Pre-Generated Fantasy Maps

A kingdom map titled Velmora, drawn entirely in black ink with fine hatching on cream paper and no colour, with a dotted border separating it from the Frosthold Marches, Karsten Reaches, Thaldor Wilds, Eastmark Kingdom and Southreach Principality. The canyon is Duskfall Canyon, a long, deep cliff-walled chasm that cuts diagonally across the whole kingdom, with waterfalls spilling into it and a bridge near Hearthwell. North of it, the chain of lakes runs west to east: Lake Aster, Lake Mirren, Lake Hallowmere, Lake Silwen and Lake Dusk, joined by a river that reaches the sea at Serpent's Reach. Caer Venn, Blackspire Keep, Eldenwatch and Suncrest are castles on hills, while towns such as Thornwick, Elmridge, Ravenford, Stonehollow, Graymire and Vellford sit along roads. Gloomwood Forest fills the southwest below the Ironspine Range. A two-headed sea serpent rears in The Velmoran Sea. The small legend lists castle, town, road and border, with a 60-mile scale bar. Velmora, Ravenford and Stonehollow are reused names.

A coastal region painted in soft watercolour on textured paper, viewed at a bird's-eye angle with mist rising from the valleys. The frozen north is The Pale Reach, 'Icefields Without End', with the Frostmere Glacier and Skaelen Tundra forming a wall of blue ice and snowy peaks along the top. The giant waterfall is Veyrfall, 'The World's Leap', a huge white cascade pouring off the cliff edge of The Highplateau into a cloud of spray above Mistwood. Its river winds south past Selwyn to the Harbour of Selwyn, while the Karsten Range and the Thornwood Wilds frame the west around Aelmere Lake and Ryndhall. The coast is properly rugged, with the Greymarsh Fens, Blacktide Harbour, Ivory Bay, the Morgrave Peninsula, Stormwell Bay, Cape Orlan's lighthouse and the Blightspine Peninsula, plus dozens of sea stacks. A long blue sea serpent coils through The Veridian Deep. A 100-league scale bar sits in the corner. Frostmere, Selwyn and the Shattered Isles are reused names.

An archipelago titled The Isles of Vaeloria, hand-drawn on aged parchment in muted sepia, olive and slate blue, with a leafy cartouche and dotted sea routes between dozens of islands. The ancient forest is the Elderwyn Wood, a dense forest of huge old trees covering most of the large northwestern island, with a giant tree and a ruined arch hidden at its heart. The farmland is the clear second theme: patchwork fields, windmills and villages surround Tarnhaven's harbour on the same island and fill Brackenmere and Morrow Isle to the east. Smaller islands include Stormhollow, Mirelth, Saltwick with its lighthouse, Highcrest's castle, Pinewatch, Kelmoor and the misty Greymist, with The Ember Keys smouldering in the south. The kraken is huge, wrapping its tentacles around a tall ship in The Deepwater in the lower right, while sea dragons lurk in the corners and a whale spouts near the Blacktide Isles. There is no scale bar, and Vaeloria and Stormhollow are reused names.

An archipelago titled The Sundered Isles, painted in a sun-faded palette of golden ochre and burnt sienna with dusty blue seas, its cartouche held by two mermaids beneath a sun face. The canyon is the Cleft of Stone on the island of Veyrath, a deep cliff-walled chasm with a waterfall that splits the island in two between Karthen Spire, Redmere and Mournwatch. The vineyards fill two islands: Tal Vinea is covered in neat terraced rows around San Fiora, and Sarnell has more terraces around Velan Keep and Oliveharbor. Other islands include the cliff-ringed Ochre Reach with Sunspine and Citrine, Morgrave's ruins, the Isle of Echoes, Brineholt, Stormhollow, Nerath Key and the volcanic Mount Ember beside Ashenholt. A sea serpent coils in The Ashen Strait, and a spiny sea beast rears in The Veiled Expanse, with sailing ships along dotted routes. Citrine is labelled twice, there is no scale bar, and Veyrath, Stormhollow and the Sundered Isles title are all reused from other maps here.

