This is something I’ve actually been working on with my WIP Healer. I find it has become easier to do this than the standard lists of questions on websites, downloads, etc.

For example, when worldbuilding for the races I thought, what if only some of them had opposable thumbs? What if only some of them stood upright? And so, F…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

That makes sense to me, but I might just be weird. I find that a very good point. I don’t really have any two cents to add, but I’ll probably be stalking this topic and commenting on other people’s thoughts lol.

@thearcaneaxiom

No, that totally makes sense! I love the ideas from Brandon Sanderson’s books you mentioned, though I haven’t read about any of them. Yes, in my opinion, worldbuilding should start with an idea instead of a formula, but I also think sheets like that are good ways to inspire something if you’re feeling blank, because you can’t…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

Gotcha, I see 😉

@thearcaneaxiom

I agree and am fully interested in literally everything you said XD And it is certainly interesting when magic acts on itself; I can’t say I’ve seen it too often, but I get what you’re going for.

@everyone

I had a kinda-idea once, branching off a book I once read – what if the magic was a being?…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12 Oooh!

This’ll be fun.

Whenever I see it in other stories, powers/gifts/stuff you were born with and “magic” that you learned are usually separate. In my own stories, that’s kinda hard to distinguish.

Snake, for example, who you’ve met in one of the RPs, was born with what’s called “magic” in his story. He can manipulate…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

Yeah, I guess it’ll just depend. Sort of, yeah, because they’re in the Nowhere? I didn’t really notice that the first two seemed darker, but I only read the beginning of the third one.

@freedomwriter76 😁

@mineralizedwritings I’m pretty good, hru? ❤️

@thearcaneaxiom

Ohhhh, yeah, probably not 😅. Thanks anyway, though! Ugh, yes, ikr.

Oh, okay 🤔 That’s weird.. ok, thanks! I’ll have to maybe check them out!

Ahhh, gotcha. Yeah, I read the summary of the third one and it seemed like maybe it was going in a darker direction, idk.…[Read more]

Wow.. that was a lot of books xD I guess I should’ve expected that. Thanks for replying everyone! I’ll try to answer all of them, lol

@whalekeeper

Yep! In my opinion, the second one got a little weird but I might still finish it.. just skip over some parts.

Oooh, I’ll have to check that one out! It looks kind of interesting! Thanks!…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom my dad really likes the Dune series. He’s always searching for the prequel series he has a couple books of whenever we’re at the bookstore.

@thearcaneaxiom

I have yet to finish Dune, but I intend to

@highscribeofaetherium @thearcaneaxiom

@thearcaneaxiom thanks for helping me explain!

@pixie I get what you thought about making Interstellar more hopeful in its outcome!

Also, I have a feeling @thearcaneaxiom could probably be a bit better at explaining the whole four dimensions thing than I could, considering he even has animals in his story which follow those rules, but I found a video I saw once which might explain some (and…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

So with the faeries, I wanted to call back to traditional fairy tales, where you have these mystical beings who could be either good or evil, everybody has different takes on it, different stories– they seem to appear out of nowhere sometimes, and then other times they were part of the community for a long time with few people…[Read more]

The answer to your question: Either money, or because they don’t want to lose their job.

@thearcaneaxiom

Hello!! I won’t take your opinion as a grain of what because your opinion matters and I low-key need criticism 😅. Let me explain my idea a bit better. I’m trying to go for 1/3 original, 1/3 tangled, and 1/3 my personal idea.

In the original story, the guy who finds rapunzel is a prince; in tangled, he’s a thief; and so I wanted…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

A forum all about questions… where have I seen that?🤔 Eeh, probably nowhere, right?😂

*shrugs* Doesn’t sound familiar to me. 😂

@acancello

I say just do whatever works for you. I mainly work on one WIP, but I have tons of others that are either just ideas floating around in my brain or have been manifested into moodboards. XD The…[Read more]
