    How Is Your World Like?

    My world is a DnD steampunk world that blends magic and technology. It's also full of high fantasy shenanigans like a small city inside a giant lighthouse, a small city on the back of a flying snake, floating islands, an eternal sandstorm, portals into other dimensions, a huge area of a rain...

    Is it possible to have non-cliché dwarfs?

    Mine are made out of stone. A mountain goddess breathed life into stones, when life didn't evolve beyond simple creatures yet, because she wanted to have company. They also eat stones. BUT it made those dwarves even more cliche to some extent, because they have a hard time leaving the...

    Be honest, how good at 'doing the deed' are your fictional characters?

    Of course I'm writing the sex scenes as well, because it's a romance too and not just fantasy. Not every single one of course, because I'm not writing porn xD, but at least I'm gonna to include a few. I also think people are hyper critical about sex even being written in. There are other...

    Any Chance you can do a Self Insert Main character without....

    The parts of me I write into my characters are not on surface level. My protagonist has to deal with being poisoned and while I never got poisoned thankfully lol, it's of course an illness they have to live with and it will never fade completely. Other than: different characters who are...

    Anybody around here watch the Anime?

    I'm watching anime since I'm 5 or 6 yos (I'm now 33), therefore my list is huge. Instead of just naming tons of anime, here is my favorite list: Anilist Never watched much of Naruto, One Piece or so, but I've seen / watching and reading rn other shounen like Inuyasha and Vanitas and love those...

    Anybody around here watch the Anime?

    I really disagree tbh and hope anime doesn't go back neccesarrily. There had been a bunch of amazing anime in the last years. Akane-banashi, The Apothecary Diaries, Jadaagur, Goodbye Lara, Love Through A Prism, Gundam: Witch of Mercury, The Summer Hikaru Died, Orb: Movements of the Earth, Blue...

    Why Do Some Fantasy Worlds Breathe?

    That's a good idea as well. Maybe both, aka it varies from culture to culture and they found different ways to deal with water and food scarcity.

    Uhm... I have dyspraxia, also bit of asthma and another chronical illness. Realistcally, me going on a fantasy adventure, I would die right away. ^^" Maybe I could be a side character in a city, I don't know. If we are just talking about shared traits, train of thoughts etc... I have absolutely...

    Why Do Some Fantasy Worlds Breathe?

    I just the idea right now thanks to you: Portable small fields of some sort in a pocket dimension. There have to be at least a few nomadic folks doing this. xD But I agree: For me it's the small details and to me, also the characters living in it.

    Have you ever 'swooned' for a fictional character?

    Yes, indulgingly so with no shame haha. I also had a lot of fictional crushes over time. The first had been Sango from Inuyasha maybe, then Michiru, Haruka and Setsuna from Sailor Moon. Then somewhere inbetween Asami from Avatar and others haha. The latest ones had been Qifrey from Witch Hat...

    Are you 'less' of an adult if you enjoy video games/anime/animation?

    Imo, all of the Avatar series and novels, including the new one Seven Havens, are more mature thematically and in character-writing, than quite a lot of media created for adults could ever dream of.

    Are you 'less' of an adult if you enjoy video games/anime/animation?

    I think that post here is pretty condenscending, moreso because you are talking to another adult person ... Videogames take time. And? So does reading and writing and we are here for that. No one ever said they should outgrow reading books, for the simple reason that they are accepted by...

    What is your worlds stance on lgbtq folks?

    My whole world is queer-normative and only have loose gender roles in general. Like, your human son could date a dragonborn or any other race that isn't too human. You wouldn't think of the gender of your son's new partner first, the first thing you are seeing are the scales, right? xD And in...

    Do you have jokes/silly moments that don't make it into the final cut?

    Yeah that's alright, but why don't make the jokes, when they aren't in danger or grieving. 😅

    Do you have jokes/silly moments that don't make it into the final cut?

    I think that's fine and can be funny as long as characters don't crack jokes everytime they are in real danger or are in grief or anything. What bothers me about Marvel humor are not the jokes, but often they got a bad placement and destroy the severity of the scene.
