Iron Gate Monk Monastery
🕑 Added 2025-01-28 21:00:38 +0000 UTCClick here to get the map!
A winding path takes the party up to a fortified gate. Is it dilapidated brick, or brightly-painted? Are they visiting an old master, or answering a distress call? What sect lives here? Do they take kindly to guests?
Thoughts
Many optional secret exits & entrances are hidden in the mountain, and one secret flight of stairs connects the greenhouse to the hidden archives. Doors are excluded from these to preserve GM choice in which are used.
The carpeted room has a good vantage point for targeting bridge-crossers.
Troublemakers might descend down the mountain via the gentler slope leading to the courtyard!
There’s some odd crystals embedded in the cave walls. I wonder if those are valuable?
Contents
Iron Gate Monastery: A monastery built around an ancient seal.
Gateless Monastery: A simple courtyard variant in case the gate is unappealing.
River: A tremendous river flows through the canyon!
Hell: Oh dear. Maybe this place is populated by Oni. Or maybe it’s a fortress for good in the depths of the underworld?
Ritual: A glowing ritual using the gate!
Portal: I hope it was intentional to open that.
Starry Hole: It’s a pit to the Veins of the Earth! No, maybe it’s just a deep well.
Wrecked Monastery: A forlorn ruin in the mountains. I wouldn’t trust that old bridge if I were you.
Jade Garden: The respite of an old master.
Basement: Yeah, that’s right, there’s a basement.
Canopy Overlays: Built for VTT canopy usage!
Day/Night Variants: Wherever applicable!
All maps are provided with & without square grids in WEBP format. (Please note that while WEBP is compatible with all major VTTs, it may not be previewable in old Windows 10 photo viewers.)
In addition, a Foundry module with a compendium of pre-built scenes for major variants is provided!
Furthermore, full-color PDF files in both single-page and divided poster formats are provided for printing!
The divided poster PDFs are cut into US Letter-size pages; they have guidelines, sheet numbering, & a convenient sheet for sticking them together after you’ve printed them out, and have margins so that you don’t have to be pixel-perfect when cutting with your scissors.
The single-sheet PDFs are suitable for making high-quality prints via print shops & on large-scale printers.

Stunning! Can't wait for my players to finally make it to the top of the mountain and the Iron Gate!
