Writing i need some help with world building IMPLICATIONS (urban fantasy)

[BenJepheneT]

let me get this out of the way: I've never done any substantial world-building before in my life. frankly, they bore me. it's not to the detriment of the practice, it's to my own fault. i find other aspects of storytelling to be much more interesting.

and to cut the long story short, if you ask me to world-build, you'll find that I'm quite shit at it.

which is why I've come here, grovelling on shit-ridden knees and bruised elbows to ask of the help from you world-building gods.

contrary to my words, I've done some world-building. and to be honest, I've got next to no idea whether if it works or it doesn't.

here's the basic gist of it:

---

During the turn of the second millennium (around 1000BC), women woke up one morning and found themselves able to summon weapons out of their will. Be it clubs, swords, daggers, maces or axes. They just could. Most were limited to a single weapon, but some could wield two. There were even cases of one being able to use different kinds of weapons at the same time.

The weapons themselves were seemingly omnipotent and indestructible. Even a small, inconspicuous blade could withstand the fiercest of flames and the weight of many horses. Not even the wielder herself could mould its shape. If willed so, the wielder can form a weapon in a solid object and replace its space. The object itself would have its occupied space vanish without a trace, with no hint of tamper aside from the obvious cavern left by the weapon. Many scams have happened over female merchants using this trick to their benefit.

Even so, the weapons still obeyed the laws of physics. They couldn't float in mid-air or walk on water unless their original property allowed it to be. There was no condition for the weapon to be manifested, as long as the wielder is conscious and willing. The opposite rang true too. They generally appeared on the wielder’s dominant hand, but trained professionals may be able to conjure them beyond their bodies. They also operated under a set range. These varied and may be extended with practice. If the wielder leaves the weapon’s range, it would disappear as if the wielder willed it to. Other than that, there was no set time limit, temperature, altitude, space; nothing.

The women had no choice in what weapon they were given, regardless of their upbringing. They may not even have seen nor heard of it before. A farmer with no prior experience in blacksmithing or combat training may be bestowed a war hammer she may only ever understand as a helpful wedge for her sliding wagon while a trained paladin serving directly under the king might end up with a small, bronze dagger to boot.

There were even cases where many women find themselves unable to wield their given weapon. These were mostly applied to children’s first experience with their weapons. Fate was an indiscriminate entity, gifting tools of destruction like a blind man tossing feeding seeds at a pack of dogs. Parents are to keep great care of their babies, otherwise, they may have an accident with their first weapon manifestation. It happens at any point, whether it's as early as their first few months in the cradle or as late as their sixth birthday. Either way, a great eye must be kept lest they swallow their garrote or suffocate under their broadsword.

It is worthy of note, however, that the weapons manifested will follow current inventions. As time passes, a manifested dagger would begin to show signs of modernizations, like a more ergonomic grip, or mechanics like folding pivots and, in some cases, appearing as a ballistic knife. Since then, women of age have been required to report on their given weapons to a respective government department. Audits are also conducted on weapons manufacturers around the world to gain a better expectation on what sort of weapon manifestation would appear in the future, and to make sure they create something within strict, civilian-safety guidelines.

It should also be noted that this world is set in an urban fantasy, where you can find orcs using iPhones and goblins throwing gang signs on Snapchat and elves whoring out on OnlyQueens. It should ALSO be noted that in this world, the idea of gunpowder is never utilized as a weapon. In short, guns and cannons and by extension, fighter jets and tanks don't exist, though crossbows and other ballistic weapons do. They thought of fireworks and using them in machinery but never once considered the fact that they could be used to kill if utilized in a propulsive method. It's only called gunpowder because, in this setting, a centaur called John Gun discovered it. There is no reason behind this. It's an illogical world-building decision made for irrational and satirical purposes. if you REALLY wanna ask, i just think it's funny subtext.

okay, so here's my main concern: what are the implications if this were to happen? i can draw a few guesses, but i'd rather save myself from the embarrassment as I'm about as educated as a seagull in this subject. best i could come up with is a heavy shift within gender roles, and that's it.

if you want to ask about the theme in which I've built this around, there's none. it's a completely optional piece of lore in the story i made up just so i could set up a femdom-turned-domination-loss smut scenario. however, a little elaboration and depth wouldn't hurt, and my life's motto is why not, so I'm here extended a palm, requesting for assistance in expanding this little tidbit of lore i have for my world.

if you want to come in and have a laugh at my expense, feel free. i'd laugh at myself if I could see this from a third party's perspective. if you genuinely have some suggestion or correction to make, no matter how small it is, i want that shit. please. give it to me. i need everything i can get my shit-ridden hands on.

lol sounds like a way to create a matriarchy

Well if you think in the terms of our hunter/gatherer beginnings, this would almost certainly put women more in the "Hunter" role. While there is still periods and pregnancy to contend with, (large reasons why women originally were kept closer to home as gatherers) Having magical indestructible weapons would be invaluable while hunting.

This would change social dynamics in a big way. Men would likely stay home in the gatherer role, only becoming hunters at need, when the woman is down for natural reasons. This would definitely make the world more matriarchal as women become primary bread-winners.

Further down the line, this means women by in large are probably more often overtly agressive instead of relying on simply passive aggressiveness to defend themselves. Thanks to weapons equalizing the fact that they are physically less imposing. There would be less need. Although, that doesn't mean the alternative responses would be gone, just that they would have more options. They would be more of the face of society and wars for generations to come.

As for the "randomness of fate" There would be a definite hierarchy I of women based on the weapons they receive and their use. Not all are created equal, and you would likely be judged based on your weapon as well as your other qualities.

As for the fate of men? They wouldn't necessarily be servile, they still have their strengths. They would fill in a lot of the workforce where weapons aren't involved, as well as be more primary homemakers. They would have their own power but likely in more background roles.

