I am actually making them more on a insect template - this is a leather skinned, egg laying, reptilian creature, but with three parts to their body - head, thorax (with lungs) and abdomen (with tail) and six limbs and many of this group also have wings - certainly the sentient species does. A different evolutionary biology to reptiles and insects on earth, but combining features of both. They are actually the original land dwelling sentient species on this planet - the humans, elves and orcs derive from human species on Earth, stranded millennia ago on this planet, and evolving in different ways (helped by genetic modification in the very early years of human settlement - technology now lost to time). Dwarves, with radio-resistance, albino features, thin bodies and cat-like night vision, are derived from yet another planet, having settled the underground regions long before human arrival about 20,000 years ago.

So, not your standard Lizardman-dragon, or dwarf.

Here is continuation of mapping in full detail the large Island of Hardin - two Nordic Kingdoms, but with a predominant Slavic population. (think the early days of Kyivan Rus)

Here is a small addition to the map, detailed - the Lineala Islands - only 1 is inhabited by humans. One contains a interdimensional Rift, another has an elven settlement.

The Aeifa - 'elves' of Ukadarlia. These really are just a human variant, though more so than the other human ethnic groups. They have purple eyes, and can see into the UV range; they nearly always have red hair; and are very tall and very thin. They have extended life spans up to 300 years, due to biochemical changes that slow aging.

Here is the first update on a more ordinary part of the city. I used the house tool almost exclusively, to keep as much to the Watabou layout as possible. The only special building is the Temple in the lower left hand corner.

I will next concentrate on all the street furniture and background - dirt, grass, mud etc.

Finally, I will do the text, labels, and also use the city commands to assign buildings to various function types.

So far, no slowing of speed in redrawing. with all effects on.

An update - only text to go, I think. Hope there are plenty of interesting places to explore, but I won't be doing map notes.

The wharf area done, showing the main industry of the town - fishing, and fish processing. Fish paste - yum yum. 🤮

And cute thatched cottages with their gardens - the villagers are proud of their community, though they hate their oppressors.

Here is a setting for a series of low level adventures to get a beginner D&D party on its way to fame and glory ... or grisly death.

Kalihirin Island (nowhere near complete, of course). Of course, adventure sites etc are yet to be added.

Detkhiv, the main settlement with a population of over 600.

I have made use of the draft version of the Watabou revised city annual to come later this year.

Update on the village.

Guards' House should be custodum Domus; The plural of Stable is Stabulae. Love the design.
