✥ | a map of ru’aun, circa 1416 a.i. (after irene)

—————————————————————————————————————

hi!! it’s me again!! today i bring you a little teaser for my mcd roleplay that’s gonna be coming up either this or next year!!

i’m really excited for it, and the guys in the mcd big bang server have really inspired me to keep on crafting. more updates about this will come soon if you guys are interested in hearing more!!

(under the cut is a little tidbit about roleplay locations)

every city in red is going to be an area/setting you can actually roleplay in!! it’s not concrete, and could change—but this is what i’m thinking. key below <3

circle with diamond — ‘capital’ of the phoenix drop alliance

circle with dot — major cities

circle — minor cities

diamond — settlement/village

animal footprint/marking — high concentration of that region’s nonhuman species

Ru'aun map gives me headaches ngl

Been looking at the map Aphmau gave for Ru'aun for reference and I don't like it at all.

Why is O'Khasis so small???? Aren't they like canonically implied to be colonizers??? (or at least attempting to become) It makes no sense for them to be THAT small if they're constantly taking over villages and trying to turn into a kingdom, also why is there so much empty space??? This land has had people there for like a millennium there's no reason for so little of it to be settled into.

Rewrite Map

Completed 🌟

Some information -

Gal'Ruk was once much bigger, with more islands scattered behind their main one. Over time, those have vanished.

Tu'La is filled with peach, yellow, and orange sands and deserts on one side, and vibrant red orange forests and thick areas of flowers on the other, alongside gorgeous beaches compared to paradise. The large stone Kings castle has sadly killed off an area of the forestry.

Starlight is an area of land not belonging to any of the regions, despite being associated with Irene of Ru'aun.

O'Khasis has been separated from the Ru'aun region since the war against Tu'la and many places within Ru'aun, this makes O'Khasis the only separated village, and technically labeling itself as it's own region entirely.

The Lycan Islands and the surrounding dead land have a shared ownership between Ru'aun and Gal'Ruk, as the Divine and mythologies associated with the land have strong connections to the Warlocks Forest, and the lesser known Falcon Claw.

Sun Beach in Tu'la is more commonly known as the very popular Love~Love Paradise resort, and has over time become more accommodating to tourists and visitors than its own people and culture.

Feel free to send asks about any locations!

[ feedback is very appreciated, I tried to lay this out like a real minecraft world, so I can recreate it in minecraft in the future, but I'm not entirely sure on that decision!! ]

[ganondoodle]

maybe someone can help here-

I spent about ~2 hours last night trying to recreate the map of Ru'aun on a map making site, of course it did not go a full 100% perfect but I've decided I'm fine with that and I prefer the one I made over the original and will be using it for my rewrite

Note that anything in the general main land not marked can be assumed to be The Sacred or Yggdrasil Forest, the only part marked and labeled is the out right village the elves live in, not specifically the entire forest itself.

There's admitingly a lot of creative liberties I took and then things I specifically made different, like making O'kahsis much bigger because it always felt weird to me how small it was on the map compared to how big it was treated in world. Like yes I get that is is the largest city-state none the less, but still.

I also sized up a few small villages to make them markable on the map, as it always felt so empty to me, and yes I get that it's because Ru'aun is like 80% Sacred Forest in the original source material, but still, felt barren as hell to me.

I did also have to use the wiki for context of placing of some smaller villages, and then some I kind of slapped wherever felt too empty for no reason.

rip to all the people who almost exclusively care about the male characters, couldn't be me. go and draw leafpool or something

*Finally* did a map for Skyfall. As you can tell, there’s a lot of changes from canon. I tried to add signficant locations to each territory and flesh out the surroundings. I didn’t want as much human involvement in my rewrite, so the thunderpath has been replaced a creek and the twolegplace is now an abandonded village. There’s also a couple nods to the old SkyClan, and you can see where their territory was.

I’ll do a big post explaining all of this in the near future once I have to sit down and write it all out.

Apologies for the poor quality— it’s better when you click on it. Yay tumblr resolution :/

i feel like i should share the slightly more accurate version of my Ru'Aun map

i showed the basic areas villages are and i realised i made it seem like those ENTIRE areas are the villages. they're not. Except for Hyria's forest, that's the size of a whole ass country.

bc Ru'Aun is the size of a continent, though it was all unified under the same throne for so long, and later underneath (mostly) the same church, that it basically functions as one country (with local governments)

also, small lore lesson for anyone who didn't read my Irene and Shad Lore post: The womb of the world is the hole that formed when Judgement climbed his way out of the earth. It is incredibly deep, and no one ever really got to see the bottom. especially after Hyria went and surrounded it with a forest that you cannot cross through, even if you try.

anyways, i love my heart-shaped ru'aun. she is very beautiful to me.

When I saw an insta reel about it earlier today, I thought it wasn't true.......

