    Default Jan/Feb '23 Lite Challenge: The Adventure Begins Here.

    Jan/Feb '23 Lite Challenge: The Adventure Begins Here.
    It does not matter what games you play, all RPG adventures start somewhere. So let's map the location where the adventure begins. In many traditional fantasy RPGs that is usually in a Tavern or the town square, but it could be anywhere. It could start with the party waking up in jail or being hauled in front of the King or meeting a stranger on the road. If you are playing a SciFi game it could be on the bridge of a starship or the briefing room of MI6 headquarters if you like espionage games. Your choice, map the location you want to use. BUT you need to provide at least a basic description of what is going on or what the setup is.

    Please remember to title each thread: Jan/Feb '23 Lite Challenge: < your title here >

    Also remember to preface each image you want to show up in the thumbnail scraper with: ### Latest WIP ###
    (If you don't, your map won't show up for the voters at voting time, which might hurt your chances. ) Try using the WIP Icon to make it nice and easy.

    Please note: If you put more than one image on the same post, only one of them gets picked up by the picture scrapper
    and it might not be the one you want.

    The challenge will end on or about the 14th of February, after which we'll have 3 days of voting. The winner of this challenge will receive a silver compass, you know you need one!

    Quick rules reminder: The Lite Challenge is open to anyone who has not already won 3 Silver compasses, 1 Gold Compass, or been selected as a featured Cartographer's Choice Map.
    Also, the map has to be started on or after the first day of the challenge, no reusing older maps even if they were not finished, unless you start over from scratch.

    DEADLINE: End of day, February 14.

    Thanks to XCali for suggesting this topic.

    That generally means you cant submit one you have partially done already or a one completed a while back and submit it for this month. Its nice to see the progression of it from the start and since there is a time limit to the challenges it makes it fairer to have the same time span. In any case its a challenge to do the map not just a vote for the best one. We have the annual awards for that sort of thing.

    So normally... this post is the starting pistol.

    When you enter the Guild, you are presented with the instructions on how to start your new adventure. While the writing looks somewhat familiar,
    there is something about it making it hard to read.
