> Located in the Peruvian Andes in Cusco just 3 hours away from the historical center, Rainbow Mountain is becoming the main attraction to see after or before Machu Picchu. As you could guess, the mountain is famed for its natural, multi-colored beauty at a staggering 5,200m above sea level. This rainbow-like appearance is created by the sediment of minerals throughout the area giving the mountain the turquoise, lavendar, gold and other colors.

> It was only recently discovered due to the snow melting revealing the hidden gem that’s still considered holy by many until this day. Since its discovery, Rainbow Mountain as slowly started gaining popularity and has even been listed in National Geographic’s “Top 100 Places To Visit Before You Die”.

>People live in villages and towns atop the many mesas.
>The single local city, Adulum, is a mess of rope bridges connecting the top of a hundred buttes.
>The lack of suitable wood and soil, plus the high heat makes it so people dig out their homes and palaces from the soft rock instead of building anything, except for the temples. Those are built with great blocks of salt.
>Underground aquifers provide water through wells and cenotes, both for people, yam farms, and the iguanas which provide meat. Some cenotes are used to breed armored eels and arm-sized shrimps.
>The communities use great drums to message each other.
>The local resources precious enough to be exported are salt, obsidian, sulfur, troglodyte slaves, potash, brass crafts and emeralds.
>They import wood, silk, cowry shells and iron.

>Armor is seldom used, but large shields are very prized, specially if they are made from the colorful scales of shadow-eating nkala snakes. Both the snakes and the shields are capable of storing and discharging sunlight in the form of flashes that might blind someone. The difference is that once the snake does this upon someone, his or her shadow disapears forever, leading to the loss of sanity and vital force. The nkala shields are used to stun troglodytes, making them easily capturable.

It's a useless and arbitrary word that I wouldn't grieve if people stopped using it tomorrow.

Yeah that's a good inspiration for a fantasy local- the only river in the world that ends without hitting a lake or the ocean.

In Antarctica there is a bleeding blood-lake that leaks out into the sea. That's what it's actually called, and it looks like a glacier is bleeding. In actuality it's a frozen over lake filled to the brim with red algae, but it still looks like a glacier is bleeding.

A more mundane one, but on the US Eastern Seaboard, particularly in the southern states there's the Fall Line, which is where it's many rivers terminate from being navigable to sea-vessels to not, and it's where most of the South's major cities lie, as it's the natural area for trade inland to meet a port and meats trade from the seas. It limited colonial expansion up until the American Revolution- and I think it's a good worldbuilding trick when making a map.

Also pic-related is the Sir Walter Scott Monument in Edinburgh Scotland. Even as a child I thought it was something out of a fantasy movie. It's a monument to a famous Scottish poet credited with helping reinvigorating scottish culture, and it's the tallest building in the city, outside of the Castle and a lighthouse. One of it's legs is the staircase you can take to the top, and I've personally been up it, the rain and tourist foot-traffic has made the steps extremely sloped, it feels dangerous to walk up, and the corridor at the top is so thin that I think anyone generally fat won't make it through- I found it claustrophobic, and I'm thin as a rail.

I've had a search for scientific papers and geologic maps of the area, but couldn't find any on the topic (or maybe they're in Spanish). If you have tilted strata then then you've probably got a fold somewhere (either a syncline, anticline or even a monocline), and the geology of Peru has been completely crunched and bent into all sorts of funny shapes by the compressive forces that formed the Andes. From looking at the geology on the satellite, it appears to be part of a huge E-W or NE-SW running syncline (well, synform technically since we don't know for sure that it's the right way up) with its axis to the north. You can see more of the structure in this photo of the mountain just to the ENE of it, though the turning-up of the layers on the left side of the photo appears to be a parasitic fold (i.e. a secondary fold embedded within a larger one).

>serious issues with your own imagination and using it.
There's no better way to stimulate one's imagination by using something that *actually exists* as a springboard. We're not copying real life geography wholesale, we're adding to reality.

