I will be starting up my first game of Epyllion soon. What do people use to draw on the map of Dragonia online? Is there a preferred easy to setup whiteboard (or something like that) tool out that that you would recommend?

A Google Drawing works well. You can pull in pictures, add text and shapes, and freeform draw if you want to.
Welcome to the game Will, hope you have a great time once you start it.
I think Google Drawing is a pretty decent tool to work in digital map. There are many other “professional” looking programs, but I dont think it’s necessary.
I ended up creating a new continent for the adventures, and while draconia remains an island, there is a continent a glide away filled with many many undiscovered secrets.
And I ended up doing it by hand in an old sketch book I hadn’t used in quite some time. Somehow, I felt a dragon’s game had to have a hand-made map. That’s one aspect I loved from being a GM, and it’s been a while since I had to draw a map for the world of a game.
Just my own personal experience, of course. I have seen digital maps that are extremely nice and perfect as handouts to players.
I just finished my second session (more like a session 1 part 2) since this group only has 2 hours each time due to schedule commitments. It has been a blast both because I am finally getting my youngest daughter into the hobby BUT my wife has joined me for the first time.
Tonight’s session was a blast. I still need to ask more questions and trigger more moves but the players had fun so that is what counts. 🙂
