Map of the Month - The Devil's Maw & Variants
🕑 Added 2025-05-06 12:15:38 +0000 UTCHi everyone,
Time for a new MotM! This time we've gone for an interesting landscape feature with lots of adventure potential!
The Devil's Maw is a deep, smoking hole in a hilly region - clearly an entrance to the underworld, or a place that something bad may emerge!
The variants are Hellmouth Caldera, Caldera Lake and Skullfire Shrine
These maps are available to everyone on a $5 and upwards tier, and you'll find links in your inbox, and VTT vault versions in the VTT vault...

How about a bubbling cauldron of something toxic: bubbling up and then spilling down the paths as a stream (and almost certainly poisoning the local river/lake/irrigation system)?

Imo the pathway could be interpretated of going down instead of up. If so, to the spectator, the hole would be a small icy lake. Actually the ice layer is the ceiling for a hidden white dragon lair.
