After several years in the making, I’m pleased to finally announce the Athasian Cartographer’s Guild website is now reborn, thanks to the incredible efforts of @greyorm and the Pristine Tower dev team!

For those not familiar with the site, since 2000 this has been the most expansive source of collected canon and fanon geography for Athas and Dark Sun. And now the site and its maps have been comprehensively updated to better serve its purpose and help DMs and players explore the whole world.

Features: -Entirely new structure which works across all sizes of computers and devices -An upgraded planetary map with carefully constructed proportions and scales. -New vector-based high detail maps for nearly all the map tiles covering the original revised map, plus the west coast of the neighbouring Anattan continent. -A new scheme for encouraging aspiring mapmakers to join us.
