A Discord roleplay map your whole server can open

Backdrop is built for Discord RP and play-by-post admins who need one shared geography—not another Google Drawing. Stack map art as layers, drop location pins with lore, and publish a live /map/your-slug link players can bookmark. Optional Discord Activity embedding keeps the map beside voice.

Wiki, timeline, and scene roster

Pair the map with a lore wiki and timeline so campaign history stays next to the places it happened. Link pins to Discord channels or categories; when you use MultiMuse, scene presence can show who is roughly on the map where play is happening—a scene tracker that matches how RP servers actually write.

Start small, share one link

Sign in with Discord, create a world in the builder, add a layer and a few pins, then share the public view. Leave the map open to anyone with the link, or add a viewer password for your circle. Full setup is in the documentation; explore a live demo at /map/backdrop-example. See also the FAQ.
