Greetings! You have found the Athasian Cartographer's Guild, hosted by daegmorgan.net. We hope to make this into the site for all material regarding the mapping and exploration of Athas. For the moment the archive mostly contains Brian Sanchez's excellent DarkSun maps, though we are hosting a few maps made by others as well. The Athasian Cartographers are a guild of freemen whose passion is mapping out the sands of Athas and uncovering the forgotten secrets and histories buried in the wastelands. The guild is beholden to no specific political power, neither Sorcerer King nor Merchant House, though individual members may be funded in their efforts by anyone. It is said that the Wanderer is a member of this organization (if so, perhaps the most famous and widely traveled of them). Note that some maps may contradict other maps. The reasons may be many. Perhaps one map is Sorcerer-King propaganda, and another holds the truth; perhaps the map-maker was not as experienced as he himself believes, let his imagination fill in the blanks, or was misled (or deliberately misleading). To find the truth, you will have to explore our world for yourself.
Please feel free to download the following items, alter them, and share your creations with the rest of the DarkSun community on Wizards of the Coast's DarkSun message boards or on the message boards at athas.org. Note: These are very large files meant for production work and high-quality printing: they are all multi-layered, 300dpi PSD files, meaning you need Photoshop CS in order to even use them; they will be useless to you otherwise. To download the layered PSD versions, click on the section name in the lefthand column. For those looking for just the maps, clicking on the thumbnail graphic next to the links will pull up a decently sized JPG made from the PSD files of that region. Most of you will want the .jpg versions. Finally, if anyone would like to mirror the archive, you notice any problems with the links or files, or you have any questions/contributions you would like to share here, please contact the webmaster.
