D&D General Turgenev's Friday Freebie Maps

That map style was directly inspired by the old Planet of the Apes TV show. Here's a screen capture from the second episode.

Here's the Monday Blues Map #187 map. This map continues from last week's map. This is the western half of the ground level map. Click to enlarge.



Here's how last week's and this week's maps fit together. Click to enlarge.



Map Details:
  • Grid Size: 42x62 10’ Squares or 84x124 5’ Squares (72 dpi); VTT Size: 1261x1611
  • The double white lines on the buildings' exteriors walls are windows. The towers of areas 8 and 19 have arrowslits.
  • Areas 1 and 11 have vegetation/trees. I'm picturing area 11 to be apple orchards (or any fruit bearing tree depending on the location's climate).
  • Area 2 is a wooden bridge.
  • Area 3 is the surrounding water (that is at a lower elevation than the land areas).
  • Outside area 4 (to the south), 13 a), and outside 13 b) are ladders to the upper level.
  • Areas 6, 8, 12 a), and 17 have trap doors in their ceilings. There are ladders (not shown on map) at these locations to allow access to the trap doors.
  • Areas 9 and 14 have wells.
  • Just north of area 10 are a series of hitch posts for horses.
  • There are ceremonial pillars at the front of the paths through area 11.
  • Area 13 a) is a stable. Area 13 b) is a small side building.

Mixmastershizz beat me to it.

I kind of want to hire someone to draw me a side view of these two islands. I'd probably put them on super tall cliffs, like 35-70m high cliffs, but without the stairway up.

Here's the October 17th 2025 Friday Freebie map. This week's map is the Upper Level 2/Rooftop level. Next week will be in the opposite direction - the dungeon level. Click to enlarge.
