I have like one main continent with four major countries, The North, (technically a bunch of different countries but generally just grouped together) and one major island

@GoblinKing

I'm really only working on one huge-ass city resembling Vegas on crack, full of West Side Story-esque turf wars.

@GoblinKing

@PastelMoons I would read the shit out of that.
Also "Vegas on Crack" ?! XD Describe that for me!!!

Ok, so it's around 189 times the population of Vegas (12 mil VS ~632K), and it's FULL of crime. Did I mention that these gangs may or may not be werewolves? It's described as this giant-ass city constantly blaring bass and neon lights.

@GoblinKing

Okay, that is very much Vegas on Crack. But it feels like it needs more…

Yeah, it really does. Still working on that.

Yeah, it really does. Still working on that.

Maybe you could add some really weird shit, like how the moment birds enter the city, they turn around and upside down and fly that way. They're normal with everything else, but when they fly they're flying backwards and their upside down. Something like that.

Thats acutally a good idea fuck

@garbage-owo

@PastelMoons Maybe everyone at the bars and stuff looks like someone you know. Not exactly like them, but enough familiarities so that it's uncomfortable.

I'm making a fake Eastern European post-soviet state called Krovinaja. Lots of Joke names ("Pűkkě, Ěkołi, and Geigerkount" are some of the tamer examples) and general government incompetence (Citizens have a constitutional right to drive a tractor while drunk.)

@Darkblossom group

I’ve literally decided to encompass all my universes into one multiverse, meaning they are all connected, meaning i get to have lots of fun! And then i have the beings allowed to traverse universes besides their own…everything is connected. EVERYTHING

@Yamatsu

I've got a few separate continents, though one is mostly fleshed out at this point. There are capital cities, landmasses, a freaking Sandship, three different races (humans, dragons, and wyverns), and, like, a bazillion different weapons!

@ClayCreature

I'm working on a pretty big universe. There are multiple realms but I'm only working on one where my story takes place. I have cities/regions based off of mythology/history I find interesting (like ancient greece), and/or based off of elements and seasons. Right now I have three regions, a marshy wetland, a greek summer area, and a frozen desert region that the demons inhabit. I also have a northern and southern area for a race that lives in a time distorted area to ward off threats. I have 7 races, sirens, demons, cyclops, a minotaur/centaur mix, and of course humans. The seventh one is a made up race called The Mune. They're an entire paragraph and more alone, so I won't delve into them. The realm that is the center of the story is a magical one, and the main character is a reincarnation of a once very powerful witch, so the MC can travel between her realm and the magical one. I have like two handfuls of flora and a few original species for the story, such as silver nosed binterins. Those are like overgrown, fuzzy ant eaters. I also role reversed with two animals, where bioluminescent jellyfish float around in the air and fireflies populate the ocean.

@Morals-are-for-mortals language

I have a single planet, in its own universe so far, with 3 versions/multiverses, and the planet has one or two large continents (forgot-) with 8 different "realms" on the planet. One of these realms is only partially connected to the world, and partially in a different dimension of existence as it's basically their version of hell and where the god of darkness is trapped. And then there's orbit, which is pretty much the version of heaven in a different dimension entirely and only connects to the world through the "hell" realm. This is where the god of light resides. 7 realms, with distinct and unexplained weather differences regardless of where they are on the planet, also have entire civilizations spread throughout them. These civilizations are usually not tied to a specific realm, with a couple exceptions. It's great.
