Moving forward, everything will be added to their own "master post" that will be update whenever I add something new to it (with a few exceptions). That means, I'll make a single post for all the fonts and should...

Kartografrs Sifr (Cartographer's Code)
This is not your average alphabet exchange code. Instead, each symbol represents a sound and words are written phonetically; such as the name "kartografrs sifr" to read "cartographer's cypher". This means that your players will not be able to decipher the code without the key. I also made a lexicon of the most commonly used words in cartography and assign them all symbols akin to the font. They are great for adding a simple on...
