Very sweet maps.

As a Story Hour writer, I know how good it is to get feedback, so I thought I'd drop a note to mention how much I appreciate this thread. There have been some great maps here.

On the whole, I think your 'manufactured environment' (buildings etc) are more useful than the 'natural environment' (just plain caves) as the latter are a bit sparse of detail. When you mix the two it works really well, though (like in the Sea Caves).

Have you considered addign a bit more to the cave systems? Shafts, pits, contour lines, areas of rough ground, things like that?

And once again - thanks for the maps

I'm always on the lookout for maps, because they always take me so long to create and they rarely turn out good. These are great. Thanks for sharing them.

I did consider it, but I decided small stuff like that could be added by DMs who want to use the map. It does give the DM more work, but it also gives the DM more freedom on how they want the cave system to look like.

However, I do plan on working on some multi-level cave systems (where passages and caverns overlap each other), I just haven't got to them yet.
