My characters use modern words in my fantasy fiction because their world is 'modern' for them. Back in the day they were much more like Tolkien. But I feel like if a fantasy world exists long enough, their language would evolve over time just like ours did. This includes things like modern...

It originally started as admitedly a 'hand wavy' excuse for the (very minor) real world tech to exist in this fictional world. Then I ironed out more details to be more unique to my story. Then the other elements came into play like the natural elements of the world breaking down into actual...

I feel like my idea for it is kind of original, since it isn't just 'the internet' although it's possible to use it that way. Particularly for the Gods of the world. Also I feel like if a concept has 'stuck around' this long and is still used fairly frequently. It's probably a fun/good idea when...

Right? My characters use modern language (Though they don't use modern slang, some of them swear but not the ones directed at a type of person) because the world itself is 'old enough' though I'm considering developing some cultural swears for my fantasy species. It's mostly the regular humans...

For games and other media the reason for 're' enjoying remain the same. In no particular order. Good world building Good characters/character interaction (especially during 'down time' moments) Including at least one well done 'you sassy F* er' type character. (Like the female lead from Dragon...

I agree. 'oh no, logical things in fantasy, what am I going to do' In my world I wanted to have a lore reason for the 'real world' technology (Electronic ovens, vending machines, stuff like that. But the rest of the technology is far more in the vein of 'fantasy' technology.) to exist in a...

Authors regardless of origin, are very proud of their 'babies' So as long as your interest is genuine and your question is appropriate. I'm sure most authors would spill the beans. Especially author's who start with AE and end with Lowan /silly (it is fun hearing about those stories though!)

I haven't thought of too many critters specific to my work. There's one that's in Hound and Fox that's basically Kirara from Inuyasha. Plenty of 'humanoid' animals though, though they are like 80-95% human in appearance.

So when I'm looking at a more detailed thread section, it says I'm logged in and everything? Even let's me post. But when I'm on the main page of the forum. It's asking me to either log in or register. When I click the 'log in' button I get an error that says 'security issue'

Then there's the book called 'The Borrowers' which happened because one author had a 'shower thought' plot bunny of 'what if the rats in the house were little people instead' which, they aren't faerie, at least I don't think ? but they are 'little people' It's a lot like something I would cook...

I actually don't know how many other Faerie (Besides the ferngully/tinkerbell sort) I am gonna include. I know I want Sirens (But not so much the 'evil' ones, more so the version that just 'do their thing' and sailors just happen to fall into the water?) While they're not Faerie, I'm planning...

I'm on the spectrum, for a couple of different things. But I'm moderately high functioning. (To the point you couldn't tell I was on the spectrum unless my relatives/doctor told you) This has lead to a number of complications. (one of those being how my parents perceive how intelligent I am) But...

I'm 38 and I still laugh at a well timed dad joke/fart joke/etc. That being said, it has to be a good/clever dad joke, and yes those exist. There's a difference between quality puns and even quality anti jokes. I've kind of learned that after almost 40 years of being a poorly executed punster...

The Sith you say? :sneaky: I mean , that could work as an insult too. Being called a buttercup could mean that you are simple minded and don't stand out much. Either way I'm just spitballing ideas here. One of my RWBY characters is named Ivy. Part of it is that she's basically like poison Ivy...

It's a bit complicated but: They're what you call 'Garden Variety' culturally, but physically more based on the original 'little people' than the more modern variants. (they can change size at will) Personality wise, most of them are similar to more modern ones. Which is why I'm asking for...
