I think everyone here knows that the one, true ship is Corty x Avakrael.

Don't care. If the story is good it doesn't matter. If they start every conversation with someone new with 'By the way, I don't have genitals,' or 'I have male and female sex organs' then you failed the first condition and I'm dropping it. It should be an aspect of their character, not the...

Depends on when in the story. At the start- She would fail. Badly. She has never seen a skateboard or anything similar, and the concept of balancing well on a flat, straight surface would be alien enough, she would view Tony Hawk as an emissary of the gods. By the end.... she still will have...

Swearing is like seasoning. Use sparingly, and not in all dishes.

Local place does Mac and Cheese with BBQ pulled pork.

'How to Lose Friends and Alienate People' By Avakrael. Well, they do say write what you know....

Did you wake up, eat a bag of fortune cookies, and then feed the fortunes into chatgpt?

I'm getting serious 'I'm 14 and this is deep' vibes from this one.....

All cultural dependant, and interpretation dependant. I read a book once that describe Thor as a God of common sense, which is interesting as he is normally portrayed as hot headed and thick as two boards. But the example they gave was this - put Loki or Odin in a maze and they will concoct a...

Hmm....yeah....No. I would count myself lucky to get rid of a liar like that. A spineless liar to have done it 'because family'. I would celebrate by changing the locks so they can't crawl back in.

Shouldn't the thread title be 'A Quack Survey'?

Yeah.... I need to be more like that. I keep fighting the grand delusion that I'm Tolkien and anyone but me cares about the elaborate history of the world.

No, but the definitely took some inspiration from some of the darker myths.

That's the way I'm going. The creation story I have now is accurate- So it's not something the gods actually want getting out because it undermines the image they have cultivated. They don't want it shared that they are not as powerful, wise and invincible as they pretend to be. If I include...

For those of you who have done your own fantasy worlds for your stories, how involved and elaborate is your mythos? Do you have a creation myth for how your world and races developed? I decided to create one for the story I am starting to outline and flesh out. I think it helps me set the tone...

What I found interesting with those genres was how horrible even the 'good' martial sects were as a whole. Until I realized that they're all just gangs. The 'good' sects just have better publicity.

Hell yes. The library in town is right next to a park, so they have signboard set up every 20 or so feet on both sides of the walkway where local writers will have their illustrated childrens books displayed one page per signboard, so you can read it as you walk. In general, I will read most...

Thank you for these. Got any on developing solid secondary characters?

The only choice left is for you to write the epic tale of the NEET isekai'd into a fantasy world as a sentient dual waffle iron/pizzelli maker.
