Some Ocean Regions
Now, to create some Ocean regions. (Roll, roll… ) Well, that didn’t take long. Here’s where we now stand:
Here is a bigger, zoomable version of the map.
To the West, there’s a big ocean, mostly semi-civilized, but with a tiny little civilized Region inside it – perhaps some sort of island or aquatic realm. Interesting. There are also three towns scattered across that ocean- are they on little islands? Or full-on fantasy underwater settlements? We’ll see!
To the South-West, there’s a major ocean dominated by Evil. Yarrr – thar’ be monsterrrs! Presumably, no ship that sails on the South-West Sea returns to tell the tale.
Given these results, it seems as if the PCs are probably unlikely to cross these Regions any time soon, and might not start the game knowing anything about the lands beyond them – so at this stage we won’t determine anything further in these directions.
But I’m still having fun creating Regions, so in the next post, let’s work out what’s to the South and East…
