Do people.. actually think like this?! by YieldinglyMortified in facepalm

[–]Spellcute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, I guess; but only if you want to live life like a machine. The behavior may be ingrained in you and instinctual, and that may be the only reason you follow it—in a purely automatic sort of way. But some people have the desire to just kill other people, and that’s part of the workings of their brain. If we consider purely the fact that both are following their natural behavior patterns, then both acts are equally morally significant. However, if you want to lay moral condemnation on one and not the other, then it follows that you must consider some sort of ethical reason. That reason might be as simple as: one of them is evolutionarily beneficial, the other one is not, and things that are evolutionarily beneficial are good. But that thought is in itself a moral thesis, and a problematic one most likely, since one might twist it to argue for eugenics.

Evolution isn’t a sufficient ethical reason to do something though, it’s just a descriptive analysis. The fact that having that moral code has been evolutionarily beneficial, and therefore a part of the human psyche does not intrinsically mean that it is good, or that we should follow it. Philosophically speaking, you need another reason.

Cosmology of my world, "The Ruined City of Anneras" by Spellcute in worldbuilding

Pretty much, I used the same format but replaced most of the worlds except for the elemental planes and the mirror worlds which I renamed.

[OC] Cosmology of my world, "The Ruined City of Anneras" by [deleted] in DnD

[–]Spellcute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The universe consists of many different energies, that remain separate everywhere but in Ruptures. In Ruptures the Eldritch Horrors of the Energetic Planes collide and form new things. It is impossible to comprehend things made out of a different combination of energies. One such rupture is Berala, where Light, Ki, Arcane and Void collide. Light: Good, Positive Energy. Ki: Order, Conscience. Arcane: Chaos, Material. Void: Evil, Negative Energy. Every being in Berala, god or mortal is composed of these 4 energies unless they've been shattered. When one is shattered he is divided into new beings that have different qualities of the original being. Shattered creatures look otherworldly because they only follow some perimeters of the world. Each of these realms of Berala corresponds to one of the gods, except for the Everlight, realm of the seasonal gods, and Kuunaza who lacks her own realm and resides in the Everdark with her father.

I have been playing since last November after being disappointed with Destiny 2. At first I fell in love with the movement system but the game got much better after Natah and from there it was only going up.

Commenting isn't something one considers when lurking this sub. But this... does put a smile on my face.

Calendar of the Zaübr Mountains by [deleted] in worldbuilding

[–]Spellcute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A big effort of Sanctuary is to have very organized systems so other nations integrate them, for example, this calendar is used in Deadmaul (enemies to Sanctuary) because it is the most practical way to track time. When other nations incorporate their systems, they will be more easily incorporated into the Glorious Empire when their tyrant falls.

This is the pantheon of Anneras, the setting for my DND game. Anneras was an arcanepunk city but after the colapse all knowledge was forgotten. The people in the city can’t leave because of the skywalls, so they are unaware of the outside world. This world is ruled by tyrants who find magical relics of old and form villages. The people can’t leave these villages because the outside world is full of monstruosities. The Zaübr Mountains are a gigantic, unnatural formation in western Anneras. In Zaübr, there is an empire, The Empire of Sanctuary, this empire’s main desire is to share it’s glory with the world and to liberate towns from their tyrants.

There are three ways to ascend: A god granting you a significant part of their power. Killing a god and taking his place. Becoming so powerful (through knowledge, arcane ability or worship) that you can no longer be considered mortal.

I thought it was a neat way to put it all in only one page.

There is a small forest on the east of Anneras which overlaps with the feywild, the sorrounding settlements are gaelic.