*I would write more but I have to go. I may or may not be able to edit more and later.

best i could come up with is a heavy shift within gender roles

I wouldn't even say this is necessary. Could only the summoners hold the weapons? If not then not much would change. Women would give their weapons to their men. And if a woman is blessed with two then there's a possibility of polyandry. Clans would form. Eugenics, selective breeding, etc. Such behavior might die down as time goes on, but the polygamy might stick.


Unless the weapons are so strong as to make the difference in strength negligible. Then you'd have a mainly matriarchal world as mentioned above. Though, there'd be a significant lack of development in the world as well as conflict.

 

[BearlyAlive]

If they can give away or maybe even grant others their weapons, they'd play a more 'religious' role and depending on how you want your culture to be they would be the heads of their respective cultural hierachy.

Otherwise they'd just be the worst of both worlds. While us males were more aggressive, women hold their grudges waaay longer and are more fierce. And they're way meaner, poison and manipulation have been historically way more common on females than on males. (Only my opinion, please don't hurt me!)

 

[Zirrboy]

The biggest question imo would be what threats exist in this world.

If this is really just an urban setting, then I'd think the effect would be similar to making half the population natural martial artists: Show duels and the likes would be a lot more popular.
And for a smut setting that might even suffice.

If you go with the suggestions above and largely reverse work distribution, women would probably end up taller due to improved food situation.

you gotta make the toys good and strong before you break them, you know?

Clans would form. Eugenics, selective breeding, etc. Such behavior might die down as time goes on, but the polygamy might stick.

the weapons, aside from its summoned quirks, operate pretty much like a normal, physical object. anyone beyond the summoner could hold them, but like i said, they operate under a set range. and that range is pretty small. like the width of a bedroom at average.

Unless the weapons are so strong as to make the difference in strength negligible. Then you'd have a mainly matriarchal world as mentioned above. Though, there'd be a significant lack of development in the world as well as conflict.

the weapons are strong in the sense that they are indestructible, but they can't be utilized beyond their initial purpose. a dagger that doesn't melt in lava is great, yes, but what else can i really do other than "won't break"? the summoners themselves AREN'T indestructible though, so i'd presume that the internal conflict would resolve itself quickly and the turn of history will proceed as normal with a slight bump in the middle.

If they can give away or maybe even grant others their weapons, they'd play a more 'religious' role and depending on how you want your culture to be they would be the heads of their respective cultural hierachy.

they can't give away or grant weapons, but they can probably make a cult around one specific weapon, i guess. if we really wanna go urg durg caveman, the bigger the weapon the higher up you step on the cultural heirarchy.

If this is really just an urban setting, then I'd think the effect would be similar to making half the population natural martial artists: Show duels and the likes would be a lot more popular.

funnily enough, i have a tournament arc planned just for this. nothing big or deep or sprawling; just women getting their shit kicked in by other women. gon b gud

I don't see any significant difference in combat. If a summoned sword can't cut through a regular one, then it's just a very sturdy sword. These abilities would be most prominent before the production of steel - where a summoned item would be magnitudes better than a crudely crafted one. Their importance will eventually die down as time goes on.

pretty much. But indestructible metal can be very, very lucrative. if you can attach a bunch of knives/daggers onto a machine instead of diamond-tipped drills or cutters. It'd would save a ton of money. So, some women could sit in a factory doing nothing while their items are used.

Though, you can still have the matriarchal idea you want in the form of an ancient clan. They have been around for centuries honing their skills as assassins/mercenaries way before the industrial revolution.

it can, actually. the idea is that the women are simply given weapons with infinite durability, everything varies; craftsmanship, egronomics, etc. it's just up to whether the user is able to do it or not.

I've considered this before but screening for same-sized tips and forging a machinery that can hold these weapons in place while functioning could be tricky. i guess this could be a small, female-only part-time job within the world.

Though, you can still have the matriarchal idea you want in the form of an ancient clan. They have been around for centuries honing their skills as assassins/mercenaries way before the industrial revolution.

i was thinking more on how it'll affect current society. technically speaking, both genders ARE equal but no one would deny that men still take most of the higher seats on the societal hierarchy. I'm just wondering how it'll translate when this phenomenon happened. would the script simply be flipped, or will it just have a mix of two?

 

[greyblob]

durability has nothing to do with such unnatural levels of sharpness. in war, for example, a sword wouldn't matter from the rest. your sword was chipped, broken? just pick another from one of the corpses below. dunno, I feel like I'm severely downplaying this, but it's all I can imagine from a logical standpoint.

men still take most of the higher seats on the societal hierarchy.

The thing is, men's ambition is more focused on achievements. A child is much more important for most women than a prize or discovery. And women tend to avoid heavy laborious/dangerous jobs. Would a woman blessed with a hammer dedicate her life to breaking down rocks just because she was gifted with an indestructible, more efficient tool? Probably not. She'd go there, throw the hammer to some dude and chill while making bank.

Maybe contract-like system for women? A surgeon needing a scalpel applies for a 'donor'. Better tool, better result, better pay. Just a thought.
I doubt much would be different from now though.

i'm not sure where you're going with this. all I'm saying is that the women are given weapons that will never break. they never chip, never dull, never go lump. apart from varying default stats, the weapons can be as effective as a hammer, if one tries to use it as such.

if the weapon gets wet or dirtied by blood, they can just unsummon it and summon it again and it comes back like brand new. the quality never deteriorates. that's the idea.

She'd go there, throw the hammer to some dude and chill while making bank.

i feel like after living thousands of years' worth of completely different circumstances, these roles would probably change. it won't be a direct effect, but the advent of having a trusted weapon by your side for all your life would probably spur a great number of woman to chase something else. no doubt their biological purpose would remain, but as seen from our current cultural climate, we aren't strangers to playing god to ourselves.

there will definitely be discrepancies throughout the demographic. there'll be a woman who chases the war hammer dream while another one simply loans her weapon while she does stocks. practically speaking, though, the latter would be hard. like i said, they only work at a certain range. it varies between individuals, but they will disappear once they go beyond the aforementioned range. and that range is small. living room type small. you practically have to stick real close for it to work.

