#paralives map maker

Using butterbee's Swedish Shark Plushie mod to populate my lake. I think I'll add more little critters after this. I want to add more rocks, shrubs, flowers and the likes.

accidentally deleted a bunch of maps and builds I was working on. whomp. Not super fussed especially considering I had close to 600 mods and everything was lagging so bad.

I ended up just uninstalling a lot of mods and will probably uninstall and reinstall Paralives, I really never get too upset when I loose Paras, or maps/builds. It gives me a really cool option to start over and learn it's ok to let things go and remake them even better.

Also my laptop is kinda crap cuz it used to be someone else's main machine, and its really taught me to let go and let god in a lot of ways.

I might make a like historical fictional town called Greenstead or something cool like that. I've found I prefer making stories and maps based around history and prehistory.

I grew up reading books like Girl in a Cage, Dear America Series, Cathrine called Birdie. I really liked The War that Saved my Life because I was born with a clubfoot (It was corrected when I was fairly young but I still have complications from it)

I'm still mad at myself for never finishing The Chronicles of Ancient Darkness, I really rocked with that book series for so so long.

In conclusion, I plan on making maps based on history, prehistory and the natural world in general.

I'll have to figure out how to upload them to Steam (I have a Mac, and I've never had/used a Mac in my life until now)

Hi

I'm a huge historical fiction, historical fantasy, speculative history, nature and spec evolution nerd. I incorporate these interests into making Paralives maps and builds as well as writing stories based on my Paras.

My biggest interests in history is how slavery shaped the world as we know it, Yoruba mythology, neanderthals/early hominids, but especially hominins.

I enjoy glaciers, bugs, reptiles especially birds as I have two feathered children. Canids were my first love and I am still quite fond of them. I love folklore, mythology, faeries and fae creatures.

Fairytales are still a huge part of my life and I have a fondness for "The Story of the Youth Who Went Forth to Learn what Fear Was" I'm not even quite sure why. My writing style has been influenced heavily by tales from Folklore, Mythology, Fantasy, Fairytales.

I have a deep love for both comedy and horror, two genres that are close cousins and have incredibly similar setups. I write almost exclusively about horror, obsession, dark fairytales, and dysfunctional family systems. I am unable to write fluff and it's something that actually bothers me a lot.

I am a Black disabled woman who spent time exploring my gender to figure out, I am indeed a cis woman who likes a more playful and childish freedom when it comes to what I wear and how I present. I love bright colors, overalls, wearing afro puffs.

I only wear my hair naturally, I do not straighten or braid it. Neither me nor my partner likes the way it looks any other way. I also am disabled and chronically fatigued which makes it hard to maintain in any other state.

I refuse to participate in the ritualistic beauty culture, I don't have the energy to do so. I offer no judgement to those who choose to. I do not wear makeup often, I shave if I feel like it, or if its for tests/surgeries. I do not follow fashion trends and thrift most of my clothes. (Most of my current clothes are actually a decade or more old)

It's looking a bit rough right now, I hope I can get it to a point I like. I want to add animals next? I'll have to find some mods, if anyone knows of any good ones please let me know !

My computer overheats so badly when ever I load up my map. ugh

So I started another map while I figure out where to go with the first one. I kind of expected my first map to be cannon fodder so I'm not too fussed.

I think I want to do a cliffside by the ocean, or a lake. Would be a really good use of the water tool I got from HAUSOFNANDO (I hope I got the spelling right)
