#Fanmap

[inexplicifics]

I haven't found the fanmap, but love the idea! You can add a pin to Helsinki, Finland if there isn't one already. Love your fics! Would love to read more about Cat's Among Wolves and Three Bells. Also about Letho and Jaskier. Wish you a spooky Samhain.

Hello in Helsinki, and sorry it's taken me a while to reply! The fan map is over here.

Have a tiny snippet of a Letho/human!Gaetan omegaverse WIP:

“Oh.” The omega takes another deep breath, and uncurls a little, shoving his hair back. “So. Uh. What...should I call you?” “Letho,” Letho says. “Letho of Gulet, of the Viper School, if you want the whole thing. And you?” “Gaetan of - of nowhere, I suppose,” the omega says. “Gaetan,” Letho says. “Good to meet you, I guess. Fucking awful circumstances, but I’ve had worse.” Gaetan snorts a laugh. “What the hell counts as worse?”

Gearing up for work on my Transformers fanfiction series that continues the Bayverse story. But, this is still my favorite map of Cybertron, a good map of where things are in the universe, and a nice look of the planet (note that the hexagons can’t be seen from space, it’ll be like seeing bridges from space).  

(Note: Not 100% aligned, but helps as a rough vitalization and reference.)

EYYYYOO WE'RE GONNA GET TO EXPLORE STELLIS!!!!

[summoner-kentauris]

and last but not least a big worldbuilding thing that i dont think i ever posted. i never finished balancing the population versus physical size versus economical power relative to medieval cities and at that point in my life that was very important to me

-

The three main cities in The Kingdom of Askr are the functional capitals of the three main power regions in the kingdom.

The Himiníoður peninsula

Himiníoðurik – The sole city in the Himiníoður peninsula. With a population of 51,583 people, Himiníoðurik houses a whopping 80% of the population of the Himiníoður region. Average population density for the region is 6 people per square mile; excepting the city, this falls to only 1 person per square mile.

Himiníoðurik is the second largest city in Askr. However, due to its out of the way location as well as the isolated nature of Himiníoðurik culture among Askrans, most people of Askr (excepting those on religious pilgrimages to the Tower of Heaven) do no travel to the city. Himiníoðurik supplies itself with staple farming from around the city, but largely engages in a great deal of oceanic trade with Askr’s norther neighbors. Despite the positioning of the capital of Askr, in times of peace, this is the main port where Askr and Embla trade goods.

Himiníoðurik is a deeply religious city, mirroring the people of the region. The religious authorities take care of the most advanced Zenikian library in the world (barring medical/healing advances, with which several Emblian institutions excel). Most Zenikian scholars, however, scoff at Himiníoðurik praxis, as the culture of the region has no interest in the slightest in gatemagicks, nor in the history or interactions of other worlds.

The city is known for its sprawling layout, yet simultaneously squat, stout, and fortress-like construction. Himiníoðurik has a series of ancient aqueducts and underground brickwork channels that handle the cities water and agriculture needs, as well as its sanitation. Despite being the most advanced city in the world by far, it is a bleak looking place, and fits right in with the windswept desolation of most of Himiníoður.

In the face of the recent devastation wrought by the first tempest, several parts of Himiníoðurik are growing rapidly. It is possible that the city could see the entire rest of the region’s population move to the fortress city in the coming days. The ancient and smooth system of supply and demand is currently undergoing a massive stress because of this, and food riots as well as disease are on the verge of breaking out all across the city. True to form, the crown in Efstrahæð has not noticed this in the slightest, nor has Himiníoðurik desired to let it know.

Central Askr

Efstrahæð – the capital of the Kingdom of Askr.

Efstrahæð is the smallest city in Askr by a margin of about 6,000 people. At a population of 45,000, Efstrahæð houses only a minuscule 4% of the population of Central Askr.

