There was some odd effects with the light sources associated with doors and windows so I just made a new sheet called Window Block, made sure that things on it blocked the light sources and was below the Wall sheet so it would disappear, and drew a simple line across the openings. Because I didn’t want a background of solid black (never seems to print well) I put in a couple of light sources outside the walls to light things slightly and cast some shadows off the corners of the building. I used the Sepia setting under the RGB Matrix effect and it worked very nicely. It is based on the lighted dungeon template so that the shadows fall the right direction and it gives the rooms a little more texture as there are small, subtle shadows towards the corners of the rooms. I am doing a 1920’s campaign so I wanted it to look a little old fashioned, hence the black and white. I saw a couple of floorplans in some older mission sourcebooks for Call of Cthulhu and wanted to emulate it as much as possible.

Comments Off on All the Annuals: Cthulhu City (December 2017) Since then I have been honored to have worked with companies such as WizKids, Pelgrane Press, and ProFantasy. When I decided to venture into creating maps for my and others rpgs, I thought I owed it to her to name myself Lorelei Cartography, since it was her that led me to the wonderful world of tabletop gaming in the first place.

But wait! There’s more!! Stick around for the bonus annual… Sue Daniel’s Parchments.Ībout the author: Lorelei was my very first D&D character I created more years back than i’d like to remember. Speaking of… All the Annuals 2017 has come to a close. This setting is a particular favorite of mine, so this annual is one of my favorites of the year. I placed the symbols and named them all while creating a dark adventure in mind for my players. After laying out a few street grid symbols, and adding a street or two using the road drawing tool to connect the grids and also finish off the outer sections, laying out the building symbols on this map was so easy, since aligning them with the roads isn’t part of this particular map style aesthetic. This annual allows a game master to create a Cthulhu inspired city easily with pre-made city street grid symbols. Maybe this latest map will finally help them along to love and crave the Lovecraftian universe I have for so many years. You guessed it readers, I’ve been trying to get my gaming group to play Cthulhu for a few years now. Love a world with monsters, mystery, and supernatural horror around every corner? Love the 1920s? Dying to run a campaign speaking in Old Tyme radio announcer voice? Oh, yes, then this annual should be the inspiration you need for your next Cthulhu themed tabletop game.
