Ian Absentia Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 (edited) I'm dead serious. Because when someone mentions Sartarites and the Western US in the same sentence without being specific, I'm seeing hillbillies and Okies and thinking, "Yeah, that's about right." !i!

Presumably the climate, not the people. Which makes sense, since I gather than Kethaela is partially inspired by Californian sub-regions.

Presumably you miswrote Kethaela for Kerafinela, a name that's "California" badly disguised. 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Godspeed Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Kerofinela might be a mangled California, but I believe it's Kethaela that is based on lowland California. Mirrorsea is San Francisco Bay, I believe, rotated 90 degrees. And isn't Prax based on the terrain along the Californian-Baja Californian border? Also - yeah, Kralorela also closely mirrors California. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it was intended or not, but Prax (at least the Zola Fel valley) is pretty much the Palouse* of Eastern Washington. The visual and contextual puns on California and the SF Bay are much more obvious. [*Edit: I meant the Columbia Plateau and the channeled scablands in comparison to the Zola Fel. The Palouse might be more like Praxian prairie.] !i! Edited November 30, 2019 by Ian Absentia 1 Quote ...developer of White Rabbit Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
