Has anybody seen this incredible apparently ongoing underdark map on the Paratime Design website?

Dyson Logos is usually the go to name on free maps to use (deservedly), but Paratime is no slouch. I don't hear a lot of people talking about his(?) maps.

The Halls of Lost Heroes by Dyson Logos

This old tomb in the Ghost Hills Range was long ago buried when the main entrance collapsed. In more recent times, the side of the hill has slid away in a series of small landslides that breached one of the tombs. From there, the portal to the tomb was broken open, and the entire complex was opened to invaders and treasure hunters. The structures on the right were the mausoleum, with grand pillared halls, raised daises for sarcophagi, and a grand dais in the largest room where the body of some major chieftain or noble was laid to rest. South of (and below) the circular tomb that has become the entrance to the halls are the deeper sepulchres – and finally a very well-looted and slowly collapsing treasure chamber at the bottom. Bringing adventurers to this site are the many inscriptions on the walls and crypts – many have survived the ages and the depredations of treasure hunters and contain notes on lineages and land ownership and a lot of other boring stuff (“Seriously, tax laws? This guy was sealed in a tomb decorated with TAX LAWS? No wonder he’s dead!”) – but in the mix are nonsense words and odd references to names of people or items – command words for lost artifacts, passwords for magical seals, and perhaps even the true names of ancient spirits and demons enslaved to the mountain tribes.

I've made another dungeon map for any ttrpg needs. I'm experimenting with the outer details Abit cause hatching is a pain. But I'm also unsure about this one tbh

Hidden below the ruins of Blacktooth Tower is a corrupted spring and it's guardian, a tangled mass of animated roots, fed by the necromantic taint that poisons the very ground

So, yesterday when I reblogged this tutorial post on how to draw dungeon maps like Dyson Logos, I got excited and kind of really wanted to try it? And I figured I might attempt a map for my Temple of Nuissas, because why not?

The results:

Key as follows:

Courtyard

Entrance

Antechamber

Font

Temple Guardian Lairs

Hall of Rest

Nave

Stairs to Inner Sanctum

Long Gallery

Hall of Memory

Dark Lake

Gathering Chamber

Private (Hidden) Chambers

Several of these were added while making the map, just to add individual points of interest. The Long Gallery is to add more room for pilgrims to carve their marks in the Labyrinth, the Hall of Memories is for people to leave objects instead of carvings, the Hall of Rest has some pallets for pilgrims to lie down, the Dark Lake is an echo of the pools along the Dark Road and a habitat for cave fish, the Gathering Point is simply a wider space within the Labyrinth for pilgrims to gather outside the Nave, and the Hidden Chambers are to allow groups of pilgrims some privacy if they choose.

I also added two areas for the Courtyard Guardians to lair/rest, 5a and 5b, with ledges overlooking the courtyard outside.

Everything past the Antechamber that isn’t the Nave or the Inner Sanctum is part of the Labyrinth. I ... I did want a more labyrinthy labyrinth, initially, but this is as twisty as I can manage on my first attempt at a map in years.

One point from the tutorial that I will double emphasise, they say to make the walls extra thick so the crosshatching doesn’t overwhelm them. Take that advice. This was a very confusing thing to look at before I put the extra weight on the passage walls.

This whole thing took me a good few hours, and my wrist kind of hates me right now, but I think it came out well.

It’s been years since I made a map. I’ve missed it.
