Mapvember 2021

Maps Aplenty

Update 11/16/21: November has been more difficult than I thought. Currently, both my Mapvember and NaNoWriMo attempts are on hold. Articles listed here may be completed before the end of November or afterwards.

With a shiny badge on the line, it's time to attempt something that I've essentially ignored in most of our worldbuilding so far. I plan on attempting Mapvember, with at least a few maps and some articles as well. Along with this, I will be also doing NaNoWriMo, so I'm going to need a lot of luck and a lot of sanity to complete it all.

Mapping Software

For what maps I do plan on making, I will more than likely be using DungeonFog. I spent some time learning the program for the Shipwright Challenge and am hoping to make some useful things for the world.

Silver Elf Birth Rites

Tradition / Ritual | Jun 2, 2022

Within Silver Elf Culture, the birth of a child, while highly celebrated among certain people, is still a secretive time. The event is considered sacred to all women in the culture, but is considered a moment of divine clarity for the Matron Mothers.

Shrine of the Eastern Outlands

Building / Landmark | Apr 29, 2022

Here, the Elves of the Outlands and the travelers that pass this way can find a blessing or safety, the touch of a god or knowledge they never asked for. When entering this place, it is key to know what your heart really wants.

Until other buildings could be designed and built, the storeroom christened the Mithril Stores would become the center of the fledgling town of Mithril Mantle.

Libra's Hearth

Building / Landmark | Nov 13, 2021

Libra's Crown

Building / Landmark | Mar 8, 2022

At the very tops of the trees one can find Libra's Crown, a building meant to crown the forest, to provide a blanket of protection much as the goddess protects the Witches that call this place home. Here in this place, all happens for the coven.

Magic Philosophy

Building / Landmark | Apr 29, 2022

Here within the wandering rooms of this library, one can learn all that is known to the mortals of the philosophy and truth of magic. Only the Divine Races hold more information on this truth, their archives locked away in deep wells of wisdom.

11 - Place of Academics

Intent & Willpower

Building / Landmark | Nov 16, 2021

Here in this room, students must know themselves before they can know magic. They must know their deepest intents, their hearts, their morals.

The First Garden

Geographic Location | Oct 6, 2022

The First Garden is one of the many endless Celestial Realms, serving as home to all manner of flora and fauna that can be found on the surface of Isekai. Here, these creatures are free from the influence of people, living out the life cycle of the world.

Black Mantis are very similar to the Praying Mantis found on the surface, with one extreme difference. The Black Mantis of Káto stand between six and eight feet tall, often towering over its prey.

24 - Water

Gweyr

Geographic Location | Aug 10, 2022

The Gweyr is sometimes considered one of the most lackluster rivers of the Northern Continent, having nothing that sets it apart from the others other than its length. That couldn't be farther from the truth as the river sustains the Elven Forest.
