Awesome. I just copied the list from the draft thread and I just realized that a few of the more generic places (farms, inn) don't have real names so I'll go ahead and make a couple quick ones for those too lol. Also I think I'm gonna change Arón to Amhra, which is his usual name. Thought I might go with something more "normal" but nah, Amhra fits him.

Just having the numbers on the other one was bothering me so I fixed it. I also added a couple more named areas (like 2). If you have trouble reading some of the locations let me know and I can change the font. When I picked that font I didn't expect it to clash so badly with the forests but at that point I was like 60% done so I figured I'd leave it for now, but it wouldn't be a huge deal to change it either.
Also, here's the description of Aarstraten and the surrounding area, copied from my unfinished rp. Let me know what you want to keep and what you want to change/discard entirely. I just figure since we're using the map from it, the other general info would likely work as well to give some shape to the world.

Like ghost/creepy creature hunting/ recording- and yeah kids on the run is always fun ^^ I'm really down for that! like Our characters are searching for ghosts or something, find something and then have to go on the run bc what they found was a govt conspiracy or a old family was trying to keep the secret and anyone who finds it must die type of thing. Oooh yeah I like that!!! Maybe they are working on a class project together, and its like the history of the city they live in and its like in New Orleans or Salem or Savannah, which are like the most haunted cities in the states, and they decide to go to the most haunted site, deciding it would be fun to get some ghosts on tape for the project and they stumble on some govt conspiracy.. OMG this sounds like a book I was gonna write XD

Oops I drew Amhra and Eilin. The picture quality is terrible because my boyfriend has my good camera and my scanner is stupid so I had to take pics of the drawing with my mobile phone and then send them over FaceBook so that I could get them on my computer to put them on imgur because for some reason imgur won't load on my phone. Whew.

Sorry for the delay, I was shopping for groceries most of the day and then Livestreaming for a good.... 5 hours? Aphelyon I love your descriptions and stuff! It definetly fits and I Love the town and map. The font is fine! I do have a question as to which town would be closest to Aarstraten since my character, whose name is Glade, is from a neighboring village. I love you pictures! The quality looks great! I don't have any drawings of Glade bc I honestly suck at drawing humans but I'll be sure to post a detailed description of him when I work it out, which I will tomorrow/when I wake up bc it's 2am sweetclover1 Awesome! Like at first it starts out as a simple project that neither of them were taking seriously that then turns into "wait I think there's actually something going on, let's check it out!" Tho i don't think they should run into a Govt cover up but just like a really old and big/powerfull family that has been around since forever that is trying to hide what they are doing type stuff. I know nothing of the East Coast, I live in California and have only been to Connecticut once last summer for a week. So you can pick which haunted city.

Thanks! As for which town is closest... idk, I didn't really plan. Whichever you like the sound of the best, I guess. Really the only canon that's been mentioned on any of the cities would be that Alsbeuren is the capital of our little kingdom, and that can be easily changed.

Is the one in the top called Valbruck? I like that one

Post by Aphelyon on Mar 15, 2017 15:24:49 GMT -5
Yeap. Based on the geography of that part of the map I'd assume Valbruck is a mountain city, or is across a short stretch of mountains in another area similar to Aarstraten. But really what Valbruck is like is up to you of course. So... I think that's really about it as far as planning goes? Except for smaller details like the group of knights Glade wants to join and such, but I figure I can probably leave those details up to you. But I think that's it, unless you can think of something else?

Hmmmm nope I think we are all good on planning, especially since most of the time will be spent away from civilization as Glade tries to hunt down a creature lol. We can work on the rest later yeah? Now did you want to have a new thread posted in OTRP or do this over PM? I don't mind either way so it's up to you.

Post by Aphelyon on Mar 15, 2017 17:18:31 GMT -5
Yeah, plus probably some talking to people in Aarstraten trying to figure out what they know and all that good stuff. I can mostly handle the NPCs in that regard.
As for PM vs thread... probably thread, just because you can edit the posts so we can keep easier track of characters, events, places, etc. But it's up to you really.

What should the family be hiding?? Hmmmmm....... Should we go towards like ghosts or something or nah? Maybe they created a creature of some sort? like Frankenstien's Monster esque type thing? Something that would make the world go bonkers if they found out about it (both good and bad bonkers). Idk what yet.... Maybe a dragon??? xD

XD I love dragons what if they like, summon demons and stuff and thats how their so powerful? And they uncover this during a ritual so they are framed for the victims murder? So then they go on the run? hmmmmm ngl I'd rather them just have to run away from the family and not from the government/police if you don't mind. Then it seems a little big and impossible to do. What if they find that the family has used some sort of magic to create like a Griffin or two(Or other mythical creature.) and our characters find them, find that they are being mistreated and stuff, steal them adn then have to go on the run bc the family is mad and wants their creatures back.

Of course Great! I'm glad. Now if romance does happen to happen later on what kind would you prefer it to be? m/f f/f m/m or somehting with a genderqueer character of sorts? bc that determines which OC i use lol.

Hmm... Names I'm not sure. But maybe they've been around since, like, Savannah was made, and they made money from creating "tonics" to keep others healthy, and they created their tonics through using different bits of magical animals (like Unicorn blood, ashes of a phoenix, etc etc.) and they do this all in their original house, which has been long considered "abandoned" and extremely haunted. It is haunted, and the families use these ghosts to create a protective forcefield for their practice?? Maybe they moved to a different spot, but they still use the basement for keeping their younger creatures (like a hatchery)

And the family used to be so big that they were able to go out and hunt almost all magical creatures to near extinction so they use their little farm of sorts to keep their supply of Tonics and stuff high but people don't know that bc most of the creatures have gone extinct in the wild so they will pay top dollar for these potions and stuff bc they think the ingredients are like impossible to get and super rare.
Meanwhile over the centuries the family has died out a bit so there aren't as many as there were before but they are still a powerful name if used in the right circles. The family has spread out a bit too so only the really dedicated members live in Savannah and continue the family business. But all will rally if the family is jeopardized.
