a. keeping landmarks
maybe we could keep the floating sea town, but expand on it with more locations and pictures? but i don't feel too strongly about keeping landmarks.
b. biome
i really like the idea of going for a boreal forest, which is a cold forest biome where it snows 6-8 months out of the year. ninazu (and other earth elementals) could use their earth elemental power to make the condemned's traditionally important flora adapt to the new climate! so we could have them become "invasive" tropical species within the frosty biome.
i'm suggesting this because, tbh, i'm getting kinda tired of tropical biomes? the pitt, the typhoon, and the cotc occupy tropical lands at present. palm glades has a biome similar to a temperate rainforest, rather than being purely tropical, and the tanglewoods is more deciduous (iirc). so i think going with a boreal forest biome would be very unique! especially if we add the invasive tropical flora, so we can customize the biome to have the cotc's old traditions.
and, also, cold temperatures means lots of traditions will involve bonfires, taking trophies/skins as hinds, and lead to a need for warfare to gather supplies as needed.
c.
maybe they could weaponize their old island and smash it into the pitt or some other enemy
if they keep their island home, maybe it could be a smaller, separate island? maybe to allow them to have two different biomes in their territory, tropical and boreal. or they could just abandon it.
d. types of homes
i'm always partial to treehouses! but i don't have many strong opinions on this. perhaps have 2-3 different types of homes for different animals to choose from? since not all types of homes are accessible to all types of animals.
e. new landmarks
the snake mouth cave sounds awesome! we could use that with the tunnel system orion proposed for the cave system to travel to the mainland -- perhaps that's the opening / main passage to use it?
