Welcome to Gaia! ::

So based on the ideas I posted in the Ideas Thread I thought I would set some basic things I think should be covered on a few to give an example of what some ideas involve.

Races - The entire list of living races from those who live civilized, to those who live like savages or maybe just rustically. The list can constantly grow over time with new people wishing to add to it. This may be on idea that everyone contributes to at some point or another.

Now once that race is decided to be in the world someone or a group of someones will need to establish the basics of that race, so you see one idea leads into more allowing for an ever expanding world.

World Map - bring your art skills to play and make the world truly come alive. Do it with paint or pencil, computer or tablet however you create in the world of art go for it.

Political Structure - This would be an area that will require good old fashions writing up the ideas details. Maybe not as flashy as races or the map but just as important as the political structure could have reactions or cause some other ideas to move or shift certain ways.

Ooh! Ooh! Could there be vampires? Not like Twilight vampires. I have a whole mythos about vampires I'd like to try! -is bouncing around like a puppy-

Yes go for it Tahiri, and see if Lady Hikari wants to add anything she one of our other Vampire fans. I'll mark you down for it Tahiri.

Think D&D, Forgotten Realms, Lord of the Rings. Magic, dragons, elves, dwarves, the basic fantasy genre idea. So I would like to stay in a Medieval-esk time frame, if someone comes up with a REALLY good idea for something say in an early renaissance period that might be ok. Lets try and stay away from a ton of black powder and steam punk, although some is ok. I know black powder really helps pirate based stuff but unless someone wants to make a really in-depth pirate idea.

I tend to be a bit picky when it comes to Vampires so I think I'll count myself out of this one sweatdrop

If your idea differs greatly in some regards to typical vampire thinking it might be a good idea to maybe sum up the basics of the idea so everyone see it. The idea will be used by everyone who RPs in the world so the idea benefits greatly if its generally accepted by all. Not that it means you can or cannot do you idea if some people are issues with your idea, but maybe talking with that person and finding some common ground will help, and who knows it could help grow the idea even more from your original concept.

Well, my idea on vampires is that they are still living although their heart beats much slower than a human's. They have increased strength and speed, but not to Twilight standings. They can be killed by stakes to the heart, beheading and are weak to crosses and holy water. Vampires can come out in the daylight, but their power is reduced to a normal human's and their skin smokes ever so slightly, identifying them as a vampire.

If this is unacceptable, then I would use the Buffy the Vampire Slayer definition of vampires, cause I love BtVS.

Magic will be its own idea and will need someone to work it as well. As large and encompassing as magic can be I would hope multiple people would work on that idea.
