From Kuroth's Quill -
grodog's AD&D blog

"From Kuroth’s Quill" is grodog's regular design column covering the elements of adventure design (and more-specifically dungeon design, given my interest in that topic). I will also wander through the design of spells and magic items; monsters, traps, tricks, and treasures; PC and NPC classes; planes and pantheons; and likely other topics as well. In the blog, I hope to provide practical examples that will be useful in campaign play, to show theory in action.

Foodling: DungeonMorph Dice Geomorphs --> Castle Greyhawk Sub-Level

Last night, I created a new sub-level for my version of Castle Greyhawk, using the DungeonMorph dice from Inkwell Ideas. I was a backer of their original Kickstarter in 2011, and remain quite fond of their geos dice, and of dungeon geomorphs in general!

Here's the original geomorphs dice used for inspiration:

And here's the level as I rendered it:

You'll note that I largely ignored the caverns in the eastern half of the dice image, save for general sizing and some shape inspiration.

If you're curious, full-sized versions of the images are at:

Enjoy, and stay safe amidst the covid-chaos!

Those dice are amazing looking. I may pick up one of the sets to play around with. The convection sub-level draft looks great Allan.
