Anything BUT whatever dumb ass 💩 WotC has recently done or is currently doing, literally ANYTHING

Ten continents, that's a lot to work on, but also I made a sci-fi campaign (not even done yet, this setting is massive) with like 20 fully fleshed out planets, so I can relate to making a lot of things like that.

Quote from AEDorsay >>

Ok, I have officially named the sixth continent "Spot", and here is the fifth continent: Chelfth.

Clicky to embiggen, of course.

I do like the new Character, lol. Might even take some time to put it together, and I love the Transmutation thing as well as the fame thing.

 I'm just saying, the island in the middle of the map with the volcano in it should have kobolds riding dinosaurs

https://inkarnate.com/m/ZV275K-iyah-chelfth-phthorsk/

Fill with kobolds and dinosaurs to your heart's content!

So we have Spotia and Chelfth, Trying to stick with "single syllable" names for the continents, unless they end in ia, in which case the ia is the extra syllable.

As one might have discerned, if someone picks an area, I will make a tight map just of that area and now they are stuck with it, it belongs to them, deal. There is a rough limitation of 31 by 31 squares for a map area as the smallest -- I had to cut the Phthorsk map down from such.

Keeping the scale is kinda important, as at 6 miles per grid we get into the super nitty stuff, and small than that and I have to shift entirely to a different format. All the coloring is somewhat important -- they represent "top level" biomes, so that as I zoom in I can keep stuff still making sense.

Doesn't ia add two syllables? Like ee-ah, or is it like ya?

Im struggling making battle maps of a campsite and you're making whole continents. If I ever need art ill steal it from here :D

Ok, so, for those who remember, a long time ago, in a land far, far away (not really, it was a couple of months ago in this thread) I assigned the active participants in the thread each a race and class based off of their personality (or the part of it i could conceive) and their post style. we've had a few members join and I've gotten to know the veterans of this thread better, so Imma do an overhaul. feel free to use these as legendary adventurers in your world (thats what i'm doing)

-AEDorsay: Wood Elf Transmutation Wizard. A former writer whose books were so popular that every time they went into a city they got mobbed, so they took up adventuring. they wear artfully torn robes that were mangled by the paparazzi. 

-SirTawmis: Beasthide Shifter Battlemaster Fighter. a grizzled veteran of war with a love for colorful, illustrated stories.

-ChoirOfFire: Tiefling Eloquence Bard/Fiend Warlock. a former human acolyte of a sun god, who caught the attention of an archdevil who made a bargain with them to expose the church of its misdeeds. so they became a tiefling & burned the church to the ground.

-Fry_Doodles: Goblin Scribes Wizard. they use drawings to make magic, and could cast 9th level spells if they wanted, except for 1 thing. the more powerful the spell, the longer the drawing takes to make, and they are too impatient to finish a drawing and end up frying the doodles with fire bolt

-IAmSposta: A minotaur genie warlock. a unicorn headed genie who is their own patron, who during a time of disaster and mayhem, took a group of refugees into their sanctuary where they were safe. very bad at giving advice, never let them become a therapist.

-DrakenBrine: Dragonborn Fathomless warlock. a topaz dragonborn who fell in love with a curropted kelpie (beatiful lady made of seaweed), so the kelpie granted them powers in exchange for serving their dark whims

-Gnomarchy: forest gnome assasin rogue. a revolutionary whose sentences are as short as their targets lives

-KayakingPoodle: Gnoll Ranger. they are a protecter of boats who travels up and down the river, keeping the beasties away from the boats filled with shipments

-Quar1on: Aarakocra lunar sorcerer. there three forms correspond with their three different spellcasting focuses: an origami duck (new moon), a pair of scissors (Crescent), & a moon rock (full). 

-WoodsGirl0402: firbolg trickery cleric. they have a strange obsession with spiders, arachnophobes beware.

-Nothic2SeeHere2: not a character, but rather an NPC nothic that pops up from time to time and gives strangely good advice in the form of cracking dad jokes. 

-Wsyperra: a willowisp (reskinned fairy with telekinetic feat) shepherd druid. they are friends with many small forest animals such as rabbits & rats

-The_summoning_dark: unknown race shadow sorcerer. a skeletally thin, tall figure whose features are hidden by a grinning white mask, they disappear sometimes and then return. its strange, but once they return, an NPC always get murdered, and the_summoning_dark knows exactly where to find the body

If i forget anyone let me know!

 I’m here! Sometimes…

Battle maps are tricky. You have to get the textures and assets all lined up right, and make sure your grid is to scale and makes sense. That’s why stealing is the best policy!

 Me too, I'm not very active tbh, but I post pretty often and i'm always watching, but I think they wouldn't have too much info on me, definitely not enough to put me on the list.

Ok, lets see....

-BlackBear_: Koala-folk (reskinned small tabaxi) Beast Barbarian/Beastmaster Ranger. their beast companion is a kangaroo which they paid a druid to awaken. the kangaroo does all the talking but the Koalo does most of the fighting, tough the kangaroo helps during combat

-TheFriendlyArchey: fairy bard. plays a viola and is just filled with joy at every possible event and outcome, even when someone dies. they are never invited to funerals.

-HelloIml: Goliath Thunder Bard. a strange looking creature who was one part of an ettin but the ettin was split and given 2 different bodies. loves to violently strum their electric guitar during stealth missions. they have an amp strapped to their back

so true!

fortunately, what I post doesn’t need to be stolen!

I haven’t done. Campsite before, though. Hmmmmm….

Today is Continent 4. No name yet.

Just spit balling - but I was thinking Kath.

In an ancient tongue, no longer spoken (similar to Nordic and Vikings) - this land was called Kath. In ancient stories there was a land that was lush and green, full of fauna and wildlife to supply all. However, according to the stories of long ago, this "paradise" was ripped apart by "angry gods" who each tugged on each side of the continent, claiming it for themselves and their people - and the result ripped Kath apart.

While Kath is a fictional story about greed and it's disastrous results - when this continent was discovered, it resembled much of what the fabled Kath bore - lush lands, deep forests, mountains that brought down fresh water, flora and fauna and wildlife in abundance.

 Wow, this always happens when I ain’t around. I do think you did a pretty good job though.
