Dragonguard Progress Report (DPR-23)

WOO SUMMER CAMP HAS STARTED!! Let's go worldbuild! But first, here's my monthly recap post:

Inspired yet again by Mochi's Stickers, I updated postcards and added little excerpts on the back! Just hover over (sorry mobile users) and check out what's been written on them :) Also, I added more postcards to articles, so now you can hunt for them! Have fun.

There have been HUGE updates to LotD's homepage! I'm so happy with what I've managed to achieve; it's what I've wanted the homepage to be like for a long time! It now has a cool primer section with parallax images and stuff (including pagination in the upper right corner!). I also reworked the categories section and the community/article stuff below that. There still may be some things to tweak and add to the primer sections, but it's overall finished. :) Now I just need to make my own artwork for the images instead of using AI garbage. In due time... in due time.

It's only been a few days since Summer Camp started, and I'm already off to a good start! Better than last year :) I’ve already written a handful of articles, but only a few are for the prompts. Let’s hope some of the extra ones will work for a later prompt!
Now, go worldbuild!!

Dragonguard Progress Report (DPR-22)

> Issue 22 - 100 followers, first dragonkin sketch, and Summer Camp prep!!

Follow the Root Directory hub for my worlds, updates, challenges, and more!

Firstly, I want to scream; AAAHH! Thank you for 100 followers on my Legends of the Dragonguard world!!! <3 I ALSO recently made the first sketch ever of a dragonkin from my world! A Pygmy Wyvern protecting his piece of cheese. I haven't drawn a thing since like, high school, and I somehow even managed to smudge pencil, LOL. Still turned out better than I thought, considering the position I had to draw him in and stuff. And yes, I used an entire pencil eraser when sketching this little guy, haha.

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Your World was a fun challenge! I made mine as a travel guide given to you by an Ancient novascale, and it serves as a bit of a guide for the recently added postcard collectibles, some Dragonguard history, and to experience visiting various places across my world

I also took part in Asmo’s Dip a Toe In challenge, where I chose to dip my toe into the Yonderverse by Mochi <3 I made a cool mushroom! And with that, I also added a new Funga category for when I add more fungi in the future.

It’s been a fairly productive month! More so than the past few. But guess what, IT’S SUMMER CAMP PREP TIME WOOO. I think I’m only going to pledge bronze this year, but I’ll aim for more! At least I won’t be gone for most of July this time, unlike last year.

100 Followers! And my Travel Guide

Firstly, I'd like to say AAAAHH THANKS FOR 100 FOLLOWERS ON MY WORLD!! <3

Secondly, I just published my hitchhiker's guide to my world! It's more or less done, but I still may tweak some things. Now I've got to work on some of the settlement articles that are linked from it, they are quite out of date haha.

This guide is aimed to be a little bit of a guide for the Postcards collectibles I added recently (I will add postcards to settlement articles soon), as well as for some Dragonguard history, and to experience visiting various places across my world. I hope you enjoy!

One of my favourite articles, Keystones, is in the running for Best Article of 2026! This is the biggest category I've ever been up for, and my first time in the big leagues. We won a newcomer category during the first Worldbuilding Awards, with Solaris being awarded the Most Beautiful New World, and we've tried to keep the iron hot. In 2023, we won Best Body of Work in Worldember 2023. Could this be the year where Solaris snags a spot in the sky alongside the heroes of World Anvil?

For those of you new to Solaris , it's a space opera set in our little solar system, inspired by mythology and the wonder of looking up at the stars. It's been a sparkly crystal paradise, up until the angelic armies of the sun attacked and laid Mercury to waste.

I write Solaris alongside my cowriter and fiancée Skye. All the art for Solaris is drawn by me in MS Paint, and I made my own theme. No AI or LLMs are involved in any step of the process. I can do all of this because of the wealth of knowledge shared here on the internet, so I try to do my part in sharing what I know as well. You can find a bunch of guides by me in the Post Script of Solaris, as well as links to resources I use, and I've been trying to update all my articles with a authors note about my inspirations.

This year I also got my second nomination for Strength & Honor with Operation War Dove, the article that gave me my first ever win on World Anvil when it was picked as the winning conflict article that Summer Camp. The overview of the tech of my setting, Crystal Technology, was also nominated for Pillars of Progress. Both of these categories are voted on by you, and I highly recommend you check out all the articles and vote on your favourite!

300 explorers = Solaris 3.0

Solaris made it all the way to 300 explorers! When we went into Summer Camp with 298 explorers the excitement that we might hit 300 really started to build. On the 28th the two ticked over to a three! And what better way to celebrate than to give you something to enjoy too?

Enter Solaris 3.0! I've given the whole world a new coat of css, which means you can now explore Solaris in dark mode! If you loved the light theme, don't worry, it's still there! I used some CSS magic to make it update the theme depending on your browser preference. You can also use the new toggle in the navbar to decide which theme to use. Because I believe in sharing my magic tricks, I wrote a guide on how I set this up !

Much love to everyone, thank you so much for supporting Solaris!
