    Gods : Of Man and Monster.

    Honestly the only two Gods of mine that are really defined are odd ducks in their worlds. And I have a few odd hierarchies to begin with, at the top are the Goa, your traditional Old Ones; but there's only 5 of those and 4 of them each head up a pantheon for a different race/culture. The fifth...

    Junsedov (King of Dragons) Culture set-up

    Well Raig is cool sounding, props there. Is the kings hide holy before he dies? and if it is wouldn't challenging the king be sacrilege?

    Designing a race of cave-dwelling people

    My first thought was that someone with such slow metabolism might not be able to keep up with a surface dweller. Where would they get the energy from? Or is your heroine forced to slow down to match the trogs?

    need help coming up with factions.

    Mmm those are the standard 'empire at it's own throat' factions. It might be interesting to add some sort of outside power, barbarians from somewhere or other, just to turn up the pressure and to get them all to cooperate in the end.

    Ashes to Ashes- Post Apocalypse Story

    Perhaps 'primitive' space stations could be a part of all this? Average Joe sees his government pouring money into this station that is meant to be a better life, and then he gets there and it's even worse than earth? So maybe the stations revolt and accidentally crash themselves into earth...

    Junsedov (King of Dragons) Culture set-up

    I was thinking that you'd have to change how they sounded to be honest, people will think you're just using skyrim for all your names not coming up with your own. Several of your syllables are lifter directly from skyrim even; Dov, Stren, Slaan, Paal. Ther three syllables aren't that much of a...

    Junsedov (King of Dragons) Culture set-up

    Yeah too skyrim. HOWEVER other than that it seems like a workable setup. When you say cloaked in the scales of the former king, do you mean that they skin him or something, or is it a set of ceremonial armor or robes? Depending on that it'll change the ceremony and society of the dragons A...

    Automaton army

    So less of an army, more of a . . . boss battle, maybe? Please tell me they don't all combine at the end! ;D

    The last piece of the puzzle-Execution of spells

    Playing off of something Aspasia said, Perhaps they use hand gestures not to focus their intent, but to limit their power? A small finger flick and thinking 'fire' may light a candle, but a swooping clap while thinking 'fire' might make a large fireball shoot out at your enemies. The gestures...

    Automaton army

    All of Queshs' questions are very useful in deciding where to progress with your story. A handful more, how many heros are you dealing with? it'll be important for the Antagonists to know how many Automatons to make. How capable individually are the automatons? Can they think of solutions to...

    Feedback on Creation Myth

    The very first line says that it is the myth for my fantasy world so I'm not sure where that would be confused with the real world, but sorry if it was. Second- It's not exactly ditheistic, the Goa and Dassa are each others Figures of Evil and destruction, like Satan is to God in Christian...

    Feedback on Creation Myth

    So this is the Ur-Creation myth for my Pet world Aginta. The first one and, unbeknowest to the general populace, the True one. In the First, there were the Eggs and nothing more. And in one Egg was all that might be Creation, and in the Other Egg was all that might be ~~*~~ ; which was it's...

    So, worldbuilding huh?

    Hello! I'm nightbug08, and I like worldbuilding! (yeesh sounds like an AA meeting . . .) Anyway I'm been having some serious thought about my pet setting and I feel like I need some sounding boards to bounce ideas at; at the same time I like to ponder different ideas and their implications...
