Here is the political and heraldic map of Raelmor showing the Duchies and baronies in the country.

Dolvor used to part of Raelmor and was part of the Sylvar lands until the Mother of all Dragons, Vishtak, took it for her home (here there be dragons!).

Another similar problem to using a published game world is running a published adventure, especially these days. You have to assume at least 1 person (if not everyone) has read the adventure or knows something about it.

My advice, mix it up. Change names, add plots/sub-plots, max up some monsters, min down others. Add new elements in the adventure. I'll be running Saltmarsh, but I'm already working on making it a Lovecraftian Horror (or at least themes of this) so there will be foreshadowing from the start of evil fish-men and their ancient masters out of time, in their cyclopean city beneath the waves.

I'm thinking Dagon if anyone is familiar with that story. If not I recommend reading it, it's a classic Lovecraft tale.

Thanks Monsen, I agree about running your own world. This map just shows the major cities and I thought it was getting clogged up with names as it so I left the towns and villages off it.

This map is just a small section of Raelmor, this map covers an area of 88,000 square miles. It was taken from a larger map that I took a screen shot of and than traced this map in CC3+, so I have all of Raelmor mapped and the huge continent it is a part of mapped as well. I have yet to upload those maps here. If they want to explore further it won't be a problem other than when they get back home utter devastation will have occurred to Saltmarsh and the environs because they weren't there to stop it.

In my game, ignoring the DM's adventures is OK but it will have dire far reaching consequences.

Hi everyone,

I'm going to be Dm'ing a game on roll20 soon, The Ghosts of Saltmarsh, but I can't decide which world to set it in. I don't really like Greyhawk or the Forgotten Realms so I was thinking of setting it in my own campaign world.

If I was to set it there this is the map I would use. This is a map of the larger area. The Saltmarsh area would be along the northern coast of the Naur sea and fills an area only 4% of this map. Please critique it.

After browsing the recent new entries here, I got inspired by Jim's map of The Purple Towns.

So I produced this. I was meaning to do this for a while and to use a a different style to Mike Schley's.

The map is taken from 'Stormbringer', and once again with these maps from novels, I have to think that a child did it.
