Coming up are a bunch of in-depth fantasy map drawing tutorials, where we will learn all about geography--different kinds of mountains and how they form, different environments and why/where they occur, and more! Along this journey I'll give examples of how different environments and natural features can influence your world-building and campaign setting in any tabletop rpg.
