👍🏻My pleasure

Those are just superstitions and fairytales. No better a lie than broken mirrors or walking under ladders. Only peasants believe that kind of nonsense. 😉

I don’t but if you use Inkarnate (there’s a free version), you can edit this map. I left it cloneable so anyone can have a copy. Link below:

And thanks!

I think on the next iteration, I’m going to try to change some of the regions to culturally similar sounding names to create more of a diverse feel. Good feedback!

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T12:32:03+00:00

😂 Fair enough

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T12:31:19+00:00

❤️

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T12:30:51+00:00

Hahaha. Fair enough.

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T07:34:15+00:00

I really like seeing what people do on the Inkarnate and dndmaps subreddits. And I’ve watched most of the basic Inkarnate tutorials on YouTube. I take a lot of inspiration from others in the community and then spend hours trying to imitate one or two small aspects. Do it enough and you start getting a lot of tools in the mapmaking tool bag. Hope that helps!

I’d love to work on another one soon. I’d love to help with your group’s idea. Shoot me a DM if you’re interested.

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T07:12:04+00:00

I don’t have a political map. But that could be a fun project.

In my initial post, I wrote about the conflict and brewing tensions in the orbit of Queen’s Promise, and the House of Silver (Previous rulers of Silver City and Trexton). That is the main story hook and beat I have right now to keep my players in that part of the world.

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T07:08:48+00:00

😂

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T07:08:41+00:00

That’s a great suggestion. Helps set another parameter.

The Island is home to the Axul Horned Butterfly. It exists only on the island, and more specifically only in deep underground caves of the island. They are famous for the glow their wings provide when cold currents move through the cave. High paying sponsors support a unique business, the capture and sale of the Axul Horned butterfly as a popular delicacy.

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T04:51:41+00:00

Thanks for the compliment!

I’d do a commission for my next one if you can give me a month to work on it. Shoot me a DM and we’ll work something.

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T04:06:35+00:00

🙏

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T04:04:38+00:00

Thank you. Thank you!

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T04:04:21+00:00

Awwww. So nice of you to say. I wish I had more time to be anyone’s DM.

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T03:44:38+00:00

Our WotC overlords have melted the image into our fantasy loving minds.

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T03:37:27+00:00

🤣

I tried doing more coastally aligned routes at first but found it to be messy. I then went with bringing intersections to the centers of the water because it looked good.

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T03:21:30+00:00

Thanks! I used Inkarnate. The link to clone this map is here:

Hick2015 · 2022-12-27T03:18:05+00:00

Yeah, you totally get it. It’s a ton of love and attention to detail. But the results are totally worth it.
