What's your current favourite or preferred blank bodies?
Nuterra. Map of the world I'm creating for Dungeons & Dragons.
Next thing I need to do is figure out the main river systems on each continent.
Feedback welcome as always.
Quick Lore:
- There used to be only one god,
- That god got lonely so it fractured itself into 9 fragments.
- Now there are 9 main gods and each god has its own continent to rule over.
Scientific explanation:
- When this world formed, there was only one super-continent.
- Over time, the continents split into the nine continents we see today.
- North and South poles are mainly ice.
Does Barbas not follow you any more?
Haven't played in a long-long time. Felt the itch to play again.
Started Barbas' quest, picked him up and went on my journey.
Turned around and I can't see him any where.
It's been a couple of hours now. I thought he'd just pop up when I open a door to enter a new area like Lydia always does. Nope. No sign of him.
Does Barbas not follow you any more?
I haven't gone to the place I need to go to to complete his mission yet as I want to clear the quests around Falkreath first.
Let's share pictures of action figures on motorcycles. I'll start.
Here's my Maximum Spidey and Deadpool on 1:18 and 1:12 die cast motorcycles.
Please recommend to me your preferred map-making software.
Greetings fellow worldbuilders! I require a bit of your assistance.
To preface this, I am creating my world for D&D and other similar TTRPGs.
I plan to (hopefully) eventually publish this map on a wiki-like website or at least forward it to my players for them to be able to interact with.
As this is for D&D and TTRPGs, the ability to use the created map(s) for VTTs is a must.
It would be also great bonus if one could zoom out on the map for a world view and zoom in all the way to let's say a map view of a village.
- First Choice - Open source or free software
- Second Choice - Paid software. (Pay one time and be able to use forever)
- Last Resort - Subscription-based software. However I must be able to still use the maps when I eventually end the subscription.
I fairly know how to use photoshop and don't mind learning a bit of coding.
Even if the software has a high learning curve, as long as there are tutorials or guides for the software, I should be able to learn how to use it.
Do you know of any software or are currently using any software that fit the above criteria? I would be very grateful if you could recommend them to me.
Thank you in advance and good luck in your worldbuilding!
I was so excited to play D&D for the first time, I kitbashed this figure of my character.
Meet Bobarta "Bobert" Palaya.
I am playing him as a chatic good orc barbarian.
If I had to describe him in three words, they'd be big, strong and dumb.
I used a Mithril Action Studio Guardian of The Horde No.03 Master (World of Warcraft Samuro Blademaster) for the base.
He's wearing soft goods pants that came with the figure.
I got a softgoods cape and cloak to complete his look.
He is carrying a She-Spawn Battle-Axe from McFarlane Weapons Pack IV.
[OC] I was so excited to play D&D for the first time, I kitbashed this action figure of my character.
Meet Bobarta "Bobert" Palaya.
He is a full-orc barbarian.
If I had to describe him in three words, they'd be big, strong and dumb.
He's supposed to be a lawful good character because he had good upbringing but he's so dumb that he keeps on doing the wrong thing at the wrong time, I feel like he's more of a chaotic good character.
I'm not going to reveal his backstory just in case my party members read this. No spoilers guys!
I love orcs and I took inspiration from Critical Role's Grog Strongjaw and Oxventure's Dob.
We've had two sessions so far and he's done his fair bit of dumb things. He already did a Dob and almost killed a party member in the first session.

I'm having a lot of fun with the character and the action figure. I can't wait for the weekly sessions.
What factors do you heavily take into consideration when deciding where to place cities on your world map?
Edit: Okay. This blew up. Thank you for all the answers. It'll take me a while to go through and respond to them. I really appreciate this, Thank you again.
TLDR: See world map. Where to place cities? Medieval ages.
I am at the stage of worldbuiling where I am about to place encampments, settlements, villages and cities on the map of my world.
I have basic ideas on where these should be placed based on various factors.
My intention in asking this to all of you is to see if there are any factors that I may have missed out or not personally thought of.
For reference, below is a gist of my world:
- Takes place on Earth 250 million years in the future.
- The continents have merged to form the super-continent of Pangea Proxima/Ultima
- Magic exists
- A lot of fantasy races, creatures and deities similar to Dungeons and Dragons lore.
- Countles cataclysmic events that "rebooted" the world back to the equivalent of the stone ages.
- The world is currently in the stage where it would be equivalent to our medieval ages.
- Cross ocean travel has not been discovered yet.
- Most of the inhabitants believe the world is flat.
- There exists a network of interconnecting massive caverns that cris-cross under the whole super continent. Nobody knows exactly how deep they go or what dwells there. (Similar to the Underdark from D&D.)
Attached is an image of how the world looks like. Not my image. I did a google search for Pangea Proxima/Ultima and that is what I found.
My world map will be based on this map. The main difference is that the areas nearer to the poles will be colder and be in perpetual winter similar to our North and South Poles. Also the areas nearer to the equator will be warmer and not go through the 4 seasons. Basically summer all year round similar to our tropical areas near the equator.
Thank you in advance.
My First Custom Team
Got everything you see here from Ali. I'm in Asia so shipping from Ali is cheap as balls for me.
Works in progress and my first time painting.
Got these blank bodies from Ali.
Painted for the first time today. Definitely learnt a few good lessons from the mistakes I made. I definitely have much more respect and appreciation for those of you who are good at painting.
Waiting on some soft goods and accessories and I should be done with these 3.
For the record, I don't know if these are KO or legit but it feels to me that the Romankey might be KO and the other two might be legit. The build quality just feels cheap on the Romankey but feels good on the Muff Toys and Wind Toys.
And yes, the Romankey does come with the sausage and eggs. I'm tempted to post pics of them but i don't know how reddit and the mods might react to that.
Any tips on get these two pegs back in the holes other than using heat?
Trying to swap out the feet on my Muff Toys Adam and put on the boots.
I had to remove the pegs to remove the bottom attachment part of the original feet (flesh coloured) so that I can use the bottom attachment part for the boots (grey).
Both the pegs and the holes/slots are hard plastic. It keeps on swivelling around when I try to push it back into the hole.
I tried heating them up with near boiling water but they still feel as hard as they are when cold.
I can't put it into the boots first as the attachment is a softer plastic and it will just push the peg deeper into the boot.
I want to try to avoid using hard tools like pliers as I want to try to avoid damaging the plastic.
Any tips on how to do these?
For context, it is a Muff Toys Adam figure and AT Story boots.
