Forums: Forums -> Step 1: Geography & Climate (Completed)

Alright, so I finally got around to colouring in my map. I did the best I could with what little knowledge I have. I ended up naming it such that there are essentially 5 continents, though there are only 4 large masses of land. Most of these names are probably only temporary, and I may break a few more islands off, or insert some nice sized lakes and whatnot. But this is the general shape of it, and I can easily edit the names and add lakes and rivers later. With this map, I basically have to trash all the old myths I had in previous versions of the world, but as I'm likely trashing many of those sub-races, I figure that's alright. I've also gone and added the arctic and antarctic circles to this map and move the various tropics to a much more accurate and likely position.

Anyhow, the five continents are Novoi (No-voy), Pravda (Pra-v-da), Percepa (Pear-sep-a), Nadanis (Na-da-knee), Valerus (Val-air-us).

The oceans are: Arctic, Ice, Psycleman (Cycle-mon), Terrenemon (Tear-en-u-mon), Lufftarman (L-oof-tar-mon), and Gendarman (Jen-dar-mon).

Other notable bodies of water include: Leva Sea (Lay-va), Kvart Divide (K-v-art), Serenus Sea (S-air-en-us), Exus Seaway, Manun Bay (Man-noon).

Comments are most welcome. View the map here: http://rintaran.klap.../ZindRough2.jpg

One thing I would like to do would be to have this map programmed like those "where are you" maps that some people are placing on their sites. I'd like to be able to put a little pushpin type of thing on the locations that I want to bring people's attention to. So they could click it, and open up a sub-page on the particular country, historical event, or whatever. I think that would be really cool.
