You've been asking for it and here it is! A map of the Mother-of-All gaming regions.....the environs of the City of Greyhawk! This new map in the series encompasses the Nyr Dyv, Bright Desert, Domain of Greyhawk, Duchy of Urnst, and Lands of Dyvers. A great chunk of Furyondy, Verbobonc, Celene, Wild Coast and the County of Urnst are also visible. Enjoy!

This map is the beginning of a continuing series of maps which will map out the entire Greater Sheldomar Valley. I know that it may seem odd that this map is part of a project to map the Sheldomar Valley, but there are good reasons it does. First, it is easiest for me to build of off maps I have already drawn. Second, draw an imaginary a rectangle around the entire Sheldomar Valley (Ket to Pomarj to Jeklea Bay to Ull) and you will notice that the map above fits perfect in the upper-right corner of the rectangle.

As with all of my maps I have tried my best to find every canon Greyhawk location, from Living Greyhawk regional development to the Gord the Rogue novels. I've yet to find anything which describes the topography under the Nyr Dyv's waves, so I took great license to draw in my own belief of what the "Unknown Depths" might look like. The basic idea is that it is a much larger canyon, similar to the Rift Canyon, but flooded from the continental rivers.

Here's a preview, Enjoy!

The full-sized files that constitute the map can be downloaded here in zip files:

These zip files contains two larger versions of this same map. First is Central Flanaess Map (letter-sized), the other Central Flanaess Map (poster-sized).

Fair warning: THESE ARE LARGE FILES!
