When I was in my teens, I used to make an entire magic system with 360+ unique spells, ordered in magic schools and categories, and it boggles my mind that I basically reinvented DnD mechanics, even down to metamagic.
I wanted to make a wiki about it but I don't have time for it.
The point was to try to encompass every "superpower" I could think of into a magic system.
I even got lore related to it all, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna simply reuse it all for OC worldbuilding. Ngl the fun part was naming all the spells, symbols and coming up with the logic of it all.

Happy end of Nanoreno everyone!
This year I just have a little prototype where you take 7 renameable NPCs to an Arctic snowy Mt. Terror.
There's a plot and multiple routes and characters but as things happen, none of that is in this prototype π.
Can you make it north and survive the 12 days using deduction? π
hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset
- the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years
- taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult
- at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)
- 'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65
- it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age
- it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.
- you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, be fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.
- young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!
- there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big
RPG which initially appears to take place in a Dark Souls style shitdark setting, all crumbling ruins and brooding skies and asshole skeletons posing cryptic riddles, but then you get past the tutorial and it rapidly becomes apparent that literally only the player character's home region is like that.
To be clear, it's still a King Big Sad Guy, Who Did The Flame Thing scenario; it's just that the Flame Thing only affects the domain of the one who enacts it, and King Big Sad Guy was kind of a small-time warlord, so it only fucked up a region a couple dozen miles across.
Happy WBW! Are any locations in your fantasy world(s) based on or inspired by a real-world locale/place?
okay so itβs not Wednesday but I finally found an answer for this! Bless
Most of the places in my world are weird amalgamations of real places, fictional places, and my brain being silly! But thereβs one place in particular that I explicitly remember drawing inspo fromβ
In my world, itβs called the Viperβs Pit. Situated (usually) in the deserts of Qultaar, itβs a never ending magical sandstorm thatβs been going since forever. Some say they see snakes in thereβ¦ hence the name!
You can probably guess where I drew inspiration from: Jupiterβs Great Red Spot!
anyways Iβm sorry for the late reply I just could NOT come up with anythingβ¦
Ty for the ask!
