[QUOTE="gamerprinter, post: 8767233, member: 50895"] SInce several, multiple ships follow a similiar theme, in some cases, I decided to create chapters (each 5 - 10 pages long) to focus on specific ships, cultures, regions of Spelljammer space these ships originate. I'm thinking a star system with multiple inhabitable worlds - planets and moons for the Olmec Confederacy. My Quetzalcoatl ship illustration shows the Chacoan moon as it's location, one of the inhabitable worlds. I may do one of the capital on a fantastical jungle planet - then show a map of the star system. For my Lolth's Handmaiden, and for a Spider Nest and it's gigantic spider inhabitants, I'm creating the start of a Drow city inside a gigantic amethyst geode, that's been half filled with melted asteroid ice to create a lake. Then the city is essentially a stationary boat, a floating city inside the geode. Here's the illustration for that... [ATTACH type="full"]261123[/ATTACH] Because Japan is an archipelago of islands large and small, I've decided that my Spelljammer Japan lands was once a thriving planet, that was visited by a massive near orbit planet in an eccentric orbit that caused the world to come apart, separting the Core from the Mantle and the Crust into large chunks like asteroids, but have settled into a stable orbit. Because the rocks are so close, their air bubbles overlap, and there is a single sky. Bridgings, cable cars, zip lines connect many of the closest rock pieces, while those further away require small boats to access.
