I've been away for a while - christmas and new year is always difficult to keep the creative juices flowing, with ffamily obligations, though this is the first new post of many over the coming year that will see the Inner Sea region fully-mapped!
Here's the high-res map of Parthis and surrounding areas

I've attached a pdf detailing the magic system that appears in the world of Elyden - how the Materia Omna was created and how it came to be employed by the mortal races in Atramentism and Firmamentism.
2016-11-26 16:44:27 +0000 UTC View Posthere's a PDF detailing the magical properties of the world of Elyden, going into detail on the so-called Materia Omna, how it was created and how it came to be manipulated by mortals. The document also details other forms of mysticism that are practicced in Elyden
EDIT: I just thought I'd repost this as its such a cool thing that some patrons may not be familiar with
This is something exciting and completely unexpected! Below is a short 7-minute recording of one off the Elyden flavour texts originally posted 2016-10-25 17:44:15 +0000 UTC View Post
Here's an excerpt of the document I'm working on for the world. It's an attempt at making Elyden a bit more presentable to outsiders as I understand my approach can be a bit alienating to most people!
This is the first part of the PDF and includes a bit more concise depiction of the world's creation and the Demiurges' tra...

I'm tentatively working on a PDF I hope to make available to anyone interested, detailing the world of Elyden in general. I tend to focus on micro-slave things, and I think it's about time that i show the world in a macro scale, which might show in more detail what Elyden is all about. This is the beginning of that projec...

2016-09-21 17:11:54 +0000 UTC View PostI've seen a lot of AMA's (ask me anything - literally what the name says) on /r/worldbuilding, with worldbuilders inviting people to ask them about their world, the worldbuilding process or (in my case, I guess) the map making process too. I was wondering what the interest might be for something like that - would any of you...

I’ve added an updated Inner Sea map, with some connotations and the way I’ll be organizing forthcoming maps. To maximize efficiency (both my time and space on the pages) I’ve decided to depict some of the smaller regions in single page maps (an A4 page rather than the double-size A3 pages I’ve been doing so far, though I...

Here's the high-res version of a Climate map I just finished for Elyden. This is a 'living map' so it's not set in stone yet. Far from it - I expect I'll be updating this and tinkering with it for years to come as I learn more about the intricacies of climate, currents, precipitation, etc. and tweak regional temperature...

The latest map in the Atlas Elyden series. I'm working on the encyclopaedia entry for the region and will polish it up and post it over the coming days. I have a few commissions lined up so it will probably be a while until I get round to getting another map posted.
