Commercial License - The Dungeon Archive (Patreon)

Last update: June 20, 2025

We are honored that creators are interested in using our content. That’s why we have created this Commercial License, in a very non-restrictive way.

Application of the license

If you want to use any of our content for your adventures, modules or any other commercial material, you must comply with this license.
To use the content from a tier, you must have an active subscription to that tier on The Dungeon Archive Patreon.
If you end your patronage, the content already published can stay published and be sold, but no new content can be added to it until you subscribe again.

Applicable content

Included in this license are:

• Maps (such as Battlemaps, World Maps, Modular Maps and Animated Maps)

• Tokens and Animated Tokens

• Characters Illustrations

• Scene Illustrations

Excluded from this license are:

• Audio files (such as Music and Sounds)

• Asset Packs

• Adventures and Guides

• Tools (like Scripts and Macros)

• Foundry VTT Modules (please contact us)

• Content made by or in collaboration with another creator.

How to use our content

Don’t edit, recolor or distort the content in any way.
Add a substantial amount of work and extra value to each piece. For example, at least 1000 words per Battlemap.

Attribution

To use any of our content, you must include both:

• Our name in the credits with a clear title like: “Battlemaps by The Dungeon Archive”, “Animated Tokens by The Dungeon Archive”, etc. And a link to our Patreon: www.patreon.com/TheDungeonArchive. If the content is published in a marketplace, the same should be included in the description box.

• A watermarked version of the content or a clearly visible disclaimer text next to the content with a link to our Patreon www.patreon.com/TheDungeonArchive.

  Watermarks should be clearly visible and placed in one of the bottom corners, with a minimum size for it to be clearly readable (at least 25% the width of the image being used). Watermarks in both black and white can be downloaded at the bottom of this post.

Streaming

For streaming online content like on Twitch, YouTube or similar platforms:

• You may use the non-watermarked version of the content.

• You must include credits in the description, as in the rules under Attribution. A shoutout in the video is also appreciated.

• You do not need to notify us of your stream, but we would love to see what you create.

• You can use the Foundry VTT Modules.

Modular Maps

You can also use our “Modular Maps” or “Very Long Maps” to create your own scenarios, following the next rules, which may override the rules stated previously in this license:

• A minimum of 4 tiles must be seamlessly stitched together to form each map. It can be in any shape.

• Modular Maps should only be connected to another tile or map that is intended to match seamlessly by design.

• If you are opting for the watermark option instead of the text box option for crediting us, place it in the bottom right corner of the result map. The width of the watermark should be at least 50% of the tile width it’s placed on.

Restrictions

• You may not use our content for any merchandise or promotional products or as a logo or trademark.

• You may not resell or sublicense our content to a third party.

• You may not use our content in an offensive or illegal way, nor use it within material that contains any of that. Nor within content that encourages homophobia, racism, etc.

• None of our content can be used for minting NFTs or to train any form of AI. Neither can it be used in any product that includes or uses any kind of AI in any stage of development of the product.

If you need a different license for your product or a special agreement, or if you have any questions, feedback or suggestions, send us a message at contact@thedungeonarchive.com.
