    Characters and their personalities

    Yet. I haven't written any ISTPs YET ;) Would you like me to PM you a spoiler for something I won't be putting to paper anytime soon? That's never worked for me, but there are a lot of people that it has worked for :)

    How to dragon

    How much could the updrafts created by a dragon breathing fire make up for their generally being too large to fly?

    Magic and Food!

    When you eat food, many of the atoms of food are evacuated from your body as waste, but the rest of the atoms of food become part of your body. Your bones, your muscles, your blood... if you eat magical food to the exclusion of natural food for long enough, then you gradually approach 100% of...

    Wyverns over dragons?

    ... I need to explore this question further :)

    Wyverns over dragons?

    1) I don't see it as "wyverns versus dragons" so much as I see it as "wyvern dragons versus classic dragons" ;) 2) 6 limbs are for insects, reptiles have 4 limbs. 3) Wyvern dragons are awesome. The Reign of Fire dragons were awesome as wyvern dragons, the Goblet of Fire Hungarian...

    How to dragon

    Mine is an Urban Fantasy world, so I won't be writing the specific "princess and shapeshifting human-dragon run away together from evil prince" scenario, but shapeshifting is one of the most common forms of magic in my world and dragons are one of the most common species ;) The average dragon...

    How to dragon

    This is why I like "wyvern" dragons better than "classic" dragons, but maybe the forelimbs are far enough below the wings that you have four single-shoulders instead of two doubles?

    Fair enough :)

    Characters and their personalities

    My favorites are MyersBriggs Personality and Dungeons&Dragons Alignment, and I have a chart of 31 characters that I've come up with for 4 stories – a novel-length Doctor Who fanfiction, a YA horror novella, a Lovecraftian short story, and a vampire novel that I am about 1/4 of the way into...

    Are you bored of human-skinned races?

    If you want to write about humans, dwarves, and giants, than that's all the reason you need :) So that you can see how a story about troll barbarians becomes different than a story about human barbarians would've been :) If you have an idea that you want to use (in your case: trolls, dwarves...

    What's the point/purpose of fantasy races? Should I bother having them?