Maybe contract-like system for women? A surgeon needing a scalpel applies for a 'donor'. Better tool, better result, better pay. Just a thought.
I doubt much would be different from now though.

that contract would probably be unpopular and only ever taken by neets. that surgeon scenario would only work in an operating theatre, and needs the contracted to stay there for the whole duration. it'll probably be a special-case kind of an occupation where the time invested severely outweighs the pay.

 

[greyblob]

i'm not sure where you're going with this.

I'm saying it could or could not have that big of an impact. It'll definitely have severe consequences early on, but the abilities might be negligible later on. It all depends on what you want to achieve. There's more than a single route for development.

well, i wanna make a semi-matriarchy society, so i guess i can go with that route.

let me get this out of the way: I've never done any substantial world-building before in my life. frankly, they bore me. it's not to the detriment of the practice, it's to my own fault. i find other aspects of storytelling to be much more interesting.

and to cut the long story short, if you ask me to world-build, you'll find that I'm quite shit at it.

which is why I've come here, grovelling on shit-ridden knees and bruised elbows to ask of the help from you world-building gods.

They just could. Most were limited to a single weapon, but some could wield two. There were even cases of one being able to use different kinds of weapons at the same time.

The weapons themselves were seemingly omnipotent and indestructible. Even a small, inconspicuous blade could withstand the fiercest of flames and the weight of many horses. Not even the wielder herself could mould its shape. If willed so, the wielder can form a weapon in a solid object and replace its space. The object itself would have its occupied space vanish without a trace, with no hint of tamper aside from the obvious cavern left by the weapon. Many scams have happened over female merchants using this trick to their benefit.

Even so, the weapons still obeyed the laws of physics. They couldn't float in mid-air or walk on water unless their original property allowed it to be. There was no condition for the weapon to be manifested, as long as the wielder is conscious and willing. The opposite rang true too. They generally appeared on the wielder’s dominant hand, but trained professionals may be able to conjure them beyond their bodies. They also operated under a set range. These varied and may be extended with practice. If the wielder leaves the weapon’s range, it would disappear as if the wielder willed it to. Other than that, there was no set time limit, temperature, altitude, space; nothing.

The women had no choice in what weapon they were given, regardless of their upbringing. They may not even have seen nor heard of it before. A farmer with no prior experience in blacksmithing or combat training may be bestowed a war hammer she may only ever understand as a helpful wedge for her sliding wagon while a trained paladin serving directly under the king might end up with a small, bronze dagger to boot.

There were even cases where many women find themselves unable to wield their given weapon. These were mostly applied to children’s first experience with their weapons. Fate was an indiscriminate entity, gifting tools of destruction like a blind man tossing feeding seeds at a pack of dogs. Parents are to keep great care of their babies, otherwise, they may have an accident with their first weapon manifestation. It happens at any point, whether it's as early as their first few months in the cradle or as late as their sixth birthday. Either way, a great eye must be kept lest they swallow their garrote or suffocate under their broadsword.

It is worthy of note, however, that the weapons manifested will follow current inventions. As time passes, a manifested dagger would begin to show signs of modernizations, like a more ergonomic grip, or mechanics like folding pivots and, in some cases, appearing as a ballistic knife. Since then, women of age have been required to report on their given weapons to a respective government department. Audits are also conducted on weapons manufacturers around the world to gain a better expectation on what sort of weapon manifestation would appear in the future, and to make sure they create something within strict, civilian-safety guidelines.

1 Well, assuming that science is just as good as it is now, at the very least bombs and planes should probably exist. In chemistry there are many explosive compounds. If there was no one who weaponized it, that would be crazy, much less the discovery of nuclear fission. Now then, guns might not exist. Maybe because a matriarchal government stoped their development, or the idea of using explosions to propel projectiles never really came to fruition.

2 If fantasy races exist, what are their histories?

3 It is currently assumed that women would be in power, but would that always be true? Are there any meritocracies that contrast that? Any other types of hierarchies? Like one where elders are the ones to make decisions, the rich, or maybe dragons?

4 How prevalent is war? If all women can summon weapons, then violence might be common.

5 How advanced is their technology?

Maybe because a matriarchal government stoped their development, or the idea of using explosions to propel projectiles never really came to fruition.

Planes, yes, but bombs no. And yeah, it is crazy, and I understand it is as illogical as it goes. The notion of using projectile or explosives as weaponry simply never came to fruition in people's heads. It just never got expanded beyond the idea of a crossbow or a dynamite stick. The latter isn't even considered a weapon. It's just one of the many unexplained, illogical phenomenon of the world, alongside the women-summoning-weapons thing.

As for nuclear fission and other explosive compounds, they're simply seen as hazards without the potential for weaponization. They're seen less as a tool of mass destruction and more like an unstable skyscraper - an accident they should avoid at all cost.

I reiterate - I do agree that it doesn't make sense, and yes, it doesn't. It's just how it goes in that world. It's meant to be played as ironic comedy, like even with how violent the world got with infinite summoned weapons, guns and bombs simply didn't exist as a concept.

2 If fantasy races exist, what are their histories?

I admit; the fantasy races are only really there just so I can lewd them. This is for a smut series, you see. I always wanted to have a threesome with a goblin and a female, bearded dwarf, so I just made the story a fantasy. But I also don't like the fantasy genre/setting; I just prefer contemporary settings better. Hence, urban fantasy. That's it. That's my reasoning.

But that doesn't mean I won't try to justify their existence. It should be noted that I made this all up at the seat of my pants in a drunken, one-night furious writing jam, so do expect them to make no sense whatsoever.

