Locations on Maps


Lost Omens Products

The Exchange

I am writing to ask that, in future products, if there is a location specified on a map in a product, that it at the very least get a single paragraph physically describing the location, as well as the predominant inhabitants.

Using Heart of the Jungle as a source, I had the PC’s land in the small dot of Hyrantam on their way to Jaha. While I now understand this is a part of the Sodden Lands, I first noticed it in this book. Having no information, I decided that it would be a bayou-like port, as that seemed to fit the general landscape.

Out comes the Inner Sea guide… and I discover that the place has lots of big towers… and web-like rope connections between them that the residents live in, and that it is a very dangerous place.

I am left with 2 choices in-game: go back, retcon, and completely change the experience my players had, or keep in mind that it is completely different from what I had expressed to my players and hope they never find out (and I now need to remember that it is different for any future visits…).

Please, just a little note is all I ask for.

But the question that comes is what do you want removed from the book to make room for all the one paragraph fillers for the dots?

you could also use the wiki link to Hyrantam article with information from original campaign setting the get that info quickly in a game.

And we're more than happy to accept more contributors into our ranks! We're about to start an initiative to get all of the information from the Inner Sea Guide in as quickly as possible.

I would give up some extra detail on some of the bigger locations, or an archetype, or extra gear, or extra spells or extra monsters...

As for the Wiki, I'm not sure how it is for taking content from books that Paizo doesn't release on their own...
