[QUOTE="Capellan, post: 401055, member: 6294"] [b]Credit Where Credit Is Due[/b] As astute observers of the map will notice, there are a number of settlements listed that originate from other people's work. It's time to acknowledge those origins :) The village of Amberdale is based on the PDabble Games adventure [I]An Introduction to Amberdale[/I]. My Amberdale has a number of changes from the original, both in terms of its history and its populace, but most of the work was PDabble's. The settlements of Duvik's Pass, Marikest, Miel, Poisson and Risen Star are all from WotC's free online adventures. These are a great resource for DMs and I give WotC two big thumbs up for providing them to us all. Dragon Isle is inspired by the island of the same name in Wicht's Kalamar campaign, [I]Servants of the Swift Sword[/I]. I plan to use it in a very different way, but that's where the original impetus came from. Lastly, there is Skull Port. The name probably makes most people think of Freeport, but it is in actual fact based on Port Blacksand, from the Fighting Fantasy gamebook [I]City of Thieves[/I]. [B]Company of the Random Encounter[/B] will also feature further sites from WotC and from Wicht's campaign, as well as other works, but none of those are shown on the map. [/QUOTE]
