This looks Incredible! Brilliant lighting and style!

@freedomwriter76

Sorry we vanished for a while. Yeah, I think it’s good either way. It could be interesting for Bucky and Liren to meet, because they’ve had similar trails. But there could be some fun dynamics with N’nesha and Uvah, plus there’s only two of them in that group so far. Also I think We got some tension going on with Liren, Phervin…[Read more]

@keilah-h thanks!

1. Reptiles are cool! I even own a pen that looks like an alligator.
2. I haven’t, it’s never really been something I’ve thought to try.
3. Favorite TV show: probably Murder, She Wrote; Favorite movie: The Music Man.

Awesome! Here’s a little bit on mine.

Liren is a man who is controlled by his sword, Kirrtes, which he wields in his left hand. When he pierces something with Kirrtes, he basically feels their experience. For a moment, he sees everything completely through their eyes. He feels the pain of a blade jabbed into your gut, he sees their life flash…[Read more]

@freedomwriter76

One is currently with Liren from me, with Phervin and Namal from @princesschronical22. Then Our other is N’nesha from me, and Uvah from Princess. Do you need a break down for any of those characters?

@freedomwriter76

Currently I’ve only been in two groups, both of which are only with @princesschronicals22 so far. So maybe you could join one of those. I could also put in another character, maybe Tailen.

@esther-c

Love those! Emperors new groove is the best!

@otherworldlyhistorian

Yep! Hard magic is so fun to contemplate!

Your world sounds super cool! I love how your combining things like lunar calendars, light, chemistry, and a bunch of other concepts into the magic.

Ok, I got questions.

You say the Oskrion Complex is a imploding celestial structure. So does it appear to be slowly shrinking over…[Read more]

@mkfairygirl

Thanks! Yeah, that sounds really cool! So it looks like you got a elemental magic system going on. It sounds a lot like Last Airbender with the premise of elemental countries. Are you aiming for that image? An older worldbuilding project I did was essentially just Last Airbender, except instead of the four elements, I did the four…[Read more]

@acancello

Thanks! I like your writing as well. You can see Eddie through the rational and technicality’s he gives to justify his behavior, something we all can related to at times.

I like the writing you gave for Jade as well. You show her character by the attention she immediately gains from a crowd in a train station, something that would be…[Read more]

@80strish

Sounds interesting! So they have a physical human appearance when not controlling someone? What lead them to the particular sets of clothing, did they just exist that way, or do they have control over there appearance, so they choose the form that they like best? Yeah, I would love to see more!

@80strish

Cool! So are the depictions the bodies of their partners, or do they just look like that when processing anyone? Are their partners humans that gave up their agency to the smokes for something in return? Ect?

@esther-c

Coo! Whatever direction you go with it, it sounds like it would be really fun to read!

@esther-c

Cool! So it sounds like you have the beginning of a elemental magic system (doesn’t have to be, but that’s always a fun route). Would there be a over arching theme for all the abilities? Would they emphasize some biblibical principles, perhaps ones learned specifically in the book of Esther?

@acancello

Also does anyone here know anything about describing people? Do they do it all in one place or do they spread it all throughout the chapter or whole book? I spread it out usually, but then think its better to read it all in one place…

That really depends on many many factors. Including your writing style, how much is relevant to c…[Read more]

@80strish

Cool! So they seem to each have there own medallion or something. Are they like some kind of group that controls some elements or something? What are there goals and motives as the villains?

@folith-feolin

Yep, the laws of Sanderson are a great guideline. I’ve watched all of his lectures, though I think I want to go through them all again.

@godlyfantasy12

Yep! Anything magical in some sense is part of your magic system. Shifters are obviously taking advantage of some magic in the world in some form. You don’t need to have a full fledged magic system, and that’s often what soft magic system becomes. It’s not rigorously defined, but it’s good to remember that it is consistent. Make…[Read more]

So I’m a descriptivist. Meaning that I believe that language is changes, and that can’t nor should be changed. This is where accents come from, because of subtle changes, then those become dialects, then languages. Scriptivism is the opposite where one believes that language has must have formal rules that should never be deviated from. One just…[Read more]

@gwyndalf-the-wise

Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll look into that!

Yeah, superpowers totally are a magic system, as well as sci fi concepts even. Though those things are not considered magical, they are defiantly fantastical elements that ultimately function the same ways a magic system would in a world. Yeah, you don’t need to be rigorous…[Read more]
