Sunless is a massive Frigid Island full of fantastical creatures, corrupt medieval politics, and adventure waiting to be had. It is part of a large classic RPG/Minecraft project I am working on and I felt like sharing it. Please feel free to leave any questions, comments, or complaints in the complaint box.

Lore and Stuff (for those few who may be interested):
The world this map takes place in is MASSIVE. It ranges a few continents, many kingdoms, and more countries. However this map is just a single snowy island off the coast of the Western continent known as Lefenon.
The Island is named Sunless because when it's first inhabitants the Snow Elves sailed to it, it was the Winter season. And during the Winters in Sunless, the entire sky is covered by enormous clouds constantly showering down hail, rain, and snow.
The Snow Elves made small villages and tribes, eventually leaving the land to find more prosperous areas. After this time a Great House of Dwarves known as House Bolden sailed to the island on a mighty airship. They began colonizing and building massive cities. By the end of their colonization there were 3 great cities. Pinewatch, which hosted a Godswood Tree so large that you could taste the mana in the air. Lord's Hammer, a city so mighty and powerful it's keep was built inside of a 700 foot tall volcano, and the throne sits just above a massive lava core. And finally there was Whitefall, with the most powerful wall built by dwarves at that time, and the largest mountains in Sunless surrounding that which was not walled off.

Thousands of years of prosperity the Dwarves had in Whitefall. The land was ripe with boars and snowfruits, and the mountains were rich with ores aplenty. Lord's Hammer became famous for it's amazing smithing and legendary markets. However no good thing lasts. After 1200 years of prosperity, a fleet of the First Men, a barbaric race of humans docked at Pinewatch. Even the strength of the Dwarves could not withstand the horde of barbarians that came crashing through their homes and walls. The humans conquered the entire island in less than a year, and what remained of house Bolden fled to the country of Myr where they formed an alliance with the Dark Elves.

Now the humans prospered for thousands of years. They ruled fairly and slowly became more civilized. They slayed dragons, made Nordic Steel, and renamed the cities other than Whitefall. After around 500 years some houses became bored of the land and left. But a few stayed. What seemed like a simple departure actually halved the defenses of the humans of Sunless, and this was noted by the remnants of House Bolden who were hiding away in the Mountains of Myr. They rose once more, and this time sailed their army to Sunless. The Bolden army crushed the defiled Pinehaven, and made their way to Lord's Hammer, quickly retaking their city and slaughtering it's human Lords.
However...the Dwarves were not the only ones who had sensed weakness...
In a flash the High Elves set foot on Sunless and took the ruined Pinehaven for themselves, and for the last hundred years the three races have been warring, all trapped in their own stolen cities.
Who will win? The Dwarves of Lord's Hammer? The Elves of Sanctuary? or the Humans of Whitefall?
Perhaps the Dragons will win, or the nomadic Dark Elves.
It's all up to you, when you play the map...
