Illustrated by Moreno Paissan
Hey guys!
I've worked with artist Moreno Paissan on some other maps, so when I thought about creating a high-level version of Faerûn for an interactive map, he was my first choice.
This beautifully hand-illustrated world map shows a large section of Faerûn, a major continent in the Forgotten Realms world. It represents a variety of well-known locations, such as Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter, Icewind Dale & Ten Towns and many more.
Many of these locations may be familiar from adventure modules such as Storm King's Thunder, Lost Mine of Phandelver, Rime of the Frostmaiden and more, making it a great map to use for something interactive. In requesting the map, I had some options for requesting well-known characters along the frame.
Here are the ones that I'd chosen:
Tiamat
Drizzt & Guenhwyvar
Artemis Entreri
Bahamut
Szass Tam
...and Elminster himself.
In addition, there are many creatures scattered about the map, and while many of them are potentially indicative of the kind of creature that may roam those general areas, some of them are more specific to that region, like in Baldur's Gate:
My plan, besides providing an awesome version of this map to you guys, is to create an Interactive Map of this area. Similar to the Phandalin Interactive Map I had created earlier, we will start marking major locations with artwork, basic information, famous NPC's that may reside in those locations and (eventually) the ability to zoom in on those locations for which there are maps (i.e. Phandalin, Triboar, Leilon, Ironslag, etc...).
I hope you enjoy the map, and I'm looking forward to providing more fun ways to navigate the world as a whole for those people basing their campaigns in the area.
If there are other known playing areas that you'd love to see represented in this style, let me know, and I can see about doing the same in the future!
