Added 2024-02-12 10:07:36 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
Time for a preview!
Next month's MotM is here - a huge temple in a volcanic landscape!
The Variants are planned for this - Shadow/Darkness, Spider Nest & Bones.
Alt-Version
We'd like to hear your suggestions for an Alt-Version of this map. How could we modify or reskin it to make it into something new? What else could be here? What different environment?
Put your ideas in the comments and we'll pick our favourites to go into a poll
Thanks!

DROW PLEASE! Haha but yeah I am begging for more underdark content. I still advocate hard for a whole drow city setting. Maybe if we beg enough, it will happen lol.

2024-02-14 14:21:01 +0000 UTCWhat about a RoC vibe ? An old temple of a forgotten god lost in a mutated, abandoned land with unsane trees and plants outside and roots making their way inside eating at the walls. Maybe melted rocks that take half-formed shapes of daemons or victims. Lit by ethereal torches that should have died aeons ago but are still lit by some foul magic. A stained alter in the center of the dais and maybe a eightfold star somewhere ?

2024-02-13 01:48:24 +0000 UTCI would love an Underdark Stronghold, for some Drow Queen. We need more Underdark themed locations for sure!

2024-02-13 01:09:32 +0000 UTCA couple of possibilities: 1. take out the walls and doors so that it's just a series of linked platforms floating in the clouds or on the Ethereal/Astral plane. 2. instead of a chasm with lava beneath, the entry hall has a wall of energy, radiance, fog, or whatever that the adventurers must find a way through to get to the other side. Maybe the topmost room is the generator that powers the barrier.

2024-02-12 20:21:51 +0000 UTCI second this. I'd love a "before" version. I love it when you can modify a location in some way.

2024-02-12 15:21:24 +0000 UTCSome sort of Manna Temple floating in the Ethereal Sea

2024-02-12 15:19:49 +0000 UTCThis might sound mundane, but I was looking through maps on Heroic Maps and I didn't find many maps for mundane locations for a game I was running. Like a civic building such as a "Town Hall" or what not. Court house. Etc etc. Something this shape could fit that.

2024-02-12 14:39:23 +0000 UTCA ruined cloud giant temple, still floating high in the sky - but one wrong step and it's a loooooong way down!
