Tallman caretaker/nurse

The idea that other species might be hired by elves as nurses and caretakers is something I never considered.

Settlement/Culture brainstorm.

A barbaric tribe of warriors who wear the hide and fur of the mightiest beasts they've slayed. They have family clans, such as Ulfhednar (wolf, direwolf and kirin hides), Beowulf (bear hides), Thurketzar (felines).

A tribe of humans worshipping the Forge domain, experimenting with weaponry and mastering exotic blades and other harming stuff.

A tribe of humans living in caves inside a canyon. Each new family should carve their own home in stone.

A tribe who tattoo a family crest on the chest of their children, which changes and slowly mutates with each generation. The tribe's sages keep great stones with carved family crests on them and each family has one such stone on their territory.

A tribe living on a sand dune amidst the sea, fishing, hunting, and making a great living by hunting precious fish, pearls, shells, amber and obsidian near volcanoes.

A village which has a drastically different language from all other ones in the country due to isolation caused by a quarantine meant to save the kingdom from the plague that happened there.

A village populated by golems who revolted against their creators and wished for peace. They do a living by doing peaceful job and producing incredible amounts of vegetables and fruits - they don't have to eat so they can sell all stock at once.

A ruined library populated by memories entrapped in books, left by their authors. Herlock Sholmes really hates to meet Bames Jond every other morning as they pretend to sit at the bar.

A tribe consisting of four clans - Water, Earth, Fire and Air. It was all peaceful before the Fire Clan attacked...

A tribe who only have forenames and nothing else. They practice polygamy, have no marriage and are often pairing with people outside of the tribe.

Several tribes, all of which crippled by drought, try to keep peace by offering political marriages, weapons and livestock.

A tribe whose people have uniquely gray eyes. Legend has it they sold their eye colors to the fae in exchange for their territory never being home to catastrophies and them never being driven out of it.

A countryside which is surprisingly gifted with sorcerers due to some magical river floating not so far away yet hidden. The Enchanted House is where the royal family of the main town lives, and there is a kindergarten for the dangerous kids casting fireballs and other stuff.

A city with strange houses which appear to be made from literal 21st century rockets. Towers and churches with aluminum steel walls and tech no one can replicate - nor they can fix it. Who knows how this ended up in the medieval times aye?

Couple villages built on top of megalithic sigils made from stone on the ground, like those Nazca Lines. Streets are forming the outlines of the sigils, and each village has some strange power to be activated - may it be giving strength and mighty prowess to the villagers or summoning a great protection...

A city growing both up and down: Elves build the towers, Dwarves dig the ground. While the territory of the city isn't changing, the population skyrockets (or grounddrills?).

A village who think bears are sacred and somehow coexist with them, having them not domesticated but symbioting with them.

A village hidden inside an invisibly expanded house, say a tavern or roadhouse. Made by mages but now populated by simple folk.

A village which does not accept the orthography or writing system norms, instead using oonyouzhual szpellinh or an alternative and unique script, or even several.

A tribe of people who REALLY love piercings. Live in metal-rich territories and know the secret of body safe metals.

A clan of half elves who live separately from the kingdom and, as legend has it, were born from a family of an exiles human lord and an elven druid lady.

A tribe of wargs who practice their animal body possession constantly, possessing their horses (becoming great cavalry), mules (sitting in their house and letting the animal do the farming) and birds (to spy over the village and know if someone is coming).

Two houses in the middle of nowhere where two immortal beings live and are constantly arguing. Frenemies or something like that. Two elves perhaps.

A tribe which practices safe and ethical necromancy after the teachings of Pahl Pathene. Resurrecting people as clean and pretty skeletons who then work as a working force of the village and help everyone be happy.

An isolated village of monks who forgot their craft but still have power Ki talents.

A clan of werewolf druids who tamed their inner beasts and now use their wolf form as a wildshape.

A city which instead of growing started shrinking; People left, houses were made of good building materials such as high quality stone plates and stuff, so the mayor decided to start a business out of it, selling houses for scrap and making a living out of it.

A village surrounded by an unreasonably big circling wall. I mean 20ft tall and two miles in diameter just for a village of seventeen houses? Truth is an old king had bigger plans for the village but turns out those plans died out quickly after his death. Still, the wall got finished because hell why not.

