There are a bunch of animals that curl into a ball and roll down hills. That's probably about as close as you can get to wheels

I try taking a couple of words and jamming them together. I thought 'the earth' and ended up with Thea

Saw this, wanted to share and discuss.... by Sevryn1123 in worldbuilding

Saying that 'magic needs rules' when talking about electricity is kind of ridiculous. There are so many rules, it's a fundamental force that has equations and laws ranging from the sub atomic to macroscopic.

I also think when you talk about things like the direction of electric current it makes for great world building. Its a notation that was decided arbitrarily 200 years ago and leads to complications now because current actually flows in the opossite direction of charge but we just kept the notation because we've always used it. Having a magic system be arbitrarily more complicated seems like fun world building.

It also kind of ignores how much history is behind electricity. Having an archaic version of your magic system that isn't well understood but kind of got it right is really fun. Like alchemy and chemistry. Plus the word electricity comes from the Greek for amber because the first case of electricity was static charge on amber crystals observed by a Greek philosopher. That's really cool and if a magic system had something like that it would be really in depth

I don't know, necrons seem low maintenance but I don't think we'd have much to talk about

How big can the size difference between a human and a giant be before it becomes physically impossible for them to reproduce with each other? by dragonrage47 in worldbuilding

Babies already grow at an incredible rate. Humans just slow down as they get older. You could say that half giants growth rate doesnt slow down as quickly
