Map 11 & 12: Again, the original isometric projection doesn't fit perfectly so the sizes of some of the chambers are a little larger than in the descriptive text.Map 3: The original isometric projection seems to take some liberty with spacial reality so there are some minor changes in structures within the castle.A stockade is present close to the main entrance. Strahd's carriage is outside of the carriage house to show it off. Map 2: I've added swinging steel gates to the portcullis' to make them visible from above.I've made a few minor (I hope) deviations from the written text in the adventure: Here are eleven Ravenloft maps (numbered map 2 to 12 for some reason?): If you're a DM like me, I hope you find them useful. If you plan to play this adventure be advised that these maps contain spoilers. This allows me to create maps of any size which is very handy in the case of Ravenloft as the first map is huge - 135'x80' - and would require a very large sheet of paper. When DMing I use an old 32' LCD TV laid flat that I've modified by adding a sheet of protective acrylic on top of the LCD as a 'tabletop' and drive the TV with a laptop running GIMP. The adventure comes with battlemaps for all of the other encounters but Ravenloft is presented as an isometric projection, which is nice but not suitable for how we play. You would need either this or the original Ravenloft 'I6' adventure for the map key.I've been DMing the excellent D&D 5e adventure Curse of Strahd for about a year and a half now (our group likes to take our time) and we're about to get to the climax, Castle Ravenloft, the home of Strahd von Zarovich. The maps are labelled following the adventure 'House of Strahd'. These pages contain the maps of Castle Ravenloft, In both player- and game master form. You would not normally need a player map, but it can be handy if you want to put your players on the wrong track, or if they press someone into drawing one.Īnd finally, sometimes it is useful to have an expendible map to doodle on (one you can always print again.)

(There is a brazier-symbol, but it is not used) Room 78 contains a brazier, not what appears to be a well. Not all statues and furniture were drawn in on the original map.

The stairways in map 10 are really Room 17, not 19. Room 40 has windows that are not shown on the map. Two, there are a few very tiny mistakes or ommissions in the map. While this is not necessarily bad, it means that sometimes the structure of the castle and the positions of the rooms is not always apparent. One, the original map is three-dimensional. It has a good feel, a logical architecture, and plenty of details. The map of Castle Ravenloft, included in the original Ravenloft adventure, and later reprinted in 'House of Strahd', is one of the best maps of castles that I have ever seen (castle Avernus, in Roots of Evil, comes second).
