Wachterhaus v2.0 - Interior | 30x20 (Patreon)

Update Oct 28th, 2025: Hey Everyone! My good friend over at Caleb is Drawing has generously created a portrait of the late Lord Nikolai Wachter for me to use with my Wachterhaus map. I've already used his portraits of Lady Fiona Wachter and Stella Wachter, and now both Lord and Lady of the Wachterhaus are properly represented with this updated portrait!

I've updated the .zip files to contain these updated interior maps with the new portraits, but if you're looking for this stellar artwork to use as a handout, head on over to Caleb's page, where he'll be posting this up soon (as well as tons of other incredible NPC portraits & handouts he's done). Additionally, we'll be working on updating the Foundry module to include these new updates as well as including the "Reloaded" version with the Levels version. Stay tuned for that soon!

Hello everyone, and happy New Release Monday! Today, I am launching part II of the Wachterhaus (The Interior). In case you missed it, you can find Part I (Exterior) here.

Additionally, this release also covers the changes outlined in DragnaCarta's CoS: Reloaded guide, found here, as well as the standard book version.

Also, I want to give a special shoutout to "Caleb is Drawing" for allowing me to use his amazing artwork for the portraits featured around the house. You can follow his Patreon here, where you will find some incredible NPC artwork (with a focus on CoS NPCs).

This map features three levels:

1st Floor

2nd Floor

Standard Version

Reloaded Version (Stella's room is restored)

Cellar

Standard Version

Reloaded Version (no beds + writing on the walls)

Empty Version (So you can add your own stuff to the cellar if you'd like)

1st Floor

I kept the layout mostly the same as outlined in the module, but I wanted the manor to feel old and opulent, despite its exterior being sagging and overgrown. I used purple as the core color scheme throughout the house for the wallpaper and upholstery.

I also added a latrine near the dining room above the secret staircase (Finally, the Wachterhaus family can use the bathroom!)

2nd Floor

For the 2nd floor, the most notable changes I made are that I added another latrine to the top of the stairs, as well as a bathroom to the south. I moved the supply closet to be connected with the bathroom as I felt this better used the space, and the layout flowed much better. This gives the family a private latrine/bathroom as well as a guest latrine below (there are outhouses outside for the staff).

Additionally, I decided to omit the dead body in Fiona's room. I know there are a good number of DMs who move, remove, or otherwise make changes to the dead body, so I figured if you wanted to add this, you could use a token to represent Fiona's husband.

Lastly, the "Reloaded" version makes changes to Stella's room from the version outlined in the module to a re-done version of the room as detailed in the Reloaded guide.

Cellar

I made the cellar in three different versions. The "Reloaded" version removes the beds and makes the cellar feel more like a storage space. In the hidden room, there is writing on the wall as outlined in the Reloaded guide.

I also made an empty version since I know a lot of DMs make changes to the cellar layout and add different things. This way, you can use your own array of VTT assets to make it how you see fit.

Phew! Manor maps always take a good chunk of time, but I do LOVE building them. Adding all the little details and getting to look at all sorts of historical homes as ref images excites me so much! I really hope you have enjoyed my version of the Wachterhaus and even if you're not using it for CoS, it makes for a great Gothic Manor map. Next up, I'll be presenting something a little new: an opulent bathhouse within the city of Lothburgh! After this, I'll be working on some extra spooky maps as we lead into the best month of the year (October!). Thank you all for your continued support.

Cheers friends,

DM Andy
