people on bsky that aren't bridged are asking for references for my fursona. time to pull out the roblox avatar and explain the worldbuilding stuff i guess
so uh nameless fursona yes.
the flower's the most important part, i suppose. it has to do with a lot of complicated stuff, but the idea is that everything within said universe is descendent from plants. In that way, they exhibit plant-like features, and often have access to magic of a sort related to plants such as sprouting roots from one's foot. It also makes their digestive systems... nonexistant. The anatomy is there, but it's mostly there so that you can enjoy eating things. Species rely on being able to get energy from a star not far from the planet, or when it's dark, i want to replace the moon with the idea of a binary star where like one's really far and the planet's sorta orbiting around one so most the time when it's "night" there's the other star out in the distance and the plant species or whatever can absorb energy from that by sleeping outside. Richer people have access to like mini energy provider things that they have in their houses (or in extreme wealth, can just flat out wear) to get the energy they need from the sun to survive
"so how are you inserting an espeon bipedial logically" well uh i made up this world so i can do whatever i want but their entire gimmick is gaining power from the sun. Little miss no name here gets most of her sun energy from that flower on her head, which is also vunerable to pollination (more on that later once i figure it out). The gem there stores the "leftover" energy when her metabolism or whatever is full, so it can release very powerful bursts of raw energy in essence, sorta like a magical beam of you die orrrr if controlled it can sorta instead act like a feeding power of sorts since it is just raw sun energy
and then the idea is it'd be really easy to insert pretty much any fricking fantasy species I want. The only requirements are "it has some kind of plant on its body" and that's really it.
where do all these plant abominations come from? They come from the stars. Nah, i'm not actually joking. Some meteor hit the planet and these guys started growing out of it
speaking of. planet is fantasy core earth clone. you know the drill. generic beach area. generic main kingdom. generic area that's full of scorched terrain and evil people. Pretty much all of that I think.
It's worth noting that water is actually a lot more spread out. There's really only "lakes" at best and most of the planet is solid ground or marshland
been thinking about throwing some "generic world tree" stuff in too that goes something like oh yeah everyone's memories go into this tree when you die. Also you're not really dead because if someone were to pull your memories out they could grow you out of the ground
except I don't want to just do all the lovey dovey related to that. I wanna do the cursed eugenics level stuff too. Like "someone copies your memories a ton and now there's like 30 somewhat similar yous what are you supposed to do about that" and "let's break down ship of theseus for these revivals" and have like someone's rebirth turn them into an evil dictator or something just because
"what if the world gets too full" no it won't I have the power of world building and killing off characters behind the scenes it'll be fine
@kulupuSoweli Freemasonry is the belief in immortality and a supreme being that controls human beings to keep them away from enlightenment. One of their core ideas is something called Jacob's Ladder, where those ascending the ranks of the fraternity become starkly aware of how (<- keyword), most humans are trapped and sapped dry of their spirit.
@nethack wait that's sick. that feels like that'd be really fun to write in
