In an as usually belated response to a continuing question about the inhabitants of the Half-Continent and beyond I have put this map up again but now with all new
NUMBERS![TM] by which I intend to answer said query. So here 'tis:1/ Southeastern tip of
Nenin, in the continent known as the Occident = Oriental derived cultures;
2/ Western coast of
Heil, called
Tung and home to a peoples derived from Mongol/ central
asian cultures;
3/ Heilgoland proper, an empire based somewhat on Russian/ central European cultures;
4/ I cannot remember what this area is called specifically but it is home to a wide group of wild folk;
5/ The somewhat mythic lands of
Fiele, little is known of here but that perhaps its is a land of
sedorners and many monsters;
6/ The (Greater)
Derelands, original home of the
Skylds (for those who recall the history of
Ingebiarge), origin of greater
derehunds (most excellent
tykehouds) and home of the
Hagenards and various other peoples based on Nordic cultures;
7/ Parthia, wide lands, home of wild Hun-like folks;
8/ The
Brigandine States, home of the pirate kings;
9/ The very southern edge of the
Principalitine States, based on Indian/
Moghul cultures;
10/ The
N'go, spread with vaguely African-based cultures of various attitudes to
monsterkind;
11/ Turkmantine Empire, the
Haacobin empire's most constant foe, based on Ottoman culture;
12/ The Half-Continent, home of the
Haacobin and
Gott Empires plus minor free peoples, based on western European cultures;
13/ Lausid elector kings and
Ing, the former based on Polish culture moving through Hungarian culture and ending in north central Asian cultures;
14/ Dhaghestahn = basically Persian in source.
I surely hope this does not ruin it for people, knowing my sources, my intent; the hope is to show my thinking and give you a sense that there is more to come (Lord willing) beyond Monster-Blood Tattoo.
Also,
Magos Kasen asked...
I am not sure if this has been answered before, but are nickers and bogles hunted as sport sometimes? And are they edible?Why yes, yes they are, especially by the wealthy sporting sets (and the wild kings of
Parthis and eastern
Derelands, the brave white-skinned souls of
Heilgoland amongst others), and as to their edibility, that would depend entirely on the
taste buds and squeamishness of each person, but in a general sense, yes, they are edible. That being said, to the goodly, civilised folk of the Half-Continent such an idea is
abhorrent. Great question.
...and sorry that I have once again taken so long to post - too much bookface and getting lost in the writing...
