Lost Mines of Barovia: Hollow Reach - 34x34 Battlemap | Reimagining of Old Owl Well

Heyya Folks,

I'm continuing my ***Lost Mines of Barovia*** project, and this week's release reimagines Old Owl Well as something much stranger — a massive, seemingly bottomless crater filled with floating rocks.

**Hollow Reach — 34x34**

If you'd like the full release, including the high-resolution map, gridless version, VTT-ready exports, and every variant, you can find it here:

This takes Old Owl Well in a very different direction. I wanted to keep the core of the original encounter intact — a researcher studying something unusual, a location with strange magical significance, and dangerous creatures that don't necessarily have to end in a fight — while completely rethinking the place where that encounter happens.

Hollow Reach is a massive shaft in the wilderness, filled with strangely lit clouds, and enormous stones suspended effortlessly above the depths. The largest of them all sits near the center, where a druidic researcher has established a camp to study the elemental anomaly.

Getting there means crossing the Reach itself.

The floating stones create a natural platforming challenge, while mephits harass the players along the way. The researcher isn't necessarily looking for a fight either, giving the encounter room for negotiation, exploration, or a very dangerous attempt to reach the center.

I wanted Hollow Reach to bring a little more of the **Castlevania** influence into ***Lost Mines of Barovia*** — particularly its focus on platforming. Here, the journey to the center of the Reach is just as much a part of the encounter as what waits there.
