Dragon Soul: Maelstrom is a pure parkour map by chayos and spolendina. It rewards 12 FFA points upon completion, and can be joined directly using "/join dns".

== General ==
=== Story ===
You, a child of dragons, awaken from a long slumber in the outskirts of the Dragon Realm. Years ago, the Evil Dragon took dominion over the kingdom in a brutal war. You seek the Dragon Soul, located within the Maelstrom, to gain the power to defeat the Evil Dragon and liberate it from his tyranny.

=== Gameplay ===
Dragon Soul: Maelstrom is a pure parkour map, consisting mostly of 3+1/4 block jumps that can be completed in succession with momentum. The map features little in the way of technical jumps, instead prioritising a smooth and fast gameplay experience. 

The central area of the map requires the player to complete three distinct sections which open the final area, with one of these areas featuring timed parkour.

=== Aesthetics ===
Built entirely in The End, the map mostly features terrain built of blackstone and obsidian, with chasms and floating rings made of glass and glowstone which provide colour. The central area contains a large dragon skull, stone brick bridges, as well as industrial forges and mines.

The map makes use of blue soul fire, hyphae, as well as crimson/warped wood for parkour platforms. 

The final area, the Maelstrom, is a large whirlpool made of glass and coral, with floating islands above.

== Challenges ==
Blight is featured in 6 [[Challenges|challenges]]: 2021 Assortment, Finishing Dead First, Hexa, Hexa Chapter II: The Rennaisance, Notable Picks, and Parkour Besties: The Next Generation.

== Trivia ==
*Dragon Soul: Maelstrom was featured in [https://wiki.minr.org/Hardcore#Version_11.0_-_11.1, Hardcore 11.0 and 11.1] with a nerfed timed parkour section. 
*The map references it being 'Part 1 of 2', though Part 2 has not yet been completed.
