Dedicated to the subject of world building of the AA universe.

I have created an editable google document that will provide links to pictures and information on specific world building elements. The document is set up where each AA city has its own set of general categories, ie architecture, geography, items. Within those categories can be specific themes ie 1800s london architecture, 1800s factories. This is meant to be used to get a general idea of the AA world, from landscapes and architecture to clothing and food. Hopefully, the mods can take a look to make sure everything is within AA limits or even add their own references (I know tusa is well developed). I'll kick things off with Koben. There will be links that will have a general overview of a subject; those should be a good starting point for deeper research for specifics.

Reference document

I encourage everyone to contribute as I believe this can benefit everyone.
Also, we can discuss stuff we find on this thread too.

I had some stock photos I fav'd on DA to use as references for Iadlain and a few places. Should I share them on this document?

-- EDIT --

I've made a special folder of all of the references I've used for locations/ scenes when thinking of AA:

Most are for Iadlain, Reluir, and Koben. But there's a few for Song-Lu and Tusa. I'm not adding the images directly to the document because they are LOTS AND LOTS plus I'm not sure which ones the mods would deem best suited for it.

Part of my sailing ship reference collection for my Mutiny art: sta.sh/2kovn4ohsx7. These ships would likely be more for the Kingdom as I thought Koben was more steam-oriented. IDK...

The rest is in my favorites but it is buried deep in one of my stock folders -_-

Might take a while to sift through those to add on the document but posting on the thread should be just as accessible.

Brother's Bounty

12th Feb - 25th Feb
Delverne
A long winter has lead to dwindling stockpiles of food throughout the Cantish countryside. Although the problem is not as severe as a famine, peasants are finding themselves less comfortable than in previous years. Affected communities appeal to their leaders, only to receive excuses about food being diverted to the military for the good of the Kingdom. Fortunately, Cantor has a close and long-time ally in Delverne. The elvish state is happy to share supplies, pledging the surplus from public storehouses and organizing a food drive among the Delvan citizens...
