Latitude and Longitude


Lost Omens Campaign Setting General Discussion


Hello everyone,

I have a spreadhseet that randomly generates weather and sunrise/sunset and aside from terrain and time of year, it also takes into account the latitude and longitude of the location.

So, I am running Carrion Crown for my peeps and I was wondering if anyone knew what the lat and long is for Ravengro as well as any information concerning which real world city the weather would be closest to.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

We actually haven't officially nailed down latitudes and longitudes in print for Golarion yet.

But if and when we do, I suspect we'll be placing Longitude 0 at Absalom, which would probably make Ravengro at Longitude 12 W.

As for Latitude... my best guess there for Ravengro would probably be about 46 to 47 degrees north.

Of course... those figures are subject to change if and when we ever DO nail down these coordinates for Golarion.


That is good enough for government work. Thanks!

Do have any suggestions for comparative real world cities, weather wise?

Small British villages from Hammer Horror movies.

Where did you find the spread sheet. I use to have a really nice program that did all that and could make weather patterns for a month at a time. It was a really nice program. How ever years ago my PC died and I lost it and I have never found it again. So wondering if what you have is it.

Hm, not sure I can look up 'Small British Villages from Hammer Horror movies' on Weather.com. :)

So any "inland" British town will work?

It's just a spreadsheet I acquired years ago based on the weather generator tables in 'Gamemaster Law' from Roelmaster. I can send you a copy, I believe I have in fact. Just drop me an email at jyarnell (at) d-3games (dot) com

Sure, why not?


Might I suggest Princetown on Dartmoor in Devon. It has its fair share of rain, mist and Fog which should be quite atmospheric.

Groovy, thanks folks.


Of course, if you want it to be ALWAYS raining, just base it on Manchester!
