Blackwell Manor Map Pack [84 x 100]!
🕑 Added 2021-03-30 04:57:13 +0000 UTCI created the following 2-Floor Noble Manor (with an eventual lower level) to provide a lush and elegantly themed environment for a variety of campaign/adventure purposes, some of which are mentioned below:
| Ravenloft themed castle or manor to house a prominent NPC or BBEG.
| Headquarters for the PC's, or a temporary base of operations.
| Mage Guild for one of your magical organizations.
| Noble Estate for use with Heists, Murder Mysteries or Haunted Mansions.
The floors contain quarters for [4] Nobles, [1] Guard Captain, [1] Head Servant, [2] Important NPC's, [1] Wizard/Advisor, [8] Guest Rooms and much more.

For the 1ST FLOOR, I've included the following rooms:
Entry Turnabout - For carriages arriving with their nobles, a convenient turnabout moving about a lit fountain makes it easy to keep guests arriving to the party on time.
Carriage House [Exterior] - A carriage house and small stables for the the Blackwell's Carriage is located to the southwest of the mansion.
Family Crypt [Exterior] - The upper level of a crypt can be found to the northwest of the Blackwell's estate, holding the recently late Lady Blackwell, along with some other family members. A secret door leads to a staircase leading down toward a Lower Crypt.
The Great Hall - A long hallway welcomes guests with lit candles leading toward the large office of Lord Blackwell, with many passages leading off along the way.
Guard Station - In the southeast corner of the compound, a guard station provides the watch men to congregate, rest between shifts and catch meals before resuming patrols.
Guard Barracks - A spacious barracks provides room for about [8] guards that live on the grounds, though more room exists below in the basement.
Officer's Quarters - The head of the guards has an office and private quarters in the mansion and ensures the safety of Lord Blackwell and the grounds.
Bathing Pool - Located in the southwest corner of the mansion, a refreshing pool provides guests with a way to relax and clean up after a long journey to visit.
Guest Quarters - In the southwest corner of the mansion, [4] guest rooms provide ample space for visitors that have come to call upon Lord Blackwell.
Drawing/Sitting Room - Located west of the great hall, a drawing/sitting room is prepared to entertain formal guests with comfortable seating and ample refreshment.
Dining Hall - Located west of the great hall, a spacious formal dining room provides settings for [19] guests, when the occasion calls for it.
Kitchen & Storage - Located west of the Great Hall, a spacious kitchen holds busy cooks and servants hastily preparing meals for the nobility and guests. A storage chamber houses most of their goods, while a staircase leads down into the cellars.
Servant's Quarters - Located in the northwest corner of the mansion, these quarters house the many live-in servants.
Head Servant's Quarters - The head servant of the house has an office and private quarters located off the main servant's quarters.
Lord Blackwell's Office - Located on the far northern end of the hall is Lord Blackwell's Office, a grand chamber where he holds most of his formal business meetings and resides during the day to study his affairs.
Library - Located in the northeastern part of the mansion, this expansive library offers many worthwhile tomes and comfortable seating for those in search of knowledge.
Brother's Quarters - Located east of the Great Hall are a pair of bedrooms and living quarters held by [2] brothers, a swordsman and sorcerer that serve the Blackwell family. They can frequently be found there, pursuing the tasks Lord Blackwell has provided to them.
Ballroom - Located east of the Great Hall is a spacious Ballroom, where Lady Blackwell held many parties and events. They are held to this day, though Lord Blackwell is rumored to be a reclusive and stodgy host, often leaving the guests to entertain themselves after making his presence known with a welcome address.

Understood! Great! Thanks!!

Nope -- this is just a noble manor/estate that I've themed toward a particular look/feel. I have a story in my head of the type of person Lord Blackwell may be, but it's meant to be used for...anything -- a heist, a murder mystery, a social encounter, the lair of the BBEG, a mage guild, a player's headquarters, etc...
Davide Tesini
beautiful work! One question: is this related to a specific quest / adventure? Thanks
