Tir Thelandira: The Plan So Far (Patreon)
Content
Here's a map with all the locations I've got planned for Tir Thelandira. There are 12 in all, of which 3 are already drawn. For another 6, I have a pretty good idea of what will be there. And for the last 3, I'm going to let patrons decide. I'll take proposals for ideas for those locations and hold a vote to determine which ones get drawn.
Okay, let's talk about the first nine locations. If you haven't seen the lore, here you go.
- Oakenhold - Finished
- Frog's Haven Crannog - Finished
- Cave of the Sun - Finished
- Broch - This is a broch. Historically, they were built in Scotland in the Iron Age. The elves constructed this place as a defense against the Dhasrans and it's the first large-scale stone structure they've ever built. This will be the next map.
- Elven Town - Like the rest, this will get a more interesting name once I draw it. The town will be laid out in a motte-and-bailey design and there will be a bridge or a ferry over the nearby river.
- Dhasran Colony - This is the settlement the Dhasrans built around their gold mine. The mine itself may get its own map.
- Burned Colony - This is the previous mining colony the Dhasrans built, which the elves burned to the ground.
- Glaver's Camp - The encampment of the mercenaries of Glaver's Regiment. Tidy and organized. Very professional.
- Blackboots Camp - The encampment of the Blackboots mercenary company. So filthy you'd expect orcs to be living here. But nope, just really nasty humans.
The other locations are marked 1, 2 and 3. These are the ones I'm leaving up to you. I did this for the Black Loch and the ideas you submitted were so good I decided to do it again with Tir Thelandira. Here are a few guidelines on each location:
- This can actually be in one of two places: the little island in the river OR the swamp to the east of Oakenhold.
- This can be anywhere on the island, so if your idea is for a location on the coast, that's fine. It doesn't have to be where the dot is.
- This can be anywhere near the marked area, so if you want it by the lake or in the forest, that's fine. It can also be on that small island in the bay.
I'll send out a message to all patrons asking for your ideas on the first location in a day or two. While a lot of the places on the map are settlements, I'd love to get ideas for other types of places as well. Think it over. I know there are a ton of good ideas out there and I really do want to hear them. Help me make this world.
