Full map of Exandria, 2024 update!

Map images and Wonderdraft file download [HERE]

Hi everyone! It's been about 4 years since my last map. In that time more of Exandria has revealed itself to us, and while it is still not a complete picture, we now have enough that I felt it was time to make an update.

The biggest change from my previous map is that I am no longer using the Elven Tower Cartography assets. This is because previously I installed them incorrectly, in a way that meant that people who downloaded the map file were unable to see the assets unless they installed it in the same weird way that I did. Rather than fixing this, I instead opted to use the default Wonderdraft assets, that way it can be viewed out of the box without having to download something else first!

As before, Tal'Dorei and Wildemount are the most accurate to official maps, and we also have an official map of at least one arrangement of the Shattered Teeth, which is re-created here. We have a portion of Marquet via the Oderan Wilds and Hellcatch Valley maps, but the rest, including all of Issylra is still mostly made up, based loosely on a very old and tiny map briefly shown on screen by Sam in episode 103 of Campaign 1! Naturally when any new maps come out, this map will (eventually) be updated to reflect them.

There are some locations that are new to this map as well, such as the Demithore Valley in Issylra from Campaign 3 and all the towns visited in The Re-Slayer's Take up to episode 10, these being Himblewood, Josgren's Hollow, Shoresight Isle, and the Hug Hive. Ta'Dorei has a few new towns, Mooren and Heldenfaire, which were mentioned in Tal'Dorei Campaign Setting Reborn, as well as a few unnamed village clusters, the Foramere and Vues'dal villages. For these and the Mornset Countryside I included some non-canonical paths connecting them to the main roadways. Also included in Mornset is Roch Mar, the village that Vox Moronica visited all the way back in Episode 12 of Campaign 1, before Critical Role even did separate numbering for one-shots and thus included this unrelated episode in the campaign. This town isn't officially confirmed to actually exist in Exandria, so consider it my headcanon and a paper town. Moving on to Wildemount, Vo Village got upgraded to proper town status, and I've also included Yardel from The Nine Eyes of Lucien, Ghostwall from The Tales of Exandria: The Bright Queen, and Galgarad from the Dark Star adventure on DnDBeyond!

I want to give a special thanks to Don Farland for his original fan map of Exandria, created all the way before the release of Explorer's Guide to Wildemount, upon which I originally based my map of the Shattered Teeth. Incidentally, I believe that this depiction of those islands was the basis upon which the official map by Andy Law is based upon. I would also like to thank Niko Vanhala for his fan-made maps of Marquet and Issylra, upon which I have loosely based my maps of those continents. And of course thank you to Andy Law and Deven Rue for the official cartography of Exandria!

Hi! Yet another parody blog by yours truly: @discothemechanic!

Things I'm fine with:

Gore, horror, blood, injury, violence, cussing

No:

NSFW, sexual, ships, political, anything homophobic, racial, or culture discrimination. That includes religion.

Character sheet and headcannons below:

Ghostwalker is the kind of deity to speak in as few words as possible. He may be wise, but he's a little introverted in a way.

He works with Illumina to take souls and bring them to the right place. Some of these souls make a deal with Illumina to be his followers after death. Ghostwalker gives these souk to Illumina to give them new bodies. In return Ghostwalker has a place to stay

Ghostwalker's temple is actually quite pretty. Decorated with silver and grays, hoping to issue some comfort to the lost souls.

He's exactly quite shy for a deity. He lets others decide for him and let's Illumina do the talking. When he tries to speak, it comes out a garbled mess, and he gives up. Thankfully to Illumina and Icedagger he is actually quite fond of and doesn't have trouble speaking to.

Even mortals get surprised when Ghostwalker suddenly starts tripping on his words and starts to become really flustered with compliments.

Ghostwaller spends most of his time with spirits. Mostly animal ones. While trying to let one have peace, a little fox wouldn't leave him alone to go into the afterlife. No matter how much the deity nudged, it wouldn't go back. So he gave in and let it stay.

(More maybe added later)

(Ooc: this is me speaking)

Ghostwalker will speak in Orange his actions white/black

Minor Fixes

Ghostwalls have been removed, and any mention of them in text has also been expunged.

I also moved the note so it's harder to miss, right on the door controls.

Now I will make the game accessible. A widget that comes up when you're being chased, and larger string text.

Hello everyone and happy Friday to you all! Today we’re off for another stop on my bookshelf tour. My books are stored alphabetically and this shelf has the last of the authors surnames beginning with M and I’ve started with N. All these books are on my TBR 😂 apart from The Thirst by Nesbo which I’ve read and thoroughly enjoyed and needs to be moved to my favourite paperbacks books trolley. Swipe to see what the books are hiding in the middle 🙈 and for some other things I keep on this shelf, gifts from one of my best friends. I’ve got the Sarah Moss books earmarked to read soon as I’m such a big fan of her work and I’ve heard amazing things about Milk Blood Heat so would love to get to that this year. Can you see any books here that you’ve read and loved? Or read and not liked so much? Tell me everything, I’m going to read them anyway 🤣 Let’s have a chat in the comments! #bookstagram #bookstagramuk #bookstagrammer #mybookshelves #bookshelftour #mybookcollection #tbrpilekeepsgrowing #sarahmoss #signsforlostchildren #thefell #ghostwall #thethirst #jonesbø #dantielwmoniz #milkbloodheat #favouritebooks #favouriteauthors https://www.instagram.com/bibliobeth/p/CYcQcNirh2Y/?utm_medium=tumblr

