The Stygian City 16, 17 & 18: The Myconid Village
🕑 Added 2024-10-26 22:43:04 +0000 UTCThe next batch of floors in the Stygian City includes a myconid village on the 16th level, an ancient oracle on the 17th and a center for magical research on the 18th. The next three floors will be the last and will include the thing that lies at the bottom of the pit: Ghanya. I'm also going to draw three or four alternate bottom levels for patrons, but that's it for the canonical Stygian City.
To a large extent, I've been writing the lore of this place around building players up for a horrifying revelation when they reach the bottom and discover that people dug this giant hole and built a city around it so they could feed themselves to a monster. So I've really been looking forward to drawing the freakish monstrosity at the bottom of the pit and I'll be doing that before long.
First, though, I'll be drawing a map of a village carved into the sides of a river canyon with windows and balconies dotting the rock faces and rope bridges strung between the sides. It looks cool in my head, which usually means it'll make a good map.
Anyway, if you've got any questions or thoughts about the map, let me know.
