While updating the
Lake Gloomy Map, I found this half completed map for South Pim on my Hard Drive as well. I decided to get a bit creative here adding skulls and giant alligator skeletons to match the DA description.

Thanks guys!
Glad you like it. I found that the map in D20 Temple of the Frog didn't really match the description of the town from the Blackmoor Hardback. That book mentions that many alchemists and gnomes are found in South Pim, neither of which show up on the map. I also like the image the Blackmoor Hardback creates of the humans of South Pim being a kind of ultimate swamp dwellers, dressing in lizard skins and using tools and weapons made from alligator bones.
Speaking of South Pim, was there ever a North Pim?

In Episode 28 (page 5), there is a cartographer shop mentioned in South Pim and the local tavern is called The Gator's Maw (page 14).
South Pim is just shy of 1,000 inhabitants: they look quite a lot, compared to the number of buildings visible inside the palisade. However, in Episode 61 (page 5) I can read that "South Pim is a city swollen beyond its borders" so perhaps there are some houses outside the palisade as well.