“Who are the ghosts again, us or our dead? Maybe they imagined us first, maybe we were conjured out of the deep past by other minds.” A story of abuse, ancient sacrifices and raw scars on tender skin. This book is disturbing, unputdownable and makes you think that we haven’t gone too far from our wild ancestors. #bookstagram #booklover #whattoreadnext #whattoread #whatimreading #ghostwall #sarahmoss #novella #darkbooks #disturbingread #autumnmood🍂 (at Tallinn, Estonia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHxxQQVAJRa/?igshid=1tc35tnw03853

Last night I finished Ghost Wall by Sarah Moss, and I genuinely cannot say enough good things about it. I knew I wanted to read it when I saw it at the library early this year. That cover alone is stunning and the title just pulled me right in. The description on the inside--a teenager who is part of an Iron Age Britain reenactment to humour her abusive father obsessed with the history--had me sold. I finally got the chance to read it, and I'm a touch obsessed, I I'm honest. With an early nineties setting as the backdrop for Silvie's family going for a two week reenactment of Iron Age Britain with an archaeology professor and his students, the story manages to offer a great shot of the early nineties, as well as a fascinating exploration of what might have been happening two thousand or more years ago. The writing is absolutely beautiful, with evocative imagery and Silvie's mood as narrator amplifying the mood of the plot and giving it the feel of a coming of age story, a psychological horror, and a touch of historical fiction. The final climax of the story is brutal and powerful, grim but also hopeful. This is a new favourite for me. I highly recommend this book. Content warnings for abuse by the father on his teenage daughter and his wife. #reading #booksofinstagram #bookstagram #booksofinsta #books #ghostwall #bookreviews https://www.instagram.com/p/CCwz8DHAhDo/?igshid=4ij1ugkepz6j

(… a note seems to have appeared while Ghostwalker wasn’t looking, seems like it’s written with some sort of cypher. Well- more like translated with some sort of cypher against the writer’s own will)

He picks up the note carefully, afraid to rip it. He studies it for a bit. His knowledge on books and everything known to inpherno has lead him up to a moment like this...

After a few mins of translation he rewrote the note out.

“I swear- the void fucking with my messages is REALLY STARTING TO GET ANNOYING-.. anyways I’ve heard there was a new Ghostwalker on the block, so SOMEONE has to warn you about those two- you’ve been told about them right? An Illumina and her wind-up doll of a Ghostwalker being used to do most of her dirty work? Yeah be VERY CAREFUL interacting with them, one wrong move and she WILL have you dispatched. Don’t trust her either, bitch is a life destroyer. I’m not surprised if multiple people had tried to fight her, her Ghostwalker can get pretty violent under her orders- hoping I would get to actually meet you sometime soon when I get outta here, heard you are WAY nicer then that windup clockwork bitch..

-Signed, Devi. A fellow Ghostwalker”

Ghostwaller was shocked to say the least....if he does go visit...he might have to be extremely careful...

Planning the Last Two Weeks

Because time is infinitesimally more limited than it has ever been in the project, I have to cut back on a lot of ideas. Loads of maps? No time for that. Ghostwalls and secret passages? No time for that. A sprawling, complex narrative where your choices determine what levels you play in the end? No time for that. Instead, and I think I spoke about this before, I'm going to make Level 2 a sort of museum. A tiny city block where different rooms will showcase interesting technical elements, culminating in a train ride to the exit. It's basically a theme park, and it ends with a rollercoaster. Fitting, I think.

So I'll spend the first part of today importing some sound effects. Then I'll get to work retrofitting Level 2 for its new purpose.

🍁SEPTEMBER WRAP-UP🍁 This month hasn’t flown by as I was hoping, instead I felt like it will never end. But it was a nice reading month: . 🍁 The Water Cure by Sophie Mackintosh (6/10) 🍁 I’ll Be Gone in the Dark by Michelle McNamara (8/10) 🍁 Snap by Belinda Bauer (7/10) 🍁 Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor (7.5/10) 🍁 Ghost Wall by Sarah Moss (8/10) 🍁 Vicious by V.E. Schwab (10/10) 🍁 Testament of Youth by Vera Brittain (8/10) 🍁 The Heart of Betrayal by Mary E. Pearson (5.5/10) . . I have written reviews for almost every single book here on Insta expect from Strange the Dreamer (I will do a review for the duology), Testament of Youth (will do soon) and The Heart of Betrayal (no need, it was average so not much to say). . I am gonna start to include my ratings for the books I read because instead of using starts, I am gonna go from a 1-10 scale which I find easier to navigate since many people use the star system differently. I still use the star rating system in Goodreads but I always put my number rating in the review. . . How was your month? Was September memorable or forgettable? What great books did you read? Or any disappointing ones? • • • #testamentofyouth #nonfiction #modernclassics #vicious #veschwab #ghostwall #sarahmoss #theheartofbetrayal #maryepearson #thewatercure #dystopianfiction #strangethedreamer #lainitaylor #yalit #snap #belindabauer #crimenovel #illbegoneinthedark #truecrime #bookstacks #stackofbooks #bookstack #booksandnature #booksoutofdoors #booksoutdoors #readingwrapup https://www.instagram.com/p/BoWeSUzlaHK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=71bcyg084drk
