Frozen Shore (Patreon)

Hello, everyone- this is the Frozen Shore (35X45), a pleasantly large icy map! Expanding on the wintery theme of last week's map, I kept playing with ice this week. Last time I had a small, frozen stream cutting the map in two, but for this one I wanted to give the ice and water more of a center stage, more for your players to make mistakes with. And don 't forget, there are rules for what happens if you swim in frigid water, don't let your barbarian forget that they're on a timer once they dive in to choke out a killer whale!

I think the trick with this map will be to get your players to leave the shore and get out on the ice floes. If encouraged properly (with loot probably), your rogues and other dexterity-based adventurers might go without a second thought but your squishier, magically-inclined adventurers might not be so willing. If all you have left on the shore is a lone wizard blasting spells, maybe let a polar bear with an appetite or a curious yeti enter the fray from behind?
