Cloaked Mystery started the topic My new plotting method in the forum Plotting 2 years, 3 months ago
I have discovered a plotting method that so far has been very helpful for me. This is based on a video by Brandon Sanderson I watched. (I can share it if anyone wants to watch it.)
I created this template:
Setting
Physical Setting
Cultural Setting
Characters
Main Characters
[Character]
Arc
Side Characters
Plot
General Conflicts

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Conlangs! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 3 months ago
@everyone
I’ve already showed everyone my Árvendin conlang, but I have a few updates I could share. For quick reference, I’ll put my alphabet here.

I’ve been meticulously deciding how to indicate each letter is latinized characters. There’s still some overlap between letters, but I think most of the possible confusions have been cleared…[Read more] -
Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Conlangs! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 3 months ago
Cool! Did you create all the rules of this language before you created any words? I have found that it can be a bit annoying to have to fit all the words I have into the language, but it’s also nice to have some as a starting point.

What exactly do you mean? If you’re saying you want to go back to how it was at the beginning, I’m sure we could do that as well, although not everyone would necessarily want to participate in both. We’re going to create a new thread once we decide what we’re going to do, so you could use this one for what you origina…[Read more]

Hmm… this sure didn’t go far. Let’s revive it!

@everyone
So it sounds like there’s a general consensus that restarting/replacing the RP is the best option.
So, brainstorming phase. What did you like about this RP? What did you dislike? What made the RP go smoothly and what made it drag? What worked? What didn’t?

It is ambitious, but I’m prepared to not have an easy time with this one. This is by far my oldest WIP, and I don’t expect to finish it any time soon. I’m at least writing the Ildin Saga first.

@highscribeofaetherium @thearcaneaxiom @savannah_grace2009 @rae @grcr
I’ve been thinking about my plan for this series, and I am considering changing it a bit. I would maintain the same basic plot, but I would stretch it out a bit more. My original three book plan just did not feel like the right size to me. It felt like it was too short for a…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009 @rae @loopylin @whalekeeper
I don’t know what’s happening, but would anyone mind if one of my characters tags along? They don’t have anything to do right now. If not, I’ll just wait till you’re done, because I’m guessing this scene will end after that?

Lol. I have read all of that part.

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Character Party! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 3 months ago
I wasn’t in this RP for the party part at all, but I did enjoy the interactions between the characters when they were in the palace.

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Character Party! in the forum General Writing Discussions 2 years, 3 months ago
So…how different would the replacement be?
It would be as different as we wanted. I think the best course of action would be to figure out what the biggest problems were with this one and try to fix them. We could use the same characters (although if sone people wanted to use different ones that would probably be fine.) We could still use L…[Read more]

@highscribeofaetherium @rae @savannah_grace2009 @acancello @trailblazer @beth-torres @princesachronicle22 @keilah-h (is that everyone?)
I am beginning to wonder if we would be better off restarting/replacing this RP. We keep trying to get it going again, but it never works. Before, people were concerned that that would just kill both RPs, but…[Read more]

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic hi it's meeeeeeee in the forum Start HERE 2 years, 3 months ago
I generally isolate one of my character traits and exaggerate it (Ie my character Leo, who could represent the introverted/ arrogant side of myself)
I often do that too. For one thing I can make more characters based on me that way, but it also makes it so they aren’t just inserts of myself. Ironically, I don’t think I would get…[Read more]

Welcome to KP! I’m Jonas, more enigmatically known as Cloaked Mystery. I write mostly in the fantasy genre, but usually with hard rules that verge on sci-fi.

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Apologetics in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 2 years, 3 months ago
Yes, I essentially believe that morality is a reflection of God’s character. A common question is whether God commands things because they are good (which would make morality something beyond God) or certain things are good because God commands them (which would make God’s commandments arbitrary.) I think that the two are int…[Read more]

Cloaked Mystery replied to the topic Apologetics in the forum Mission, Calling & Ethics 2 years, 3 months ago
Interesting. So your point is that Omnibenevolence is not a requirement to be God, but He’s just good out of personality.
I would say that we can’t really comprehend “requirements” to be God. I think the requirements conform to who God is, but it’s not really possible to say, because a universe where God was different would be…[Read more]
