Introduction
Hello and welcome.
This will be my first proper "Timeline" on this site, so i hope it will be a fun little Project but i will probably need some practice with proper formatting etc. I should also point out, that english is not my native language so some things might sound a bit funny. With that beign said, lets get started.
What is this about?
This threat will be about a fantasy world i am creating since 2016. It is a dark fantasy world set in fantasy version of the Migration Era altho with considerably different tech.
I will use this threat to post mainly maps but also flags graphics, diagrams and (if i manage to get something decent looking) drawings set within the World. There will also be a fair bit of Lore written, but i think the Maps and Graphics forum is still a better place then the writer forum, if not, someone surely can move it.
I also always find it interesting to discuss ideas and have people participate so while this is not a fully collaborative or interactive project, i am always welcome to discuss ideas and work together with people (if the interest for this thing even exists ).
I have to admit, i only roughly used tectonics and other scientific methods to design the world. So while it isnt random, these elements were more used to guide my creativity, but i want to explore a more scientific view for this alternate planet later down the line.
What is the Setting like ?
Like i said, my focus is dark fantasy. The fantasy elements within the world however are less personal and more in the bacjground, so no shooting fireballs and teleportation, it will have more of a cosmic nature. The world itself technlogy wise would be fitting for the 16. century however most of the stylistic and narrative choices are taken from the late roman empire, the migration era and even east asian history. I specifically wanted to mix things up a bit so the "Era" cannot be translated 1:1 to earth. That means gunpowder and revolutions will just as much play a role as migrations and religion.
What will be the Format?
For the "first phase" i will usually either post a picture and write some Lore beneath or if i didnt have the time for a full graphic some paragraphs from within the world. I also plan on doing a proper timeline with pictures that show the World during a certain time with the according events per decade, however this will be the "second phase" Generally i wanna work my way from makro to mikro scale. I dont think i will ever write anything narrative like because my writing is really bad, especially in english.
What is the Update Schedule ?
Generally i will try to update once per week at most , however this is a long term passion and side project so it might be rather irregular. At a minimum i will try to put something up once a month. (Hoping all goes well after this first post, like i said, its my first proper try at this)
Now to begin with, i will post a Map of the region the main story will be focused on. This is the most fleshed out region so far and i will gradually expand outwards from here:
