Create a Setting
« on: May 24, 2014, 08:32:30 am »

Exactly What it Says on the Tin. You guys post suggestions, and I integrate them, thereby creating a setting. Suggest races, cultures, landmarks, composition etc. I'm fairly certain there is nothing else to mention. Correct me if I'm wrong. I'll post updates of the world every 14 posts, at the top of each new page. Ready?

Sadly, but cows became extinct centuries ago. Their shit is a very rare delicacy, available only to the upper class. Low-standing golems survive on sunlight. Tasteless, dull and boooring.

Science is always important. But it needs more flaming cats. Can't we build bridge-based catapults and fling flaming cats at the dust and goo?

It's time for the ATHATH Death Counter to increase once more in celebration for the end of the world.

We could replace 'shit' with something else, such as magic.
Yeah, they eat magical essence, or residue or whatever is left after use of magic.

The golems were originally built by a race of intelligent humanoid ants, who have since gone deep underground, never to be seen by the overworld inhabitants again.

The ants themselves were golems created by an order of ancient entities.

And already I see why I love Bay12. Only we could come up with this kind of stuff.
Anyway...
Magic is elemental in all it's forms, and is either EARTH, WATER, FIRE or AIR. Each time a person uses some magic another kind is weakened, while that one is strengthened.

Lost to the sands of time was the element of MUSIC. Though some say there are extremely rare tomes that teach the magic hidden away somewhere...

How can they exist when the art itself is lost?
Maybe The Bands are ghosts cursed to eternally wander the world?

And the only still-living music magician left in the world is the "Lady of Serenade".
