14 - The Ward of Chiezbehrg [J.Edward]

[Tonnichiwa]

Well then John, I have decided I am going to do both! I will make a map in CC3 and a map hand drawn. Crazy I know, but I just have to. I'm even thinking about doing one using the pre made symbols in CC3, then on using the drawing tools without pre made symbols in CC3+, then one using my only drawing program, Artrage Studio.

[J.Edward]

That sounds like a good bit of work, but I suspect it will lead to a really satisfying end result.
Like I said, I am here to offer what advice, help, and input that I can.

On a side note, your character [Tonnichiwa] is #16 Ihichi Wato, chronicler of Zahan and master scribe from far in the north

[Tonnichiwa]

Thanks John. I appreciate any help I can get from you. And the character you made sounds exactly like something I would be..hehe..though my penmanship is not so great IRL. Thanks John for such a wonderful persona in the Guild City

[Straf]

I started doing some of the information behind some of this section.
I now have a bit better of an idea about what goes on here.
It looks like this might be where the courts are as well as lawyers, bondsmen, bail and banking offices,
The Royal Bank, finance and market exchanges, tax bureau and other sundry accounting and money related affairs.
Oh and of course, the constables.

[SNIP]

And then there are some other less savory activities and personages and all.

[SNIP again]

I can't imagine what can be less savoury than bankers, lawyers and taxmen. Not even Lovecraft can imagine such horrors!

[Azélor]

Interesting idea.

You really have a lot of dormers, roofing all that will surely take ages!

[J.Edward]

I've been quite busy with work and have been a bit absent on discussions. Apologies.

Thanks John. I appreciate any help I can get from you. And the character you made sounds exactly like something I would be..hehe..though my penmanship is not so great IRL. Thanks John for such a wonderful persona in the Guild City

No problem I'm going to try to get as many personalities in here as I can, given work time and all.

Haha, too true, too true.

Interesting idea.
You really have a lot of dormers, roofing all that will surely take ages!

Yes, there are a lot. I looked at Oxford and a number of other European cities as some inspiration for rooflines.
Which was, of course, before you all had stated anything about the climate and culture seeming to be more like desert or jungle or whatnot.

But, I do my own thing most times, so no worries from me on that score.
The Guild is reasonably diverse, so it's city can be as well.

Anyhoo, here's a bit of an update.
Maybe a few new personages and then the map.
By the numbers [you'll have to refer to this map, as my current update has info turned off]
Oh, it should go without saying, all personages are just for fun, tongue-in-cheek as it were.
For example, Diamond is not an overloard.

01 - Larb - Ashmybral, traveling scribe and sometime wine merchant
02 - Diamond - Jahim Dimondi, wizard and overlord... sometimes works with crown forces of Zahan
03 - Bogie - Sir Bogramal, Subnuminary and Lord of Mahan [opposes the establishment forces of Zahan]
04 - ChickPea - Owner of the Reeky Bairn Pub, Rubyan Pea proprietor
05 - Chashio - The Haschon Kahti, artisan and peculiar arbitrator/mediator
06 - Ilanthar - Anathar Lin, warehouse owner and trader/merchant
07 - Arsheesh - Owner of the Philosopher's Mug tavern, Tadeesh Dar proprietor
08 - Domino - Dame Inos' Quille Shoppe, The Lady Moshe Inos proprietor
09 - Steffen Brand - the cave of Fen the Branded, outlander and one-time pen fighting scribe
10 - Tainotim - Timo Vestain, architect of Zahan

That's the first ten

Love it. And a good way to populate a map!

[Mouse]

Amazing! Just look at the detail beginning to emerge in the trees in that haunted graveyard. Its beautiful, John

[kacey]

OMG! That bottom section looks so good, you sure are giving us allot to live up to. My section is so not going to match beside this, I better start practicing some trees, and get my sizes right, my buildings look huge beside it.
