  2. Remain on-topic. Worldbuilding contains many areas of interest, so, when in doubt, explain how your contribution fits within worldbuilding.
  3. Give context in the comments of your post. This will help your audience engage with your creation and encourage interaction.
  4. Tag posts as NSFW if they contain images or discussion of extreme violence or explicit sexuality.
  5. Advertising should not disrupt the community. Self-promotion of projects related to worldbuilding are fine. However, you must be willing to engage with your audience.
  6. Love each other. There's a human on the other side of your screen, so treat them with respect.

Made a map labeled with my very basic conlang (beehaw.org)

Well, I made this a while ago - I've been neglecting this particular worldbuilding project - but I thought I'd post it anyway.

I started out drawing the tops of mountains and then the rest ended up being a lot more detailed, eventually maybe I'll go back and make the style match better there.

The conlang is not particularly sophisticated, I've basically developed it enough to come up with proper names for places and people.

A lot of the worldbuilding I'm interested in is less building an entire world, and more like building a central location. This is a sort of fantasy post apocalyptic location (created first for a D&D adventure) inspired some of the dry inland regions of California near where I live.

Cool. Do you have a translation for the names in this? Oh and roughly how big is this region?

I do! I even made an English translated map. Although now that I look at it again, I hate the font I chose then

I don't have a scale really, but it takes about a day to travel between the red dots in the upper left hand corner on horseback
