Demons of other world, Khargs, are a living shadow that absorb soul of what they kill and can transform in it. What do you think? Is it a good idea?
Thanks, but they can't be flat, because this book: Rithmatist. It's about flat chalklings, creatures drawed by special people and bringed to life made of chalk.
Think about the situation with haters and like that. Only and only:
"You're copying!!!"
"Don't you have some your own ideas?!"
You know, I just think three dimensional shadows are a bit better.
But I'm really grateful that someone reacted like this on the thread. I was thinking that someone will show up and say: "Such s***!!!" and things like that. That would demoralize me. I used the Khargs in some stories but I gave up on every single one of them, because of lack of planning.
But if you don't even try, then you'll see how their numbers are increasing rapidly. I mean, LOTR certainly had less haters than Twilight( I hate it too).
Flat shadows are good idea, but think about they can't get to a thing which flies, levitates or just isn't connected to object they are on. I wanted to make them terrifying shadowly beasts which leave only destruction and fear behind them. They should be something like hunting dogs. You almost can't escape them, they can cross gaps and swim. Just to make them feared enemies. Their weakness is strong light. Sunlight works. They are even stronger in darkness, so night is horrible. If they'd be flat, flying creatures would be mostly safe. And imagine a city builded on flying stones. But thanks for reply. Really.
