DnD Maps for Adventures in Western Wynandir

Written By Annie S.

Western Wynandir is the political and cultural heartland of the Dwendalian Empire—a region where imperial marble and sprawling cities sit amidst crumbling ruins and haunted forests. Fans of Critical Role’s Campaign 2 are sure to find the name deeply familiar, as the Mighty Nein spent large portions of their journey here.

Whether your party is picking through the Pentamarket looking for a lead, receiving political summons to Rexxentrum, or pushing too deep into the Cyrengreen Forest, Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount gives DMs a richly detailed region to run. Here’s our pick of ten best battlemaps to bring Wynandir's cities, institutions, and wilder corners to life.

1. Rexxentrum — Grand Duke’s Plaza

Top-down battlemap of a grand imperial plaza. A large central mosaic floor depicts red terracotta figures of warriors in a radial pattern, surrounding a central fountain with an ornate green statue. Manicured topiaries, water channels, and smaller statues line the sides of the plaza.

Rexxentrum is the capital of the Dwendalian Empire and the seat of King Dwendal’s power—a city of crowded districts, surveillance, and gleaming institutional facades that paper over a great deal of political unrest.

This Grand Duke’s Plaza map puts that imperial grandeur front and center, with grand warrior mosaics, manicured topiaries, and an ornate central fountain giving every encounter and ceremony here the formal weight that Rexxentrum demands.

2. Library of the Cobalt Soul — Celestial Chapel

Top-down battlemap of a large chapel interior. Labyrinthine dark-wood bookshelves line a gold-and-blue floor that depicts the mosaic of a huge mountain. Lecterns and research tables ring a circular apse flanked by angel statues.

The Archive of the Cobalt Soul is an order of monks and covert agents dedicated to truth, operating under constant pressure from the Crown and Cerberus Assembly, with a hidden war brewing behind the closed stacks to drag the empire’s secrets into the light.

This Celestial Chapel map perfectly captures both sides of that tension—with orderly bookshelves and lecterns surrounding a sweeping chapel space that represents the order’s devotion to Ioun, with enough shaded mystery to suggest a hidden depth to the order’s archives.

3. Felderwin — Temple Pastures

Top-down battlemap of a pastoral settlement, with neat rows of crops, livestock enclosures, a vineyard, and a small stream running through the farm. A small temple structure with a terracotta roof sits at the center, surrounded by the fenced plots and a winding dirt road.

Felderwin is the heart of halfling society in Wynandir, its farmland cultivated for over seven centuries and essential to the empire’s survival—which has made it a target for the Kryn Dynasty.

This Temple Pastures map captures Felderwin at its most inviting, giving the party a place they might linger in, let their guard down, and start to care about.

The same pastoral settlement as above, but with an internal view of the temple structure. The dirt path and interior of the temple are streaked with red bloodstains, and the lighting is much colder.

On the other hand, the massacre variant of the map is built for the aftermath of the Kryn raid, or for running the adventure hook “A Price Paid in Blood”--which sees a blood hunter arriving with the claim that a rakshasa has been secretly living in town.

4. Zadash / Pentamarket — Magister’s Market

Top-down battlemap of a large open-air market. A massive ornate colonnaded building with black and white checkered floors and a bell tower sits above circular stairs that lead down to a plaza with a fountain, and several vibrantly colored market tents.

Zadash is the central crossroads of the southern empire—a sister city to Rexxentrum where diplomats, trade caravans, and messengers from across Western Wynandir all converge, with the Pentamarket at its heart: a massive bazaar at the junction of the city’s main roads.

This Magister’s Market map is exactly what a DM needs to run a bustling marketplace, with a grand colonnaded building anchoring a field of colored merchant tents that captures the Pentamarket’s combination of civic formality and absolute chaos.

Illustrated scene of an open-air market plaza, as viewed from within one of the stalls. In the foreground are colorful tarps and market goods. A wide stone building with grand steps and tall windows rises behind them beneath a bright blue sky.

This animated scene puts the players at street-level amidst the bazaar, and is sure to make an impression when your party arrives at Zadash for the first time.

5. Bysaes Tyl — Fairy Treetop Village (Deep Grove Faction)

Top-down battlemap of a treetop settlement suspended among dense forest canopy. Ornate purple-roofed buildings of elven architecture sit on interconnected circular platforms of pale wood, which are decorated by teal canopies and intricate floral patterns.

Bysaes Tyl is the only city of elven creation within the Dwendalian Empire, built by survivors of Molaesmyr’s destruction and preserved only under a tense cultural agreement.

