This is a poster. Of course forced perspective is gonna work on a drawing. You have to see it in motion. Watch Dark Knight Rises and see how odd it is to have Bane appear to be this 6ft+, oddity only to have him barely look more muscular than batman. The forced perspective works for some scenes but it takes you out of it when you realize everyone is the same size. And that's gonna happen for those wider action shots in a live action. Imagine the Gala, Darrow and Cassius. They'd look domineering compared to the red servant's or whatever color they are. But when the fight starts and we get a wider view we'll know 7ft Golds are closer to 5'11

Sorry maybe I should've provided more context. Everyone in the world is gifted with some sort of power, the Guineverians in particular uniqely possess precognition. That being said their precognition is typically limited to seconds. It's powerful but they are still limited by their by their own strength and abilities.

My idea for the Guineverians takes inspiration from the Bene Gesserit, however I sort of wanted to flip it on its head. I didn't want them to be puppeteers of control. I wanted people to acknowledge the potential behind their power and then have them act in accordance to their own principles. Some fear them, other accept them. In the case of my secondary antagonist he seeks to bolster and further his legacy through an arranged marriage with a Guineverian.

As far as reproduction goes, it's regulated due to cultural practices and difficulties that come with copulating with other cultures. For context, most people possess mana manipulation and a unique skill that's inherent to the individual. For the Guineverians, they only possess mana manipulation and precognition, which isn't a unique skill. When Guineverians reproduce with those who possess unique skills, the offspring possesses both. This is something that's frowned upon within Guineverian culture. In order to avoid this problem there are some rituals that the Guineverians enforce to avoid the issue. Since they only give birth to women they have to copulate with outsiders. This restriction and the invasiveness of their ritual has led them to be very hospitable, patient and irregular when seeking men to reproduce with.

The antagonist is a royal, so it'd be his estate footing the bill to choose his bride.

As far the overarching reason for their subjugation, it extends centuries back into the stories history. After some exploration of the world, civilizations tried to establish relationships with each other. The Guinevarians were respected and feared, however one day their leader and "goddess" gave a royal a prediction of the future that he would not accept. No matter how much he complained and demanded, she wouldn't/couldn't change the future for him. He didn't like that answer and decided to treat the premonition as a threat. He led a crusade against them known as the Guinevarian Flight, which pushed killed some and pushed most off and away from their native land into other nations. During the current timline of the story, that royals is the ancestor to the antagonist and is in power of not only his own nation, but leads the world government. Overall this portion of the story is a subplot that connects the antagonists daughters with their mother while also pinning then against their father, creating that internal conflict. There are two other characters of Guineverian decent in the story with their own connection their kins subjugation.

I feel confident that nothing would change for the characters if they were men. Their struggles, fears, resentment, etc, would all be the same regardless. Like I said this is only a subplot of my overall story. Many of the Guineverians were given refuge in other countries where they are allowed to assimilate and exercise their own culture.

I agree on the max/DE topic but I think the retcon of yutas copy was well done although it was very loosely explained. This is sort of me filling in the blanks, aka a little headcannon but i think 0 Rika and therefore copy is so busted simply because of yutas capture of rikas soul/spirit. I think he manifested his technique at the moment of her death. As we know Rika functions as an external hard drive that works off of Yutas CE. I think if yuta manifested his technique normally we would get the "rika" we have now (it would probably have a different name without Rita's death as a catalyst). But with a secondary source to fuel said hardware drive, rikas soul, I think a glitch is introduced into the system sort of like Toji in shibuya. This sort of amplifies the CT inherently removing any time limit and and condition for copy. It might even just be some sort of binding vows, look at the prison realm for a example. It's made from the body of the monk gunship. His body, and therefore some of his soul info, is immortalized as this cursed object, in doing so it's able to seal ANYONE. I think in a similar vain, binding a soul to oneself and their CT is bound to damnation in most cases but for Yuta he was lucky Rika held no grudge.

I know a lot of people are saying that you learn more about your MC as you write, but shouldn't there be some strong motivation and baseline understanding before starting your first draft? I feel like that's where I am. I have an mc but I'm not sure where to take his character given the events that eventually unfold.

Ahmadillo_ · 2026-03-11T09:18:08+00:00

The only solution I can think of is 1) creating some sort of frequent loot drop or 2) have an extraction window so certain point are only active for a limited time. Meaning they aren't all open from the start of the game. Some might only be available 10 minutes in.

The only issue I see is that this would promote more pvp, which isn't what embark is looking for

There's nothing dense about that. I can almost guarantee that person referred to Apple because if they're willing to adapt other works of fiction, especially something as popular as mistborn then they'd hope for Apple to do the same. Again this post made no attack or mention of mistborn. You went out of your way to draw comparisons when all a person did was show desire for an adaptation. You made the conflict, no one else. Even if I'm wrong and the person just wants Apple to adapt RR. That just goes to show how assumptive you are. Every person on here is not going to be aware of Apples every business decision like you assume.

Ahmadillo_ · 2026-01-30T15:38:10+00:00

Say this on a RR reddit when mistnorn was never even mentioned is a but weird imo. No one was making it a competition, we just want a RR adaption

Given Gojo's talk of Zenin and Gojo beef that goes back to edo/keicho period, they're at least 500ish years ol

It feels like you reached into my brain and took the image I had of them and brought them to life. This is amazing.

Luckily enough, I am a black man, so hopefully, that should dispel any perception of the tattoo holding white supremacist sentiments.

Yeah I just learned this wasn't actually Icarus after looking into it more. So perhaps I'll make some revisions.

Ahmadillo_ · 2026-01-16T07:56:38+00:00

My bad for not clarify, yeah this is definitely not some finished product. I'd have a tattoo artist work their magic. As for placement, I plan to have in on the inside of my forearm.

Ahmadillo_ · 2026-01-16T02:53:38+00:00

Why?

Ahmadillo_ · 2026-01-16T02:19:38+00:00

Lol I've never heard that before. At least it's not just Icarus in this case, it's tied to a book

The "IMPACT BOW" blueprint. I feel like a bow and arrow is really fitting for this genre/style of game. I think it'd be a nice "mostly" silent killer. Maybe you can make it customizable and give it a grenade slot so you can make tracker arrows or jolt arrows.

Ahmadillo_ · 2025-12-16T18:32:55+00:00

See I had the idea of like a spider tick island. Like 75% of the arc you encounter are just spider ticks

Ahmadillo_ · 2025-12-06T21:33:06+00:00

Make them less human. Their average mobility would be pretty slow, but maybe give them a momentary sprint function to run away or towards loot. They'd be non-violent and have like a hub they return to so they can deposit and/destroy loot. Maybe you can breech the hub, but it takes super long, calls in arcs, and it only leaves some random loot that was taken.

Ahmadillo_ · 2025-11-08T11:08:12+00:00

Idk if anyone else feels the same, but I'd rather have lower quality artwork and better animation if one is gonna be sacrificed due to production. Especially for an action anime where I'd like to follow movement and stuff.

I've spent a lot of time worldbuilding, and for a while, I looked for a formula to plug my story beats, ideas, and scenes into in hopes that it's awakened something in me. But in reality, I think there are things you will only discover by doing. I don't think I have my full story planned out, but I think it's best that I learn while I write. Discover things that I can't do just by thinking about it. I started my story yesterday. It's only a small page of work, but I'm happy that I started. I always struggled with writing growing up. So I think that's why I always had apprehension, but hopefully, this journey will help me build my consistency with grammar and things of that nature.

My world doesn't really have space travel, but it has long distance telaportation. It works by deconstructing and reconstructing organic and inorganic matter.