A castle that got taken by revolt and now is part of the people of the town, inhabitated like a flat block or hotel with many lean-ons, add-ons and additional floors.

A tribe living inside a colossal being's skull half buried in the ground. Each family head has a weapon crafted from the skull bone while the chief of the tribe has the mantle of Bone Knight. Think Shao Khan with Black Panther's flavoring and Moon Knight style.

A tribe living on floating mountains.

A village completely populated by tulpas. Aka the town with fake people. Very creepy, get out of there as fast as possible once you realize where you are.

A village full of mimics. Thing is those people don't know they are mimics. Fake memories fill their heads as they think they are humans, living normal lives until at night they fall to their nature and devour travelers, without remembering a thing tomorrow or hallucinating that the travelers left the town already.

A city of winged humanoids. No ground floors, but many balconies and landing lines on buildings. No stairs (or almost no stairs) but large chimneys to fly up and down on, two per a building: one up and one down.

A city without windows. People use special crystals that make holograms of the sky inside their rooms, showing the weather and even letting them listen to rain noises :o Skylight too is transferable so really, what are windows for then?

A village which is technically one huge house made from smaller houses built sharing walls. Fireproof of course. Think Çatalhöyük but medieval.

A tribe stealing from aqueducts of a more advanced civilization and nomading here and there.

By tomorrow, it would be two weeks since I’ve saw s2. The fact that it’s been in my mind so long as me watching both The Little Mermaid and Across The Spider Verse shows just how good, emotionally wrecking, and memorable it is — for me as both a fantasy fan and a writer, who wants to create stories that would have people this attached to

#good omens #good omens 2 #the little mermaid #across the spider verse #this year entertainment deserves a pedestal #support your writers #support everyone that has carried the entertainment world for the asshole companies #big names. small names. and unknowns #creative writing #writers life #writing life #writing inspiration #fantasy inspiration #neil gaiman #hans christian andersen #stan lee #fantasy nerd #writing nerd #support the strike people!

random idea spawned from a discussion with a friend about modern setting fantasy: healthcare for fantasy races. orc dentists reshaping and fixing tusks to keep them in good condition. merfolk having quarantine tanks with medicated water when they're sick. reptilian races like dragons or lizardfolk having issues being vaccinated because their thick scales make it hard for needles

I love this kind of world-building!!

New probably bad concept: A rogue / assassin's guild that's made a contract with the local patch of the Feywild to have personal self-care and health-regulating familiars for their members to ease stress / PTSD symptoms

Story Prompt 20

In a bustling city where the rhythm of life played out in neon lights and busy streets, there existed a haven known only to those who stumbled upon it. Hidden amidst the concrete jungle, it was a place where the energy pulsated with an intensity that could only be described as illicitly good.

As the sun dipped below the skyline, casting an orange hue over the city, a door beckoned to the curious. Behind it lay an underground club, a realm of euphoria where laughter and beats intertwined seamlessly. The atmosphere inside was a magnetic force, drawing in people from all walks of life who sought refuge from the monotony of the everyday.

The music, a fusion of genres that defied categorization, was a siren's call, luring in those hungry for an escape. The dance floor was a canvas of movement, bodies swaying with the intoxicating melodies. No judgments lingered in the air; it was a space where the weight of the world seemed to lift, and joy became the only currency.

Amidst the crowd, souls converged, connected by the shared desire to immerse themselves in this forbidden bliss. A group of friends found themselves at the heart of the revelry, strangers becoming allies in the pursuit of this elusive utopia. Conversations flowed effortlessly, tales of mundane existence left at the entrance.

The ambiance was heightened by the subtle glow of hidden lights, casting shadows that whispered tales of liberation and unity. Each moment felt like a stolen fragment of time, an indulgence in the sheer pleasure of existence. It was as if the very essence of joy had materialized and taken residence in this sanctuary.

As the night progressed, an unspoken understanding permeated the air - a collective agreement to keep this affair a well-guarded secret. The patrons, bound by an oath, departed at dawn, carrying with them the residue of an experience that defied the constraints of legality.

And so, the haven persisted, an oasis of euphoria in a world that often forgot the power of joy. In the heart of the city, where conformity reigned supreme, this hidden gem thrived.
