The amazing @valterink.bsky.social made a color version of the map for Shadow Quest. It really makes some of the features pop
If you're interested in play-by-post with modified Shadowdark rules in a world inspired by Dragon Warrior (Dragon Quest) let me know. #dragonquest #shadowdark #ttrpg

#OldMapWednesday In my recent vacation to Netherlands I learned that Manhattan used to be a Dutch colony known by the name of New Amsterdam 🤯(to no surprise for americans, I imagine). This is the earliest map, called the "The Castello Plan", by Jacques Cortelyou ~1660.

Had a blast creating the map for this project!
I'm developing a play-by-post game called Shadow Quest. It's based on #DragonWarrior ( #DragonQuest in Japan) for the NES and will utilize a modified version of the #Shadowdark #TTRPG rule set. If you're interested in keeping up with this or want to participate in development discussions reply below

My Alefgard map is done! This incredible map (and my biggest one yet) was made possible because of the commission by Nathan Laws. This is a private use commission for his Shadowdark Campaign World 😁

Sí, el arte es una expresión de tu individualidad.
Pero si quieres vivir del arte y no morir en la pobreza como Van Gogh, tienes que desapegarte de esa idea.
Para poder vivir del arte, tu obra tiene resolver el problema de alguien dispuesto a pagarte por la solución que ofreces.

You wake up from 100 year sleep and run straight north to the Bird People city. Save them from their blight and run straight to Eldin. This is how your Sheikah Slate map looks like right now.
