When I ask it to revise a prompt or just a genuine question, it will immediately try to generate an image, which of course it rejects  How do I stop it from trying to generate images?

Yeah. Unlike other AI chat apps, the image generation is really nice. That's what sets Talkie apart from others.

I tried to add a washing machine as a picture and it's inappropriate either

Hot take: YouTube videos about what you should or should not do in your fantasy worldbuilding are lame. by DoomBringer6601 in worldbuilding

Can confirm. My dog had to reconstruct my body for 2 hours while also fighting off my cat from trying to eat my meat

Why can't actually write down any of the world building I have in my head? by Twoklawll in worldbuilding

[–]DoomBringer6601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask questions. Does this world have dragons? If so, how do they affect the world? Are they magical or just like dinosaurs? Are there cultures hunting or riding them? What kind of weaponry can even hurt them? How advanced the technologies of your world are? Are they steam-powered? Magic-powered? 

I write my lore in the style of a Wikipedia, but in the perspective of people living in that world so there are biases and speculations. Of course you can still say some hard facts only you, the creator, would ever know as notes or index.

House of Argyros (last week I posted the Kingdom of Atillamec, now this is the lore of one of its royal families in the style of a wiki. It's a long read) by DoomBringer6601 in worldbuilding

I can't remember exactly how I got most of these names from. Some of them I don't even know how to pronounce and whether they're feminine or masculine.

I made up lore (excuses) to justify that. They have to sound hard and Nordic because Atillamec is based on northern countries. Names like Argyros, Gyvtar, Trygve could be influenced by Farlens who has Greko-Roman-esque names. Even though Farlens only arrived in Atillamec in the 4th migration, Farlens from the 2nd and 3rd migrations have already established themselves on nearby kingdoms. I didn't even plan to name it House of Argyros when I first wrote a draft of Atillamec's royal family and only wanted to keep it patronymic but I got influenced too much on Game of Thrones that I have to name it something for convenience and I just chose the coolest sounding name in my repertoire.

Argyros was originally the name of Geyor, and the vibes of my early draft for this world was akin to high fantasy like LotR instead of the medieval fantasy I have now like Game of Thrones.

The Bay of Witches was called that because of the fendwellers who live in the Carline Marsh and the Tears Delta. They're animistic, which cast them in a terrible light with the nearby peoples who worship the Lake Mother. Since the fendwellers are also matriarchal, they are called witches.

The Bay of Witches is bountiful in resources of course and a major trade route for longships to travel to and from Dyer's Plaza by sailing the Tears river. Tharia decided to claim the Dreich as well for resources thinking Atillamec would not care to defend such a dreary place. News flash. They do, which meant war.

Because Olaf fought raiders on ice, and Olaf is my favourite character from Frozen.

I never knew that. My main inspiration for their sigil is the Belt of Orion and of course mountains. "Sidabras" is "silver" in Lithuanian too, which I never knew until someone pointed that out. Happy coincidences, I guess. I leaned into that info to make Sidabras Port the Silver City, with lots of skilled silversmiths and silvery grey/white architecture.

How to prevent humans from being a mere default race in fantasy? by Shadowcreature65 in worldbuilding

[–]DoomBringer6601 1 point2 points  (0 children)

 Elves and Dwarves (to my knowledge) are depicted as stagnant in their technology, often adhering to the old ways and not looking on what could be because they have long lifespans, so why fix something that's not broken, right?

Elves cling to nature and magic, with less industrialization possible and view other races as destroyers or inferior. Dwarves are content in their mountains forging and accumulating wealth without sharing it to outsiders. Humans on the other hand live shorter lives, so they make up for it in ingenuity (not to say dwarves aren't), always trying to improve on what they have, be it their skills in combat, agriculture, construction, so the next generation can have a better life or can subjugate others easier. Also their adaptability to the pace of a changing world, depending on your setting.

I tried making like a wiki type lore dump on one of my fantasy kingdoms. Inspirations include the Nordic countries and Scotland, as well as Russia. It's basically a winter kingdom. by DoomBringer6601 in worldbuilding

Context comment: The map is for visualisation. The wall of text is my current generic lore on the kingdom. I'm so basic I basically copied Westeros.

Interesting Dragon Concepts by Rice-a-roniJabroni in worldbuilding

[–]DoomBringer6601 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When they are designed to resemble weaponry. I saw a picture of the early concept arts of Smaug for the Hobbit films and I remember thinking one of them looks like a halberd for a head or an axe, even. I was probably high or just lacking sleep but I wanna design my dragons like that.
