Baerald map

The Baerald map (also known as the DMG 2024 map), is the common name used to refer to the map of the City of Greyhawk illustrated by Francesca Baerald in 2024.

The City of Greyhawk, illustrated by Francesca Baerald (2024).

Description

The Baerald map has an Old World/Age of Exploration look and feel to it. It is faithful to previous illustrations, it is reminiscent of the Valusek map, being a more painterly or more illustrative representation of the city in a map, and is viewed from a more isometric view. It uses a more dense concentration of buildings, which is also characteristic of the Tetreault map and Schley map.

Depicted on the map are many established locations in the city:

High Quarter

• Grand Citadel

Publishing history
