Hail Travelers

Happy New Year, hope your holidays were merry and warm! I'm excited to kickoff the year and keep moving on some of our long and short term projects. Thanks for sticking with me in 2024 and excited to have you all here for 2025.

But what's that...?

Do you hear that distant murmur of village life? As I sit down to write this, I can almost imagine the sound of lapping waves and the creak of wooden docks swaying with the tide. This month, we’re trading snowy landscapes for country charm!

Our theme is rural village, and we’re kicking things off with a serene fishing village nestled by the water. Expect weathered huts, bustling piers, and plenty of room for adventure—whether it’s a peaceful day by the shore or something more mysterious lurking beneath the surface. I can’t wait to share these new maps with you and see the stories they inspire!

Wayfarer — Foundry VTT

Spent the last month diving into V12, and I’m feeling pretty confident with the setups! Next up, I’ll be exploring some of the cool new features this version brings. I’ll keep you all posted when I dive into those. We’re so close to being fully up to date!

Animated Maps

We’ve officially started rolling out our animated maps and will be adding them to their respective posts as they go live. We’ll keep you updated on which maps have been enhanced with animations. Here’s what we released last month:

Winter Forest Path
Desolation Point
Ice Dungeon
Groundskeeper's Hut
Jungle Cenote

A public version of these animations will be available but to get access to all of the animated content you can pledge at the Trailblazer level to unlock everything.

Public Map Variant

Every month I pick one of my favorite map variants that is normally reserved for certain tiers , and release it to all patrons!

This month I chose the "Groundskeepers Hut - Aurora". This was a fun affect to create that i had never tried before, really happy how it turned out and glad to get it in front of your tables!
