So I'm supposed to come up with an "Altar" piece of terrain for a game. I'm having quite some difficulty coming up with a good idea for this one. Any suggestions?
Ideas that I have had so far:
The Altar of Aslan:
Typical Altar:
I know this is just off a video game, but I like the concept for an Elven Altar:
So what do you guys think?

You could always go with the Lizardmen Ziggurat approach. A four sided pyramid leading up to a sky altar type thing at the top. Those are pretty cool. Something like this: Or this: Half-bury them to make it look like they're old and just focus on the uppper portions of them and the actual altar itself maybe? I do like the altar of Aslan as well. Also from Skyrim: To show a few

Those aren't half bad. I don't think that I want to do anything as big as a Ziggurat. I like for my terrain pieces to be maneuverable around. I do, however like the torch braziers around the one from Skyrim. I was already thinking of something along those lines. Probably using the braziers from the Phoenix Guard banners.
I've also been toying with making an altar that has something to do with Ulric's Flame in Middenhem. My Empire army is a force from Middenheim so that might be appropriate as well.

Which sort of races are you doing the altar for?

None in particular. I want to be able to use it in any game.

I was thinking that you could just do the top layer of a ziggurat if you're interested. Make it look like it's been swallowed up by the desert or the jungle or something. Have the descending stairs going off into the base maybe?

That could be a good possibility. Make it look like an earthquake or some calamity swallowed most of it up. Good suggestion!
