Surprisingly enough Trigun actually deals with what your talking about. It's a decent anime and manga I definitely recommend reading and watching it. The main character Vash has a history that was quite destructive but he now leads a life where he tries to help where he can and he does his...
Well I guess that's true but for the most part if your going to explain something and it's not going to be done at the moment of it happening it should be explained while something is taking place an info-dump can take place as like a dinner conversation I mean what do people normally do when...
When I read a book I personally LOVE (big letters for emphasis) getting into the world and reading about it. Personally I find that 1-2 pages of info dump does not hurt in the long run. What would you much rather have as a reader an amazing world that you can put yourself in or the writer just...
I mean you could actually take stuff from games and things like this two that come to mind would be Anti-Mage from Dota/Dota 2. Of course these are games but that's immediately what comes to mind when I think of someone who hunts down mages and kills them. If you don't know some of the lore...
Personally I love killing off characters but it has to fit the situation. One character I have created at the moment because I know where his story arc will finish and he will die because his ending fits the situation. It's something I'm still internally debating as he is not the main...
Summoners in my mind could be capable of bringing out demi-gods that can carry influence whereas priests could be the highest level of "summoner" and could actually bring forth a god to aid them. The question would be how upset would a god be to be summoned by what they would most likely...
1/3. Anything 50-70 years would be best imo simply because you can have the disaster for a good chunk and a much smaller portion as a rebuilding. 40 years of terribleness eventually led to 10 years of rebuilding society or even longer up to you really and how much you actually destroy. Like...
Loved book one hated katniss in books 2&3 so I hope the movies are done much better. IMO I hated her much more than I hated Bella in Twilight I found her to be much more annoying and indecisive than anything else and such a strong character from the first book in the hunger games trilogy turned...
I've completely kept that in mind and managed to design something around that. Where the main characters nation is a militaristic city but there is a massively supporting race that does take a major role throughout my entire book. I realized that I did want a society that's was militaristic...
I was not a huge fan really the only person who was any good in the movie was Charlize Theron as the Queen. The dwarves as a whole were good but as a Ireth stated above. Beyond that I felt the rest of the characters were not only predictable but quite forgettable. I found it to be quite bland...
Hey everyone I'm quite excited I've been looking for a community of people who write read and give/receive feedback in all things writing. I've tried writing some short stories in the past some of which have turned out better than others but I wanted to try writing a fantasy novel so I went...