A frozen mountain realm painted in frost blue, white and silver, framed by four wind faces with captions such as Northwind 'Guides the Bold' and Southwind 'Dreams of Farther Seas'. The canyon is The Sunderdeep, 'Where the World is Broken', a vast ice-walled chasm slicing diagonally across the land with frozen waterfalls pouring into it and arched bridges spanning its ends. The sacred mountain is Mount Vaelith, 'The Silent Crown', a lone peak in the northeast crowned by a temple inside a ring of light. High valleys and passes link the realm: Kareth Pass 'The High Road' winds past Silverwatch and its bridge, Frostmere Vale lies among the Thornspine Range, and The Whiteflow river crosses the snowy Kelthar Woods and Morgrin Expanse. Nivora Reach, 'Gate of the Pale Sea', is a fortified harbour on The Azure Maw, where a huge kraken wraps a ship among icebergs. The scale runs to 100 leagues. Mount Vaelith and Frostmere are reused names.

Lands ring an inland sea called the Sea of Vaelorn, drawn entirely in black ink with fine hatching on cream paper and no colour. The fjords crown the north as the Fjords of Nyr, a row of steep peaks split by long inlets, with Nyrhold's castle on a central crag, Skelvard and Icegate beside the Brokken Sound. The Dragon Peaks fill the east, and the Dragon Lair is marked with a small dragon perched on a summit above Blackcove and Velthar. The kraken sits in the middle of the sea, wrapping its tentacles around a tall ship, while the Isle of Thorns, Serpent Isles and The Silent Isles dot the water. Around the shore lie the Kingdom of Eldermere with Lake Arannis, the Realm of Thornskar with Stonewraith Keep, Karth Vale with the walled city of Karth, and the Kingdom of Southreach with Thornbridge and The Red Bogs. A 300-mile scale bar sits in the corner. Eldermere, Oakridge, Stonehollow, Ravenspire and the Sea of Vaelorn are reused names.

An elven archipelago titled Isles of Vaerith, painted in deep blue and green with gold-leaf scrollwork in the corners and a gilded compass rose. The crater city is the centrepiece: Liorael, a gleaming white elven city of spires, domes and arched bridges set around a lake inside the huge Aelthar Crater, whose sheer walls are draped with waterfalls and topped by a smoking volcano on the northern rim. The steppes fill the large western island as the Thalen Steppes, open green grassland dotted with round tents and grazing herds along a winding river. Smaller islands include Eldoria, Caelwen, Syrall, Velyn, the Seren Islets, Kareth Isle and Mareth, many crowned with slender white towers and waterfalls. Small sailing ships cross the Nimrûn Sea. The scale bar is in kilometres, an anachronism, and Mareth, Kareth and Eldoria are reused names.

A cheerful storybook archipelago titled Veloria Isles, 'Shattered Shores, Brighter Tomorrows', bursting with green hills, red-roofed villages, castles and bright turquoise water inside a gilded border with a sun-faced compass rose. The canyon is Ravenspire Canyon, a deep cliff-walled gorge with waterfalls cutting through the large central island, crossed by an arched bridge near Tumblewick. The delta is the Glimmerfen Delta, where a river fans into dozens of channels and islets below a red-roofed castle town on Sunpetal Bay. Other islands include the snowy Isle of Thalwyn with its castle, Merrigold's town, the smoking volcano Cinderpeak, Stormharth's ruins, Brightmere's harbour, Larkhollow and Verdant Keep. The kraken is the centrepiece of the southern sea, a big purple octopus with a single golden eye wrapping a sailing ship. The scale runs to 50 leagues. Two southern labels, including the Starfall Keys, are garbled, and Veloria and Ravenspire are reused names.

