#Inktober Day 29 - Double / Technology


Those who exist in the most high-tech realms, rarely know that their lives are reflections of possible future realities and dreams. Existence for them is just the same daily routines that they have known all their lives. If reality shifts around them, their memories will change, and they will always remember things that may or may not gave been a part of their lives yesterday. Quantum ripples shift their existence, but they never feel them.

The awakened citizens of these realms know better.

There is a lucrative trade in technologies that have yet to be developed in the physical plane as well as those that should not ever be brought into existence. The ultraviolet market specialises in trading these goods to visitors who might scatter them across the realms. Such items might include energy infused bio-locked swords that might only be drawn from stones by those with the right DNA markers, or symbiotic realm hopping devices with chameleon circuits locked to match a 1950s British Police box...

...anything is possible for the right price.

A Guide to Geomorphs (Part 7)

A working computer and scanner...that means it is time to get back to work on the geomorph sequence. A lot of the discussion in this set of tutorials has been focused around square geomorphs. They're the easiest for most people to wrap their heads around.  But my preferred form of geomorph is based around the hexagon, these tend to produce more organic and interesting shapes. This is true for natural environments, but it's no less true for urban environments. The example set of geomorphs above as a simple two-phase system. One edge type is plain, the other edge type has a road piercing the centre. There could be dozens of combinations and permutations for each of the two phases around the hexagonal edges, but a quick look at the variety of buildings and road shapes shows that there could literally be hundreds of possible options when drawing these map fragments. But you certainly don't need to create hundreds of designs for the system to be effective. Usin...

A Guide to Geomorphs (Part 1)

After numerous requests to get back to map tutorials, it's time to start our new series. This time focusing on the concept of geomorphs, modular map fragments that can be mixed and matched. We'll start with a couple of theoretical tutorials before sinking into a few more practical posts. I'm predicting a dozen or so posts in this sequence, but let's see how long it lasts.
