Just under the gun, but I got Melody’s character page up!

Writing excuses
I’ve been told I raise procrastination to an art form. Well, actually no, nobody’s ever said that, but I’ll get them to someday. More seriously, while I’ve been definitely doing more creation, I think a lot of it was getting some of the muscle back. And that’s not to say this is going to waste! […]
How hard is entering the realms?
Physically, not hard at all. The border between the three major realms vs the normal world (or “Scientific realm) can be walked across as easily as any state line or map border. Of course, there are defined border crossings and those are secured, and nominally the rest of it is monitored and secured. But as […]
Divine Marks: How they work, why they exist, and what the consequences are
Inside the realm areas, a lot of rules for physics and such are a bit different. But aside from various ‘passive’ things, there’s also what can be called ‘god magic’ (though there’s other terms in setting, often “Realm Psychoactive Energy” or “RPE” in a research context, because nobody likes using the word “Magic” in a […]
Thordani terms and sayings
One part that’s fun about writing is coming up with terms and sayings. Here’s a few from the Thordani.
Breathtaking
In the past, I did a lot of research on US WWII submarines. One thing of particular interest to me was the procedures for keeping the air breathable during submersion, which was later used in the Apollo program. US subs were not equipped with snorkels in WWII, so they were entirely battery powered when under. […]
Artwork Presentation, and the Plagiarism Machine
I have tried my hand at art a few times. Never really got good at it. Keeping focus on that was just…not where I could find fun. I was always more into building the stories! And then once I got into consistent RP, well, that was kinda that. That was more fun! Fortunately, there’s plenty […]
Character reference documents/galleries
So I’ve had a number of instances where my characters have had anatomical quirks develop in the various art I’ve gotten them in. Part of this is related to using the same characters in different canons (and thus different things happening) and not being rigid enough or communicating properly, but sometimes it’s more significant than […]
Rip and tear?
Let’s talk about anthropomorphic animal combat. Societies tend to place a pretty strong emphasis on preventing people from murdering each other, or doing other things that strike at the very social cohesion that keeps a city working. We have, of course, created lots of ways to bypass this as a species, and just as many […]
Faenya Lore start
Just a quick blurb about Faenya in my “Wings and Prayers” setting. Writing it down here to build off of later. Faenya is NOT a primary mover and shaker in the greyhawk theme, she’s a elven god of avariel in core canon. And given the Thorsari OBVIOUSLY got suboptimal land placement, here’s my pitch. THe […]