A coastal region painted in soft watercolour on textured paper at a bird's-eye angle, with deep blue water and dozens of rocky islets. The sacred mountain is Mount Elyndor, 'The Sacred Peak', a lone snowy summit rising above the clouds in the northwest beside Eldernwood and Moonvale. The volcanic range is The Ashen Spires, a dark ridge of erupting cones across the north whose bright lava rivers run down past Emberwatch and Redrun toward Cinder Moor and Kaelgarr Pass. The coast is properly rugged, with the walled Harbour of Thalen at the head of Vaelor Bay, Caelwyn, Larkspur, Greywatch, Tidehollow, Mistral Point, Stormhook Head and Sable Ward, plus the Whispering Isles, the Serpent's Teeth and The Shattered Reefs. The kraken dominates the lower middle, wrapping its arms around a breaking ship with wreckage floating nearby. The legend lists five symbols, and the scale bar is in kilometres, an anachronism. Mount Elyndor, Silvermere, Thornridge and Stonehollow are reused names.

An island kingdom titled Kingdom of Veyrath, 'Steppes, Salt, Rivers, Peoples, One Land, Many Winds', drawn as an antique nautical chart with faded blue seas, depth soundings and rhumb lines, framed by four wind faces with captions such as Westwind 'Brings Distant Tales'.

The capital Veyrath sits on a river in the centre, with Port Velis, Suncliff Monastery, Ravenwood Forest, the Eldren Hills, Lyris Fields and the volcanic Kareth Peaks around it. A large whale breaches in the southwest and five dolphins leap in The Sapphire Deep. The scale runs to 150 leagues. Veyrath, Port Velis and Ravenwood are reused names.

A world map of four landmasses around The Azure Expanse, painted in loose watercolour with clouds drifting over the edges. The tropical coast fills the southwest as the Jungle of Oravel, dense palms, waterfalls and the smoking volcano Mount Tazul, with the turquoise Coral Reach beside it, a shallow lagoon of red and orange reefs around the port of Zanari. The steppes fill the northeast continent of Thalmyr as the Saren Steppes, open yellow grassland with dashed trade routes, grazing herds and clusters of nomad tents near Keshar Oasis. Vaeloria in the northwest has Silvermere lake, Caerlyn and Thornkeep, and Kharadun in the southeast has the Obsidian Wastes, the lava-streaked Ashen Peaks and The Weeping Marshes. Seven sailing ships, two sea serpents and a whirlpool fill the water. A parchment legend box titled Map of the Known Lands sits bottom left, as the prompt asked. There is no scale bar. Silvermere and Rivermere are reused names.

An archipelago titled Isles of Theryn, 'Lost Kingdoms, Shattered Roads, Enduring Wilds', drawn in a bright atlas style with green lowlands, tan hills and a gilded border set with trident, tree and seahorse medallions. The swamp fills the largest island as The Mire of Velisar, a maze of blue channels winding between hundreds of wooded hummocks, with Duskfen, Fenwatch Keep and Greywold Towers on its edges. The ruined roads appear as the Old Veyra Road, a dashed line that crosses Kareth past the Aurelian Ruins and picks up again on Caelond toward The Fallen Spire. Crumbling ruins dot nearly every island, from Sable Reach to Istren, and a Sunken Temple sits half-drowned off Veyra. Mount Thalor carries a height of 1,842. A legend lists ruined settlements, temples, towers and roads, and a sea serpent coils in the southeast corner. The scale bar runs to 150 kilometres and 100 miles, a modern unit. Kareth and Stormhollow are reused names.

A world map of five continents around The Azural Sea, painted in soft watercolour on cream paper with clouds feathering the edges.

An island kingdom titled Valdoren, Isle Kingdom, painted in a tabletop style with raised snowy peaks, dense tree clumps and crumbling stone ruins seen at an angle, inside a carved border with face medallions in the corners. The ruined road crosses the north as The Ashen Road, a pale track lined with broken arches and wall stubs linking the Ruins of Caldrith, Caer Neth and Duskfall Keep. Crumbling ruins dot the island almost everywhere, from The Overgrown Temple in Greenhollow to Eldren Spire, Sunscar Ruins and the red-rock fort of Kharzuul.

