The maps. I apologize for my handwriting and quality, since these are all on actual paper and my room has bad lighting.



Banti is hot all months of the year, a kingdom of people who are lazy and happy. Artisans and craftsmen dwell here. The main export of this kingdom is a special type of glass that only Genta's explosive powder can break. There are two capitals that make all the decisions together, the jungle capital and the desert capital. Their main transport between capitals is by river boat.


Noxus has been warring with Ardany on and off for over a century. They are easily the two strongest kingdoms in the known world. The problem is that Ardany is remote and hard to invade, especially since they're allied with Xiang-Bao, a kingdom filled with exceptional soldiers. Noxus has a stricter sense of propriety than many other kingdoms, and women aren't allowed in the army or in schools other than healing schools.


Ardany:
A cold and snowy kingdom most of the year, with a slushy spring for four months. They worship Twelve Saints and Three Devils, all historical figures that all lived once and are believed to have been transformed into deities upon death. Ardany is probably the oldest kingdom. It is allied with Xiang-Bao, also making them one of the strongest. It's surrounded by near-impenetrable mountains and the only safe way in (for friends) is through the Bao ports or the Yks Channel in the spring. In the winter, the very narrow sea pass becomes a death trap for any stray ships. Countless people have lost their lives in it.

Of course, it would be lovely if you could help me flesh out these countries a bit more.

I'll take a better picture of Ardany and Xiang-Bao tomorrow.

So I think Ardany is going to be sort of Russian with more traditional warriors, Xiang Chinese/Japanese with them fancy-pants warriors, and then Noxus with Nordic-type berserkers and such.

Do know that I've never really done a cruel character before, not really. More often, I go more with the honorable kind. Maybe not necessarily nice, but not cruel.

I was actually working on my first post, but I guess I'll work with that?

And yes. I love that you got it right away. Xiang-Bao is more like China. Kiba is definitely Japan, being an island and all. It mostly consists of feudal tribes. The only reason it's inhabited is because it's covered in mines, which are filled with precious minerals, gems, and salt. Ninety percent of the population is slaves. Also, I've added the picture for Ardany and Xiang-Bao. I had to walk to my friend's house and get sketch paper for new versions.

And he doesn't have to be cruel. Just kind of a dick works fine. xD

Also, sorry if I'm overbearing with assumptions- I'm making Noxus a bit more of an eternally-cold/cool Nordic area, since it's so far South relative to the other landmasses. Not exactly rain and snow, but more just a surprisingly lush cold taiga.

I don't want to make you get rid of yours, but it is very difficult to do this when I've always started before now. If you really don't mind, it would be lovely if I could start.

Oh, also Noxus isn't supposed to be cold. I've done a bit of work on that, and I've realized that for all the climates to be the way I've designed them, the tilt of their planet is a bit more extreme than Earth's. The sun is hitting on Noxus most of the year, but it does have a varied climate. It's a bit like southern North America in that regard.

I think I'm going to start us off where he actually isn't in the room when she wakes up. It'll let me post more than my usual one small paragraph.

I've actually got a story length document in my Google Drive. I'm going to paste the beginning in and revise it enough that it fits for this first post. It'll give you enough to reply to that you can respond normally, and we can keep trading off that way.

And before you maybe get your knickers in a twist, I won't be copy/pasting anything else. Just this first post. Which I just finished.

I don't, but it sounds weird enough for me to know I should.

Want me to give you some suggestions on how to introduce him, or it is just a matter of willpower?
