I don’t really know your characters, but as long as they are different enough in other respects, I think it’s fine. Most people are protective of something, so it makes sense that characters would be too.

I don’t play too much for my own enjoyment, but when I do it is often hymns, which I arrange myself. I also play music in church, so I have to practice that.

Hymns are awesome. My dad has talked about getting my siblings and I to play at church, but we don’t want to. And we already have a flute guy.

RP stands for Role Play. Basically we h…

Awesome! I’ve read all of those except Stormlight 4, which I’m in the middle of. Are you about to read Yumi then, since your in the middle of the secret projects?

I will probably read The Sunlit Man first, since that one is available at my library. I had Yumi, but alas, it was returned before I read it. ☹️

Yeah, I’m not sure, lol!…

Hello! Your projects sound really cool. I love fantasy.

Thank you!😊

I play piano as well. I like it sometimes. What kind of music do you like to play?

Hello! Your projects sound really cool. I love fantasy.

Some of my favorite authors are Tolkien and Brandon Sanderson.

They are some of my favorites too!

Wow. That…was unexpected. I will try to send the picture again later.

@thearcaneaxiom

Yep, Grandpa Smedry is the best! So you’ve read Alcatraz, and you mentioned Kaladin earlier, what other Sanderson books have you read?

I’ve read Skyward, Tress of the Emerald Sea, A Frugal Wizard’s Guide to Surviving Medieval England, and all of the Stormlight Archive except Dawnshard, which I think I have from the library, but i…[Read more]

Welcome to KP! I missed your initial arrival due to being sick, but now I’m here! 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. I like creating magic systems, usually hard ones, but I have a few soft-ish ones. My current project, whi…[Read more]

Hello!

Cool Username

Thanks!

I did make an intro post, but Wyoh ate it 😠

How dare she! I got a notification that you had posted here, but then I couldn’t find it and was very confused.

It all began when a mysterious person posted one singular post on an RP, then deleted their account. The one post was their only post, and KP  showed not the…

We don’t really hike in our state, (IN), either. I’ve never been to New Hampshire, so I don’t know how they compare. I have seen pictures of the west though, and it’s beautiful. I definitely want to go there someday.

@thearcaneaxiom

 I’m much more of a hard worldbuilder myself, but I have strong respect for soft worldbuilding when done right. (If you need help with ideas for hard stuff, I’d love to help if such help is wanted!)

Thanks! A few tips would be nice, but I’m mostly focusing on my other WIPs right now.

I love Alcatraz! Have you read the full seri…

There should be 24, so 23 will die, leaving one as winner.

@rae

To me, all of those have a distinct flavor, except maybe Igua. I think that Nahim and Alpha definitely are distinct enough. For Silvanis, the fact that he focuses on protecting a specific person, makes him a bit more distinct. So, as long as each character as their own interesting characteristics, I think this is fine.

@whalekeeper

👏

@rae

I agree with everyone else. That would’ve basically been what I’d’ve said.

@rae

I think readers do tend to notice when an author writes about similar ideas.

I don’t think it’s necessarily bad for so many characters to have that motivation, but I would try to avoid having too many of them have it as their main motivation, especially main characters.

I know that all of these characters are from the same universe, but…[Read more]

Oops, I misspelled your tag

@arcaneaxiom

Hi! I generally lean more towards soft worldbuilding, though I am trying to create a world with harder worldbuilding. (I haven’t actually come up with any good ideas yet though.) My duck world has a very soft magic system, in which pretty much every weird magic idea I’ve had exists. Including a singing pineapple.

My favorite concept…[Read more]

@esther-c @keilah-h

I know I said I would RP! I’m so sorryyyy I’ve been busier than expected 😅😭

@loopylin

Also, you should meet @ava-blue , aka Queen of the Chicken Nation.

…if she would actually show her online face on here for once *sigh*

Oooh! A chicken nation! 👀