The city is described as “a massive network of treehouses and bridges that form the canopy and upper levels”, and the deep grove variant of the Fairy Treetop Village depicts that exactly, with ornate elven platforms of pale wood and purple rooftops spreading through the boughs.

Illustrated scene of the same treetop platforms as above, as seen at eye-level. Circular wooden platforms sit atop massive branches, connected by rope bridges and lit by glowing blue crystals. Wooden structures of elven architecture with indigo roofs stand on each platform.

The illustrated scene gives players a vast and vertiginous view of the city’s elevated platforms and dark canopy above.

6. Amber Crossroads — Market City Walls (Village)

Top-down battlemap of a busy open market on a shoreline. Dozens of colorful tents and stalls in orange, teal, blue, and yellow are spread across an open grassy area. A river with small canoes runs past the market under a stone bridge.

The Amber Road, Havenpath Road, Cloakjaunt Path, and Glory Run all converge in one spot, where a makeshift marketplace has sprung up in the wake of its extraordinary foot-traffic—drawing mercenaries, merchants, performers, and charlatans in equal measure.

The village variant of the Market City Walls map captures the beautiful bustle of a place governed by commerce rather than walls, with vibrant tents and stalls spreading out as far as the eye can see where roads converge.

7. Soltryce Academy — Demonic Library (Opulent)

Top-down battlemap of a large institutional library. Rows of dark bookshelves and purple carpets with grasping hand motifs sit on a polished white marble floor decorated with golden eye imagery. On one end of the room is a large desk with huge white grasping hands clasping the desk and wall, over which sits a large eye.

The Soltryce Academy is the most prestigious arcane institution in Wildemount, with close ties to the Cerberus Assembly. Admission is selective and often politically loaded, and for any party digging into the Assembly’s shady workings, the Academy is both a resource and a risk.

The opulent variant of this Demonic Library map makes the Academy’s darker implications instantly visible, with sleek, clinical marble floors that give way to eerie eye motifs and massive hands.

8. Cyrengreen Forest — Dark Woods Edge

Top-down battlemap of a forest where a bright healthy woodland transitions into something darker. On the left, vivid green trees line a dirt path that snakes into a festering woodland where the trees grow more gnarled and darker amidst rotted stumps and purple fungal growth.

The Cyrengreen Forest hugs the base of the Cyrios Mountains—where most logging stays near the outer treeline because its shadowy interior shelters displacer beasts, angry fey, and hunting lycanthropes.

This Dark Woods Edge map is perfect for showcasing the dangers of the deep wood, where vivid greenery gives way to gnarled, darkened growth and purple fungal blooms.

Illustrated scene of a forest path marked by a wooden sign. In the foreground, the forest is vivid and green; however, as the path goes on, the woods turn gnarled and dark purple.

The animated scene for this map depicts the point of no return, making the threshold of the deep wood feel just as dangerous as it should.

9. Grimgolir — Underground Dwarven City Center (Oil)

Top-down battlemap of a subterranean dwarven city hub. Heavy, geometric stone architecture and tiered staircases lead up to a large statue of a warlike dwarven figure. Around the statue and between walkways are canals of dark, inky liquid.

Grimgolir is a dwarven stronghold carved throughout the southern Dunrock Mountains, and is home to a society that prizes craftsmanship and martial skill above all else, forged by centuries of fighting back against the Betrayer Gods’ forces.

The oil variant of the Underground Dwarven City Center reflects the industrial character of the city well, with its geometric stonework, grand city-tiers, and dark canals flowing with oil.

10. Ruins of Shattengrod — Necropolis Entrance + Necropolis Dungeon

Top-down battlemap of a desert ruin site. Sandy red rock formations frame a columned pathway of weathered stone and rubble. The crumbling statue of a large, divine horned figure sits above the entrance to the ruins. Nearby is a small campsite of several tents.

When a quarry near Pride’s Call broke open a pit littered with ancient bones, investigations revealed the sundered ruins of a prominent Age of Arcanum city named Shattengrod. Naturally, as excavations from the Crown and Cerberus Assembly commence, mercenaries are dying to “shades and hungry entities” now awakened by the dig.

Paired with its companion Necropolis Dungeon maps, this Necropolis Entrance map gives DMs everything they need to run Shattengrod as a full, multi-level delve complete with torch-lit corridors, decorated altars, and whatever has made its home in the deeper caverns beyond.

Split picture of two separate top-down battlemaps. On the left is a dark, symmetrical dungeon with torch-lit corridors, flanking alcoves, and a decorative altar and mosaic. On the right is a subterranean cave where sticky glowing webbing clings between cavern doors. A massive insect-like creature sits in the middle, crowned with glowing orange spikes.
