D&D Peridrake Colony Map
FULL RESOLUTION IMAGE: https://i.imgur.com/cvyPGOH.png
Hello again, everybody! I'm dropping in again to bring you a ginormous D&D project of mine involving the creation of a map... and a whole splatbook to go with it. The splatbook in question is meant to elaborate (in excruciating detail) on Peridoc's feral species, and how it is worked into the Dungeons and Dragons campaign settings. What you're looking at is an isometric map of one of their colonies, which stretches from the surface all the way down to the Lowerdark- the deepest part of the Underdark. The sheer scale of the colony- meant to house hundreds of thousands, if not millions of Peridrakes- forms the entire nation under which the race of aberrant dragons live. The fact that a place so expansive can be disguised as a large sinkhole truly boggles the mind! Let's take a look at some background music players might pull up in each level...
Upper Levels (near surface): Inner Sanctum | Sanctum | The Empty Chapel
Middle Levels (>1 mile): Awakening | The Eastern Star | Spirits of the Water
Lower Levels (>3-5 miles): Life Left | Megalosthronos | A Howling Gate
Bottom Levels (>10 miles): Dominus-Magisterium | Blagoslovenie | The Crimson Kingdom
...And finally, if you want to see the D&D splatbook itself, you can find that in one of these three links:

Thank you very much! I've managed to write out and organize the entire splatbook this belongs in, but I'm still waiting on the guy I commissioned to finish his illustrations. Once that's done, I'll have a lot more goodies flooding into my gallery- stay tuned! :D
That's awesome! Also, thank you for introducing me to the term 'splatbook'! I've just read up on that and bet that a video would be a fantastic way of talking a person through a splatbook. I'll have to think about that...
Oooh, splatbook narrations! I've seen people explore those books, even finding ways to flesh the video out by adding supplementary material like images, charts, and references to other D&D material. Even if it's just in your spare time (since I dunno how frequently you could find a homebrew publisher who would commission a video on their work), it would be very interesting to see you explore a splatbook, or even how you might analyze the kinds of characters and monsters found in it.
Well, admittedly video commissioners are few and far between but I like to hope that I've proved my ability to make videos. With that said, I could certainly do with a broader portfolio.
