Down the Rabbit Hole: Wonderland−Inspired Map Tiles By T. Jordan Peacock (Illustration of the White Rabbit by Sir John Tenniel)
This document contains “map tiles” composited from photographs of my overgrown back yard. Feel free to print them off onto cardstock or regular stock paper, either with or without the grid overlay as per your preference. By cutting pages apart and reattaching them in different ways, you can modify the layout of the passages. (For example, print two mirror-image “T-intersection” tiles, and split them down the middle – then swap the halves to create one “4-way intersection” tile and one “long corridor” tile. Or, cut the “checkerboard” map tiles into smaller rooms and corridors.) These tiles depict an enchanted forest full of giant mushrooms giving way to an underground root-ensnared burrow that, in turn, gives away to checkerboard-patterned tiled floors of an underground series of chambers. Open Terrain: Squares at least half taken up by grass, fallen leaves, dirt or tiled floor; there is no movement penalty through these squares. Difficult Ground: All squares mostly taken up by water. Obstacles: All squares mostly taken up by giant mushrooms, giant roots, or dirt walls. Outside, giant roots and mushrooms may be scaled by spending one round of climbing and making a successful Climb check; a character may hop down from a giant mushroom or root without any movement penalty or damage, as the ground is soft.
