  6. An attempt at drawing my character, Antiiss, riding her Gealmarra through the forest her village is in. The forest has trees so large that you can use their roots as bridges, so I tried to show that. Also, I added bioluminescent mushrooms because bioluminescence fascinates me.

  7. Writing Tip:
    Choosing a memorable name for a pub can leave a lasting impression on readers, and also hint at some sort of local folklore or history.

    Lost for ideas? There is a list of "Tavern Names in Medieval London" by Medievalists.net that could prove as inspiration for you.

    SO MANY IDEAS NOW WAIT:

    Baker Magic: The reason their baked goods are so popular is that, with just a whisper or a thought, they can imbue whatever batter or dough they have with their intention. Anything from poison or explosions to healing or regeneration. Plus, the only reason they're able to keep up with the mess is that anywhere that is considered their home, they are able to telepathically make brooms, dishes, or anything else inanimate do what they need it to.

    Blacksmith Magic: You think they get callouses from their line of work? Wrong. Iron skin. Plus, either trial and error or natural selection led them to have some level of control over fire. Not creating it, perhaps, but they can vary the heat and size of the flames, allowing them to perfect their craft.

    Farmer Magic: Contrary to popular belief, Farmers can't just make crops grow. That's ridiculous. They just know inherently how to summon the fae that do. And anyway, they can hear the plants, feel the life emanating from them and sense what they need to thrive.

    Construction Worker Magic: There seems to be an uncanny silent ability for the workers to communicate, but its really just telepathy. They are able to bond mentally with people at will, allowing them to share thoughts or intentions nentally, thus meaning they can work much faster than normally would be possible. And if they seem to brush off bigger stuff, broken bones and the like, it's just because they've developed a healing Magic that allows them to recover themselves. To a limited extent, of course.

  10. Random Fact for Fantasy World-Builders:

    In medieval households, the "still room" was managed by the lady of the house, where practical skills like food preservation, perfume making, and preparing herbal remedies were taught.

  12. I haven’t named these creatures yet, but they are the main livestock for Eloailsa.

    They are used for plowing soil, milk, and they are even sheared for the wool in summer. The wool is the primary fibre source for the village.

    They are not fast runners, so if their young is threatened, adults form a circle of defence. Their large and rotating ears help warn them of danger.

  14. I came across this #worldbuilding project on #youtube called the Eternal Ruins. The artsyle looks unique and it seems the world has a lot of potential.

    It doesn’t have many videos yet, but it’s worth keeping an eye on. Have a look if it seems interesting.
