  • The Lost Library by Spectralicy

We’re excited to unveil a captivating collection of lost library maps courtesy of the talented Spectralicy! Their ingenious layouts and eye-catching details offer endless possibilities for hidden surprises, from treacherous traps to alluring treasures. So prepare to lose yourself in these inspiring creations!

The maps range between 29×28 and 32×35 in size and come with messy pre-adventure and cleaned-out post-adventure variants. There are even secret bookshelf overlays for when your players finally figure out how to get past the barriers and escape the labyrinth!

A final note of thanks to Spectralicy for their incredible contribution, and feel free to show your appreciation by leaving a comment, or simply diving into a new story arc fueled by these amazing maps.

From Spectralicy:

Libraries are places of knowledge and when a group of heroes are in need of knowledge that’s been lost to the ages, they must go to a library that’s been lost just the same. In my world, this lost library, which houses great knowledge and terrible dangers, sits under a royal magic academy, but it only opens its secret entries to a select few and even if you’re lucky enough to get in, there’s no guarantee the library will allow you to leave.

When I made these in Dungeondraft, I made sure to put in all the things you need in a library: Books, shelves for the books, dust and cobwebs, a maze, plenty of potential secrets, a grotesque monster trapped in a pit, and most importantly places to have a seat while you study! I used quite a few recolored and modified assets that I did using Clip Studio, as well as adding in some dark shadows and candlelight to set the mood.
