2021-09-05 Meeting Summary - Othreleth Woods claims

Proposed Agenda

Unless another topic comes up, we will sort out designs for NPC claims for Thirr Valley and exterior claims for Othreleth Woods. Otherwise, the longer-standing agenda points might be discussed in some capacity:

Future Releases

  • Sorting out which cites have which guild halls
    • Thieves Guild
    • Morag Tong
    • How much do the Temple and Cult need this?
  • Resolving more Imperial Cult issues, perhaps up to a Template Meeting
    • IC shrines start appearing in Thirr Valley and need a better overarching characterisation
    • The faction endgame
  • Same thing for the Psijjic Order.
    • Requires Infragris and a whole lot of lore-aware people.

Meeting Notes

Miscellaneous Issues

  • The locations of Ald Lambasi and Ferventhil were never finalized in prior discussion. (See OW 02)
  • Some cliff layers in Shipal-shin will get corrected, as they don’t follow the general guidelines for cliff layering.
  • A Daedric ruin in SH_08 is missing an entrance and should get one, as well as a named exterior cell. There’s a small ruin in SH_06 that is right on the cell border, so probably won’t get a named cell. It will have a small interior that transitions into the cave set.
  • Inconsistent usage of the SH Cliff Layers in the current section file are to be fixed to avoid clashing between the layers.
  • The sharp U in Veloth’s Path north of Saint Seryn should perhaps be removed, as it looks a bit odd and Seryn doesn’t really need to be that close to Veloth’s Path. (It serves a more industrial purpose related to river traffic).
  • The tunnel interior between AA and Aren Manor should be properly implemented; a part of the original Veloth’s Path now only known to a few Hlaalu, who use it as a secret passage.

Othreleth Woods Release Claims

We put together basic claim descriptions for the Othreleth Woods Release claims, focusing on the Othreleth Woods and Velothi Mountains claims as the Shipal-Shin claims might benefit from waiting on Vality's heightmap and the other descriptions already took enough time to discuss.