Largely a mountain city, Efstrahæð gets a good deal of its food from the surrounding towns. However, Efstrahæð itself does produce a fair amount of its supply within its own walls. While appearing a delicate and airy city on the surface, in truth, Efstrahæð is designed to withstand anything that its close neighbor Embla can throw at it. After countless historical surprises from its on-again off-again neighbor, Efstrahæð has been turned into a stronghold that, despite the gravity defying look of the central castle/manor, can withstand any siege anyone cares to throw at it. A great deal of the mountains to the southeast of the city have tunnels and buildings built into them, with the most advanced agricultural techniques stolen/learned from around the worlds put to making sure the population of the castle town, at the very least, can survive a siege if not indefinitely, then certainly for long enough to evacuate the population through the legendarily difficult to navigate mountain range. Most of the true valuables belonging to the powers-that-be in the kingdom are also stored in vaults in the mountain, including the Forbidden Library with Askran records of the full known histories and known futures of all the worlds.

Most residents of Efstrahæð don’t know any of this. And the ones who do, hope the main population never has to learn.

Efstrahæð itself is made up of three main sections:

Athrpallr is the first,and it located to the north of the city. Athrpallr is more ruins than city. It is the oldest part of the city, and rests upon ages and ages worth of ruined temples and religious constructions. Most of Athrpallr is abandoned and disused. The people who do live there are perhaps the most insulary of any people in Askr. Most in Efstrahæð believe Athrpallr to be haunted. They’re probably right.

Aeþiliis the second part of the city, and is the formal name for the tiered fortress that surrounds the castle, as well as the noble homes and main military installations. While the nobles who live on the lower tiers of Aeþili spend more time in the bulk of the city, those who inhabit the castle have more of a town of their own. The official name of the castle/manor is Aeðrastóll.

Aeðrastóll is the third part of the city. The only people allowed to live in Aeðrastóll are:

the royal family; their court, companions, retinue, and important relatives;

any council/governing members and retinue, if applicable;

scholars in contract to the state or under invitation;

the order of Gatemages;

the order of Heroes, when in operation;

the king and queen’s guard;

high ranking castle staff;

high ranking castle military staff;

diplomats from other countries, when applicable;

the castle’s religious company;

Legendary or Brave Heroes in service of the state;

as a secondary home for heads of important guilds in the city proper;

as a secondary home for the head of the university in the city;

as a secondary home for local higher ups of the few manakete tribes that live in Askr.

The families of most these categories of people are also allowed to live within the grounds if space allows.

The Aeðrastóll population is carefully monitored and approved by the ruler of the country and their closest council members, as those living in Aeðrastóll are those who will practically and purposefully be prioritized if a worst case scenario came up, and Efstrahæð had to retreat to its underground fortresses.

The final part of the city has no specific name, and is merely the bulk of Efstrahæð. Efstrahæð here is quiet, for a city, and prioritizes wide spaces and short homes. As most of Efstrahæð is made of wood, Efstrahæð historically was prone to terrible fires. The current-day wide layout helps moderate this. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, the people in Efstrahæð tend to congregate into even smaller sections of the city. This leads to much duplication of stores and goods. The economy needs be monitored carefully at all times, as Efstrahæð has collapsed many times in the past under the pressure of famine, drought, floods, or even small changes in weather that completely disrupt the very careful balance that Efstrahæð usually finds for itself. Aeðrastóll itself is rarely party to these turbulent times, as Aeðrastóll is designed to be self-sufficient under duress or in worst-case scenarios, though not at all comfortable. As such, Efstrahæð inevitably comes back to life around Aeðrastóll.

Despite the geographic closeness of Efstrahæð to several Emblian borders, its position in the mountains makes it difficult to attack. While it does get attacked due to its political importance, it is rarely the first target. Travel around or through the mountains is simply too much for an army to manage yet. Emblian naval technology will have to develop a great deal before Efstrahæð needs to make changes to its defenses.

