Boldhome 1622

Posted on April 9, 2024

In early 1622, Boldhome is an occupied city, the center of Lunar administration for Sartar, Prax, and Heortland. Malkonwal and the Hendriki have been defeated, but there are still some 20,000 Lunar…

Wilmskirk II

Posted on June 3, 2023

Boldhome is a big city, at some 10,000 people it is the second biggest city in Dragon Pass. The other cities founded by Sartar and his family are smaller – between 2100…

Tarsh (1625-1628)

Posted on March 8, 2023

Hero Wars era Tarsh (post-Dragonrise, pre-Battle of Heroes) has a population of about 360k people. The core of Tarsh is a Lunar Heartlands colony centered on Furthest. There is a smaller satellite…

Quivin Mountains II

Posted on November 29, 2022

The Quivin Mountains are a massif of the Storm Mountains, a subrange separated from the main range by the 1000 meter high Sambarri Pass. The subrange is quite small, only about 35…

Pockets of Boldhome III

Posted on August 19, 2021

Almost a third of the population of Boldhome lives in the East and West Pockets of the city. These dwarf-made complexes are carved out of the stone of the valley’s wall, and…

Quivin Mountains & Boldhome map

Posted on June 30, 2021

Getting closer on the Sartar Book, and have some proof of concept of some of the handouts that people might enjoy seeing. The Quivin Mountains are a spur off the Storm Mountains….

Boldhome Map Preview III

Posted on June 16, 2021

As Matt Ryan and I continue to work on the Boldhome foldout map for the Sartar boxed set, we’ve made a few tweaks based on Greg’s notes. Greg really insisted that the…

Pockets of Boldhome I

Posted on June 11, 2021

Of all the unique architectural elements of Boldhome, the Pockets are to me the most fascinating. Dwarf-made and carved deep into the mountain cliffs, they are an impossible combination of the facades…

Quivin Mountains Map WiP Preview II

Posted on June 11, 2021

Boldhome is the largest settlement in Sartar, comparable in size to all of the other cities of Sartar put together. It is the religious, political, commercial, and cultural center of the kingdom…

Boldhome Map Preview II

Posted on May 12, 2021

Boldhome Map Preview I

Posted on May 7, 2021

This is a work in progress for the Sartar box, but Matt Ryan and I are working on a street map of Boldhome. Combined with Olivier Sanfilippo amazing Boldhome map, this will…

Quivin Mountains Map WiP Preview I

Posted on April 21, 2021

So in order to do the street map of Boldhome we had to get a better feel for the Quivin Mountains. And we kind of went overboard on information – but here’s…

Sartar Map Update II

Posted on November 27, 2020

The Master Map is nearly done. All hail the mighty Matt Ryan for his tireless work on this (he’s put in many hundreds of hours of work on this). This clip represents about 8%…

Muse Roost

Posted on November 21, 2020

I think Sir Ethilrist may have ended up with the most picturesque real estate in Dragon Pass. Muse Roost really is more like Neuschwanstein meets Gormenghast than I could have ever imagined….

Northern Sartar & Tarsh Map preview

Posted on November 3, 2020

So to give you an idea how big this map is going to be, here’s a printout of the WIP, with the RuneQuest Core rules for scale. And that’s the scale we…

A Tale of Two Maps

Posted on November 1, 2020

The map of Dagori Inkarth from Trollpak was IMO the best single campaign map Chaosium ever published. Even better than the Elder Wilds maps from Griffin Mountain. Clear, informative, and with loads…

Sartar Map Update I

Posted on October 1, 2020

BTW, this is only about 20% of the map we are putting together right now. Not every village is going to get named. The intent is to give folk freedom to have…

Two Ridge Fort

Posted on September 21, 2020

A nice detail of the area around Two Ridge Fort, showing the villages of the Malani and Cinsina tribes. The fields are not intended to be a specific amount, although they general…