Let me explain this to the best of my abilities:

Spoiler

When evolution happened, somehow the Genus Homo became the basis for all species. As the animals evolved, every animal started to diverge with an ape-like counterpart. Say there's a rabbit. Somewhere down the line, they evolved both ways; one of them is the common lagomorphs you see, while the other is what is soon coined as a beastkin. In simple terms, they are rabbits who walk on two legs and act/perform tasks much like humans. There are exceptions, like the hamsters, which never really found the chance to flourish due to their severe retardation, along with most of the aquatic zoology and other small rodents and amphibians. Other animals, however, like elephants and giraffes and other generic animals you can pull out a children's encyclopedia managed to get the gift of intelligence, and moved on.

Aside from a fucked up evolution tree, there's also heaven and hell. Yes, the two exists, with angels and demons in their respective habitats. However, they don't exist like the conventional heaven and hell. Heaven and hell exist AS a physical place one can visit, but they co-exist with the regular world in the same location, only in a different wavelength. If you're confused, which I don't doubt you are, let me try to elaborate on this:

Imagine you're in a living room. Are you imagining that living room? Good. Now imagine that there are TWO living rooms, but they exist at the same place at the same location in the same time frame. That's what I meant. If you're still confused, it basically works like the Nether and The End and the Overworld from Minecraft. They all co-exist under the same plane of existence, and do not interfere with one another.

Okay, I might've lied about that last part. See, heaven and hell and the original world (henceforth dubbed as OG world) do interact with one another. People from heaven and hell can visit the OG world in certain spots of the planet. These are known as hotspots. They can come and go from the OG world and their respective heaven/hell whenever they please, as long as they are within the hotspots.

As for the residents of both heaven and hell, I'll start from heaven first; the ONLY inhabitants of heaven are angels. They're essentially just humans with wings and halos. They can't fly, but they can glide. The halos do nothing, other than be a halo and emit a miniature glow. They do not require sleep, food, or nourishment, but they do engage with them for leisure. Other than that, they can simply go about their day like anyone else. They age similar to humans, but are less likely to succumb to sickness and diseases, though they are physically weaker with slimmer average builds and skinnier bodies. There are other niches and small details to the angels, but I'll leave it at that. They are less like biblical angels and more like the modern interpretations of what an angel looks like. It is known that most angels like to spend time on the OG world, since heaven is mostly a barren, flat land with not many resources. They still have houses and parks and structures of the like similar to the OG world, but they're nothing compared to the winding landscapes and wildlife of the OG world.

There is one incident in the world where some angels tried to take over the OG world for their gain, and attempted a crusade with a manifesto similar to our IRL Bible claiming that the angels are the superior races meant to rule over all forms of existence and that by doing so, they can redeem the lesser creatures into becoming beings of pure nivarna. The plan didn't go far, but remnants of its religion still exist in minor groups around the world, mostly spearheaded by angel supremacists unironically believing in the manifesto. As unfavourable of an incident it was, it's also an example of the angel's diplomatic skills, as they are shown to be able to rally a whole fucken religion much in the same vein of the inquisitions of the past, just without smallpox and the guns (though colonization is inevitable).

Hell, on the other hand, is completely different. Demons take the role of angels. Again, they are much like humans, only that they have horns and tails, and come in different skin colours ranging from hues of red to green to blue. They're like the demonic RGB versions of humans. Opposite of the angels, they age faster than humans, and are most likely to succumb to sickness and diseases, but they are gifted with enhanced physical abilities from the get-go, which is why most demons you see are muscular tomboys or baras. Hell itself is much like the common, modern depiction of hell, but only in landscape. Truthfully, hell is basically the Himalayas but instead of snow and lakes, it's inferno and lava. (Oh yeah, demons are also immune to burns; which is why they mostly take jobs that centre around welding metal with hard labour.) The demons just kinda got used to the landscape, and built houses and structures around them and live.

However, unlike the angels, they need food and water and sleep and nourishment; more so than the common human, in fact. They are also more physically sensitive, and thus, are great for fucking, but that's beside the point. And since they need nourishment, that means hell has its own version of fauna. (No flora, though. Demons are a mostly carnivore species, but since they can also be omnivorous and even herbivorous without incident; they just have to eat a whole lot more, and beware of allergies or diet incompatibility.) These faunas are mostly hellhounds and pig-like creatures and Cerberus and dragons and wyverns. These animals do not follow the fantasy or mythological depictions; they behave mostly like regular wildlife, only that they're bigger in size and that the latter two breathe fire. They can be tamed, and delicious if cooked right, might I add.

Contrary to angels, demons don't have many reasons to cross over to the OG world. But some demons still do. Some would cross over and decide to stay while others simply want a change of scenery and see some ponds that aren't set ablaze 24/7. Sometimes, the demons would cross over, bringing their livestock with them. This, in turn, led to a slow introduction of other species in the wildlife of the OG world. As they live longer in the OG world, the fucked-up evolution hits them, and this is how kobolds and ogres and ogres are the like are introduced into the fantasy races. As civilization progresses, demons looking to make business with fauna and spices in trade for exclusive hell meats and end up becoming permanent citizens of the OG world, sometimes acting as a middle-man between the two planes.

Then somewhere down the line, crossbreeding happened. I mean, the globe is only so big, and fishes in the sea are bound to meet other kinds of fishes more than they meet their own kind. This has led to a culture where everyone is more encouraged to procreate with their own races as some sort of social responsibility to carry on their species. Baby making is seen even more as a pro, so much so that sperm banks are considered to be one of the pillars of species longevity. This, in turn, also led to a more lenient view in cuckery, as there is a strong, extra subtext going beneath it.

As an extra note, I usually self-insert as the ugly bastard/blonde dark skin delinquent in most NTR doujins, so this is right down my deviant alley.

