Champion Tier - Argynvostholt - Floors 1 & 2 - 60x60

Hey everyone and happy Release Monday!

Today I bring you the first part in the two part release of; Argyvostholt! I've put a lot of love and care into capturing the essence of the fallen Knights of the Silver dragon and I hope I do their cold, dead hearts justice with this release. 

This map was created on a 60x60 grid to give your players plenty of space to move around the outskirts of this fallen keep. Dying leaves lie in rot on the ground while the spindly branches scrap across the vine covered, weathered stone. Dragon iconography is riddled throughout this building and the pink marble floors of the once ballroom remind your players of better days. Some remnants of magic still remain but the illuminated magic light of the dining hall only shows the true decay of the stagnant puddle of rain water leaking from the ceiling above. The chapel, once a place of supplication, now lies in ruin and no longer offers peace. Your players might spot the dug up graves from the mist covered graveyard while they feel someone is peering at them from above. 

I wanted to add a lot of unique elements to the mood and feel of this location and I tried to add as much details as I can while visually showing the history of this long forgotten keep. 

For my Champion Tier patrons, I've created the following variants of this map release:

I will be finishing the second half of this release for the upper floors. I normally release everything at once, but for a location as large and detailed as this one, I wanted to split this up into chunks. I will do the same approach with Castle Ravenloft (of which we are almost there!). 

After Argyvostholt is completed, I'll be working on some new content for Pyram King for Berez; A Bullywug village, and working on the next chapter of The Interactive Tome of Strahd. Stay tuned for more info, sneak peeks and map releases!

Cheers, 

DM Andy

I'm just finishing walling for Encounterplus, your Argynvostholt maps are absolutely gorgeous Andy !

JM Tixu78

Thank you so much!! I've found that your players will notice more details when exploring room by room :) Can't wait to release the next two levels!

Andy D'Amato

Absolutely incredible level of detail. Thank you so much, DM Andy! I'm looking forward to my players exploring the maps

Patrick Herr

Stall, stall it haha. A few well placed teaser encounters should buy you a couple of weeks ^^

Dungeon of Terra

Incredible timing, my players are in Vallaki at the moment, but they heard of of Argynvostholt and the Fighter as a backstory tie-in with the Silver Dragon Order. Hopefully, the second part will be available before they reach it.

DruidOfStorm

Thank you so much!! Also, thanks for the callout. I've fixed that error and re-uploaded the correct files. I appreciate the second set of eyes!

Andy D'Amato

Omg thank you! Ben's stuff is pure gold so this is a huge compliment for me! Glad the mood of the map resonated with you :)

Andy D'Amato

Thank you!! I am personally planning on running a dragon encounter here and a huge fight so the area around the keep was important to have. Glad you like it!

Andy D'Amato

Yeah, I can slate in a restored version for a future release. Maybe I'll take a break with that version while I'm working on the Castle maps :)

Andy D'Amato

Great stuff yet again! One note though: the 8k 1st Floor Crypt Roof Clean Gridded & NoGrid are misidentified (they're just swapped). Haven't checked the 4k versions.

Einjuden

Damn Andy!! The MOOD in this one. I love it. I have Beneos' map prepped for this, but I'm 100% using yours. This is so dark. Love it.

Chuck

Also the fact you have made it big enough for a potential battle to occur around it is just a chef's kiss finish to it ^^

Dungeon of Terra

That is amazing dude. Really looking forward to the second half. Would you be able to maybe do one of the players go nuts and particularly repair it?
