Hi everyone!I recently posted a work in progress image of a new region map I have commissioned from Misty Beee. You can find a 'brief' description of its history HERE and an updated WIP of the map below:

The full resolution version of this map will be released to all Patrons when it is finished.

The map will cover most of the locations I have created battlemaps for so far, combining them and their stories into a single 'world', and it will add in a whole bunch of new areas for us to explore over time.

Now we need to name this region. I had some great suggestions from the community and also have a couple of ideas of my own, and I would like you all to vote on what you think it should be called. You can also leave more ideas in the comment below. In world, this map has been drawn by the cartographers from the Dorric Empire, so the land may also have other names given by the other peoples who live here.

Sorry Tom, all the names don‘t catch me

You can recommend another if you like!

"Ormos" -- Greek word for "bay" or "Efforos" -- Greek for "fertile". You could mash it up with a truncated word for "region" and go with something like "Peri Ormos" -- when naming regions I usually pick a language with ancient roots, find some related meanings an create some combinations. That said, "Cartosia" is a good pun, and I voted for it. Happy Thanksgiving!

Cartosia—a fitting tribute to your craft!

Oronter - elivish for arose since this land arose (from people's perspective) from the ocean?

I like Atmorna, but the DawnLands sounds like a great name too…

It's evident Cartosia is going to win, although I would name "Cartosia" the whole world, not a region of it 😊

Great point. I've changed my vote!

The lands of Cartosia, on the planet Tomprak.
