I sorta posted something like this a while back, about having so much ideas but not enough outputs, sooooo....I thought it might be a fun idea to have a collaborative thread to get some ideas of Town Themes down on "paper" I guess.

Basically, if you have a cool idea for a town theme or something, then you'd fill out a post with the following. Anyone could drop by the thread if they're looking for inspiration and use anybody's ideas, if they wanted, to created their own "Themed" town :P

It would look something like:
Possible names of town:
Short Description:
Villagers (and possibly what they "represent")
PWPs you might use:


So....if someone wanted to make a "Wizard of Oz" town:
Possible names of town: Oz, Emerald, etc.
Short Description: Use yellow-brick paths to make your very own yellow brick road! The Wicked Witch of the West's fortress and Glinda's Castle serve as two houses, and your mayor is Oz himself! Separate your town in quadrants, representing North, South, West and East, and make the world of Oz come to life.
Villagers (and possibly what they "represent")
Peggy (Dorothy)
Elvis (The Cowardly Lion)
Ribbot (The Tin Man)
Jacques (The Scarecrow)
Muffy (The Wicked Witch of the West)
Willow (Glinda)
Prince (The Wizard)
Monty and Tammi (Flying Monkeys)
Walker (Toto)
PWPs you might use: Scarecrow, Topiaries

Let your unused inspiration fly.....(or let this thread die)

Oh, and if no one wants to use the thread for "making" towns, then it can just be for cool hypothetical towns.
 
Ok here we go! This is actually my 2nd main that I am currently working on.

Town name: Storybrk (yes, from the show once upon a time.)

This town has a LONG way to go but I almost have all of my villagers plotted. And the portals lands in my town will have: storybrk, the enchanted forest, wonderland, Neverland and oz.

Top portion: storybrk with mayor Regina. Her house is directly to the right of the town hall with her apple tree to her right that I will be encasing in cool path tiles. Her house will have granny's diner, mr. Gold 's pawn shop, Emma's room upstairs, a library, Regina's office, the hospital, and the crypt. The villagers of storybrk are Skye (ruby/red riding hood), Octavian (Leroy/grumpy), Blanche (Mary Margaret/ snow), and Phil (David/charming).

To the left is the enchanted forest. This has the campsite, surrounded by patterned tree stumps, trees, and will have a campfire, I may include coco to be the blind witch of the forest if I ever find her.

To the right towards the bottom of town is wonderland. I have perfect cherry trees here along with lots of red and white roses and card themed paths that I made. There is a flower garden area that includes the flowers from the Disney cartoon (as accurately as I could make it ). My villagers there are bob ( the Cheshire Cat) and ruby (the white rabbit). If I had more room for more villagers, I would have cole as the March hare and flora. My character for the area will be Cora as the queen of hearts, and her house will have a card themed throne room , a gorgeous bedroom , a tea party room, a mad hatters room, a backyard croquet room and a dungeon.

To the bottom left will be Neverland which will either have Tink or hook as the main character. It is right by the private beach area. I will have a hammock and not sure what else at the moment. The house will have a lost boys room , tink's room, a pirate room, a fish room, a toy room and a mermaid room. I am contemplating putting Bunnie near Neverland to serve as Ariel. My original plan was for that and if I had more room, Erik (as Eric) and either marina or muffy as Ursula, but alas we can't have 20 villagers.

Lastly we have the oz portion right in the middle. It has a yellow brick road path I made, with a single path that has the ruby slippers coming out from a house. It's surrounded in Apple trees and "poppies", aka red pansies. My villagers in that part are flurry, as a munchkin, ribbot as the tinman, possibly Diana as Glenda, and also possibly Derwin as the wizard. I will be getting a scarecrow pwp as soon as I move in a Uchi temporarily so she can suggest it. My character for oz will be zelena the wicked witch. There will be an emerald city room, a wizard room , a witches room, a forest room and maybe a Dorothy room. If I had more room, I would have a lion, and more munchkins (Apple and hamphrey).

Here is a pic of my map :) so far.

It won't let me upload it :(
 
Wooooahhh, that's an amazing (and crazy ambitous) idea. Can't wait to see it when it's all finished. :D
 
This will be my main town, haha!

Name of town: Dinosaur
Short Description: A murder story. (Sounds familiar?)
Villagers (and possibly what they "represent")
• Any villagers.

It's just a rough design of my town. So, it's not much.

haha, you should definitely include Drago and a bunch of alligators :/
 
Nice, what's the murder story about??
Since I'm a fan of werewolves, the mayor is meant to be a werewolf, who murders some of the visitors/villagers.
All the other human villagers are just friends with her. Haha.

My characters are based off my OCs, so.. Yeah. It's not much, but, I'm making sure it doesn't show the full story, allowing the player to imagine more of the story.
 
Normal village.
No "sp00ky" dead kids
nice normal neighbours
a hint of avian
some golden bricks

nice theme, clean but simple
 
Harry Potter Town!
Possible names of town: Wizard, Hogwarts, Rowling
Short Description: Explore the wizarding world of harry potter, shape your own "diagon alley" with villager houses, and build a Castle Hogwarts, your mayor is the Headmaster, Dumbledore, and your neighbor is fawkes (phoebe).
Villagers (and possibly what they "represent")
All the characters represent their personal patronus.
Bam (Harry, his patronus is a stag)
Bones (Ron, his patornus is a jack russell terrier)
Cally (Hermione, patronus is an otter, but cally is cute)
Kiki (McGonagall, well duh)
Phoebe (Dumbledore, phoenix)
Ruby (Luna, hare)
Fauna (Snape/Lily, doe)
Peaches (Ginny, horse)
Lobo (Tonks/Lupin, Werewolf)
Samsung (Pettigrew)

PWPs you might use: Er, Bus stop for Kings Cross? I guess the brick bridge would look nice, fairy-tale stuff, etc.
 
Harry Potter theme!Every villager belongs to a different group!I have this in my town and its awesome!I mostly use antique PWPS
 
A Friday the 13th town.Not sure what you would name it, but the town would be foresty, and have a sign that reads "camp Crystal Lake".I actually got this idea from a really cool dream.This town is awsome and the houses are really cool.He/she made a Friday the 13th room in one of the houses.It also has an awesome Wizzard the oz room, and lots more.4100-2965-4780.

It almost makes me want to theme my town like that, buuut I couldn't keep my town in the winter months all the time. I had the idea the other day when a thread came up asking if you'd rather have a beautiful town and ugly villagers, or cute villagers and an ugly town. I said someone should adopt all the unwanted villagers and give them a lovely town. Bang! Island of Misfit Villagers. c:
