Hi I would really like to see a mermaid society modeled after orcas, please. 👉🏼👈🏼
• Matriarchal, led by oldest wisest female who raised other children in the pod
• Knowledge of their exclusive hunting techniques and hunting territories passed onto each generation
• Nomadic
• Often kills other sea creatures just for the thrill of it
• Strong emotional bonds
Thank you. You’re welcome.

Something I've noticed with some dried lavender I have access to is that it only really releases a strong smell when it is crushed, otherwise, the scent is quite subdued.
So anyway I think it'd be cool if by using an alchemic glove whose palm is lined with golden sigils and runes a character could crush various ingredients together in their hand to create aerosolised potion effects.

Random thought...
Modern jobs for fanatasy creatures:
- A bridge troll who works as a tollbooth operator. It’s a lot easier than trying to scare people into paying you, and slightly less chance of being stabbed with a longsword.
- A fairy who works in a coffee shop, or bakery, who’s customers always think they make the best pastries. It’s okay to take the food and drink, since the money exchanged makes it a fair trade.
- Dragons who work in the banking industry. They may, or may not, fully understand what investments, mortgages, or interest rates, mean but they do know that their horde grows year after year and that’s good enough for them.
Anyone got any other amusing ideas? Then feel free to add.

Predicting the past is a cool ability, you must be asking why? It’s because that person could tell us what actually happened during specific events in the past we have little information on, like something that was lost to history could be revealed because it happened in the past and that person could tell us what happened

please hear me out: multiple kinds of vampires like there's multiple bat diets yes, include the blood-sucking vampires, but also take other vampires into consideration. fruit vampires, who sucked the life out of fields due to their hunger. grub vampires, who... honestly aren't that bad for their environment, they're just gross little guys

Now I don’t mind this established trope at all where people are basically ants in the minds of dragons, but then, just once in any fantasy media or campaign I want a dragon or other massive higher creature that responds to the existence to humans in the exact way that I do to bugs.
Dragon that stops flying because it saw someone sleeping in a field and pokes them with a branch out of sheer curiosity to check if they’re dead or not.
Dragon that watches goblins scurry into one of their little huts and just pries the roof off to stare at them and look at the inside of their little shelter before putting it back down with a satisfied grin and leaving.
Dragon that sees a person treading water in the middle of a lake or the ocean, carefully plucks them out, and sets them down on dry land. Maybe puts a goat’s leg in their lap in case they need a snack. Also calls them “Harold” for no apparent reason.
Very young dragon that screams and freaks out upon seeing a bearded man with brightly colored robes and a pointed hat until it realizes the guy isn’t casting any spells. “Ohhhh you’re a wizard mimic” and then proceeds to handle the guy for a few minutes, fascinated. It also addresses the dude as “Craig” the entire time.
Dragon grabs a wild boar and repeatedly starts placing it in front of a town because it wants to see some hunting behavior in action.
Thief gets caught sneaking into a dragon’s lair. Resident reptile roars and is seemingly about to obliterate them when its mate suddenly comes rushing in with a giant cup. They have a grumbly back and forth before the thief is scooped up and promptly brought to be dropped off at the nearest random village. Dragon’s mate refers to the thief as “Sullivan SillyMan” the whole way.
Dragon that encounters a member of a humanoid race it has never heard of or seen before, at least in this region. Stops everything it’s doing and immediately kidnaps the individual. Speeds back to its lair and keeps them imprisoned while trying to flip through some tomes. Eventually drags out a magical item that they use to open a communication with another dragon, describing the prisoner, showing them the prisoner, exchanging friendly banter. There’s a whole 30 minute to and hour convo and everything. Dragon refers to the captive as “Thaddeus” the whole time. Last thing it does is sketch out a drawing of the person before taking them back to where they found them and turning them loose again.
Dragon doing this to a gnome

So I recently (and briefly) looked into the history of waffles and firstly, wow those things are old as hell.
Secondly, apparently at some point in time, waffle-type foods were made with totally non-grided shapes and that got me thinking "Hey what if there were waffle irons that embed shapes into the waffles which give you a buff when eaten" which is a pretty cool idea I think.
But also, I feel like just needing the right-shaped waffle iron is a bit too easy.
So maybe to actually activate the iron's ability you'd also need to have the right mix of spices and flavourers in the waffle batter to attune it to the shapes of the iron.
Oh and if you decide just to put normal waffles in your setting, give 'em a name like grid-cakes or something and just see if anyone notices that you're just describing waffles.

Zae, I've been perceiving your glorious edits, moodboards and everything to do with visual content you provide us with, and I'm just going to ask
What would be an ideal setting for a fantasy scenario of any nature for you? It can be self-insert or not, but I am very curious about where your imagination flows 💖
Hiii Lena thank you so much for asking💕💕
So my imagination is kind of all over the place as I was watching videos of old palaces on YouTube 🙈
This is kind of where I'd want to live right now, somewhat grand and opulent but also with rooms and halls with subtler carvings and motifs, basically rich and intricate. I'd want to be part of the court there, important enough to be included in decisions but not so much to draw too much attention and ire, someone who contributes greatly but secretly from the sidelines to bring about change. I probably picture myself roaming about gathering information and secrets, lounging in the gardens, relaxing a lot but also being generous and trying to uplift the state.
If given the chance I'd still probably be a doctor like I am now, I can't imagine myself as anything else. So probably something to do with health along with the stuff mentioned above.
That's really what I'm thinking of at the moment, thank you again for asking 💙💙

Dressage would 100% be centaur ballet. I think jumping would be gymnastics, racing would be track, barrel racing… not sure. What would barrel racing be?
Any other sports I’m not thinking of?
Edit: More centaur ballet/dressage, featuring the capriole move in the airs above ground.

Should war magic be banned in fantasy settings?
You know how certain weapons are banned for war in our world? Like, gas and other nasty stuff.
Wouldn't a world were access to similar weapons (magic) is easier, more available, and possibly obtainable much earlier when compared to our world, be dreaded or even despised after a certain amount of fighting?
Just a thought ~
Nothing i speculated on too much UwU

I’m so sick of this angsty teenage vampire romance bullshit. Gimme vampires who become foster parents for centuries’ worth of generations of children. Gimme vampires who were turned as children so that they have to go to a special daycare for the rest of their immortal lives. Gimme vampire teachers who can rewrite history textbooks because of how they lived through those times. All that potential wasted on toxic relationships smh.

You know how societies tend to generally bury their dead in the ground and live atop said ground? What if that was reversed.
What if in dwarvish cultures instead of keeping the dead under the earth which'd be taking up valuable living space, they just had spots above ground with stone "burial" shacks where bodies in tightly sealed up coffins are left.
And to deter grave robbing they're typically without any adornment or memorabilia of what they had in life. These are instead left in shrines that exist underground that can be prayed to.

Dragons that don't hoard gold are always top tier.
A really young dragon that hoards toys and games (he's happy to play with whoever visits).
A dragon chef that hoards ingredients (I hope you like spicy food).
A dragon smithy that hoards ingots and other metals (dragonscale armor is made from scales that they've shed).
A dragon that kept losing her clutches of eggs and started hoarding orphans (the ones that moved out when they got older all visit for the holidays, its a big event)
