Ultramen: Infinite Future

Welp.



...Might try and draw up my own Ultra but we'll see how that turns out. ^^;

Any UK RPers here?

Well I'm half-Glaswegian and half-whatever they call people from Edinburgh if it means anything. :D

...Ah, but in seriousness, yeah, it gets a bit annoying whenever people do that whole "oh wow, I'm [some fraction] [your nationality]!" thing and think that this isn't a bit patronizing, really. But yeah.

Chrono Trigger: Fates Intertwined (Player Driven CT RP) STILL ACCEPTING!

Ooh... Interest, depending on how this pans out I guess.

World Building Project

Well, think about it: the dwarfs always seem to greatly value their workers and craftsmen; their smiths, miners and (naturally) brewers are always considered very important to them. So I figured with a little nudging, making them left wing and pro-working class (amongst other things) might work pretty well.

Probably closer to the likes of Marx and Lenin than, say, Stalin, but I dunno. Hmmm. Just a random suggestion, like I said.

World Building Project

@BillsomethingEh, the idea we came up with was basically "Roman elves" and we figured that going by the generic fantasy races, such a thing probably fits high elves better.

And yeah, that stuff would probably work really well with wood elves. I've seen wood elves who embrace the fair folk side of things more than you usually see done pretty well before, so yeah.

Although really I'm just throwing out vague concepts right now. We're pretty early on in development, after all, and the way I see it it's better to just have a single basic concept for things that we can work more on later than develop something pretty in-depth at the moment and then find out it might not fit well with the rest of the stuff. But again, that's the way I see it, and I'm not infallible or anything. XD

Also, speaking of vague concepts, for some reason whilst I was in the shower the idea of soviet dwarfs popped into my head. Dunno if that sparks any inspiration for anyone else but I'm going to keep it in mind for the time being.

@RomanAriaMaybe it's the username that tipped me off, but somehow I knew you at least would approve of this idea. XD That would be rather helpful though, since unfortunately my High Gothic is pretty rusty.

But I dunno, I just kind of felt that if you were to compare high elves to any historical civilization, it would probably end up being the Romans. That and I think the idea's pretty nifty so yeah.

World Building Project

So me and Vita were talking, and it started out as her joking about something but we kind of came up with the idea of basing the high elves on the Roman empire. Still need to work stuff out about it so will probably bring this up again later, but just an idea I guess. XD

Also this means we can make them super pretentious as high elves should be by naming all their stuff in Latin. XD

World Building Project

...I dunno, I don't really like that idea for some reason. And it seems kind of random to mix French and Zulu in one term but um hmmm. Besides, we're still trying to come up with how magically/technologically inclined the setting is, and have barely touched on the actual races yet (the stuff with elves was an accidental tangent which I apologize for, really ^^;) so that's getting a bit ahead of ourselves there really.

As for the dwarfs, there's an easier explanation for why they'd be musically inclined. Since they're so into rock and metal. >.> <.<

World Building Project

And giant magical suits of armour the size of houses. Don't forget those. :D

World Building Project

Eh, for a variety of reasons not exactly expecting the novel idea to go anywhere (not least because as this is a collaborative work, disagreements are bound to pop up) so yeah.

Hmm, well if it's high fantasy technology shouldn't be too far... if there's anything more advanced it should be in smaller amounts. Though we should totally do airships.

Airships are cool.

As for magic, I'd suggest fairly high levels of it? Not everyone can do it but there's enough to make, like, mage colleges and stuff.

@VitaVitaAR

Also this basically. High magic is more fun to work with than low magic, and I can't say no to airships. XD

Also yeah, there should be gods, but not ones based on ourselves. For one thing, any god based on me would be so lazy she'd never really do anything. XD
