World news 1

I may be moving this to a private domain. We shall see.

Anywho, obviously this place is a bit barren right now. Need to put together some crack teams to be moderators and writers/designers to help me with the site and the plot.

No I won't make just anyone a mod or designer. I am CHOOSING them!
You can apply but know that I will be rather picky. Since I want this to be more than a passing whim of mine.

haha...I doubt i'm worthy, but i'm totally for a mod job or designer(i'm extremely creative....seriously you should see inside my head, it's weird)

I dunno about writer, been about a year since i last roleplayed and i think i have to write enough with mah novel. Plus i have grammer issues, so i'm probably best at the visual side of things.

Well by designer/writer I mean helping with cultures, race descriptions, laws, descriptions of locations, etc... X3

Besides.. I was testing features and things and made you a mod anyway. XD *pokes your very blue name*

OMG....thats what that means...I thought it meant i was online...XD Totally awesome. Well i can deffently help with designing locations, plus i need practice drawing buildings for when i do concept art from my graphic novel...the last piece i attempted kinda sucked(the sketch was great but it was kinda hard painting crystal buildings)

I could come up with designs from anything to buildings to gods. I dunno, if you need help with anything you can just ask me.

I like making up folklore, cultures, and social interactions if that helps? XD I kind of would like something to do besides wait for a reply to RP posts. XD

I know...I either play monoply or draw between posts...i should probably finish doing my character profiles too.

I like making cultures and such >u>

World building is my favorite part of new worlds and such. I'm not the greatest at landscape concept-art. But I need the practice anyway before I get back into art school. Describing races is also one of my favorite hobbies. I don't know why. I also need something to do between posts.

I can only play solitaire for so long.

with the designers it might be easier to give them a race each to work on, so then they can concentrate on one or two races, rather than having to constantly be contacting you and another person working on the same race. Although you were probably gonna do something like that, i dunno ignore me...XD

Indeed. Assigning locations, races and what not. So what what would my little mods be interested in doing?
Choose some ones you want or wouldn't mind taking part in helping with.
Such as areas on the maps. *points to DA* or some races you would like a say in.

Well I'm totally inlove with Pillars, i'm also interedted in the Mother tree and City....I can just imagen the buidings there already. But if anyone else wants either of them, i don't mind.

Well I can imagine the buildings having an almost greek/roman frame, but more like ancient ruins held together by trees and plants, the branches having been delicately woven into also tatched type roofs. Almost like there was a civalisation there before that has since moved on(or died out) and nature has taken it's course and new newer ihabitants have learnt to work this in to their day to day living.

I just get this close to nature feeling from it.

Also is the wildlife on Meddus like our or will you need some animals designed?

I was thinking of doing folklore for the Mother tree but I'm just as interested in Grimm. So far there is no detailed map of Grimm and it only shows up on Meddus's complete Planetary Map. I as wondering if I could do a description for it. X3

i never noticed that before. Grimm certianly looks very forboding. You can still work on the folk lore for mother tree if you like. ^_^

I'm so glad i ordered my wacom today, it's gonna make things so much easier to draw and sketch all this than my current tablet(even thought it's 5x the size of my wacom XD)

That sounds good for the city around the roots.. But the buildings in and going up the tree I'm thinking more total natural things. Like mud huts and nests built into branches and knotholes.

As for animals... There are some like our and then others that are like "wtf is that?!" XD
Such as Harrow the Giraffe Weevil is like a horse. And Bull Weevils will be like cows. That Baboon Dog thing is exactly that. XD but there will be regular animals. Like how there are regular little silk moths even though Wyrm is one. X3 That sort of thing. So some animal designs would be welcome.

You guys both can brainstorm together on the tree if you want. :3 Majority of areas are open for suggestions. I'll go make a subforum for the discussion.

Also I will try to draw a detail map of Grimm soon. I have it drawn in my head.... but just not feeling my topographical skills right now. XD

Yeah i was thinking that with the trees, or having them hanging, like the little paper wasp hives you get hanging from tree(or even ants nests) normally made from chewed up bark and leaf litter. I think that the highly evolved insects of Meedus would have other means of creating those kind of things though. XD

Haha as for the animals, i love the baboon dog, i can actually imagine that existing somewhere in a lab.

Heyo. *waves*

I would very much be liking to offer my help in any ways possible. I like world building, writing descriptions, and making maps of various things (Cities, Building Plans, Caves, you name it).

XD If Peanutchan lets me I'll definitely incorporate how the town has progressed over time into a part of the Mother Tree.

Yup. When the maps on DA were mentioned I went to go look at the map again and was reminded about Grimm. Since you can't really see anything because it's covered by clouds/smoke I kind of imagined it to have black sand everywhere.

Looks Volcanic, perhaps it's black ash from a recent eruption?

Yep. Grimm be a very dark and creepy place.
Black sand, mud swamps, Shear cliffs, constant storms,
*cough* Excuse to make prehistoric bugs *cough*
lava flows, heavy jungles, an abyss in the center... creepy creepy.

You know.. the usual dark continent. OwO

Ooh, ooh! I can, I can! *waves hand in air*

At least, I can try my hand at it. Granted, anytime I try to draw city-esque landscapes they tend to become slightly abstract (like this one township thing that I drew growing out of a stack of four human vertebrae). Although from reading what's been described of the Mother Tree thus far, I'm picturing something sort of like a giant Mangrove tree...

Think the Mana tree. XD
Every one kind try their hand at the Tree and cities if they wish until we have nailed something out and then the project will be assigned to one person.
I personally have also been trying to make some cheap paintings of the Mother tree and Island of Blue... but I is failing miserably. XD
