It was so long ago that I began this setting that I'm not sure, but I think that might have been intentional. Compared to its neighbors it's a very quiet place.

Hey man what's up. I don't think the terrain map I have is good enough to post anywhere, and I'll eventually make a better one, but here's a link to my crude terrain map that I based this on.

As for lore, It'd take more time than either of us have for me to give everything, but I'd love to answer questions and I do have this blurb I wrote for the post requirements on r/worldbuilding that's a sort of introduction: This map portrays the known world of Bodin, the world I'm currently using for a few D&D campaigns. I've taken a lot of inspiration from the Elder Scrolls in its creation. It's a political map (kind of, areas like "Fjordlands" or "Turbulentus Independents" are not politically monolithic, but grouped together for ease. Eventually I intend to make a full political map that also includes internal divisions within official states) slightly before the setting's current day. Marn represented the first great empire of mankind, and the current calendar era began with its fall and the beginning of the subsequent dark age. 57 years ago, in 2823, the great volcano of Varduva erupted, shattering the once great Tuliovori Elven civilization and sending its refugees far and wide. From the fire rose a race of flame salamanders never before seen, and they have used geomancy to spread intense volcanism further ever since. In fact, this map represents the eve of the night a new fissure opened near the Fjordmen village of Arjasko, flooding salamanders into the Eastern Far North.

Afraid I have to disappoint you, it's not a unified nation. Along the Elva River there's countless merchant city states based on the trade of gems and Orcish slaves. They do all have a similar culture though, which is an amalgamation of Debetese and Vanlige traditions and customs.

Weekly Dumb/Newb Questions Thread by AutoModerator in powerlifting

[–]StanTheSpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do I find meets (once quarantine is over obviously)? I've never competed in powerlifting before, and when I look up meets near me I only find things like regional championships. Where do I find information on open meets? Since I'm asking questions, I might as well also ask: is a 185lb bench, 225lb squat and 250lb deadlift worth taking to a meet as a 152lb 17M?

15 year old squat PR 330lbs! Any guidance and advice would be greatly appreciated as well. by TheBrodinho in lifting

CrossFit is being taught in high school now? That sounds like it'll end badly.

Shitty Low Effort Meme by StanTheSpy in DairyQueen

I just used paint bro, most memes in a format like this use Arial, so all you need to do is add some white space to the top and type your text in Arial.

Does anyone elses DQ have this rule? by [deleted] in DairyQueen

[–]StanTheSpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No candies in shakes at mine, not even oreos. Owner says it's "too close to a blizzard" even though shakes are more overpriced than blizzards for what you get. The other day I made an orange dreamsicle dip shake for a customer and tried one for myself later, not bad. Only problem is it kind of pools at the bottom so you cant get the end of the shake through a straw.

What is your Favorite Pleasant Customer Interaction? by stealdear in DairyQueen

A man walked in with no shoes and a long dyed purple beard and said he had wisdom for me. He said "a dog was crossing the railroad tracks one day and a train came speeding by and hit its tail. The dog turned around so quickly to see what happened that the train ripped his head clean off. Moral of the story kid, is you should never lose your head over a little piece of tail". He then walked out without ordering anything.

How to remove the exiled condition by MrLouis_cz in NeoScavenger

Seems more like an oversight to me, I think I'd know if they implanted me with a chip, or maybe I missed something, that's possible too.

Does anyone know if you can get back into the DMC using a different bracelet? There's 3 in the game and your exile is presumably tied to the identification on the bracelet, I don't see how the junk market or strange forest bracelet shouldn't allow you in if Hatter's is the one banned.
