That’s pretty cool! I haven’t read a lot of mythology, or books with fake religions, but having a base for the mythology out of “real” history makes sense. In fact, something like that might help solve a few issues of my own, like why this other country has such a mixed up system of government and religion.

*Gazes off into the abyss*

@trailblazer

Absolutely welcome! I may have to struggle to finish something, but characters and random ideas are my cup of tea. 🙂

Bye!!!

@elishavet-pidyon

YES THE TRASHGRIFFINS

@whalekeeper

Probably both? Like, I want to have a better idea of how it all works (and why it’s magic, if that makes sense. Like Wingfeather has the Stones at the heart of the world.)

But I also do want to have it kinda randomly fantastic. It all started with my twin and I sitting with our feet in a hot tub and deciding the water was heated by…[Read more]

@loopylin

Um, yes?! It was a book before a movie, and the book is awesome.

And thank you. I love the little feathery guys too. Who needs regular street rats if you can have wats and wouses fluttering around.

@koshka

TRASHGRIFFINS!!!

@godlyfantasy12

AHHHHHH! SHE IS HERE?!?!

*Ahem*

Lovely aesthetics. I have never actually read Peter Pan or seen the movie, but I did just finish a rewrite that has definitely spiked my interest.

@whalekeeper

Hmm. I do have a series with a magic system, but as it’s a series I haven’t started writing yet (just outlining and world building *shudders*) the system isn’t all figured out.

But it’s like Wingfeather or Ella Enchanted (the book) style magic where it’s more a part of the way the world works than the regular book magic (not sure if…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

I was so confused………..XD

Just the fact that one of my protagonists is biracial brings up so many questions that have to be answered so I can sleep at night.

This stuff keeps you up too? XD

And oh. There’s so much. “World-building” is almost a deceivingly simple word. We’re literally making up worlds. This is micro-fictional-creation.

@elishavet-pidyon

And the fact that A_____’s captor is a bit of an infidel because he has spurned most of the religion for a form of stoicism. His wife is devout though, and it’s sad.

*Is sad with you*

@whalekeeper

XD

I suppose they are. *Nods sagely*

The evil/weird religious system in my WIP so far only has moon worship and possibly vag…[Read more]

@koshka

OoooOOOoohHHHHhhhhh nnnNNNNOOOOooooo…….

Yep.

I do have a rough mythology as much as I want to have it. The god of war and his consort the goddess of prosperity run around doing their thing while the god of the yurt (home/tent) tries to just keep the tents from burning in the chaos. I have decided not to go too in depth, since I…[Read more]

@elishavet-pidyon

Oh, and then you’ll have to figure out what the gods represent, and then you’ll have to have a basic mythology, and then there’s the question of how they teach this mythology….

@whalekeeper

*Sniffles* It’s okay. I think.

I may need boundaries.

XD

@whalekeeper

EXACTLY. XD I even started a language simply so I could have it on signs in the illustrations. Like, no one speaks it in the story, but it’s there??? It did help me figure out the social hierarchy though, since I had all these neat names and no names to put them to.

HOWEVER. I am rather proud of the Dorwain’s pagan religion, as dark…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

*Whimpers*

Maps? I tried. I really did.

*Screaming intensifies*

Yeah, I probably need to find some natural boundaries I can stick in. I’m not trying to be Tolkien. I just don’t know where to make it stop.

Not that I don’t love it at the same time…..

@keilah-h

It’s okay Keilah. The other day I called one of my characters something like “my little wolf child” and “baby”.

My older sister looked at me with this blank stare and asked who I was talking about because “Isn’t he the soldier?”

And then what if… if theresafoodcalledshoemashandyoudon’tknowwhybutyoumadeitupanditsoundsdelicousandnowyouhavetothinkofareasonbecauseyourfamlythinksit’snastysoundingso-

It’s porridge, but the “everything but the kitchen sink kind” and is delicous.
