Locations & World Maps

Creating Locations

1. Go to your campaign → Locations
2. Click New Location
3. Fill in:
   • Name and Type (city, dungeon, wilderness, tavern, etc.)
   • Description — what players see
   • DM Notes — private notes
   • Parent Location — create a hierarchy (e.g., "The Yawning Portal" inside "Waterdeep")
   • Map Image — upload a map for this location

Location Hierarchy

Locations can be nested to create a world structure:

Sword Coast (Region)
├── Waterdeep (City)
│   ├── The Yawning Portal (Tavern)
│   └── Castle Waterdeep (Landmark)
├── Neverwinter (City)
└── Phandalin (Town)

Child locations appear on their parent's page, making it easy to navigate your world.

Annotated World Maps

Upload a world or regional map and place interactive markers:

1. Go to your campaign → Locations → World Map
2. Upload your map image
3. Click on the map to place markers
4. Each marker can be linked to a Location record
5. Filter markers by type (city, dungeon, wilderness, etc.)

Fog of War

DMs can draw fog of war regions on the map to hide unexplored areas from players. As the party explores, reveal regions to show new territory.

Marker Visibility

Markers can be set to DM-only — visible to you but hidden from players. Useful for marking secret locations, hidden dungeons, or future encounter sites.

Player Portal

Players see locations and maps through their campaign portal, but only locations and markers you've made player-visible.
