Maps and other resources

This thread is for maps, important info, and other files to support you/provide reference.

Here is a preliminary map of Hochoch, based on medeival maps. I will edit it and clear it up as we go (I realize parts are hard to see).

Here is the view of the surroundings of Hale Arneson's mill, southeast of Hochoch. The Realstream flows roughly north to south, and so left is north in this picture. Initially, the party is approaching the mill house from the west/bottom of the image. There is a small knoll rising upstream of the mill, and a rocky bar downstream of it.

Here is the map for the ground floor of Hale Arneson's mill, outside Hochoch.

Here's a picture to give everyone the sense of the amount of pipes, chimneys and chutes that are passing through the mill all around them.

Here's the second floor of Hale Arneson's mill:


The ladder lies on the floor under the "C," which indicates the location of the trap door in the ceiling.

The shutters in the bedroom are all open, letting in fresh air and lots of light.

Here's the full basement of Hale Arneson's mill outside of Hochoch:

Here's the attic of Hale Arneson's mill, outside of Hochoch:

The Kingdom of Keoland has its own currency, with which you are each quite familiar. It consists of the three coins: the Lion, or "cub" (the copper piece), the Seal (the silver piece), and the Eagle (the gold piece).

The ancestors of the royal family were seafarers far away, at the ocean, and the royal crest still contains a seal. Accordingly, the base silver coin depicts and is called a "Seal."



The grandfather of the current king was a progressive, and he wanted to make sure that even the most humble commoner would have a bit of the regal in his life. Thus, the "Lion" was born: a copper coin worth a tenth of a seal with a proud lion on it. However, because they are worth so little, these coins have come to be referred to by the peasantry as "cubs."



If you are so fortunate as to amass wealth enough, you are familiar with the Eagle, which is depicted on the gold coin of Keoland. While people often deal with larger amounts than a single seal, most common folk do not carry around as large a denomination as an eagle; instead, they carry around multiple seals (think of them as like $100 bills - most people in the US don't carry a bunch of 100-dollar bills around, instead getting 10s and 20s from the ATM).

These are the maps showing what you've seen/explored of the Forest Ruin. Long rectangles are doors. Black areas are walls and/or areas you have not explored yet (usually behind doors).

Here is a map of the village of Orlane.
Each square = 20'
Houses are purple
Shops/businesses are green
Other buildings are brown
The brown lines are roads/paths.
The yellow rectangles are two bridges.
The curved black lines are topographical elevation lines; each represents 10' elevation.
The black square is the wall that surrounds the Temple of Merikka, which is the grey building in the northeast.
Green blobs are trees.
Blue blobs are water features.
Places that the party has identified have numbers.

1 - Golden Grain Inn, 1b - Golden Grain Inn's barn
2 - Bridge across the Realstream River
3 - Weaver's Shop
4 - Jeweler
5 - Slumbering Serpent Inn, 5b - Outbuilding
6 - Abandoned Farm, 6b - Abandoned Barn
7 - Ramne's Grove

Theran shared the floorplan details of what he saw in the Golden Grain Inn. Here's a rendition of each level. Green rectangles are external doors, blue rectangles are internal doors, and the two yellow rectangles represent one door that connects two levels.

Golden Grain Inn Ground Floor:

Note 1: The green door on the west side of the building is the cellar door; the steps lead down to the Wine Cellar in the basement.
Note 2: The stairs beyond the yellow door lead down into the main basement.
Note 3: The stairs in the southeast corner lead up to the hallway on the second floor.

Golden Grain Inn Second Floor:

Note 1: The stairs in the southeast corner lead down to the common room on the ground floor.

Golden Grain Inn Basement:

Note 1: the stairs leading off of the Wine Cellar lead up to the cellar door on the ground level. That cellar door is accessed from outside the Inn.
Note 2: the stairs from the Main Basement lead up to the yellow door in the kitchen on the ground level.
