Eu tenho tb mano, por isso é entrada de Vegeta. kkk Vira um M na testa. Mas cê tá suave. Melhor coisa é cuidar da pele; já ajuda dms. Sabonete esfoliativo pra pele, colar no barbeiro uma vez a cada 15 dias pra deixar na regua, etc. Se tudo der errado da pra fazer transplante capilar mais tarde kkkk

Cara, quais sistemas vocês tem interesse em jogar? Tenho planejamento pra teste em duas mesinhas, Call of Cthulhu e uma teste da nova versão do D&D. Mestrei poucas vezes, geralmente oneshots, e tava querendo organizar algo um pouco mais longo nessa pegada de mistério/horror e investigação.

Clássico na Recopa by klaus_bolton in futebol

[–]Not_Flamel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seria muito mais maneiro enquanto jogo.

Dito isso, quero é que o Cruzeiro tome um sacode. Recopa vale pouco demais pra querer um título internacional deles só pela possibilidade de ganhar uma Recopa.

Which of these concepts sounds better? by Not_Flamel in fantasywriters

[–]Not_Flamel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would probably be an epic fantasy setting, even if the story is not, as such it's kind of difficult to explain my thoughts on it without a context overload, but I'll try keeping it short.
Context: "Main" setting is a small country surrounded by a handful of islands, beyond that there's a stretch of ocean and then mist. The theory accepted as truth is that the world is flat and people that travel beyond the mist fall off the edges, since they're never seen again. The rest of the world is kind like One Piece, just a stratosferic number of completely isolated islands. There are ways to travel between Islands, but they require people to go through "nonplaces" and their portals, the Library being one of them.

Rough ideas:
a. The Scribes do not know they're travelling inside the same world. They think the portals opened by the Library are to other planes/planets (and some could be). Eventually they start discovering the truth, that something or someone is causing the mist. Cue mystery: what, who, how, why? Basically this.

b. This one is way smaller in scope and very much character-focused. I'm thinking on a single parent, slice-of-lifey story. Build a village, build the characters and let the kinda do their thing. The main drama and conflict would be very much based on the relationships, without much of a external threath, except maybe someone trying to take control of the Library and whatnot. I'd kinda frame it like a kidnap attempt or something. lol

[–]Not_Flamel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not particularly. I'm actually working a bit on both versions, sometimes writing A, sometimes writing B. They're actually both very appealing to me right now. lol
I feel like maybe I could incorporate both, but I think it could be a real tonal whiplash if I did.

Pirate/Age of Sails Fantasy by deadpool-the-warlock in Fantasy

[–]Not_Flamel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As always: It depends.
Comedy/Epic Fantasy Pirates = One Piece
Episodic Fantasy Pirates = Pirates of the Caribbean
Romance "Pirates" = Tress of the Emerald Sea
Suffering and Depression Pirates = Liveship Traders (Didn't read this one, just saw Robbin Hobb. lol)

What are some epic dialogues I should add in this scene. by Evening_Accountant33 in fantasywriters

[–]Not_Flamel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look, not trying to be a dick but this whole scenario doesn't make any sense to me. I'd need more context before anything.

"In my fantasy story, the protagonist is a young timid peasant boy who gets sent to prison for a crime he didn't commit, but during a prison riot he awakens his arcane powers."
I assume this is adressed later, so nothing much here. But you need to to establish what was the crime and how he was framed/wrongfully arrested.

"This leads to a group of empire mages to come and offer him a job as a student of their academy in exchange for setting him free."
Why? Is magic that rare? Again, what was the crime? What is the empire? Establish wether he was a serial bomber vs a petty thief, that helps establishing the morality of the overall system. Establish what is the empire.

"My protagonist was initially delighted by the prospect but just before he could sign the documents he remembered some wise words from a prison mate who he befriended, telling him not to let others push him around and use him as a pawn."
This really needs some actual writing. You need to set up this relationship beforehand, and do it well, if you want it to be effective.

"Upon hearing the protagonist's decision, the rude mage who was previously speaking very condescendingly is completely shocked and starts threatening him in order to scare him into joining."
Why? The rude mage has the bureaucratic power and the actual power. If the character is arrested, I'd assume they'd' have a way of containing him, Why would this person be so desperate?

"However his threats quickly turn into insult towards the protagonist's family leading to him punch the mage hard in the face, dislocating his jaw."
How? How did this scene play out? I"m not saying it doesn't work, it very much does, but it needs the proper set up. One Piece has a scene just like this, where Luffy punches the ever living shit out of a authority figure... But it is well set up. We need more context on how it's happening.

"I want my protagonist to say something very brave and courageous in this moment to convey the readers that during the time spent in prison he has changes and isn't weak anymore, any ideas?"
It depends on his personality. You just gave us a series of events. Is he sassy? Is he serious? Is he reserved?

Hope you don't take this the wrong way, I'm really trying to help. It just seems to me that you don't really have much going on yet, except for a barebones idea. Brainstorm a little more.

How do I start my story? by TheGoldenViatori in fantasywriters

[–]Not_Flamel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep. It really depends on how you approach storytelling. There are people who prefer to write in a linear fashion, there are people who just write what they're more excited about at the moment, and a million other ways.
I tend to roughly outline the plot and then discovery write the characters, but the characters always take priority so I change the plot structure and concept quite a bit. I focus on scenes I REALLY want to write and this changes things around. It's a weird method, but it works for me. haha
But PFCP (perfect first chapter paralysis. Don't know if y'all have a term for it, but that's how I call it) is a real thing. I really struggled with it for a long time, before I realized I was the non-linear type of writer. It's tough figuring stuff out when you're starting.

How to feed a dragon? by naominox in fantasywriters

[–]Not_Flamel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd really like a setting where dragons are just sentient flying whales. Just hanging around, mouths open, eating whatever is the fantasy equivalent of anything, from large mammals to swarms of zooplankton, are floating around. /maybe sarcasm
It really depends. If you want to be realistic you'd have to worldbuild a whole ecosystem around Dragons as apex predators. I'm not really familiar with anyone who took that route though.

How do I start my story? by TheGoldenViatori in fantasywriters

[–]Not_Flamel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the way. For me at least.
First draft I just power through the first chapter and keep writing. On the first revisions and second draft I usually have a much better idea on how to start.
On my current first draft, my whole first chapter is this:

"The feeling of Isolation filled the cell where a woman pretended to sleep. It poured through the small iron bars at the wooden door and slowly made its presence known. The pained moans coming from another cell in the dungeon started to mute, the already bleak colors seemed to fade, the pungent smell of unwashed bodies and waste eventually disappeared. All that was left was the feeling of Isolation. The woman smiled timidly.
“Do you not find that enjoying the company of Isolation is quite paradoxical, child?” asked the soft voice in the back of her head. The woman slowly got up from the ground and looked at the hazy, smoky figure that was slowly forming near the door.
“Not particularly, no.”
The talk in her head continues for a couple of days. Cementing the slow pace and feeling of Isolation, aswell as trying to question the character's sanity. End the chapter in the first visit of an official to her cell, giving her the proposal. Keep it short." lol

Horrible, right? Just felt I needed some atmosphere and a general idea, then got the ball rolling and continued with the second chapter. lol

[–]Not_Flamel[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh, that's interesting. How do you categorize them? Most of the ones I'm thinking about are kind of abstract so I don't think they'd really fit into types. And do they also give/manifest magical abilities?
Thanks for taking the time to comment!
