Sandara Oasis
Sandara Oasis, a shimmering gem in the heart of the desert, was founded centuries ago by a group of nomads seeking refuge from the scorching sun and unforgiving landscape. Legend has it that the nomads stumbled upon a rare, life-sustaining spring, and recognizing the significance of their discovery, they decided to settle around it. Over time, the small settlement blossomed into a thriving city, as word of the miraculous oasis spread and attracted merchants, settlers, and travelers from far and wide. The city's unique location and abundant resources allowed it to become a crucial trading hub, connecting distant lands and cultures while fostering a rich and diverse community.

Yep, labeled and unlabeled versions would be awesome to have. Gotta keep the players guessing! Thanks for all your hard work on these!
DM Dave
Oh, you mean without the labels? Yeah, I think I can swing that.
DM Dave
D'oh. Good catch
DM Dave
Shores we already did. I'll post later. And I need to remake FoP in Inkarnate.
John Clanton
In the map you use D for Dragon. In the post, you use B for Blue Dragon.
Dice Goblin
These are awesome! Is it possible to get the same work-up for Forest of Peril and Shores of Silver regional maps? The ability to share the region map without the players knowing where the baddies and everything else are, is a nice addition. Either way, love these series!
