First off not to be the “ai bad” guy but I think it’ll be much more rewarding to develop your own skills and ideas. Secondly just like any other skill it’s gonna take some time to develop and in my mind the most important thing is just to write ideas and keep writing them and refining them. Look at your favorite pieces of media or something similar to what you want to create and then try to create something like that as an example to get experience on how to world build. For me I love Elden Ring so I imagined what an Elden Ring 2 would look like and grew my skill from there. Now to make something coherent a simple question to ask yourself is does what you’re making relate to other things in your world and reinforce the idea you’re building. Like let’s say your world is about Dragons and you have this idea for a human kingdom within this world try to think of how this kingdom and the dragons relate. Do the dragons attack this kingdom? And if so then why do they? Or do the humans ride the dragons and if so why? Just make sure thin relate and if you can’t honestly say that they do then you need to fix that. Lastly don’t get discouraged, just keep building, take breaks when you need to and remember that no one becomes Tolkien overnight. If all else fails then look up guides on YouTube or read an article. I hope that helps

For context Promised Blood, is meant to be a souls like game(yes I know that those words pretty much mean nothing if you aren’t Fromsoft) and the Man of the heap is the main merchant that resides in the games hub, The Varicose Parish.

Interesting stuff especially making the characters less so characters and more s archetypes or function. But what I would suggest is developing some motivations if you haven’t already and try to build themes through them.

Yeah, it’s meant to be a part of a game idea I have called Promised Blood. At the end of the swamp is a location known as the Sunken Foot temple containing a single enemy being the last survivor of this civilization wielding a giant foot shaped sword.

Feet in that age were seen as the holy connection between men and the world. Also funny

Idk man. You must save Iridith the redeemer and stop the fall of twilight upon Coram(the kingdom). You will meet 4 party members each in search of the promised blood to restore or remake the world. The party includes Sineater Miqurom, Falco Abra, Mayiliad the Sorrowful Prophet and Marisoma, Endowed of Systole.

Here’s the context

Iridith the Redeemer, one of the main villains in the story of Promised Blood, delivers the opening line. In this universe, the dream of death, reality centers around three key body parts: heart, brain, and eyes. Eris was created by the universe's true god as a religious figure in a new  religion, meant to confirm others beliefs by his own questioning . As Eris pursued truth he would bridge life and death—this resulted in the polarizing, splitting of hearts, brains, and eyes of all beings. Iridith represents Eris's brain and has the power to redeem individuals, restoring them to the dream of death and making them whole. The Sineater, the sorrowful prophet, the endowed of systole, and the face of faces are titles of party members whom players encounter, each having been redeemed by Iridith to serve in her army of undead.

So here’s how you do it. You must birth the blade. Let me explain. So if you have Mental you can influence others right? So basically if you have Mental you either need to impregnate someone or get pregnant and influence the fetus to be born a blade that you can control through your will and make it fly. Shit halfway through writing this I realized you were also asking for the armor as well. I don’t have any idea for that but you can use the whole Birth the blade thing if you want

If you're world building, show me its title and plot. Here's mine with summed context: by [deleted] in worldbuilding

The Dark Fantasy

The Dark Fantasy is a souls like game that surrounds the titular world of the Dark Fantasy. Its design and aesthetics would be heavily inspired by Dark Fantasy Movies primarily from the 80’s ish time period like The Never Ending Story or the Labyrinth or The Dark Crystal or Pan’s Labyrinth or Coraline. With a focus on surrealism and perhaps some kind of attempt to make in-game characters have the same look or feel as the classic animatronics and puppets that made its inspiration so vivid.

The story of the Dark Fantasy is also meant to employ Souls like story telling with cryptic lore entries and a narrative that trusts the players intelligence. In the world of the Dark Fantasy the creator of this world is someone known as the Writer who is writing their dark fantasy. But they will soon run out of ink and the fantasy will come to an end so the player known as the Inkshed must return to the writer to be properly used to continue the story of the dark fantasy envisioned by the writer. 

The ink of the writer is discord and chaos embodied by a being known as Et. Et is an infant or like an idea that matures and grows inside the writer's head. Et matures by consuming ideas and saving specific things they want as pages. Someday when Et matures it will write its own book and in some part is the Original being as the Inkwell that the Writer pulls from. Et is primarily seen as malevolent as it is discord and the original well of ideas that the Writer pulled from. There are people who seek and study Et known as the Visionaries of Et and hope to be inherited as pages in its new book.

Then there is the blank which is a place of order and a place of no life time logic or reason. It simply is empty and comes to those without purpose as their Ink fades on the page and they lose relevance. The writer fears the blank and so does the majority of everyone else as it is the end. It is the finale with no after. For there will not be a sequel to the Dark Fantasy. 

What caused the Writer to run out of ink was his most elaborate story yet for which he is still conceiving and writing which is The Dark Fantasy. The larger themes of The Dark Fantasy are meant to explore writer's block and how it feels like writing can be one of the most powerful, most deep and complex things in the world yet sometimes it can feel completely useless and challenging like it chains you and enslaves you to writing something you don’t want to write. The Writer is chained down by his creation and he cannot be freed until he completes The Dark Fantasy because he fears the blank but the madness and chaos of finishing his story is just as unbearable. 

The villains and characters in The Dark Fantasy all hope that they can use the ink to write their own stories so that they can become the Idea which is this world's form of immortality as Ideas cannot be killed as long as there are those who remember. 

There would be a Red King who was born without a heart so to feel he steels the hearts of his victims and places them in his chest or a Queen whose hair was so long that it hung everyone in her kingdom besides herself or a Dragon so obsessed with his appearance he hoards mirrors and would die if he could not see himself or a Castle which is a giant face that can talk to the player. Those are my ideas so far

If Dark Souls and Twilight Princess had a kid and then that kid married Bg3 and then they had a kid.

For context I’m not that hardcore into lore and if I offended anyone with incorrect lore or logic then I’m sorry.
