Hexvellum

Hexvellum is a cartographer's table for fantasy tabletop games. Draw your world by hand on a glowing sea chart and run the whole session from the same board. Sketch three kinds of maps on one canvas. Ink overland regions with coastlines, contours, roads and rivers, then lay a hex travel grid and measure a journey by pace and terrain. Build gridded battlemaps at real scale, drop tokens for monsters and party members, and clear the room with a soft reveal as the players advance. Draw dungeons room by room and keep them hidden until the party surveys them. Everything is drawn by your hand. Pick a pen, a straight-line wall, a room, a terrain fill or an eraser, choose your ink, and undo or redo as you go. Add points of interest for settlements, dungeons, shops and dangers, and link them to encounters, quests and characters. The reference table travels with your maps. Browse a full bestiary, spell list, items and a rules glossary, then add a creature straight onto the battlemap as a token. Keep character and NPC sheets with abilities, skills, spells and gear. Assemble an encounter and watch the difficulty against your party, then start initiative with the exact creatures already loaded. Track rounds, hit points and conditions, log quests and objectives, keep tagged session notes with a photo, and roll dice with advantage, disadvantage and history. Add a portrait to a character, NPC or note with the camera or your photo library. Export a full backup of your campaign whenever you like and bring it back on another device. Hexvellum keeps your table on one living, hand-drawn chart.
