Looking for a palace map


Advice


I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this, but I don't know what else would be more appropriate.

Anyway, I'm looking for a map to serve as a palace for a rakshasa. The idea is that the rakshasa has infiltrated a society where mages are all upper-class nobles. The rakshasa himself is a hedonistic bully who gorges himself human flesh, but he disguises himself really well and only eats people who won't be missed (homeless, vagabonds, street urchins, etc.), and never actually eats them in his own home. He even lets wizard circles and universities use his grounds for presentations and events and lets them study the animals in his private menagerie to make him seem like an upstanding member of their community. I want the palace to be really sprawling, with large rooms and unusual (but not strange) architecture. I've been scouring the internet and I found one map that looks like exactly what I want, but it's only found on a site that doesn't let me download the image. It's been published in a book from Wizards of the Coast, but they don't have a PDF version of that book available anywhere (I have checked) and I don't want to pay hardback cover price for something that I only know for certain I'd be using one map out of, so that's out.

Does anybody out there know where I might find a map that can serve my purposes? I'm terrible at making maps, but once I have maps, I'm pretty good at building adventures around them, so I just need the map.

Personally I just google search something like "d&d palace map" or "pathfinder dungeon map" and look at various images. You can also find useful ones people have made on websites like dundjinni. Also you can try your hand at this awesome web-based tool that lets you easily build maps.


Yeah, generally just googling maps is what I do, but nothing I'm finding says "A rakshasa lives here and is proud to call it home." At best, they say, "A rakshasa might hide out here if it was ordered to by a higher ranking rakshasa as punishment." If it was anything other than a rakshasa's opulent home, the maps google gives me would work great.

Googled "estate map fantasy" & this was on the first page.


Oh, that's pretty good. Still not quite what I'm looking for, but perhaps I can make it work with some careful descriptions. And if not, I can use it for something else.

How soon do you need this map? Paizo's flip mat for January 2016 is a noble's estate.