Hey there! I noticed you (and other fan map creators) put Hasmal inside Nevarran borders, which I thought was part of the Free Marches. Same for Nessum, Caimen Brea, and Trevis which I thought were in Tevinter. I was just wondering what that decision is based on since I've seen it a couple times now! Thank you for sharing your work I love fan maps so much ;-;

i have no idea when this ask arrived the timestamp says Recently i hope you haven’t been waiting for like Five Months--

tldr: to make my fan map i overlayed several different maps on top of each other. first and foremost is the official map of thedas from bioware (i think.. it’s official)

for the country borders and some minor cities, i got those from a fanmade ethnolinguistic map of thedas (found here). it places the locations of hasmal, nessum, caimen brea, and trevis within nevarran borders.

i haven’t personally cross-referenced or checked if this is entirely accurate.

the city stuff got a bit long (oops) so snippy snip the rest of the quasi-politic-economics teal deer is under the cut

as far as nessum, caimen brea, and trevis are concerned, the wiki does list them under tevinter and they do sound tevene-ish (??), so they were at least founded by tevinter. i’m not entirely sure why the ethno-linguistic map maker put them under nevarra, in that case.

theoretically, they’re all along the same minanter river so it would make sense for them to belong to the same nation (within reason). politically i don’ know that nevarra would just have the capital city on the river and have perendale all the way out there but let tevinter have the tail end of the river, and thus have their territory push a lot closer to the city of nevarra. and perendale. rivers are useful for trade and transportation, depending on how wide they are, and maybe once upon a time nevarra and tevinter fought over the tail end of the river (and thus the three cities too).

(i’m writing all this without knowing the exact state of nevarra and tevinter’s political relationship at the time but the general idea i’m rolling with is Tevinter Lost Land Or Other Nations And Empires Took It and nevarra taking that whole section of river seems Apt.)

regarding hasmal-- i did just check the fan wiki and found the hasmal circle listed as ‘free marches’ instead of nevarra. nevarra already has circles towers in perendale and cumberland and hasmal as a third would be.. A Lot Of Circles.

given the flavor text for the war table quest ‘answer a request from hasmal’ which shows the hasmali people being pretty hostile to the mages, but the templars wanting to help the mages, the city and circle being part of either nevarra or tantervale could have different meanings i think? nevarran mages seem to have more power and standing (According to the wiki), so it would make sense for the templars to stand up for them but less sense for the city people to be that willing to ‘feed them to the wolves’. maybe.

on the other hand, tantervale is said to be Super Chantry, so it makes more sense for the people there to be hostile to the mages of hasmal circle. the templars should, theoretically, feel the same, but instead they accept the inquisition’s aid to get the mages out.

geographically speaking, hasmal supposedly has a bunch of tevinter (slave) refugees too, which could fit into either nevarra or tantervale narrative wise. if we consider that the escaped slaves also make up a portion of the city people hostile to the mages (perhaps even the reason they’re hostile to them?), then the templars being more nevarran-trained would balance that out.

it could also be possible that hasmal is still considered free marcher territory even if it’s part of nevarra? nevarra might have taken them in but the people there would still consider themselves free marchers.

hasmal being so close to the capital city of tantervale would also play into it narratively too. i’m not so good at politics but the idea of a city being kind of Pretty Close Across The River yet part of another nation is kind of hmMMMM in terms of ‘would you really let that happen’. something like that. makes sense that hasmal would be in tantervale in that case. if hasmal still isn’t, then there’s probably tensions there (the same kind of tensions that could lead to the largely free marcher/chantry heavy city folk being hostile to mages?).

then again the templars being tantervale-trained yet still opting to help the hasmal circle mages is also Pretty Neat. though one would expect tantervale’s circle to be in tantervale itself, like most of the free marcher circles (i.e. starkhaven, ansburg, kirkwall).

if you go with the idea that ‘a circle as part of tantervale would likely be in the city of tantervale itself so the chantry can keep an eye on it’, then the hasmal circle being part of nevarra would be reasonable.

aside from this there’s also the interactive fanmap which delineates the borders a little differently from the ethnolinguistic one, esp in the free marches-nevarra area, using rivers more than empty space. i’d forgotten about this one when making my map.

