A place for your next story.

Geography before the first chapter

A coastline can suggest a voyage. A mountain pass can become a border. A named town gives an adventuring party somewhere to begin. The tool builds that starting geography for D&D campaigns, novels, worldbuilding notebooks and printable handouts.

How the maps are made

Seeded fractal noise builds the terrain. Land amount determines sea level, rivers follow descending terrain, and city candidates favor coasts and rivers. Place names come from syllables. Keep the same seed and settings to reproduce the same world.

Free maps are generated in your browser; HD exports are rendered in memory on our server from the same seed and settings and are not saved. No image is uploaded. Maps use procedural rules, not AI. Parchment, colored atlas and printable ink are all available without signing up.

Free maps, optional HD

Free downloads are 1600×1000 PNGs with a small corner watermark. HD exports are 4096×2560 PNGs without a watermark for 1 credit. The same map can be downloaded again on that account for free.

Maps you generate are yours to use, including commercially. For help, write to hello@fantasy-map-generator.com.
