Go here, no reason to create a thread.

I don'tknow how helpful this is but remember that you can get goofy and have fun. In my setting the fey are a displaced people who the "civilized races" banished to a pocket dimension.

Which is all well and good but it's been over 300 years and when my players accidentally opened a portal and the Wild Hunt came through it was a bunch of weirdly attractive people in fantasy disco gear blasting strange horns, two stepping and boogieing through the streets, and running people through with polearms.

I did nobody responded there for over an hour. no help is yet forthcoming.

OP here is a good map maker inkarnate.com/

It's easy to use and fun to work with

Here's my map that I am currently working on
pls donut steel

Is it a free tool?

Yep, 100% free

You should try asking specific questions.

A question like "help me build a world" is way too general for anyone to really help you, particularly in a /wbg/ thread.

Maybe try thinking of some things you'd like to have in your world, or think of things you have trouble doing like "How do I make realistic-looking continents?" or stuff like that.

At least have an idea of what kind of feeling you're going for, because for example for some people is great but other people want nothing to do with that kind of stuff.

>You should try asking specific questions.

This.

I'm happy to spend all day throwing ideas around, but it depends what you're looking for.

Elves that walk on the sky? Continents that randomly teleport without anyone noticing until they try to travel from one to another? Trees that burn forever due to combustible sap? A BBEG whose motive for destroying your home town is it's the source of a devastating plague and it's the only way to save the world?
