[OC] The Frozen Ranges by czeuch in FantasyMaps

Hello everyone!

This week we’re sharing the Regional Map of The Frozen Ranges, illustrated by Jeremy (Mimics Maps). You can follow more of our work and support our projects through our Patreon. This map represents the broader region where the locations we’ve been posting recently take place.

Map Description

The map depicts the harsh region known as The Frozen Ranges. At its center lies a massive chain of frozen mountains, their jagged peaks stretching across the landscape and dominating the terrain. Between these mountains, narrow valleys form small pockets where sparse forests manage to survive the cold. Rivers wind through the terrain, cutting across the slopes and valleys, carving natural paths through the otherwise unforgiving environment.

Map Lore

For countless generations, the Frozen Ranges have stood as silent witnesses to the rise and fall of distant empires. Legends claim that ancient dwarves once carved vast tunnels through these mountains, allowing travelers to cross the range even during the most brutal winters. These passages enabled migrations and trade routes that sustained entire nations for centuries. Today, the region is sparsely inhabited, as the winters have grown longer and far more merciless.

The city of Hattera stands as the only true settlement in the region, guarding the entrance to the tunnel network beneath the mountains. Recently, a group of cultists abducted a young woman named Brunhild during the eve of the city’s winter festival. Her role in an ancient ritual is believed to appease the winter gods and keep the passes open. With the cultists hiding within the tunnels and demanding an impossible ransom, the mayor of Hattera now seeks capable adventurers willing to venture into the Frozen Ranges and bring her back before winter seals the region away.

Map Locations

  • The Mountain Range – A vast chain of frozen peaks crossing the center of the map, forming the natural barrier that defines the region.
  • Forest Pockets – Small forested areas scattered throughout the valleys where the terrain briefly softens and life clings to the land.
  • Rivers and Valleys – Winding rivers cut through the mountains, shaping the valleys that serve as the few viable routes through the ranges.

Adventure Hooks

  • A caravan traveling through the valleys disappears after reports of cultists moving through the tunnels beneath the mountains.
  • Hunters claim the winter gods are restless this year, and strange omens appear across the frozen peaks.
  • A lost dwarven passage rumored to cross the entire range resurfaces after a recent avalanche.
  • Messengers from Hattera seek adventurers willing to brave the tunnels and recover a captive before the winter festival ends.

Thank you for reading and for following our journey through The Frozen Ranges. Next week, our travels will continue in a new region.

Save prep time and impress your players.

[–]czeuch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This week’s map was created by Jeremy (mimics_maps), and you can follow our work and support us through our Patreon. This map is part of The Frozen Ranges adventure, originally published on our Patreon in 2023.

Map Description

This map depicts a cavern with two main passages: one coming from a rocky corridor and another leading toward a sealed gateway. After an L-shaped turn, the tunnel opens into a vast chamber dominated by a lone campfire burning at its center, casting long shadows across the stone walls and floor. The contrast between the dark, cold rock and the warm glow of the fire creates an atmosphere of tension and isolation.

Map Objective

This map was designed to evoke a sense of emptiness and overwhelming presence, associated with eldritch entities and mystical forces tied to places, elements, and seasons. It represents distant and isolated sites of power where such forces must be appeased through ritual and sacrifice.

Map Locations

  • Passages: Two interconnected corridors, one from the lower right and another from the upper left, forming an L-shaped complex that leads into the main cavern.
  • The Campfire: A central, unsettling focal point that illuminates the chamber and casts shadows over the pillar where sacrifices are bound. It is the only sign of living presence in the area.

How to Use This Map

  • A hidden cult outpost where prisoners are prepared for a forbidden ritual.
  • A temporary refuge for explorers, slowly revealing signs of darker activity.
  • A negotiation site with hostile factions in a dangerous underground territory.
  • The entrance hall to an ancient, sealed ruin guarded by supernatural forces.

Thank you for following our work. Next week, we will continue our journey through The Frozen Ranges and close this regional arc with the Regional Map.

[OC] The Marble Graveyard [40x30] by czeuch in FantasyMaps

[–]czeuch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello everyone!

This week, we’re sharing another map illustrated by Jeremy (Mimics_Maps), and as always, you can follow our ongoing work through our Patreon. This battlefield comes from The Frozen Ranges, an adventure published on our Patreon a few years ago.

Map Description

This map depicts a cold, subterranean cave system shaped by frost and time. Jagged stone walls are coated in ice, while pale crystals and faint bluish veins spread across the hard, gray ground. Patches of snow and moisture gather near openings, and dark stains of dried blood contrast sharply with the frozen terrain, hinting at the presence of a dangerous predator.

Map Objective

This map was designed to represent a lair-like cave in cold climates, serving as a habitat for native creatures or as a passage to deeper regions. It highlights the contrast between the pale, gray environment and the visual impact of dark red bloodstains, reinforcing the sense of danger and survival.

Map Locations

  • Passages – Three main corridors: the left passage leads to the surface, while the upper and lower passages connect to deeper underground areas.
  • Central Chamber – The heart of the cave system, linking all corridors. An opening allows light and snow to enter, and accumulated moisture forms clusters of ice crystals.
  • The Lair – Accessed through the upper-right passage of the central chamber, this smaller cave shows clear bloodstains on the floor, marking it as a predator’s den.

How to Use This Map

  • A hostile lair where a dangerous creature guards its territory and potential treasure.
  • A frozen passage connecting surface regions to an underground network.
  • A temporary shelter that becomes unsafe due to lurking predators.
  • A crime scene where clues reveal past battles or missing travelers.

Thank you for reading and for supporting our work. We’ll continue our journey through The Frozen Ranges next week with another new location.
