JTR’s Western Alliance, 8 miles per hex

The fifth entry in JTR’s Gaz F fan gazetteer series was the first to focus on an entirely fan-created area: the Western Alliance, situated west of Ghyr, northwest of Denagoth, and north from the Northern Wildlands. It is JTR’s own creation, a realm focused on traditional fairytale tropes, populated by gnomes and giants.

As with his other work, the fan community quickly embraced JTR’s fan gazetteer, and you can see the Western Alliance appearing in later fan maps, such as Jose Ignacio Ramos Lomelin’s Ramelin Mystara.

This is an original map created by one of Mystara’s excellent fan cartographers. For more information on the cartographer, including a gallery of all their maps, see also Appendix M: Mappers of Mystara.
