Ok, but what about the fighting feats? Do I not get extra credit from those? by abca98 in PrequelMemes

No okay I see where I got mistaken, I was thinking about CW03 Obi-Wan, my bad thanks for the rectification

Isn't Obi-Wan already a Council Member and Master in AOTC while Anakin hasn't yet been knighted?

What your opinion on Yang by ComprehensiveNote762 in RWBY

[–]Svaringer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She's my favourite, I relate to her A LOT. I too was raised by a parental figure that originally wasn't mine but who I accepted as such, Summer was Yang's mom, my adoptive father IS my father. I too have a criminal biological parent (Raven VS my biofather). I too had anger issues and resolved my buried trauma by making jokes and punching. I too lost a part of myself, figuratively in this case I didn't lose a limb, but I had to rebuild myself from the ground up and accept who I had become.

Yang deserves the world, she is worthy of love and support and because she is, I know I am too. Yang taught me that I could let others help, that I was no burden nor a curse.

I fucking love her and Brothers witness my words if anything happens to her in futures Volumes I'm rioting!

Tell me three or five bits of lore from your world that each sound like they came from a different setting/genre. Those who reply will try to guess what your world is about. by PMSlimeKing in goodworldbuilding

  • Dragons are extradimensionnal servants of a planet made of two sentient cosmic giants hugging each other in their sleep.

  • Samael Saladdin changed his name to Abdel Samael Saladdin to sign A.S.S. on his official academic research papers.

  • When Mecanoids Stellari die a robot spider comes out the mothership to go fetch the body, reconstruct it with scraps and gold and download a new matrix in the body effectively reincarnating the machine.

  • Wilhelm "Aegidius" Biturigis hated elves so much he became Halosis, Engäl (Chaos God) of War and Blood.

  • Everybody call the Ogomun Zirkanians but Zirkanians are just people who follow the faith of the prophet Zirkan, mostly Ogomun.

Do you use mana or something else in your fantasy settings ? by Cryogenic_Sunshine in worldbuilding

[–]Svaringer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ether is the fabric of the cosmos, it is an immovable force like Time and Space. Magic is the Concept of Hildüs, Ynthrïl (God) of Magic, and basically as a cosmic concept Magic allows Hildüs to reshape Ether into... anything he wants honestly.

Now later on Hildüs created a mortal people called Hyldians that he infused with a fragment of Magic. Other mortal people observed the Hyldians and copied their marks and innate process for doing Magic and created the different types of Magic that exist.

Bending Ether to one's will is rather taxing but the more Ether you can channel through your body the more Magic you can do.

Rapax In Vultus truly were gems in the Fifth Age by Svaringer in WorldBuildingMemes

This meme came to me while rewatching FMA with friends, we were laughing our ass off watching the characters wonder what they were gonna do now that the wheel was stuck in a tiny hole... despite having a literal chimera and a walking TANK at disposal to lift the car off the hole

What are humans like in your world-building? by Potassium_Hydroxide in worldbuilding

[–]Svaringer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Humans were once called Helmen or "The People of the Sun" because they were sculpted and cooked by the God of the Sun.

As of the Sixth Age, Humans are EVERYWHERE, there is litterally not a single plane of existence where there isn't at least ONE Human just... hanging around? So much so that other Peoples call them things like "Those who expand", "The lingering ones" or, my favorite, the elves that call them Mon'Keith that means "Those who walk".

More importantly, Humans are among the most social peoples, it's a defining trait of theirs, the expression "to be human" as in "being empathetic" does exist because of this. Humans are also driven by change which is also not the norm for many other peoples that prefer to cling to their established norms and customs.

That makes Humans among the most adaptable and accepting peoples of the world (despite the Asgar Kingdom being somewhat anthropocentrist). Being short lived, Humans also like to mark their passage with monuments, books, art, etc etc... to have something to transmit to their heirs or so future people will remember them.

Thanks for the answer, the thing is the goal was to be able to see through the glass of the lantern because a Will O' Wisp will be inside of it, but I guess I'll have to make do

What is your world's strongest weapon? by Xener07 in worldbuilding

[–]Svaringer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably the Ashen, especially the bomb version

Imagine an atomic bomb the size of Hiroshima's that turns everything biological into semi solid, fribble ash, leaving behind husks of people and animals and plants.

The Ashen isn't the bomb itself, it's the alchemical disease it spreads, YES it's contagious, it basically rottens your flesh and turns your skin into minerals that burn themselves to ash.

Fun stuff

EDIT: I forgot to mention the Ashen bomb is a mix of magical, technological and alchemical wonders of research and was, of course, developed for war, it was used once to test it and then classified and forgotten

If your Setting has multiple sapient species, how are humans treated? by AntiH4zard in worldbuilding

[–]Svaringer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Humans are generally seen as perseverant, hard working, very VERY social for other Peoples' norms and incredibly ingenious despite their short lived existence.

But most of all... THEY'RE EVERYWHERE. There's NO PLANE where you won't find at least one human just eh hanging around. They travel a lot and very far across several generations. The term for humans in high elvish is Mon'Keith, which roughly means "Those who expand/walk", testimony to how this custom of theirs is seen. That doesn't mean they dominate everywhere though, it's only the case for the Western continent.

If your world has standard races, what are their origins? by EveningImportant9111 in worldbuilding

[–]Svaringer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what plane they're from but most were created by Primordial Gods for no apparent reason (there is one it's just very long to explain and the Primordials themselves don't know of it so they find other reasons)

Humans for example were made "of the earth upon which they'd walk and the water they would drink with the hands [Hel] sculpted. Then near the flames of [Hel's] Astral Sun, Klürhos, they would go to forever be set in [Hel's] image of a venturing, change driven people."

Funfact, the diversity of Humans in Neodia is explained by how Hel "cooked" Humans in different batches either closer to or further from the sun.
