SUMMER CAMP 2024
WIP... still under Construction
Intro And Pledge
This will be the fifth Summer Camp and the third one fully dedicated to the world of Pangorio. Last year was a blend between Hypnosium and Pangorio and the year before that it was all about Hypnosium.
This camp is goping to be fully dedicated to the region call Baquay Sea, a turbulent region rich in reefs, resources, and a great variety of folks vying to possess them. This is the home of two campaigns still under construction: Pirates, Yo! and The Misty Isle.
NEED TO INSERT PLEDGE DOCUMENT HERE
Week 1 Homework
Theme: Change
"May You Live In Interesting Times"~Chinese ProverbPANGORIO
Catastrophic change happened a handful of years ago when the Great Catastrophe occured. The vast array of portals spread all across the world vanished all at once, spewing those who had been using them out into random places. With this loss of instantaneous long distance travel, the atrophied means of transport must now be developed. The race is one to be the first to develope a global transportation dynasty.BASQUAY SEA
This is a place for sailing and contesting control of ports, resources, and islands.
Rival realms have colonies, some well known other secret. Piracy abounds.
This a place of near constant change of politics, control, riches, and conquest.Assignment One
TYPES OF CHANGES IN THE BASQUAY SEAFirst I have to establish the status quo before I can then create changes. So for every change idea I must first create the normal. I think the changes in Basquay Sea will be modest or at least localized. One thing is for certain, I must decide when the newly forming Age of Sail begins to use gunpowder and canons which are the secret inventions of the Brahmaur. When exactly they begin to utilize these, I have yet to decide.
Assignment Two
DIAMOND OR DIEI fully intend to do all the Summer Camp Prompts. I must get another Diamond Badge.
Assignment Three
CATEGORIES AND TAGSMy categories were done earlier this year... it was a major overhauling project. So Yay for getting it done so early. As for the tags, I really should learn how to use them. I will think on it.
Assignment Four
THE METAMy world has grown beyond its meta. So much so I actually erased it. What I really need is a mini-meta for each region of my world. And the region needing that the most is the Basquay Sea. I wish there was an article template fo a mini-meta.
Week 2 Homework
Theme: Refuge
"There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats."~Albert SchweitzerPANGORIO
Private Sanctums protected by magic are a real thing. Even the undead have their refuges. Favored spirited drinks like Black Walnut Whiskey are enjoyed and used as an escape from the drearies of life.BASQUAY SEA
A pirate haven exists on the Crescent Isle with a single town called Tangorray. The spirited drink of choice to seek a refuge from life is rum.Assignment One
TYPES OF REFUGE IN THE BASQUAY SEAThe pirate haven on Crescent Isle. Rum, of course. Perhaps there is a secret cove or mysterious reef. Sailors can find refuge in the music they play as they sail the sea.
Assignment Two
ACCOUNTIBILITY BUDDIESThus far, I have one accountibility buddie: DragonMagpie. I also intend to hango out in the Challenge Discussion channel on the World Anvil Discord to keep me motivated.
Assignment Three
STYLINGFor now, it has become a habit to make sure there is a cover image ( search Pixabay) and the sticky sidebar for all articles and make sure I use the headers! I might come up with a theme for Basquay Sea articles.
Assignment Four
CSSI have already given Pangorio a CSS treatment or two so that is all set. Perhaps I can think of some article CSS. This is a big maybe. If I don't then that is just fine.
Week 3 Homework
Theme: Belief
"Frisbeetarianism is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck" ~ George Carlin, comedianPANGORIO
Belief comes in many forms.
Whether it be in the gods, in a leader, in a danger, in a place, or in one self.BASQUAY SEA
Religion is strong and so is superstition as sailing tends to be at the mercy of the sea. Life in the sea is also fraught with hazards, so superstitions run deep there as well. There are also those who have proven strong in providing havens and they have earned the faith of those who know them.Assignment One
POINTS OF BELIEFThere is the Storm God and there is the Sea God. There is the Rules of Parlay adhered to by pirates. Rules of the Coral Throne adhered to by those who live beneath the waves.
Assignment Two
INSPIRATIONSThe movies Pirates of the Carribean but without canons.
Ballista, catapults, magic, and ramming instead of canons and gunpowder.
The tv series Black Sails.
Treasure Island book and/or movie.
Sailor superstitions throughout history and literature.
Assignment Three
GALLERYI have no idea of what images I would need to prep.
I use Pixabay.
I use Hero Forge.
I use Inkarnate.
They are already on stand-by, lol.
That being said, I do have SOME older art and a map on hand.
Assignment Four
REVIEW THE OLDI dont need to do this as the old inspirations for the world of Pangorio hold up well for the Basquay Sea. I did the previous assignments aimed at the new region, Basquay Sea so... I am good... I think/hope.
Week 4 Homework
Theme: Decay
[color:darkgoldenrod|darkgreen]"All things are subject to decay and when fate summons, monarchs must obey." ~ John Dryden, poetPANGORIO
Decay of the world order since the ending of the gateway of Portals. Decay of the power of the mages, who had held sway over all asa the High Guild of Magic because they controlled the Gateways.BASQUAY SEA
Decay of control of the resources already known.Assignment One
EFFECTSThe purple peppers of the Madura Isles, a treasure for mages is now no longer under their control. The Jarvani are rising to meet the new demands and no longer willing to exclusively trade with the Bardicans. This is the decay of the established purple pepper trade.
Decay of the balance of peace between the colonial towns as the powers of the realms has been altered with the loss of the portals.
Assignment Two
CREATIVE SPACEI have a room that happens to already be prepped. And I keep a very healthy pantry and stock of supplies ready to go. I will make sure, though, to double stock the emergency chocolates and snacks.
Assignment Three
HOMEPAGEI previously fixed Pangorio's homepage due to a major clean up so I could start building a true timeline of the world's history. As I did this, I created articles to serve as each category's homepage. SAdly, the article homepage for Basquay Sea is very.... skimpy. It only has 6 articles in it!! Summer camp must fill it up!
Assignment Four
