Yup! They are going to get a ship as a reward for defeating a big bad that is coming up soon! That is, unless they do something really stupid, which is not completely out of realm of possibility lol.

Cze and Peku

That's cool! How will they get there? Do they have a ship? Curious how they'll be stopping the apocalypse!

I cannot wait to use this in my campaign. I already have an idea how: my players are going to encounter this floating island in the middle of the sea on their way to stop the apocalypse.

Thanks Aaron! We're trying to improve our map quality each week and put our more novel and interesting themes for the variations. We've had lots of desert and shadowland requests recently, so we'll be attempting those soon.

Aaron bateson

Seriously this is phenomenal work. Great things ahead of you if you can keep up this quality and consistency, well done!

Jessie Backoff

Haha that's a complicated answer, but I'll try and keep it concise. The archdruid was kidnapped and is being subdued using the nectar from a flower. It's difficult to keep someone that powerful from escaping, so the poison has trapped her in her own mind. But her insanity is manifesting into the radius around her, causing massive overgrowths and creatures to spawn. The party will be able to cross into her mind though one of those spawn points. (After they get past whatever comes out, of course).

Cze and Peku

Glad to know the council variant is just what you needed Jessie. How are your players getting into the mind of the archdruid? Sounds like a great plot. Good way to inform your players about the world too, you can do world building through the memories you explore.

Cze and Peku

Thanks for the kind words Joshua. I don't really know what to say but I really appreciate it. We thought the map was lacking a bit and decided to stay awake into the morning to make the titan octopus variation before posting. I tell you, hearing responses like this really makes it feel worth it. :)

Cze and Peku

Thanks Eckhart, pleased to hear that. I'm thinking of some megadungeon now where you could link this up to 8 separate wizard towers. That'd be a campaign in and of itself.

Jessie Backoff

That's a solid idea, I like it!

Peter Holthaus

Make the key a branch and they have to find the leaves, to better fit the druid theme?

Jessie Backoff

These are beautiful, and I LOVE the Council variant. My players are going to encounter an archdruid who has been imprisoned in her own mind and will be going in after her. There are gateways that lead to different memories where they will have to find fragments of a key to bring her back. That map is going to be perfect for that.

This is...absolutely amazing. You guys are so talented. I pledge to several different map content creators, but you always leave me speechless with your creativity and sheer amount of content you provide to your backers.
