Maps and Directions



This map is a work in progess
It will be updated as Covenstead Members
Lay Claim to their homes and start building projects
To Update this map please leave your version below this one
Or ask [moira hawthorne] or myself [LynnAnneBrown] to help you.
To see how it has evolved
Check out Covenstead's Map Archive


My Apologies for the simplicity of this map, but as I have discovered Map Making takes a lot of skill and I'm still learning.

But none the less, it should give you a basic idea of the lay of the land.

Covensteads holdings are the areas marked in darker green and extend a little to the east and west of what is shown on the map. To the North, in the area marked in lighter green is ElfTown Proper. And to the south is the "Lake of Dreams"

The road that marks the the top border of Covenstead is named "Ramblers Way" and leads to ElfTown in the east and unknown adventures in the west.

The streams that surround the center area of Covenstead have yet to be named.

The main area of Building will be in the center area of Covenstead, between the lake and the road to the north and south and the two streams to the east and west.

The lands to east and west will be left wild except for the natural footpaths that I am sure will be worn by those who enjoy more primitive environments.

2009-02-24 [moira hawthorne]: Ill likely keep shifting the Legend around to conserve space and make it follow the map itself so its easy on the eye...

2009-02-24 [LynnAnneBrown]: Fabulous, I agree we want folks to feel free add their input but with you around help mesh things together we should end up with a wonderful map.

2009-02-24 [moira hawthorne]: my buildings are strange... they are viewed as roof plans... not symbols like yours... or my bonfires

ofcourse if anyone needs/wants to edit some existing feature to add something they want that should be fine as long as its done with respect to the previous artist's efforts

eventually we need all the pathways and the bridges to connect us...

2009-02-24 [LynnAnneBrown]: I would be happy if you were to update my contributions so that the map is more cohesive and more easily makes sense to the those trying to read it. My home itself is just a little cottage down near where the lake and stream meet. Also as Head of Cartography please feel free to Organize this page and Archive in the way that works best for you.

2009-02-24 [moira hawthorne]: Ill see how the next person addition play out.... other wise Ill be editing the map 20 times a day... you know... I have to restrain myself and wait for other people... but I can give you a little cabin sure..

Im sure my home is filled with more rooms... than... well most homes.... the fae like all kinds of special places..

2009-02-24 [LynnAnneBrown]: When you do could you find a place for the Great Oak, somewhere near the Gate at Ramblers Way.

2009-02-24 [moira hawthorne]: ooooo ok just asked about that... likely shift the bonfire south abit than...

2009-02-25 [Madhalf Heatlump]: We need to get the map somewhere where the whole thing and legend is showing!

2009-02-25 [moira hawthorne]: huh? its not showing?

2009-02-25 [Madhalf Heatlump]: On my normal sized monitor it gets cut off in the middle of the writing of member's homes

2009-02-25 [moira hawthorne]: oooooh... you need to adjust the resolution of your moditor

2009-02-25 [Madhalf Heatlump]: I have 1024 by 768 pixels... isn't that average?

2009-02-25 [moira hawthorne]: hummm mine is 1280 x 1024 and I get the full map

2009-02-25 [Madhalf Heatlump]: Doesn't matter... lol

2009-02-25 [moira hawthorne]: hummmmmm.... im not the most technical person on ET by a long shot... many someone else who has more knowledge can help you... it likely a small change in setting is all...

2009-02-25 [moira hawthorne]: the maps dimensions are only 800px × 768px ... it should fit nicely on the wiki page

2009-02-25 [Madhalf Heatlump]: I know... my monitor won't though...I already tried... oh well...
Don't sweat it... I can see the whole thing on the map history page :)

2009-02-25 [moira hawthorne]: is it the side banner that is cutting/overlapping it? and on the Covenstead's Map Archive is the side banner doing the same thing to the top maps?

2009-02-25 [Madhalf Heatlump]: It's the side thing yup.... yes it is on the top maps at the archive as well...

2009-02-25 [moira hawthorne]: ooooh well if we wrote more at the top it would solve the problem... but I still think an adjust somewhere in your settings would cure it

2009-02-25 [Madhalf Heatlump]: I know they would if my monitor would allow it but it doesn't so no biggy... lol
It's not like I can't see it somewhere lol
