| Somehow I have been helmed as driving force behind regional expansion and 3d mappings. To that end, I have several directions I can go in as far as active development. The mapping of Almeria into a 3d realm won't be happening for a while due to many issues involved with the server, lag, players bitching about the lag, and the fact that most other areas connect to Almeria, so I am basically running a duplication of everything on the mud while setting it up. While I am fixing those issues, I can start on a smaller project with a completely different flavour. I am not going to do either Amber or the Courts, since I think both are already claimed by far superior talent. What I can do would be something like an Oriental themed area to flesh out more of the Hanoma/Nihon aspect, or an Arabian themed area, a swamp themed area, a small moon, a cave expansion for the Underdark, an elven wooded glade, a tropical island somewhere, an underwater realm, the Plane of Fire, an expansion of the frozen north, the Plane of Negative Energy with all of its undeath, a desert continent like Tyr from the Dark Sun setting, an island chain similar to Earth Sea, a large island like Jurassic Park, a peninsula region like the Roman Empire, and Egyptian desert....there is a lot that can be added. Anyone have any input before I create another region that is 'completely useless'?--[[User:Bladestorm|Bladestorm]] 14:29, 27 March 2009 (EDT) | Somehow I have been helmed as driving force behind regional expansion and 3d mappings.
