The latest completed map is the sixth part of what will be an eight part map of Level 3. This area lies to the west of Caverns of the Heart Eaters and south of the Tainted Tunnels of the Triple-Headed Daeva. Just 20 days (and rooms) to go! Room Descriptions 147 – Tunnel to theContinue reading “Dungeon23 – Halls of the Slaughter Cult”

The latest map shows the area to the west of the Fungal Caverns of the Cloaker Conclave and east of the Cannibal Caverns of the Gorger. After looking over the other Level 3 maps, I’ve changed my plan for the rest of the project and I’m going to try and complete an 8-part map ofContinue reading “Dungeon 23 – Tainted Tunnels of the Triple-Headed Daeva”

The latest map of Parsantium’s Hidden Quarter explores the area north of the Caverns of the Heart Eaters on Level 3. The next map will cover the area to the west of this one. My aim for the rest of the project is to expand each level, building on the maps I drew earlier inContinue reading “Dungeon23 – Fungal Caverns of the Cloaker Conclave”

With the Shattered Halls of the Black Pyramid map finished, Level 2 is complete as far as this project is concerned, so I wanted to see how it was looking and pulled together a composite map. The map below doesn’t include the Cult Temple of the Moon Goddess which is lies to the west andContinue reading “Dungeon23 Level 2 – Forgotten Halls of Hanuman”

The latest map of Parsantium’s Hidden Quarter shows the area west of the Fuligin Chambers of the Dark Ones and north of the Haunted Halls of Hanuman on Level 2. I’m still pondering where to go next. Level 3 would be logical, but Level 4 and Level 5 only have one existing map each, comparedContinue reading “Dungeon23 – Shattered Halls of the Black Pyramid”

Since the original Fiend Folio, I’ve been a fan of the dark ones – dark creepers and dark stalkers – now known as darklings in 5e. They appeared in Parsantium’s Hidden Quarter in one of the first 4e sessions I ran, so I wanted to include them in my Dungeon23 project. The map I’ve beenContinue reading “Dungeon23 – Fuligin Chambers of the Dark Ones”

After restarting my Dungeon23 project exploring the Hidden Quarter beneath Parsantium: City at the Crossroads, I revisited the very first map I did back in Week 1 and added in some areas to the empty spaces. Room Descriptions Rooms 1 – 7 103. Broken steps lead up to a dais where a large statue ofContinue reading “Dungeon23 Level 1 – Sewers of the Hidden Quarter”

At the start of 2023, I took part in the #Dungeon23 project, creating a megadungeon by completing a room each day. After 13 weeks and 91 rooms, I was worried I would get behind with my freelance game design work so put the project on hold. I’ve had a bit more time recently and wanted toContinue reading “Return to Dungeon23 – The Den of the Dredger”
