[QUOTE="Glade Riven, post: 5123364, member: 86468"] [I]Origenal Print Size[/I]: Tabloid (11 by 17), but I did this at the absurdly high resolution of 600 PPI, so if I ever decided to take it down to someplace that has a large format printer, I can scale it up. I came across some cool maps of prehistoric geography, and thought it would make a great RPG continent map. The setting is not ment to be pre-earth. This map is less equitorial (unlike the origenal) and more temperate (ranging from tropical/subtropical to arctic). The full setting I'm working on is being subdivided into regional settings, but I'm focusing more on developing the regional cultures rather than defining every square inch. When I'm done, I'll at least release a simplified version under D20 OLG. Basically, the regions are divided as such: [COLOR=darkorange]The Feylands:[/COLOR] Alfari Emperium, Telfari Alliance; A mostly elvin setting with a cultural blend between celtic and various asiatic cultures. I'm working hard on not making it Tolkien-esq, but fans of Tolkien should still like it. [COLOR=darkorange]Former Zantier Empire:[/COLOR] Basically, everything to the east of the Telfari Alliance and the Frontier lands. The Zantier Empire was this world's Roman Empire, and it fell apart for similar reasons. The various nations are based off of renasaunce european countries. [COLOR=darkorange]Southern Jungles:[/COLOR] Vishnar, New Corvair, and southern Soria; Soria is more of a ramped up southern Louisiana with barbarian gnomes. Vishnar is unexplored jungles w/ oldschool (by which I mean pre-80s scifi/fantasy) lizardfolk that capture other races for food and slaves. New Corvair and the other islands have a whole piraty pirate/early new world flair. [COLOR=darkorange]Muspell:[/COLOR] Desert blasted lands, more or less Dark Sun/Conan/Ancient Middle East; Drow are nocturnal raiders (a bit freman-ish, for those who've read Dune) that live in underground burrows that resemble a cross between prarie dog/meerkat burrows and trapdoor spider holes.
