    Walls And Fantasy Armies

    Having been thinking on one of my past fantasy worlds, in which there are armies that can scale walls with calvary units. True, the world itself has mounted defenses as it is, usually by growing thorny vines along the walls. With thorns about five inches long at that, along with spiked defenses...

    My take on Dragon Shifters

    In my setting, dragon shifters occupy the ruling class of a nation called Urnova. So, the main thing to realize is that dragon shifters are the only ‘dragons’ in the world. There’s no ‘true dragons’ out there. They aren’t born able to shift, it comes in at some later point in their lives (or...

    Dwarven Nuns

    The nun walked further then ever before, until she had finally reached her goal. The cave. As she drew closer to the cave, her habits swaying in the breeze, she pulled out her golden blade, wreathed in flame. She tucked her beard into her armor, and screamed: "REVENGE OF THE DWARVEN...

    Dragons in your world?

    What are dragons like in your world? What do they look like? What is their society like? What are their powers? Are they magical, or are they just animals? Can they take other forms? How/why? Are they intelligent? How many are there? etc. There have been many interpretations of dragons, all...

    Dragon Kings

    In a book I’m writing, the Daemorys Royal Family has the power to become dragons. It’s signified by a series of raw gouges in the skin that mark the bones. These don’t form on the face. The bones and teeth are fused, so they don’t really lose teeth. They have an incredibly high temperature...

    Dragon Dearest

    It began with a Knight, a beautiful faerie Knight with six silver tails and eyes like storm clouds. One who laughed in the face of monsters as they waved their tentacles or flashed their teeth at him. As they barred their claws and let their slimy saliva fall on his bare cheek. For neither their...

    Greetings from Aeteurnia

    Hails to all those scribes of the of the mind, reflecting the realms seen, and unseen. I am a fairly recently self published writer, presenting a quite groundbreaking concept, that along with those somewhat more expected influences, Tolkien, Lewis etc, I am also heavily influenced by much older...

    Elbow Spikes on a Creature's Wing

    Believability of a fantasy creature can go so far. Case in point--the title feature. I have first seen it on a Ringwraith's winged mount... ...then on Smaug... ...and finally on the dragons of Tui T. Sutherland's Wings of Fire series. I never understood the appeal. Bats don't have it...

    Sufficiently dragonlike motivations

    I'm writing a story about dragons who live in cities and villages. The problem is, these dragons come off as very human. I need to make their motivations and personalities more dragonlike. (Note: my dragons are bipedal, much like humans, and have five fingers, but the physical resemblance ends...

    St. George and the Dragon

    My interpretation of St. George's confrontation with a dragon. Although St. George went on to become the patron saint of England, in the original myth he was a Roman soldier instead of the commonly depicted medieval knight. Furthermore, the tale was set in "Libya", which is what the...
