  • The map looks great, but the title being City makes me think of the villages in Skyrim being called Cities. I am sure that this is only part of the city, but it just reminded me of the tricks we often use to help players believe they are somewhere larger and more real than they are. Anyways, it looks great! I’d certainly use that kind of map if I used a VTT.








  • For how I document, well it’s pretty loosey-goosey, other than locations I don’t really have much structure. Each note just kinda has whatever I think is important with lots of links so I can find it again. I do try and keep ideas fairly atomic - a single idea per note, so that they can be used as building blocks for other notes/ideas.

    For organization I am not using tags, I am using folders, and I change up the heirarchy as needed. For a while I had a Flora and Fauna folder, but the world I am building has a lot of non-earth creatures and plants, so those needed to be split out and given more ease of access, so now I have two separate folders at the top level. Right now I have:

    • Culture
    • Factions
    • Fauna
    • Flora
    • Magic
    • Materials
    • Regions
    • Species
    • Ideas (random thoughts go in Ideas before they are made real)
