Thats not already there?

Or is there anything you'd like to be expanded upon..........or finished ( I've got a few unfinished bits....)

Source material for different geographical regions\cultures. In the style of this page:

http://dragonwarriors.wikifoundry.com/page/History+and+Culture+of+Algandy

Facts, stats and rules are one thing, but what makes DW special is the myth and folk lore of Legend. Capturing the haunted hunted feeling in the descriptions of mythic creatures and cultures is what stands DW apart from its FRPG peers. For me, anyway.

Hello,
my answer to your post

I know some people did their own maps for their campaign. I saw an interestin map of Breylak area (from dreadnought, not sure) in a blog (I m interesting by all the maps everyone did for his scenarrii).
Except north Albony, Glissom, cornumbria (thanks to Ordo draconis), Legends miss a lot of regional maps...

Do you think, till they draw official maps, Serpent king games woud be offended if people share their game tools on the wiki? (I know copyryright of maps are important ...)

I've done a fair bit in that area, look under "bulya" but I can certainly do more. :)

I love drawing maps, but they are very time-consuming. There's no copyright issue with making maps so long as you don't take a direct copy of original artwork (even tracing a map doesn't count as copying for the purposes of copyright). With regional maps outside Ellesland, there is the lack of canonical source material to place settlements, etc., so all you end up with is a zoomed in map of the same featureless space.

If you're looking for maps, though, there are some sites out there with some good content, in addition to the Wiki:
My own mapping projects have turned from overland maps into recreating some of the scenario maps that are either difficult to read in the new editions (Sleeping Gods) or just don't fit with the wider environment (Elven Crystals - since when has Glissom had a south coast?)

Does anyone know of any other site on the Internet with maps of Legend?

Thank you, unfortunately, i have all of them, :/ . Except if Dreadnought could give me his Breylak area map (I used screen print and paint...) and the background around, it would be nice (Ihaven t dowoaded Ongus yet).

Personnaly, I found an old fashioned map of the Rathursborsk on a german website with no captions , if anyone is interested.

Yeah, definitely, if anyone has maps ( I dont know maybe one for the Thulan campaign..), I m inteesting by everything, and it would add good material for the wiki.

The creator of that map, Dirk Remmecke, kindly gave me permission to use and adapt that map.

If someone would like to nominate a geographical region that needs attention I'll get to it ASAP. :)

I'm still developing Breylak during the course of the game - and there's some details I don't want my players to know yet either but...

The Barony of Breylak is a reasonably prosperous barony in eastern Albion. Notable for being ruled by Carmella, Baroness of Breylak, one of the few women to control a sizeable area of Albion.

The Lady Carmella Stagborn is the current Baroness of Breylak, having inherited the position from her father about five years ago. Some had doubts about a woman ruling in her own right, but the Stagborn lineage is one of the oldest in Albion – by tradition it dates back to before the time that the Selentine Empire took Albion – and Carmella was the only clear choice that would maintain her family’s connection to these lands. For many of the older families in the region, having a Stagborn in power carries some sort of special significance. She is now 26 years old, and still unmarried and childless, and some people are becoming concerned at whether she will carry on the line at all.

Carmella is a strong ruler. She is by no means cruel but she is definitely sure that she is in charge of her Barony and makes sure others understand that as well. She travels around the Barony regularly.
