Tutelary Turtle Island [29x46]
Hey everyone!
Another long awaited suggestion: a floating turtle island!
We imagined this location like a secretive fey-imbued floating chapel that star crossed lovers would seek out to have clandestine meetings and moonlit weddings. Turtle-friend slowly travels the waterways of the world, guided by its sense of where it is needed most. Over centuries of diving and storms and rough seas most of the chapel has collapsed to ruin but the altar still stands, hazy with a magical glow, attracting ill-fated lovers who are in need of help.
We thought that brave adventurers might escort desperate lovers here and guard them against wicked rulers who would seek to keep them apart. Which, being Pride Month, probably sounds a bit on-the-nose. But maybe turtle-friend can remind us to be good allies to lovers kept apart. :)
Enjoy!
EDIT 14 August: We've added 2 new variations to this map pack that were highly requested. Now there's a version where the turtle is hiding in their shell. Both day and night (preview below). This way you can surprise your players who might not realise it's a turtle at first and think it's just a regular island.
These variations are available to all patrons. Enjoy!

Perfect for what I had in mind for my game!
My astral plane is heavily inspired by "The World on the Turtle's Back" so a battle map to represent this is perfect!
Amazing!!!
This is SO cool. My only wish would be for a map where the turtle's head and fins are hidden, just so I can then swap to this map and have a grand reveal :D
YOU TWO ARE THE BEST <3
I'm shocked. First of all I want to say that your maps are incredible! But what you post is amazing. I'm a DM in a dnd campaign where there is an organization for the final battle in which I really needed a courtroom. And when I was already thinking of drawing it myself, you post perfectly what I needed! And now, when I was thinking where can I find a turtle, which is also an island, you post this map! The sheer amount of your maps is perfect for my dnd games and my gratitude for you is beyond words, thank you for your amazing content!
So glad you're enjoying the maps and finding them useful! Hopefully we'll be this on-point with map ideas in the future too. :)
Oh, this is lovely. Thanks for the cute story hook. I'll use this in my campaign. Happy Pride!
This is getting use in both my campaigns.
Tomorrow, my party needed to get from one part of the feywild to another. I feel they're going to be travelling by the archfey's yatch. My other campaign is currently having a spelljammer adventure on its way to the radiant citadel. The cloud turtle will HAVE to feature in that!
My players are currently on the back of a giant Dragon Turtle, I am feeling targeted by this. Its not QUITE big enough and matching with how we've described it so I think its time I introduce his not quite as big child.
Been wanting this for a while! Interiors when you can!!
THIS IS PURE AWESOMENESS
