Working out Species profiles...

[Janus]

Alright... I'm creating this board because we need to figure out how to hash out the work between us as far as making up stuff goes, that way we don't step on each other's feet! ^_^

I already figured out Harpies and Jinn, and I made a small description on humans in general, but I figured that someone might want to give me input on how they view the different 'clans' of humans, so post here on what you think each region has as far as 'humans' go. (You know what I mean, how we have Caucasians, Asians, hispanics... etc etc etc... I figured since the west is the 'fire region' it'll have mostly the dark-skinned folk but as for the rest I was hoping for input from you guys!).

Also, I BELIEVE Symph said she'd handle the elementals (correct me if I am wrong!). I am going to make a section for dwarfs, gnomes, fairy's and halflings (yay! The little people!). I can handle coming up some general stuff for elves, and fairies (since I created that demented forest to the south that contain elves and fairies I suppose I should take responsibility for their profiles ^^!) anyone want to take on gnomes and dwarfs? Az mayhap? *pokes az* I shall tempt you with e-Pocky... *holds up imaginary box of strawberry pocky*

and EVERYONE feel FREE to post any creature ideas! Please! Puh-leeeeeze =3.

[Symph]

Pocky!! *dives for pocky*

^_^

Yes, the elementals basics is all set for now! Currently, I am working on a lengthy description of the dragons of Illiria.

Also, I don't know if Az will be able to do the gnomes/dwarves descriptions anytime soon. He's been bogged down with Uni and work and I believe he's leaving for a trip to the states as well and won't be back for a bit.

*munches imaginary pocky*

So back to work I go ^^

[Rumor]

Pocky! Yay!.....What is this pocky that you speak of?

I can handle the dwarves. I have a few ideas.

[Symph]

*explained pocky* ^-^

Do we want to have gnome-gnomes besides the elemental gnomes?

And do dwarves live as long as elves? Just curious. ^^

[Janus]

ahhh thank you for handling the dwarves, Rumor~! ^_^ If you get EXTRA bored, feel free to play with gnomes too >_>

And if they have long lives will be ups to Rumor ^.^ We define our world here... muah ha ha ha ha...

Well since Umbra is where the slaves are kept i envisioned mostly white farmer type humans live there. Dressing in old fashioned but expensive cloths unless they are tending to the slaves... I imagine the women tend to stay inside and bake pies... either that or lounge about in their fancy white dresses... we got the farmer types and the rich types basically. Just an idea i assure you.

meep *.* Janus has kicked in his roll as god! *sits in front row to watch Janus determine life spans* YEha but.. ok *goes to read more on other psecies*

[Janus]

Ack! *chuckles* Actually, the Umbra is where the Jinn ran off to for sanctuary. The enslaved ones reside in Illiria itself.

The Umbra is basically the opposite of paradise, like a desolate land. ^^' If you play a Jinn who's been in slavery, they would actually be in the land of Illiria itself, likely to the southern region where most illegal and shading dealings in the continent are conducts ^_^

and GAH I'm such an idiot Nicki *whacks herself* There are gnomes... *points to self as the subtitles of Maximus Dorkus appears beneith her in a freeze frame*

Muaaaah. Ok going to frolic in deviantART for a little bit.

I would like to take this time to say that i just read for the first time th dragon things... AAHHHHHH I LOVE THEM! <.< how many characters is one allowed to have.. no! *calms himself* I'm trying to refrain on power characters due to my excess power play nature.. but their so damn cool! Okie ill go fix Zeeks profile... <.<

*envisions dragons in his head*

You know what would be really cool. If someone made a child dragon... Like a Blue dragon who in human form looks to be about 9 years old. And when he gets mad at you he splashes you with little miniature waves. Haha cutie! Oh dear...

Just one thing. It says that the dragons here inhabit the form of a more westernized view in terms of physicle apearence... I always thought that the serpentine ones were the chineese ones... Maby im wrong. Just wondering

chouchou.mon-blog.org/images/chouchou/dragon.jpg

i thought thats what the western ones looked like and...

www.cc.gatech.edu/projects/large_models/images/dragon/dragon.lg.jpg

that would be the chineese but perhaps I'm wrong... OR perhaps I didn't read it right.

[Symph]

*chuckles*

I probably just had a brain fart and wrote it strangely. You're right, those pictures are how i view the dragons. With the more serpentine ones being Eastern.

I likies dragons ^_^

*squeals* Awww! A lil' mini blue dragon! I'd name 'em "Waterbottle" hehehe

[Fimbulwinter]

Figured I'd be formal about it. Undead are written as well as posted, and once I find out what the dragons are like, I'll be adding Wyrms to their ranks.

Also, I created the Nether region, which I will have Kyndie put up shortly. And finally, once I find a suitable race, I'll be adding Druids to the class mix.

w00t for boredom ^^
------------------------------------------------------------------------
And since you apparently locked this thread, I'll add to my previous post! I was thinking of making wyrms quite literally Undead dragons <.< But I sorta jacked that idea from Warcraft. I'd make them different, of course, but still, Undead Dragons.. Can it get any better??

[Janus]

Well, Wyrms and Wyvrens (sp?) are sort of classified as 'monsters' since generally, though they are intelligent creatures, they're extremely vicious and violent. At least that's how they are usually portrayed like the mosters of the dragon race, if that makes any sense...?

And sorry, my YIM crashed and crapped out on me last night >< it kept giving me an error message when I tried to restart it.