There is an exception to this rule, however. Humans, or more specifically, female humans, are universal breeders of the world. When a human male fucks a female otter beastkin, nothing happens. They'd just have a fun woo-hoo time. However, when a male otter beastkin fucks a human female, they will produce a demihuman. They're basically the anime catgirls and cowgirls you see in isekai. This crossbreeding has been prevalent throughout history, and as all societies are doomed to repeat, these demihumans are mostly shunned as impure creatures. Of course, they've become more accepted as more of them are introduced into the world (partly due to horny women and giant animal/demon cock). (The exceptions to this rule are demons and angels and humans. The three can fuck one another and have babies. Results vary, but they are also known as demihumans.) Any species and I mean ANY species can procreate with a human female, and thus, goblins and trolls and dwarfs and elves and centaurs and more animal demihumans get introduced into the gene pool. As for these new races, they can mostly procreate among themselves, but seeing that they come from more or less the same familiy, it isn't uncommon to see offsprings coming from the two.

I should also add that the depictions of the other species aren't traditional or according to D&D. Most of these races I've redesigned myself for optimal fuckability. I won't go in deep into those redesigns, I'll just mention it as an extra note.

By the way, elves have digitigrade legs. Now live with that.

P.S: I don't know where to add this, so I'll put it here: people from the OG world cannot go to heaven, but they can go to hell. They just can't stay for long due to habitual differences. Advancement in technology would help them survive longer, but permanent residence is impossible. Also, demons can't go to heaven, and vice versa. Only angles can go to heaven.

3 It is currently assumed that women would be in power, but would that always be true? Are there any meritocracies that contrast that? Any other types of hierarchies? Like one where elders are the ones to make decisions, the rich, or maybe dragons?

My idea is that the world basically goes as normal, but women take more of a prevalent role than they once did in history. It'll become more of a mix between the two sexes. There'll definitely be some societies where hardcore femdom matriarchy exists, but those are more like extreme subsections. Aside from more female-centric raiding parties and groups, nothing much changes.

4 How prevalent is war? If all women can summon weapons, then violence might be common.

Now this, I don't know. I have no fucking clue. I presume that if the weapons are permanent, fights will only go to the death to the point where only the strongest survive. My current plan is to assume wars exploded in quantity during the early ages but die down soon since the weaponry is infinitely sourced. Violence will certainly exist in a higher capacity in modern society, but law enforcement and the notion of self-defence would surely be more intense to combat that phenomenon.

5 How advanced is their technology?

Like our world, but as I said, no guns or bombs.

Forwarded it to a friend. The passage in the beginning is what I told them, so that's the reason there are some aspects mentioned that you already decided. Hope it helps regardless.

I feel bad now because now you gotta explain to this friend that this lore is nothing more than an excuse to have a femdom subtext in a smut series.

Nevertheless, I will try to discuss the points he gave out. One by one.

1. I've done this to some degree, though I'm not sure if it's accurate since I'm as much of a sociologist as I am Bill Gates. The female race, in this world, is seen as the superior sex compared to males. They're now more aggressive and selective in finding mates, and in a locked room with a man, they're seen as the threat more so than the guy. They're more likely to be seen to take the protective role while males retain their more hot-headed instigating personalities. This doesn't mean the whole scale is skewed. There's a higher balance between the two, since men, at the end of the day, are still physically superior. It's just that the gap is closed by a noticeable margin.

2. I'm taking a combination of the two. There's not much I can elaborate on from here. Men have their biological predisposition, but the women have the jump start that is their weapons. There'll definitely be different cultures from different lands where women are seen as chosen tools under military settings or seen as superior fighters. And, since women still retain their organization skills from early civilization, they'd most probably take a majority of the offices as strategists and accountants while men take the labour work.

3. No ranged weaponry, as stated. But bows and arrows/slings do exist. They are considered rare forms of weaponry, and due to the limited range they hold (you can shoot an arrow and have it pierce someone but they can remove it just by stepping out of your weapon range, and that range is quite small for the most part, leading to a heavy emphasis on guerilla tactics, and bow and arrows don't work well under such scenarios) they aren't as effective. As for the urban fantasy part, as I said, I just wanted an excuse to fuck an Amazonian-built orc on a Tesla bed, but they are also there to serve an extra spice in the form of a fantasy, social narrative (no IRL racial parallels; just in-depth fantasy 'what if's), and also because Bright (2017) was such a fucking disappointment that it compelled me to fix it myself.

4. Again, I feel like this is missing context on the mechanics of the lore. These races have no say/choice on what kind of weapon they'll receive, neither can they modify it apart from making external changes that will disappear once the weapon is unsummoned and resummoned. They can only have one at a time, and they only work at a set range. However, I will agree that strange, and mismatched pairings would lead to some fighting styles that best suit (or compromise) both worlds.

5. I am planning to add those, but their purpose would lean more towards characterization than any giant thematic purpose. I mostly write character-driven stories with a more personal focus. As such, I'd usually take liberties with the world-building and lore, even if it's at the expense of making the setting more interesting. I will add that yes, there will be some preconceptions on women and what kind of weapon they get gifted with, though they'd be seen more like star signs and birth months and astronomy and other Tik Tok teen witch mythical bullshit in terms of symbolism. "Oh my god, she's got a war hammer. She's a Scorpio too. I knew she's a bit of a bitch" type of shit would probably happen.

6. Oh boy, I'm reeling in guilt already. Zirr, do tell your friend that I apologize because there won't be any strong or emotional story element to it. My MC is an underdog, yes, but it doesn't affect much of the story beat at all. In fact, he has a military background and has decent brawling prowess to boot, and the only reason I made him such is that I want to have a femdom-turned-domination-loss hatefucking scenario. But yes, it's gonna be a partly matriarchal setting where women mostly reign supreme in these types of scenarios. He won't be that wuxia OP protagonist that curb stomps every part of the way, but if he gets into 10 fights, he'd win at least 6-7 of them. 8 on a good day. He's gonna have character arcs, but they are more or less independent from the setting. The setting DOES influence his decisions and progression, but it will only be in minor nudges.

