Map ideas, and further details on areas.

So the map thing did not happen this week.  Or last week.  blargh.  I think that is the technical term.  However I think I have come up with a few other things.

First, pertaining to the whole map and how such a strange environment developed.  Basically a meteor. Hit ocean and collided with the edge of a continent, that's how the thing has at least shallow water over the whole surface and all these crazy environments.  The entire meteor is completely honey combed with caves and tunnel systems, which is why you can almost travel everywhere underground.  Water gets sucked up, spit out, stagnates, and everything else through these tunnels.


A situation has been developed for Green.  Farming and way of life is dependent upon relationship with unicorns.  The unicorns are literally burned by the touch of a non-virgin, so the culture has developed toward, late in life marriage, and fewer, later births.  This results in population decline, and weddings being an unhappy event instead of a joyous one.

There really isn't much a stigma against losing your virginity so much as a preference for your relationship with your unicorn.  The people tend to pair up with one or two unicorns and form a very close bond early in life.  And the relationship with the unicorns makes life so much more convenient.  They can walk on water, easing transportation, purify water which allows the farmers to farm many things that can't be grown anywhere else in the area. 

The unicorns are fully sentient and as upset about the population decline of their humans and the virginity problem as the humans.  They know that this problem has only been going on for the past four or five generations though and believe that there is something causing non-virgins to burn the unicorns.  Still working on how to get the rumor to the party, but I'm going to have the item be made of silver, and therefore really precious in this almost metal free enviroment....or maybe iron and allow them to have weapons made form it...I think I'll leave that open to what the party would like more.


I think the item will also be a cap on a pyramid (short dungeon)...placed there by the same necromancer baddie that is currently in Gray...might make a way to have the whole thing interconnected, but I don't think that matters at all till I see how the players are going to be.

I think I will also have them be greeted by a NPC and invited to a wedding upon entering the area.
Other than mapping and Npc's to be rolled I think I've got what I need for Green. Only 12 more city-states to go....