here nessum, caimen brea, and trevis are all toeing the border between nevarra and tevinter just along the river, which could also work. instead of being lost to nevarra, it could be said that tevinter is maintaining their border there using these three cities and the river. it’s pretty far from all the other imperium settlements though, so if they want to maintain the border then the cities would likely be heavily militarized, assuming they’re not on good terms with nevarra... even if they were on good terms and the cities weren’t militarized, they would probably still be mixed with nevarra more than tevinter? being on the same river would make trade between the two easier than keeping touch with the imperium.

hasmal is still part of nevarra in this one. the river being used as the border looks fairly wide enough that it would enough to prevent someone on the other side from taking the city easily.

personally i may revise my map a little using the interactive one as reference and thinking about the borders more in regards to the related geography. as for hasmal.... who knows where it’ll go.....

so i think you could probably go either way and get away with it? until bioware tells us concretely otherwise anyway. unless they have and google has failed me.

So on to household 2! New looks and I’m so curious how it will go!

As you might have seen the banner looks a little different. The Fanmaps that I used aren’t updated for the new worlds and I want them all to have the same feel. Under the cut you can seen the complete world now.

no more blaze destiel fanmaps. we need seinfeld/george boosted asap

Hi from Berlin (DE) , can I ask what the different colors on the fanmap mean? I tried to find a legend but that endeavour was fruitless...

Hello in Berlin! Blue pins are one fan, green pins are more than one!

I started thinking absently about Steve Rogers’ jogging route during my run today and then i couldn’t STOP thinking about it because there’s literally NO WAY it makes sense unless you accept that he is specifically fucking up his entire morning routine to get another look at the cute boy he clocked on his run. I got home and started to make a post about it but it was like

so you’re just going to have to trust me 

[jaffre]

let me pull out my fanmap

it does make sense, considering the crimson isle is where the vampires are said to have flocked after sigrid joined the legion that means this was a region ruled by her master for about, what, 4000 years the codex said he was? i dont think the fell lords were much of a threat to him

Hello! I have a question, do you know where is Svart located at? Cuz I need it for my fanfic.......

hi anon! sadly, i dont know where svart is located, because technically we dont even for sure know where stellis is located, which wouldve been our point of reference....

svart is heavily implied to be a european country tho! and also it is a european country that has a coast and is thus next to an ocean (this is because vyn mentioned in his bday2 event story that svart had a tradition of throwing messages in a bottle into the ocean).

aside from those two details i can remember, i dont know much unfortunately....somebody who is more studied in vyn stories may have more details tho, so i recommend u ask a vyn expert! i totally mightve missed details alluding location/geography of the country

-The scale map of the Sovereign Kingdom of Askr-

Fun facts about Askr based off this fanmap

The total area of Askr proper is roughly about 143,285 square miles. This makes it about a little bit bigger than Germany, and a little bit smaller than Japan and the state of Montana! it would rank 62nd in the list of Earth countries by area.

At its longest diagonal, from the northeast contested border to the southwestern coast, Askr is about 525.4 miles long. For an army traveling at a respectable 15 miles per day, it would take 35 days (about one Askran month and a week) to cross the country. For people who just want to walk themselves, that distance will take you either slightly less time, or several Earth weeks longer.

The big desert area in the middle of Askr is about 14,090 square miles. It covers about 9.8% of the country.

The Great Forests in the east and north cover 23,880 square miles, or about 17% of the country.

Mountains take up 23% of the map, though because they are mountains and are tall and pointy and whatnot, probably have a lot more area on them than I felt like figuring out.

In total and ignoring a lot of complicated agriculture things, Askr’s area is thus split almost evenly 50-50 between not farmable land, and farmable land.

The Kingdom of Embla (Emba Proper), Askr’s southern neighbor, is roughly 1.5 times larger than Askr, although it has more mountains, deserts, and a large bay. However, the kingdom is only one small part of Emblian territory, and Askr is only 30% the size of the entire Emblian Empire. Fortunately, a good fifth of the Empire is and has been in open rebellion for the past few decades.

The roads from the capital to the Tower of Heaven (first tempest trial) would take about 41 days to travel at a reasonable pace.

From the capital to Gnótthaeð is about 11 days of travel.
