@Sialuk told me to put this in here.
I've created a modified version of the current map. It is different in two ways:
1. It doesn't rely on jQuery, so page load is slightly faster
2. It takes a query parameter "chars". If you feed one or more names of a currently active character, it will grab the last thread that character was in and stick the location on the map in a bubble. The bubble represents an approximate range of the character for one day, using the "25 mile" length on the map as a radius. You can change the range with the slider on the left.
Autumn suggested this could be added to a character's profile. Theoretically I could also make a widget that shows like a baby version of it as an image.
I'm not super sure who currently hosts the map, but I'm happy to supply the code and infos for this.
Other things I am thinking of adding or changing:

Other things I am thinking of adding or changing:
- Are the pack claim labels automatically generated? If not, I can make it so.
- I'd like to show more information about what the range represents, including miles
- I'm adding another slider for the maximum distance. Currently it is set to 25 miles.
- I'm adding support for passing user ids in the chars parameter instead of names
- I'm adding a textbox so users can search for a user from the map itself
- Characters that are in the same spot looks gross right now, I will fix it