Again, I apologize. It's really a pointless concept I expanded on a whim simply because I could and I would and I did. But hey, it's an interesting concept, so no harm no foul.

7. Contrary to that, I quite enjoy the narrow direction the setting forced me into. That means I'd have a straighter focus and more opportunities to subvert and fuck around the genre whenever I see fit. In fact, it doesn't feel like a narrow alley more so than it feels like an underutilized multi-purpose Swiss army knife. The setting is just not discovered enough, partly due to its story limitations. However, I feel that it suits my more personal, intimate writing style, and lends itself to different kinds of inverse character exploration than what one would get from other scenarios.

the bigger the weapon

elves whoring out on OnlyQueens

Interesting

let me get this out of the way: I've never done any substantial world-building before in my life. frankly, they bore me. it's not to the detriment of the practice, it's to my own fault. i find other aspects of storytelling to be much more interesting.

and to cut the long story short, if you ask me to world-build, you'll find that I'm quite shit at it.

which is why I've come here, grovelling on shit-ridden knees and bruised elbows to ask of the help from you world-building gods.

contrary to my words, I've done some world-building. and to be honest, I've got next to no idea whether if it works or it doesn't.

here's the basic gist of it:

---

During the turn of the second millennium (around 1000BC), women woke up one morning and found themselves able to summon weapons out of their will. Be it clubs, swords, daggers, maces or axes. They just could. Most were limited to a single weapon, but some could wield two. There were even cases of one being able to use different kinds of weapons at the same time.

The weapons themselves were seemingly omnipotent and indestructible. Even a small, inconspicuous blade could withstand the fiercest of flames and the weight of many horses. Not even the wielder herself could mould its shape. If willed so, the wielder can form a weapon in a solid object and replace its space. The object itself would have its occupied space vanish without a trace, with no hint of tamper aside from the obvious cavern left by the weapon. Many scams have happened over female merchants using this trick to their benefit.

Even so, the weapons still obeyed the laws of physics. They couldn't float in mid-air or walk on water unless their original property allowed it to be. There was no condition for the weapon to be manifested, as long as the wielder is conscious and willing. The opposite rang true too. They generally appeared on the wielder’s dominant hand, but trained professionals may be able to conjure them beyond their bodies. They also operated under a set range. These varied and may be extended with practice. If the wielder leaves the weapon’s range, it would disappear as if the wielder willed it to. Other than that, there was no set time limit, temperature, altitude, space; nothing.

The women had no choice in what weapon they were given, regardless of their upbringing. They may not even have seen nor heard of it before. A farmer with no prior experience in blacksmithing or combat training may be bestowed a war hammer she may only ever understand as a helpful wedge for her sliding wagon while a trained paladin serving directly under the king might end up with a small, bronze dagger to boot.

There were even cases where many women find themselves unable to wield their given weapon. These were mostly applied to children’s first experience with their weapons. Fate was an indiscriminate entity, gifting tools of destruction like a blind man tossing feeding seeds at a pack of dogs. Parents are to keep great care of their babies, otherwise, they may have an accident with their first weapon manifestation. It happens at any point, whether it's as early as their first few months in the cradle or as late as their sixth birthday. Either way, a great eye must be kept lest they swallow their garrote or suffocate under their broadsword.

It is worthy of note, however, that the weapons manifested will follow current inventions. As time passes, a manifested dagger would begin to show signs of modernizations, like a more ergonomic grip, or mechanics like folding pivots and, in some cases, appearing as a ballistic knife. Since then, women of age have been required to report on their given weapons to a respective government department. Audits are also conducted on weapons manufacturers around the world to gain a better expectation on what sort of weapon manifestation would appear in the future, and to make sure they create something within strict, civilian-safety guidelines.

---

It should also be noted that this world is set in an urban fantasy, where you can find orcs using iPhones and goblins throwing gang signs on Snapchat and elves whoring out on OnlyQueens. It should ALSO be noted that in this world, the idea of gunpowder is never utilized as a weapon. In short, guns and cannons and by extension, fighter jets and tanks don't exist, though crossbows and other ballistic weapons do. They thought of fireworks and using them in machinery but never once considered the fact that they could be used to kill if utilized in a propulsive method. It's only called gunpowder because, in this setting, a centaur called John Gun discovered it. There is no reason behind this. It's an illogical world-building decision made for irrational and satirical purposes. if you REALLY wanna ask, i just think it's funny subtext.

okay, so here's my main concern: what are the implications if this were to happen? i can draw a few guesses, but i'd rather save myself from the embarrassment as I'm about as educated as a seagull in this subject. best i could come up with is a heavy shift within gender roles, and that's it.

if you want to ask about the theme in which I've built this around, there's none. it's a completely optional piece of lore in the story i made up just so i could set up a femdom-turned-domination-loss smut scenario. however, a little elaboration and depth wouldn't hurt, and my life's motto is why not, so I'm here extended a palm, requesting for assistance in expanding this little tidbit of lore i have for my world.

if you want to come in and have a laugh at my expense, feel free. i'd laugh at myself if I could see this from a third party's perspective. if you genuinely have some suggestion or correction to make, no matter how small it is, i want that shit. please. give it to me. i need everything i can get my shit-ridden hands on.

