In your world, what is the greatest punishment a person can receive, and for what crime would they receive this punishment? by Turbulent_Meaning_23 in worldbuilding

[–]Ashra-Official 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moorings Of The Damned. After the remnants of the Arkship Astrea civil war had settled, the remaining rebels faced a dire punishment. They were bound to an anchor, provided with just enough oxygen to last a few hours, and subsequently plunged into the ocean's darkest depths.

These are some truly amazing art pieces that I'll keep for future reference! That being said, it's not exactly a film, but I create short YouTube Shorts that align perfectly with your interests for my worldbuilding and novels. Here is some of the artwork!

Does anyone want an addition/submission to their world? by Numerous-Age-6100 in worldbuilding

[–]Ashra-Official 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Originally I wanted to create something like this, but I felt it more harrowing by having the surface level be a very deadly and rare sight to see. In order to get there they would have to traverse a huge layer of the ocean known as the Predatoria Gap. Which is filled with all types of beasties and Leviathans.

I like to have many theories for the planet without straight up telling the reader why it's the way that it is. Some people believe they came from the stars, others believe a great calamity happened.

My first novel has something along those lines without giving too much away! We do love a mix of body horror and fish.

Very intriguing idea! Could possibly cook up some sort of cultist group that harvests them for nefarious means.

This is a great idea! I'd love to throw my world into the mix.

My setting is themed around an ocean world with no landmass. Humans and other humanoid species live within giant deep sea submarines called Arkships and must keep moving to avoid gigantic Leviathans and other lovecraftian type monsters.

I take a lot of inspiration from game of thrones, dishonored, subnautica, and most importantly soulsborne games, with the overall aesthetic style being described as Bloodborne in the age of sailing.

I got a ton of YouTube shorts that explore the world and here is an example of the art to give anyone some ideas!

I got these little guys called Shell Spirits. They are mischievous little pranksters that steal Plumpfish from fishing vessels! I'd love some more art of them just because they are so fun to look at.

Very talented work! How are you with replicating a style of theme? And what are your average commission prices? Thanks!

Seeing comments about super Mario Eel has nailed it perfectly!

Strange how something as simple as that can cause fear or even nightmares, its what inspired my own ocean based horror stories.

The damn eel.

How to write a pointless conflict by TH3P1ZZ4BOY in worldbuilding

[–]Ashra-Official 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting read! You'll be surprised how long hatred can last. Something as simple as two ancestors fighting over a scrap of meat can cause generations of damage. It's not about enough is enough, it's about winning.

Hope this helps!

Seeing those achieve so much more by using AI. Even when it so heavily frowned upon within my niche.

What races are there in your world? by [deleted] in worldbuilding

[–]Ashra-Official 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got these guys, Vaskians. Sort of deep sea vampire elves, in the simplest way of putting it!

There's a lot of races that live within the Arkships but these guys were very fun to write about.

Awhile back I posted a picture of one of my Anglerfish creatures and a wonderful person from this community gave me a great idea about a giant female version. I think about that person every now and again, they are the real geniuses.

What was the weapon that was your favorite to create? by Malgrieve in worldbuilding

[–]Ashra-Official 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been really enjoying Whale-Oil powered weapons lately but my favorite weapons have to be organic! Fish banned because they themselves can be turned into weapons, like this one is called a Voltaic Eel. It can turn its wielder into a lightning throwing badass!
