World map of Cindaelus. Criticism wanted.

Personally, i just make crap that I think looks cool and leave the realism out of it....

I agree with this. Devotion to realism, like anything, reaches a point of diminishing returns. I guess realistic looking rivers are the most important, as are general locations of forests and such in proximity to mountain ranges. Beyond that, I'm not sure how important scientifically plausible air or water currents are in a map or world that includes dragons, elves, demons, magic, unicorns, fire-breathing caterpillars, or all of the above.

The continent on your right almost looks a little like north america (with a flooded mexico) to me, so that might be generally helpful for you.

How dare you doubt the existence of dragons! And my pet Smokey the fire-breathing caterpillar is now crying in the corner. Thanks. That'll be months of therapy for the little guy. :\

I do agree with the general sentiment though.
