Jörðgarð Map of Week #206 - Weathercrown Dungeon

[Mark Oliva]

The 206th Map of the Week shows the small underground dungeon beneath the ruins of the Æsir village of Weathercrown superimposed upon the surface terrain. The ruler is the (undead) draug Baron Haukvaldur. The dungeon is essential, because it shields the baron's draugs (undead) from daylight. The plans are from the Jörðgarð (TM) adventure "Too Many Clues".

Key to the Dungeon Plan:

Ground Floor:

1. South Entrance

2.-3. Passages

4. Unlocked Door and Passage

5. Storage Chamber with Supply Shelves and Barrels

6. Wall Niche occupied by an orc guard.

7. Unlocked Door and Passage

8. 12 cells where prisoners can be held

9. Long Passage

10. Orc Lair

11. Ogres' Chamber

12. Draug (undead) warriors' lair

13. Baron Haukvaldur's Tower (mapped separately next week)

You can get the dungeon plan in two versions:

1. The Fractal Mapper (TM) 8 version in FMP format, fully editable (24.5 MB) from the Jörðgarð website.

2. As a JPG flat map of 3000 x 1720 Pixels (2.3 MB), available above.

Both versions are released for personal and commercial use under the Open Game License Version 1.0a, which you can read on the Jörðgarð website at:

I am amazed by the sheer number of maps. I have my own similar project which is 111 maps in 111 days. Do these maps (made in fractal terrain?) consist of vector graphics or raster graphics or both?

Do these maps (made in fractal terrain?) consist of vector graphics or raster graphics or both?

The maps - all made with Fractal Mapper™ 8 - are 99.9% raster graphics (.png and .jpg). A very few things, above all the tiny symbols for villages and other locations on the overland maps and the compass rose, are vector graphics.
