Before others go "There is not this montster, no hidden magic, etc.
There is the words Myths and legends in there.

Also, THIS IS A DAMNED GOOD IDEA!

Concerning the bandits of the Sorrows. You should have a skype convo with @BrianAT16 and I. Altho you know alot of the Blood Serpents already

And perhaps a section for Sorrow's settlements. I plan on making my own threads for Rhunon, and @mucusBONES can speak alot more about Eresse then I.

 

[SallyPirate]

Oh oh, it'd be super helpful if the books IC had an OOC page to say they're also myth/legend, any attempt to keep information consistent is awesome and helpful

 

[Gaby]

Sorrows settlements..... Mmmh, not sure if it fits with the mythical theme of these volumes.

XD look at the northern kingdoms ones. I'm looking for stuff that's fill conspiracy theories or similar. Stuff that'd be explicitly supernatural. Like faeries. If we wanted to max irish, faeries would cool.

Maybe dead sorrows settlements have tortured spirits in them? We could weave a ghost story about rhunon!


As for the disclaimer, yes, of course. Note its not accurate to real server lore at all, and merely coyly references obscure lore while getting every detail wrong. Mmyes

I've been looking forward to something lik this... Things that if studied would make sense, but due to the times where simply blamed on mythical things.

Yes! Something like that would be great! Soon, I'll be scouting around for ideas to add into the book. You could add a few.

Yes. Have you ever heard of The anime Gosick? This just reminded me of it. I recommend it, given you enjoy anime.

7: the Dangers of Heresy

Are you traying to say something here gaby bb~?

 

[Gaby]

Are you traying to say something here gaby bb~?

ahahaha not with that order!

the Monsters of Shoreless Gulf is merely part of a series on monsters all over the NK. sea dragons and whatnot.

the Dangers of Heresy is actually me offloading a rejected lore concept into a superstition book.
it was a cool concept, but in the esteemed words of Mich, it did this to the established canon:

so basically, IT'S PERFECT AS A SUPERSTITION HELD BY THE UNEDUCATED MASSES! : D

 

[Gaby]