A mountain realm titled The Kingdom of Veyrath, painted in a bright storybook style with snowy peaks, green valleys, waterfalls and clusters of red-roofed towns and castles. The ring of mountains fills the centre, a closed circle of jagged peaks around the deep blue Lake Elowen, with a castle on an island in the middle and waterfalls pouring into the lake from all sides. The haunted dead forest fills the east as The Thornwold, black twisted trees under grey mist, a ruined dark tower and crows circling overhead. High valleys and passes include Briarpass, a road switchbacking up the cliffs, and The Silver Vale below Windhollow. Mount Veyra crowns the north beside the Frostpine Heights and Skywatch castle. Towns include Mossford, Greenhollow, Willowbrook with a windmill, the harbour of Redhaven and Tidewatch. Sailing ships ride the coast, and four tiny sea monsters swim in the Emerald Sea, the Azure Deep and the Shivering Sea. There is no scale bar. Veyrath, Elowen, Willowbrook and Greenhollow are reused names.

A kingdom map titled Kingdom of Veldoria, 'Lands Endure, People Rise, Light Remains', drawn in black pen-and-ink with fine hatching on cream paper, no colour, inside a cartouche held by two griffins under a crown. The giant waterfall plunges off a plateau at the centre as The Falling Deep, a tall cascade dropping into a hatched gorge right beneath the castle town of Asterfall. The sacred mountain rises alone in the northeast as Mount Erymd, 'The Silent Light', a lone peak with a small shrine at its summit and rays of light behind it. Dashed borders separate Veldoria from the Northreach Marches, Frosthelm Territories, The Stone March and the Duskward Realms, with watchtowers along them. Roads link Greyhaven on the coast, Eldmere on its lake, Thornwatch on a cliff, Ravenford, Willowbrook, Stonebridge and Redgate.

The farmland spreads either side as The Woldfields, a patchwork of hedged fields and small villages around Harthwick, Oakridge, Thornwell, Eldenford, Lysbrook and the walled town of Bellmere. The Stormspire Range rises in the northwest, Northwood and The Gloamwood are dark stippled forests, and lighthouses stand at Kestrelwatch, Sunspire Point and Eastmere Head.

A kingdom map titled Kingdom of Valmere, 'Forest Roots, Desert Skies, One Crown', painted in a tabletop style with raised peaks, puffy tree canopy and blue-roofed castles seen at an angle, its border marked by a gold line against the Thalgrim Mountains, the Drakemoor Marches, the Northreach Barony, the Soldran Empire and the Karthen Steppes. The ancient forest covers the western half as The Everwood, with a giant glowing tree at Eldertree Sanctuary, Moonfen Lake, Thornridge Keep and Greenmantle Castle. The great desert fills the east as The Golden Wastes, crossed by dotted caravan routes with camel trains between oases at Saharik Oasis, Mirage Well, Jade Wells and Serpent's Palm.

The terraced hills and vineyards cover the northwest island as the Viren Terraces, stepped green rows of vines around a hilltop villa and a harbour, and smaller vineyard terraces repeat on Sunwell and around the port of Thalor. Other islands include Elmwyck, Caelmere, Briarholt, the snowy Nimarre, Rosewatch and the smoking Karsten Isle with a rock arch. A ghostly mermaid drifts in Merrow Sound, and nine sailing ships cross the channels. A legend box marks sacred mountain, vineyard, village and woodland. There is no scale bar.

The salt flats and dry lake bed fill the southwest island, a white cracked plain labelled Salarin Flats beside the tan, crazed basin of Lake Eshra, both picked out in the legend as salt flats and dry lake. Greener islands surround them, Nerith with Thalara and Windhollow, Ilmara, Tavren, Suloch and Stelmar, while the Ember Strait runs between the volcano and the flats. Sunspine Reefs and Miral Atoll ring pale lagoons, and serpents curl along the bottom edge beside a sailing ship. The scale bar runs to 200 kilometres, an anachronism. Salarin Flats and Lake Eshra both appeared on an earlier map, and Vareth, Windhollow and Orun are reused names.

A kingdom map titled Kingdom of Valdara, 'People, Roads, Realms, Horizons', styled as an antique nautical chart with rhumb lines and depth soundings across The Cerulean Sea, and red borders marking the Kingdoms of Draemir and Therond and Northreach.
