Hey everyone and happy New Release Monday! Today I'm very excited to share with you the Main Floor of Castle Ravenloft! I really enjoyed working on this map and adding tons of detail room to room. This map I scaled down from the exterior map so that I can add more detail to this map which I felt it deserved. 

Castle Ravenloft is such an iconic location in D&D past and present and I wanted to give this everything I had! Your party will see the beautifully ornate front door while they walk into the foyer with dragon statues staring down at them. I wanted the main stairwell to be iconic and I imagine either Strahd himself or Rahadin coming down the candlelit, crimson stairs with their footsteps echoing through the hall. 

You'll noticed I added a slight reflective glow on the suits of armor and along the dirty marble flooring. As your party is invited to dinner, they can dry off from the pouring rain near the roaring fireplace (I know this is not in the module but this room just needs a fireplace!) and listen to Strahd play haunting music that echoes through the halls. As your party explores they will find rubble strewn archer posts, most of the mirrors collected from the castle and web-infested hallways with skittering shadows lurking about. 

Finally, the desecrated chapel lies in ruins and the pain in sorrow of this place is seeped into its tall walls and boarded up windows. Beams of faint light shine through cracks in the woods illuminated treasures held within. But as the sound of the front doors slamming shut echo through the castle, will your party be able to escape alive? 

As mentioned above, I scaled this map down to 50x40 from the exterior map so that I can add more detail to it. I did include a bit of the exterior in the event your party might be snooping around the outside or they were just delivered by the black carriage. 

Additionally, as requested, I made a version with slightly less rubble (removed most of the broken boards, stone, and webbing) along with the standard variants as detailed below. 

As always, for my Champion Tier patrons this map is available in the following variants: 

4k / 8k

Gridded / NoGrid

Day / Night

Rain

Clean (No fog or lights)

Less clutter (not all clutter is removed but most of the broken stone, wood, and webbing is removed) 

Webp in both 4k & 8k with a VTT sizing guide 

I have a lot of projects on the backburner since the move but now that my wife and I are getting settled into our new place, I'll be able to get back on schedule. These are all maps I have in the workshop (in no particular order):

Next Lunch Break Heroes adventure 

A small river map for Berez with a log bridge (and a broken bridge variant) 

A small farmstead for generic use around Barovia 

Chapter 9 of the Interactive Tome of Strahd (I wanted to complete both the exterior and main floor maps of Ravenloft and I will work on combining both maps together for use for the scenario outlined) 

And of course, the next map for Ravenloft; the Court of the Count

So there you have it! Lots of projects on the docket but I'm looking forward to the next release and of course I'll share with you all on Sneak Peek Thursday! 

As always, I appreciate all of your support and engagement and I'm hoping I was able to do Castle Ravenloft the justice it deserves! 

Cheers,

DM Andy

So I love the Map, But arent the squares supposed to be 10 feet each? This makes some of the items in the rooms a little off. there is some HUGE tables, desks etc,.... and one Enormous turkey on the table.

Horváth Gábor

You’re the master of Ravenloft Andy !

David Holden

So good. Can’t wait to see how Pyram King packs this one up too! Great work.

Dungeon of Terra

Really looking forward to making this multilevel

Brian Adamson

This is brilliant. One gets a feel for the entire space and easily maneuverable for DM and players. And with stackable levels, perfect. Well done!

This is amazing. I started using your maps as we began Curse of Strahd and they're getting to step foot in the castle for the first time, so this came at the perfect time for my party to get a feel for the castle!

Pyram King

This is amazing - I love both with and without clutter - so hard to choose. Amazing...

Tyberius

Love it! just in time as well the party is just on their way for dinner!

Ernie Jones

Any chance you could do a version of the pews not being destroyed for use in the Wedding at Ravenloft Module from DMs Guild? Lady Wachter might get a bit huffy if she has to sit on a broken down one. haha

Myst

I can't express how much your maps have helped my campaign Andy! They're so good for creating some instant immersion. Amazing!