If I were to come up with a place completely out of thin air, it would no doubt be in some way subconsciously influenced by a place I have heard of or been to. There is no possible way you can be 100% creative. Anything we make ultimately derives from reality in the end, so there's no need to fuss about whether something is creative or not.

The OP post features a symbiotic termite human civilization, ffs. Isn't that creative enough for you already?

>>80166405
>serious issues with your own imagination
Well exfuckingscuse me for not fitting your arbitrary standards on how I should write bits of lore. Maybe I should instead come up with ideas straight out of the void, influenced by absolutely nothing in the universe and perhaps by having shit I make filtered through infinite layers of abstraction, I will have fulfilled your standards of what "creativity" is.

>>80166405
>fantastical from the get-go?
Because reality is our springboard. There is no way around it. It just so happens that real world inspiration is quite useful.

It has always been this way for as long as mankind has existed. Fantasy is not so much the creation of an entirely new thing than it is viewing the world a certain way and letting your imagination run loose with what you have already perceived.

>Do you have autism?
Yes. I do. I was diagnosed with it when I was 5.

>Are you poorly read?
I have a shit ton of secondhand novels at home. My favorite authors are China Mieville and Fritz Leiber. I was at the top of my class in high school when it came to English, and I still am in University.

>Did you never left your hometown?

Humans living in hilly and mountainous areas literally went "fuck nature I want to grow shit here" and using iron and bronze tools terraformed vast swathes of countryside in a middle finger to nature.

Do anyone have any advice for modifying IRL maps, like picture related, to use them for fantasy settings please? Like, just enough so it’s recognizable if you look, but not immediately obvious?

>>80147581
I like this. If you made this, good job on making interesting labels and placenames.

>>80182696
If you want it to still be recognizable, just rotate it, reverse symmetry, add or remove some bits, change size

I'm in eastern Europe, cunt, I've met all sorts of christcucks and let me tell you, you all suck equally

Really the issue is which christians are fundamentalists. When a christian, or anyone else religious, just believes in some wacky sky-god, but otherwise doesn't expect you to follow their religious codes, or thinks believing in a sky-god makes them better than other people, then they're decent folk. I volunteered at a soup kitchen in a scotland church, bumped elbows with some nuns, and they were fantastic people, totally chill with me being an athiest.

Personally I think the problem with religion as a whole is that as more and more people are becoming religious, it means that more and more of the dialogue proportionally is taken up by fundamentalists. So increasingly fundamentalists are dominating the discussion within religious circles.

That sounds... counter-intuitive.

Surely when the religion has very small followings, only people who take it hard core are going to be there. And when religion goes mainstream, lot of people who are not that much into it will flood the organization...?

How old are you honestly?

This is more of a specific practice / location than a locale or environment, but it's still pretty cool:
>The cremated remains of the deceased are mixed with cement to build statues
>Said statues are then emplaced in the sea with plaques memorializing the deceased
>The statues then form the supporting structures for the development of coral and associated communities
Might be an interesting feature for a maritime/nautical culture, as a development or alternative to burials at sea.

Sorry, I mistyped- I meant to say irreligious- as in either agnostic or athiest. No religion is currently the fastest growing religion in the united states.

Are there any good free programs or sites that would be helpful for that, and seeing how the changes would affect the environment, beyond just Photoshop?

>>80187397
Seconding, does anyone have anything like that please?

No. Doing it any other way is psychologically impossible. There is no possible way to mentally visualize anything without using real world references, if not fictional references, which are all in one way or another ultimately derived from real life itself.

Why the fuck do you bitter cynical egotistical fuckwits instantly assume people are trying to steal your precious ideas? Why do you shit your pants and cry every time you see an inoffensive prompt that you are well within your rights to ignore?

A setting doesn't belong to just one person here, it belongs to everyone. Nobody is asking you to build a setting for them. /tg/ has always been about people coming together to pool their ideas into something that works. If everyone were cunts like you, CATastrophe and Galgeleth would never exist.

Hindus believe that you earn class, called vajra, and that the earned circumstances, prakhrya, literally translates to privilege.
Karma is fundamentally hinging on privilige.
