The tomb of the Kirin-Born Prince is one of the older known tombs of the Etturan Dynasty – and one of the few who’s location was not lost with the burning of the Tarek Archives. Many expeditions to seek out the later “shaft-tombs” often use this tomb as a sort of base camp, much to the chagrin of the Etran Cenobites.
A small order of religious monks has sprung up around several of the rediscovered Etturan tombs and attempt to maintain or rehabilitate the structures to worship and seek the gifts of the many god-kings that were entombed in the region. However, their numbers are few and the gifts of god-kings are sparse if not completely non-existent – thus the Etran Cenobites eke out a paltry living, only noticed when they harass would-be tomb-raiders.
This map was inspired by the Empire of the Petal Throne campaign I’ve been playing in – where we recently went exploring an old Engsvanyali-era tomb on the southern continent. The linework was all done on paper, with the shading added digitally afterwards.

I really love the effect of the organic feel of the hand-drawn elements combined with the polish of the computer finish. Speaking as a graphic designer, (in my opinion) this is a fantastic look for your work. The best of both worlds: the natural feel of your older style with a modern finish, without looking too flat or sterile. Great work, as usual!
Thank you, I’m really “grooving” the extras, while maintaining my classic feel.
Love the effect of the shading. Noticed it on the pillars first and went wow! I should put more pillars in my dungeons for people to hide behind! Then I saw the walls and lost it altogether. Really cool. Yeah great combination of hand-drawn with digital editing finish. Do you use photoshop or gimp or something else? I look at your stuff in awe and try to learn. I aim to be 10% as good as you, but I’ll never get there.
I know you hate it when there’s a flaw and I really don’t want to annoy/upset you but are you missing a bit of shade at the top of the central room?
Another winner!
