I've had this setting since 2003, though it was a proto-setting I created with my younger sister in 1996 or 1997 after we first read the DragonLance Chronicles novels. She lost interest, I didn't, so I took it as my own. I have expanded it and changed things since then. The map of the world has changed once every 15 months or so starting in 2003, though I have kept use of many of the names the two of us came up with (not the NPC names, though. Most of those were just taking 2 names from DragonLance characters and smashing them together), and adding many others.I have the world map approximately how I want it, using youtube videos on how to create more believeable worlds (planet size, distance from star, moon orbits, length of the year, climates, etc). I thought of trying out plate tectonics, but I decided to forego that part and just say the gods shaped the planet into how it is now. Just need to draw in the national borders, settlements, noteable landmarks and geographical areas, and rivers. I've got the deities, races, and a bit of the history already figured out. Even though I've been "actively" working on it since 2003, I'm not very far with many aspects. Stupid editions changed too often in those 16 years.</blockquote>
