HX3: The Rugged Ridgeland is a small, system-neutral sandbox designed for standalone play and a way to start a campaign, or as an adventure area that you can drop into your existing game.

Inside you'll find:

• 7 Hexes with 19 adventure locations
• 6 hooks to get players into the action
• A web of economic-intrigue & power struggles
• 4 pointcrawl dungeons
• 8+ magic items
• Four 2d6 random encounter tables for on the roads, by the river, in the wild, or in town
• Four 1d6 tables to generate a unique monster

Long have these borderlands been sparsely populated by only the savviest and hardiest folk. But now, moves are being made, deals are being cut, and new & old evils are rearing their heads. Heroes are in short supply - and sorely needed. The fate of the Ridgeland is in your hands!

For clarity & transparency, I did not use AI generated art for this module. I used public domain paintings, and I edited & layered them in Krita. I did use an AI program to convert the paintings into a b&w sketch style so that they would blend into the white background of the pages.

The Age of Wonders is Past.

A thousand years ago, the Old Empire spanned the world.

It fell.

Ruins of its splendour dot the landscape, reminding
the Successor Kingdoms of how far they have fallen
from their former glory. The meager settlements of
the modern age are a pale shadow of what was.

In the wake of the Great Plague, and in the shadow
of barbarian invaders, a few brave adventurers dare
to venture into the wilds. They seek fortune, glory,
and perhaps the means to restore the world.

Will you join them?

Origami Map – Turn Paper Into Adventure!

Bring a new level of excitement and mystery to your tabletop games with Origami Map, the program that lets you create custom, foldable maps your players will love!

The core idea for Origami Map was inspired by the movie Romancing the Stone, where main character carries a map that folds to reveal a hidden location. That same cinematic magic is now something you can put directly into your D&D sessions or tabletop campaigns.

With Origami Map, you can design up to 8 different types of maps—from treasure maps and secret dungeon layouts to fun photo puzzles—each solved by following a clever folding scheme. These schemes can be tailored to your adventure:

• Colored letters on a dungeon wall

• A simple list of letters or symbols

• Lines of story text, where the first letter of each line tells players which corner to fold next

For example, in my own D&D campaign, I created sheets with the villain’s backstory, each line in a different color. Players use the first letter of each line to know which corner to fold next—turning the story itself into a puzzle map!

The program is easy to use, with a detailed video guide showing both how to operate it and how to fold maps correctly. Whether you’re a Dungeon Master looking to surprise your players or creating a fun challenge, Origami Map transforms ordinary handouts into interactive, story-driven puzzles.

Why you’ll love it:

• Create fully custom puzzle maps tailored to your adventure

• Insert any image you want — photos, drawings, symbols, illustrations

• Hide secret text, clues, or messages that reveal themselves only when folded correctly

• Build up to 8 unique map sets for endless variety

• Enjoy a fold-to-reveal mechanic inspired by Romancing the Stone

• Integrate clues naturally into your world (colored letters, coded lines, symbols, etc.)

• Perfect for immersive D&D handouts and tabletop puzzle moments

• Easy-to-follow video instructions

Turn paper into treasure, secrets, or puzzles—Origami Map makes every fold part of the adventure!

It Starts With an Idea.
Action. Adventure. Intrigue. Brave heroes venturing forth
into the unknown, to conquer evil and carve their names
into history.

That's the easy part.

Planning an adventure and successfully running it for
three to ten of your friends can take a surprising amount
of work, but the rewards are quite worth it.

For over fifty years now, people just like you have
been gathering around a table with their dice bags
and pencils and paper, prepared to craft epic tales
of heroism and adventure. Fire-breathing dragons,
dungeons full of danger and treasure, peasants and
nobles alike begging to be rescued from danger...

All in a day's work for our heroes.

A Forgotten World Awaits.

A thousand years ago, the Old Empire spanned the world.

It Fell. 

In its wake, the Successor Kingdoms war over the scraps 
Of its greatness. Vast ruins dot the wilderness, waiting to
be re-discovered and delved for treasure. Small fiefdoms
beg for protection from magic and monsters.

Between the chaos of Faerie and the howling quiet of the
Shadow, between the oppresive scheming of civilization
and the many dangers of the untamed wilds, there lies a
Narrow path to fortune and glory.
