Welcome!
The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.
Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

Edara RPG - The City of Lyre
nice city map
You are welcome!
I especially like the cliff-work and the "intrusions" of the lake into the city, with their make-shift bridges across the gap. When I see things like this I imagine a daring chase through city streets at night, a roguish figure fleeing from authorities or thugs, rushing across the bridge and then setting it ablaze to foil pursuit. Or something.
I hope the audiance of the RPG will think the same
I'm trying to put a game together and I would love to be able to use this as a major city in my campaign. Would you mind?
