Random XMen Movies Thought
Saturday, June 4th, 2016 04:56 amAre they gonna keep jumping forward by ten years for each movie? Is the next one going to be set in the 90s with McAvoy & Fassbender playing roughly 50-to-60 years old characters? (Assuming that XMFC Charles is in his mid/late 20s & XMFC Erik is in somewhere in his early 30s)
Idk why it just struck me now but for some reason between one blink and the next I started wondering if maybe the goal is to get the franchiseback to being starred by Stewart & McKellen- Fri, 16:59: RT @PayeTaShnek: 47 000 décès par an dans les pays où l'#IVG est interdit.

2016 Worldbuilding June, Day 4
Saturday, June 4th, 2016 07:38 pmCultures
As the prompt post says, cultures are a vast topic which we can’t possibly hope to tackle in detail for the entire world we’re creating, let alone every continent. In view of that, and because lot of things in this verse are still in the process of getting major shifting things, I’m going to focus most specifically the Dragonriders’ culture, and cultures from the Lands of Mist, which are my primary focus in the novel anyway.
I. CULTURES FROM THE LANDS OF MIST
As I mentioned in the Geography post, the Lands of Mist is the continent where my novel is set. During the time of the Rune Elves, the entire thing was dominated by a single empire (of the classically plagued by patriarchy variety). After the Split, the emperor’s children, who weren’t all that fond of each other to begin with, were each changed into a member of one of the seven new elven species with very different ideas as to how said species should live and organize.
