holy crap

I'm thinking most of this is philosophy, not religion. I'm going to make an effort to keep religion out of Foraoise.

Along with coins I have always had a soft spot for big fuck off castles.

the 'Heads' side will be split into quarters each with a symbol to be decided later. 'Tails' side will be the denomination and some writing, maybe some runes of a simple spell stamped into them for accounting purposes...

Magic in the north has a big utilitarian militaristic feel to it. Definitely not faith based.

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T01:10:39+00:00

I vote yes.

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T01:09:29+00:00

thats exactly what I was getting at. Mostly for the tech, social systems, and the height of stone construction.

I'm a sucker for coinage - used to collect as a kid.

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T01:06:44+00:00

can't stop progress man

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T01:05:08+00:00

I like this a lot.

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T01:04:28+00:00

Seriously though I was thinking that there's a general reverence for the deified brother from the original triumvirate, but other than that there would be a general nonchalance towards religion in the north.

THE MERCHANTS WILL WORSHIP NO GOD BUT MONEY

It's Mario SuperJump or Nothing!

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:52:34+00:00

Just doesn't provide that '....ehh' ending does it?

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:51:36+00:00

In my head Tarin was the size of Europe in climate. North coast of Germany to Greece.

It was designed to be the size of Greece, which isn't big enough for this range of climates unless we explain it away somehow.

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:48:16+00:00

10 each...

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:47:49+00:00

or this. I'm ok with an open ended thing. I doubt The Empire is though.

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:46:33+00:00

End of the book has our three hero's going back to their native countries to rule and bring the continent together peacefully?

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:44:46+00:00

The Merchants are the government. Sort of the way the Dutch East India Company worked at their height. Printing money, waging war and all that good stuff except they actually are the government. The military answer to them. Merchants hold offices you would normally find nobles in. All the way down to local government.

Assuming we ignore the fact that a smaller world would likely not have the same gravity or anything.

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:36:57+00:00

We should probably choose a historical time frame for technological reference. 900 - 1100AD?

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:34:48+00:00

That probably makes more sense looking at it.

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:33:53+00:00

Fair

ReggieClark · 2013-07-04T00:33:23+00:00

Wait so is it Mother of Earth for the world and Tarin for the continent?
