And here June starts with the one part of worldbuilding I haven’t actually done much for yet. (Despite, ya know, having a professional cartographer as my main character…) I had a basic map of my main country, at least in terms of the shape of the island, the biggest cities, and where the largest forests and rivers were located, but for the rest of the continent? Nothing. So today I sat down with my husband and we made a map for the continent where my current stories all take place.
It’s so cool to see this world coming to life! Concordia’s got the most detail, but I had some idea of what to do with Galanvoth and Montglace since those are the other two locations that have so far been relevant to the series. (Montglace is where the twins grew up, Galanvoth is where Firedrake was born and where Blythe lived for a while.) I haven’t named any of the other countries yet. Stars are capital cities, circles are large cities, Xs are potential locations (I’ll get to this in a minute), trees are forests, and upside down Vs are mountains. The squarish shape in the center is something we decided belongs on this continent: a neutral trade city/area. I’ll eventually add more dotted lines (large roads used for travel for trade) leading to this spot.
This RANDOM PLANT GENERATOR works a little differently from my other tables thus far, but after testing it on my group the other day it seems to work very well 🙂
I thought of this table over the weekends and after days of tinkering with the idea, I’ve come up with THIS!
Whether you are world building of just need to populate a forest or plant area, this table will create a something unique and possibly insane for your Dungeons & Dragons world!
As always, if you have any feedback, suggestions, ideas or REQUESTS about this table or future works, feel free to contact me here on Tumblr or on twitter at @ThatMurrayC !
Finally, I’d just like to say thank you all for the support you’ve shown towards these tables and my creativity! It really has been amazing to create resources for such a great community!
Maybe we enjoy drinking colder water because it gave early humans an indication of cleaner drinking sources such as rivers and streams, as opposed to stagnated water which is warmer and more abundant in microorganisms.

When people tell me, “Trust your gut! Follow your intuition!” Like, bitch, I have anxiety. My “gut” is usually telling me that everyone hates me and that I’m going to die. I can’t trust what that motherfucker tells me.
“mickey i am fed up wit your bullshit devil magic”
These shorts really are the best thing to have happened to Mickey’s character in ages.
you say this without acknowledging this was about taking goofy to see ‘potato land’ which he assumed was an amusement park (which was really a welcome to idaho sign) and his lifelong dream, so they have to BUILD a potato themed amusement park before goofy woke up from a nap
there was an entire episode (season one, episode one) where mickey and donald were denied service at a takeout restaurant because mickey has no shirt and donald has no pants so to get food they have to combine outfits, leaving one of them naked in a bush
or that they had an episode addressing goofy being a dog, and entering him in a dog show pluto was supposed to be in because he injured pluto rendering him unable to enter
and that on the command ‘beg’ he says ‘please take me back, i can change, she meant nothing to me’
Not for nothing, but in America, at least, there’s a strong trend of “unless you’re the BEST at it, you need to stop doing it.” Somewhere around 5th grade, kids get it into their heads that if they’re not some sort of art prodigy already, then pursuing it (and actually, y’know. Practicing and learning) is a foolish, childish notion.
The idea that someone could just do something for FUN? Not entertained.
It just dawned on me I was in love with my best friend 6 months ago. I didn’t really realise it at the time and it’s something that I really only kind of came to appreciate and understand now. My early twenties, I was an international disaster. I didn’t know myself and I was just listening to music that would try to appease the existential angst. But, I went through it and i’m here today. So, i’m fine.
