User:Pawl
I'm Pawl (actually Paul, but I used the Welsh name here because I am mapping in Welsh). I am English but live in south Wales. I joined OGF in 2015 but have been mostly inactive recently. I used to map UL11a (Tircambry) and Wesmandy (UL11e) but after a long period of inactivity I have given up UL11a and am converting Wesmandy into the new Tircambry! This allows me to keep a Welsh-speaking country while taking advantage of the more extensive mapping I had done in Wesmandy, as well as preferring its smaller size.
Since 2013, I am also mapping Wesfolk in Ingerland.
I am also interested in flags and heraldry and happy to help anyone designing flags or coats of arms for their territories.
Tircambry
Tircambry is a fairly small Cambric (Welsh)-speaking nation in northwestern Uletha. I had been mapping it as it was in 1400 with the intention of moving it forward century by century to the present day, but I am abandoning that approach and will start bringing the country into the modern day.
Current activity
21 Nov 2023 : I have finished converting over 4,100 English-language names to Cambric (Welsh) and have moved the city of Porthrenin from "old Tircambry" to new Tircambry. Most of Tircambry is mapped as it was in the 15th century, but Porthbrenin is in the 1920s. It's time to start moving it all into the 21st century.
I also need to re-write the history to take account of the new location and changed reality in West Uletha (e.g. having Ingerland as a neighbour).
Wesfolk
Wesfolk is an area, mostly a peninsula, in the west of Ingerland. It has some cities and ports but is largely rural with the main economic activities being farming and tourism, along with fishing, light industry, service industries, and naval facilities. Wesfolk is divided into four counties inspired by southwest England - Davon, Havset, Darlshire and Meltshire. I'm not entirely happy with the names so they may change (e.g. Davon is way too like real-world Devon, so I might change it to something like Dunvan).
Current activity
At present (Nov 2023) I am mainly locating and naming things in Davon - mostly waterways settlements, and roads - but have done a little bit more detailed work in the town of Iskmouth.