So here is the idea,

1. Let's model the distribution of how ""good"" a weapon's property is on a bell curve.
2. So now here is the thing,
   1. The ones with ambition and a weapon with a broken property will establish their queendoms. The queendoms would not be able to form dynasties and last long due to how the weapons do not pass down.
   2. So early on, the queendoms will emerge and collapse pretty often.
   3. This would lead to solutions, with either of them being used in different parts of the world.
      1. The queens will try to pump out as many kids as possible to ensure their are more dice to roll for a decent successor.
      2. The public, tired of the chaos would rebel and an hero(ine) will emerge making that place a meritocracy.
      3. Places were a single person does not have enough power and a loose republic-y government will be formed with more chaos within that worth the effort.
      4. A disciple succession would be establish instead of the usual succession by birthright.
3. Due to bell curve, most of the weapons will be average. A few would be utterly shit. And a few would be broken op.
4. Make sure to define your shit, average and good weapons well - Their power will decide how much the world changes.
   1. If they are just minor quirks, well almost nothing changes except for an extra Queen or two being the ruler instead of the King.
   2. If they are essentially broken af - well that would justify lack of gunpowder weapons - but would make individual power a big deal. Aka one with the bigger dick weapon and a decent working brain would become important. Also treating males well might not be a top priority here. Woman with shit ones will be treated as essentially disabled.
   3. If they are neat and useful but not absurd, then there will be decent number of ladies in important posts but also man who have been able to overcome this "disability" due to sheer talent / hardwork / braincells.
5. Some of the Women over the years are the really gifted ones. Aka their fated weapon manifests with such a strong property that they are the chosen ones with legends written about them.
6. An interesting way to use your setting would be to place a lot of importance on research. Weapons become more modern and polish and perhaps better with advancement in research. Depending on how global the effects of inventing a new thing are, this can very well create a vested interest in funding research and maintain secrecy. Aka technological supremacy 101. This would also mean the hierachy or respect would be the ruler/nobility > strong commanders >= royal researchers (who may or may not be toys for their mistress') > general public.
7. You can have certain bloodlines that have a higher chance to produce an offspring with a decent weapon. So they will be an hot commodity.
8. Depending on the property and how dark your world will be, some of those gifted ones might be trapped due to it. For example, a weapon that can grant immortality to the wielder does not stop the wielder from being jailed in a tentacle seedbed if they get caught y'know?

You also definitely want to elaborate or cover how did the weapons manifest suddenly. Perhaps that could be a plot point. Perhaps it could be what your mc is researching.

In this setting I can clearly see an mc who can be "an ordinary male who is a 9000 iq villain known to be able to kidnap any woman no matter how powerful <--- see point 8"
or an mc who is "a researcher who slowly charms his mistress"
or an mc who is "a spy suppose to gather information from a rival for his mistress"
or a good for nothing whose seed somehow ensures that the child would have a decent weapon.

woah, this could be good shit, though i have to admit, with how the system works, half of this wouldn't be effective at all (I'll further elaborate this below). but the initial reaction to such a phenomenon would probably cause shit like this to happen.

I'm not a weapons expert, though, so I have no idea what constitutes a good weapon or a shit weapon.

1. Make sure to define your shit, average and good weapons well - Their power will decide how much the world changes.
   1. If they are just minor quirks, well almost nothing changes except for an extra Queen or two being the ruler instead of the King.

i think there's something i should clarify regarding the aforementioned weapons: they aren't any amazing fantasy weapons with intricate designs or such. no hundred folding blades or glass-edged hundred spine whips. they are mostly renditions of real-life weapons that can be feasibly built by either a blacksmith of any skillset.

AND, as for the research of weapons, this is also probably gonna be moot very soon. you see, the weapon summoning isn't hereditary or influenced by any factors at all. literally, anyone will get a random weapon regardless of standing, race, bloodline, achievement, morality. you might get a fucking Dragon Slayer while King Arthur would get a shiv the size of a butter knife. an inherent risk exists when you make the greatest weapon of all time and some child in your enemy's kingdom finds out that she's bestowed that same weapon with the same properties AND is indestructible.

there is also no way to perceive if an item might be classified as a weapon or not. some child out there might be given a trowel as a weapon and now she has to live with it.

1. You can have certain bloodlines that have a higher chance to produce an offspring with a decent weapon. So they will be an hot commodity.
2. Depending on the property and how dark your world will be, some of those gifted ones might be trapped due to it. For example, a weapon that can grant immortality to the wielder does not stop the wielder from being jailed in a tentacle seedbed if they get caught y'know?

or an mc who is "a spy suppose to gather information from a rival for his mistress"
or a good for nothing whose seed somehow ensures that the child would have a decent weapon.

well, as I've stated from above, these two wouldn't work. no bloodline weaponry, or magical artifact weaponry. most you'd get is a sword whose hilt is bigger than the blade, and that's about it.

oh yeah, I've also got a reason on how the weapons manifested suddenly.

here's an exerpt from the chapter that explained it:

The Problem Store - Chapter 2.5 | The Constant | Scribble Hub

www.scribblehub.com

Spoiler

There were many theories as to how these weapons came to be. Many proposals were given, but the main accepted cause drew parallels with old records. Research had discovered that weapon manifestation occurred in circular waves. These waves were traced back to a county residing in the middle eastern part of the world. After intensive cross-referencing and dating, it was believed that the effect had occurred during a mythical sapphic orgy involving six women of different species belonging to a royal harem. There are various statements regarding the participants of the orgy, but experts have confirmed the presence of at least one human, one beastkin that was most likely a centaur, one mermaid’s corpse, and several gnomes. It is said that after the fornication, a great beam of light emerged from the royal chambers shone its light in one big cross, spreading horizontally across the land. Records have gone on to state that any female touched by its rays would be blessed, along with her descendants, with divine protection in forms of personal weaponry. Beyond that, the various records detailing the event were considered inaccurate and impossible to pin down as several iterations of the same event relayed different details, with frequent contradictions among one another. There were no motivations, inciting incidents, or any more justification for the event whatsoever. It just happened, and such was the accepted theory for now.

at this point, the weapon manifesting phenomenon had become part of the norm. history had run its course, and the manifestation is just here to stay. any and all reaction to its effect had been subsided long since. the story's entered the modern age and at this point, everyone's used to it.

as for the MC, shiiiiiit, I might have to disappoint you on this front.

basically, the MC has no big McGuffin to chase or someone to save. since the series this world takes place in is a smut slice-of-life, the most he'll go through is some character arc/development as he fucks his way through life. if there's any grace, the MC does get put into some radical situations that confront the female-weapon-manifestation phenomenon and gets forced to do something about that. he doesn't simply go about life passively, he DOES do shit instead of sitting around like an emotional stud horse.

if i have to be honest, my story would also work EVEN without this history behind it. i just thought it'll be fun if i expand all this giant lore and backstory all for it to be put into a smut series where the MC has a threesome sandwich is a reindeer beastkin and a cuckqueen dwarf.

