GM's Map 32 'Cathedral' Launched


The latest addition to our 'GM's Map' range is now on sale on RPGNow.
The Cathedral, a stone edifice of incredible beauty and design, the pinnacle of the stone mason's art and centre of a diocese.  In historical games, the Cathedral may be the sight of some mystery that the PCs are determined to solve, the murder of a bishop or member of the congregation, perhaps?  Or is some clue to an ancient riddle or blasphemous secret hidden in its architecture, vaults or statuary?

A perfect venue for both Gothic and Eldritch horror.  Perhaps the Cathedral is haunted by some ghost or entity that is growing increasingly malevolent or which knows some secret the PCs must convince it to reveal to them. Eldritch horrors may lurk within the vaulted halls or be trapped beneath the consecrated floors, scheming to escape and wreak their vengeance on humanity.

Used in a fantasy setting the Cathedral is a great place for friend and foe alike.  Perhaps the PCs need to seek out one of the clerics in the cathedral to recruit them to their party or ask them for help or perhaps the cathedral is the home of some malevolent sect that the party are sworn to bring down.  A necromancer may have already seized control of the building, or be trying to do so, in order to summon back the dead interred in the crypts beneath to add to a growing army of the dead.

Even in a post-apocalyptic world, the cathedral may still stand, a rallying point for desperate survivors or the home of a nefarious apocalypse cult that seeks to enslave those who dwell nearby or spread its message in a new post-apocalyptic crusade.

In this product, you will find floor plans of the cathedral itself, its towers and lofts and the crypts beneath for you to work into your games however you see fit.

Comming soon to the range: 'Medieval Manor House'
