Once you've been playing Shadowdale for a while it can't escape your notice that it's a pretty big place. After a short while of playing the original Shadowdale I started to make maps of the MUD so that I could remember where I'd been. I put these on the web and found that there were a great number of other people that found them useful too.

Zones that have been mapped

As I map new areas I'll add links to them here, I'll also add a note in my Shadowdale diary to say what I've added so you might want to check back there every now and again. The maps below are grouped into one of six groups: Home Towns, Connecting Areas, Newbie and Chump Zones, Medium and Expert Zones, Adept Zones, and Zones for all. Druids can use their tree walking spell to jump from zone to zone if they know the tree names of the trees in those zones.

Home Towns
Home towns are safe havens the races that start there. All have an inn to rent out in and usually have a safe room where you can rest if being chased by a tracking mob.

I'll be happy to add ZMud maps as I did before but I don't have any, nor do I have the time to make ZMud maps at the same time as the ASCII ones. If anyone wants to volunteer I'll be very grateful.