 

[Ddraig]

I'm not a weapons expert, though, so I have no idea what constitutes a good weapon or a shit weapon.

I meant as in the property of the weapon. I interpreted the property as the supernatural component of the weapon. Like say from shit to broken,

1. Ability to make farting noises
2. Ability to ignore air resistance
3. Ability to cover itself in flames
4. Ability to mind control others
5. Ability to block all attacks
6. Ability to attack from fucking space or something
7. Ability to freeze time

i think there's something i should clarify regarding the aforementioned weapons: they aren't any amazing fantasy weapons with intricate designs or such. no hundred folding blades or glass-edged hundred spine whips. they are mostly renditions of real-life weapons that can be feasibly built by either a blacksmith of any skillset.

Hm fair enough, but I was going off the below line.

Even so, the weapons still obeyed the laws of physics. They couldn't float in mid-air or walk on water unless their original property allowed it to be.

So like person A gets a sword that can float in mid air. Person B gets sandals that can walk on water. Both are reasonable weapons that any random crafter can make yet what makes them "special" is the original property associated with it.

If that is not what you meant, then the effects wouldnt be too wild. An extra few queen rulers in the course of history, A bit less of patriachy, some cultures might have woman that are not ready to take shit from anyone, some obvious scams you mentioned and a bit of increase in woman assassins/spies etc.

at this point, the weapon manifesting phenomenon had become part of the norm. history had run its course, and the manifestation is just here to stay. any and all reaction to its effect had been subsided long since. the story's entered the modern age and at this point, everyone's used to it.

as for the MC, shiiiiiit, I might have to disappoint you on this front.

basically, the MC has no big McGuffin to chase or someone to save. since the series this world takes place in is a smut slice-of-life, the most he'll go through is some character arc/development as he fucks his way through life. if there's any grace, the MC does get put into some radical situations that confront the female-weapon-manifestation phenomenon and gets forced to do something about that. he doesn't simply go about life passively, he DOES do shit instead of sitting around like an emotional stud horse.

I think modern age sol would be a nice setting for this with this phenomenon being accepted as the norm ages ago. Still though, you might wanna make the weapon more than a gimmick - as without the original property thingy I mentioned above, well it sort of is just an extra knife or taser in every girl's purse. The best I can think of for this on the spot would be special martial arts meant to take advantage of the weapon being able to summoned and de-summoned at will. Aka the strength difference still remains but girls now a massive flexibility advantage.

As for the mc, that's fine with me, I was assuming you havent started writing the series yet. Well as long as you can execute on what you are saying in the last para - aka he is more that a living dildo

if i have to be honest, my story would also work EVEN without this history behind it. i just thought it'll be fun if i expand all this giant lore and backstory all for it to be put into a smut series where the MC has a threesome sandwich is a reindeer beastkin and a cuckqueen dwarf.

Tbh having great world building is in a way what might make your story stand out amongst other smuts. Good writing is already rare in smuts, but world building is even rarer. And atleast I know that I would appreciate smuts more if they was more to it. On the contrary, with the story being sol going full infodump would be a terrible idea.

AND, as for the research of weapons, this is also probably gonna be moot very soon. you see, the weapon summoning isn't hereditary or influenced by any factors at all. literally, anyone will get a random weapon regardless of standing, race, bloodline, achievement, morality. you might get a fucking Dragon Slayer while King Arthur would get a shiv the size of a butter knife. an inherent risk exists when you make the greatest weapon of all time and some child in your enemy's kingdom finds out that she's bestowed that same weapon with the same properties AND is indestructible.

That's why you can have crowns passing down to disciples. Basically X established her rule with her massive sword. As X's children are not guaranteed to get an actual good weapon, X will instead train/adopt a disciple Y which she selected from her subjects on the basis that Y has a working brain and a weapon summon that can rival X's weapon. This idea applies for the other governments I mentioned too.

Of course it being so weapon dependent would only be the case if the weapons had original property that made it awesome.

For the tech supremacy part, well two things -

1. The weapon evolves based on knowledge known by anyone in the world - This one doesnt help the tech supremacy case at all.
2. The weapon evolves based on knowledge known by you - In this one though, the weapon evolving/modernization would give you an edge over your enemies. Perhaps the original property would become better. This means you need to get loyal people to research for you, not let the knowledge leak to your enemy and have spies trying to acquire knowledge from enemies.
   1. For example, if A figured out how airplanes work, this puts A at an advantage over others as the knowledge of airplane is restricted to A. This knowledge might perhaps result in A's greatsword now able to fly in air which others wouldnt be able to.
   2. Another example, if A figured out what graphene is, this puts A at an advantage over others by having her greatsword modernizing to be made of graphene now, thus easily winning over the steel plebs.

There is also this odd thought I had, assaulting a girl might be pretty lethal in that world due to knife that can manifest anywhere. So like the girls summons the knife at the assualter's crotch. This would make assault against women in general less of a thing. Maybe idk.

 

[Zirrboy]

I feel bad now because now you gotta explain to this friend that this lore is nothing more than an excuse to have a femdom subtext in a smut series.

Their own story actually shares quite a few fetish themes with this one and they get chapter edits in exchange, so not to worry.