But then I looked it up myself and Google Maps erased Palestine and put the Israel stamp on it. That's ...I don't know what to say to be honest....disgusting is one word for it. But also revealing where Google stands in the war, if that wasn't clear before...

Like, you can check for yourself, but when I searched for Palestine (and it doesn't matter if I search in english or german btw- same result) this is what came up:

First they erase the people, then the name of their country. Shame on every government complicit to this. If you believe you can just take something away from someone else and make it yours, you're a thief and nothing else-- killing for it makes you a murderer.

Every Israeli taking land away from Palestinians has blood on their hands. You're no better than Hitler and your ancestors hate you.

My map for the descendants universe:

Everything labeled is tied to a Disney movie. Any letters repeated with a numeric value are locations mentioned/inferred in their respective movies.

Not pictured: Agrabah, China, the Americas, London, Isle of the Lost. Incorporating real places is hard and so is making maps, and I didn’t have the space. The grey section on the left is a land bridge that would connect the fictionalizations of these locations. (Also I couldn’t decide where I wanted the Isle.)

Locations:

A. Snow White’s Kingdom

A2. Prince Florian’s Kingdom

B. Cinderella’s Kingdom

C. Aurora’s Kingdom

C2. Prince Phillip’s Kingdom

D. Camelot (The Sword in the Stone)

E. Prydain (The Black Cauldron)

F. Prince Eric’s Kingdom

F2. Atlantica

G. Belle’s Kingdom

H. Fictionalized France

I. Fictionalized Greece

J. Corona

K. Fictionalized Scotland

L. Arendelle

L2. Southern Isles

M. Auradon

Stars= Capitols/Castles

X= relevant movie locations

A X1: home of the 7 dwarves

A X2: the gem mines

B X: the Tremaine estate/Cinderella’s childhood home

C X: Forest where Aurora was in hiding

G X: Belle’s village

J X: Rapunzel’s tower

M X: Auradon Prep

Xa: the horned king’s castle

Xb: YenSid’s tower

Rewrite maps

First without the landmarks

Now with the landmarks

The circles are cities or points of interests, those with "stars" are capitals or palaces

Pyrrhia:

D = Diamond Trial Cave

P = Perception's Citadel/Temple

S = Sanctuary, rewrite name for Possibility

R = Respite, rewrite name for Sanctuary

U = Union, a historical multi-tribe and hybrid city

J = Jade Mountain Academy

O = Oracle's Citadel/Temple

T = Nightwing Animus Tunnels

Pantala:

C = Clearsight's Temple

The paler points are Ruins

Biome Colormap

[bonefall]

do you have a lake territory map that's color coded?

I didn't, so I pulled it up into paint and quickly slapped some color on it!

Blue is RiverClan, Purple is ShadowClan, Yellow is ThunderClan, Green is WindClan

And everything in red is contested. And this is BEFORE SkyClan moves in. I tried to wrench out lots of the 'clear' landmark boundaries so the borders are waaaay more arbitrary.

ThunderClan fights WindClan over the dry gorge and the sparse forest beyond it, and fights ShadowClan over the mixed wood to the north.

ShadowClan's territory is quite small, but contained behind the diamond-shaped steam. I wanted to keep the vibe that the streams veer inward and crush the border, causing them to have to throw their weight around when they need hunting space.

WindClan has lots of territory, to the point of not really needing the contested land except in dire situations. That said, Onestar still thinks it's important to assert dominance. They also have access to some highland area, and an alternate path to the Moonpool.

RiverClan's territory is deceptively large but not bountiful. It's mostly barren, with a lot of human settlement (need to add in the next draft). They get most of their food from the central river and lake; but fight for the southern delta and northern islets when they need more.

And speaking of the northern islets? That ball of red just below ShadowClan is contested by THREE clans. Shadow, Thunder, AND River fight over it all the time, it's Sunningrocks times two. And!! More importantly!! Now ProtagonistClan can access ALL of the other clans easily.

No more RiverClan exclusion. The two clans that find it hardest to meet up are WindClan and ShadowClan... and I'm planning on giving them tunnels to use, if I ever need a Shadow/Wind warrior interaction.

Tu'la

So recently I have been watching the Netflix live-action for atla and I noticed something,

these mfs, you know the moon and ocean spirits? Tui and La, and yes while I know Tui and the "Tu" from Tu'la are pronounced differently (and also linked with China) it made me think about my MCD rewrite.

I've always found it weird for a region that's based on East Asia (mostly Japan???) (you can thank Jess' obsession with anime and Japan for that) to be a desert land, yes East Asia does have deserts (the ones I remember off the top of my head are in Mongolia and China) while Japan is an island surrounded by water, it is an important part of their culture as their environment has been a great part of their food.

Because of this I have decided to shift my vision of Tu'la to one that does reflect the ocean, I will still have a desert land on the map but it wont take up the entire region.
