It turns out that the translation from German for heathfolk is, well, Heidevolk which is literally just heathfolk in my own common tongue, and the name of a band I listen to. Made me realize how weird it must be for Germans that I'm using their language to mimick the language of a forest-y people.

Oh, also, if you're looking for like a custom font to spruce up your race's language a bit, or to give them some personality, there's a few available on 1001fonts. Here's some examples:

@Crusader LordYou know what I'm missing? Carnivorous plant people. No true fantasy is complete without some sort of Floran cannibals that can raid the lands. But don't worry, if nobody makes them, papa GM will be more than happy to harass you all with them

Hehe, but anything works. Might be nice to spice up the easter continent as well, have some cultural differences to begin with :D

There are a lot of turn based strategy games out there, but none of them are as good as Wargroove. Why? It is the only game that has man eating flowers that are both sexy and scary at the same time, and reproduce by rubbing their butts together. Name one better game, I'm waiting

The Starbound version is just a slightly worse version of them then.

I only ever played Florans in Starbound. I have a deep love for these weird aliens, because no other race is quite as good for looking at a random plant on an alien world and telling me if I can get high on it or not.

We're probably going to need colors that are more clear to differentiate things like rainforest from forest better. I had a hell of a time doing it. Had to whip open an image editor and check the exact values.

@6slyboy6 Sorry, for some reason my browser wasn't working even though there was internet connection. And I spent so long looking for pictures for the race I want that it slowed my responsiveness here.

This is the map position I'd like:

@rush99999 Ngl, I'm having a hard time imagining your race in a physical sense, but they are certainly very creative. Though personally I hardly understand the need or reasoning behind their insta-shed ability, the rest is quite interesting. Though maybe a bit on the far end of culture, this sort of an eldest person leads is quite cool and found commonly in animals so I wom't sin it X3

@Ascendant Honestly, the "rainforests" we have here are hardly that. These aren't tropical rainforests, though they share somr resemblance in the amount of rain they receive and therefore trees that grow there. Think Australia or Japanese jungles. For some reason my LCD screen does a much better job of showing the differences than my LED screen. So honestly, no clue

@Tal Island, yay! I can say right now that it's flat and has the aforementioned "rainforest" on it. I won't be able to make a map for you for about another day or so sadly :c

But feel free to post the sheet here ^^

I wasn't able to find a picture I liked, so I just pulled something out of my head and put it in words to the best of my abilities. Needless to say, I'm not very good at doing that.

As for the insta-shed ability, that was my attempt at answering the question of how the Stronnarus managed to discover fire despite their starting biome not being all that helpful in that regard.

why is everyone "population: 12"? is 12 some number to mean around 10 million? or is there really just 12 of them?

That's the number we were given by the GM, and I think it literally means 'just 12' for the sake of maintaining simplicity in the RP.

@6slyboy6 ...Any thoughts on what kind of race might be needed otherwise? Don't want to spoil your fun with carnivorous plant peoples~ :3

Looking at the map, seems like the channel will be the cradle of civilization. Considering how many races are starting there.

@MonkeyBusiness slyboy mentioned that the western continent was far more fertile, so the channel also seems to imply that whoever gets access to boats that can transport goods first will have a nice time trading grain or other foods, which historically was sort of the reason that western Europe advanced rapidly once we started buying Polish grain, which was somehow cheaper than farming it ourselves, freeing up time to learn other trades. I think the channel will be very important .

@Odin That’s all fine and dandy for yourselves. My race is going to grow up without a lot of outside influence since I am all the way on the over side of the eastern continent. Are we allowed to share outside the game what kind of terrain we got on the map?
