Your favourite settings? (worlds)
I have to agree with Ralf, my own setting, Virana, has to be my favorite. I loved the forgotten Realms for many years, that is where I started my journey, first by playing computer games like Eye of the Beholder, and later pen'n'paper games set there.
But, while all the detail is wonderful, I also found it a bit limiting in the end, so I created my own world and never looked back. It allowed me to make a world that was a perfect match to the campaigns I wanted to run.
I am not good at updating the Wiki, so only basic information and maps can be found there, but it is an overview at least.

[WIP] Wizard's Tower - Interior
I will need to design the small village the tower is in first. Do you think I need to do a more regional map, or will the village with the tower suffice?
I'd say that's up to you.
My general "rule" for the atlas is that if you map a feature, it needs an appropriate symbol on the parent map to be linked from, no placing something in an empty spot on the map just because it could conceivably be there. If no such symbol exist, an appropriate intermediate overland map needs to be made. Same for a map of a single place inside a settlement, a floorplan map shouldn't be linked directly from a city symbol on an overland map.
However, in this case, there is already a tower symbol on the overland map, so I have no issues linking your tower directly to this one. But if you want to make intermediate maps, be it overland and/or settlement that is great. After all, there is no rule to say there can't be a settlement around a tower, a symbol is often used to show the most prominent feature of the place after all.
