Wrongend's Blog

Hello and welcome to my blog! I'm a writer and programmer who looks to go into the game design field.

The culture of the world will be one of the more important parts. This isn’t particularly detailed, but it should do for setting up political boundaries. I based these off of real world cultures so that I could draw analogues. I’ve also provided some basic detail on which species dominates which culture. As you’ll notice, the humans span most of the northern continent.

The southern continent is more split. This will be a source of strife in that area.

Migration routes are done! If you’re wondering how the parrots got past the ocean there, according to the tectonic plates it’s possible for a landbridge to be there. During one ice age or another, that’s when they moved down south.

The parrots mainly occupy tropical regions.

The lizard and dragons stay in relatively warm areas, including average temperate and tropical areas. Their home will always be the desert, though.

The moths mainly migrated into colder regions, staying in temperate, arctic, and cold temperate zones.

The arthropods remained in temperate and tropical zones. They avoided the desert, however.

The dwarves stayed in their mountains. Woop dee doo.

Humans spread all the way across the northern continent but were not in time to use the land bridge like the parrots. Instead, they occupied the large islands.

Next up is cultural development! Will keep you tuned in.

Say hello to the first iteration of my map, which isn’t particularly pretty. This is for the world of Narrev, a classical fantasy setting with the twist of being set 1000 years in the future. It’s heavily inspired by the Vietnam War era. Set up as mainly an info dump for my climate, geography, and tectonic activity, the map isn’t a stunner visually but is loaded with basic data I’ll need to continue writing.

The stars represent species origins. In this case, I’ve named them after their most defining visual features (if they were not already a fairly recognized fantasy species) and placed them in climates I feel make the most sense.

Each continent is about Asia sized. This is important as it affected my ocean currents and my climate data. Next up is migratory routes of the species.
