This weeks update schedule, and a quick poll · 6:41am Feb 24th, 2013
Lets get the first part over with quickly.
Saga of The Beast: Thursday
Ventures of Dreams: Sunday
Saga of The Beast: following Tuesday
Okay, now I really have two polls, one for each story.
VoD:
How is it going so far (as far as OOC-ness is going)? Is it being resolved (as is my intent)?
SoTB:
Am I giving Brother Cleon enough cbaeacter development? In other words: would you like to see more of him, or should I keep him to the "minimalistic guide" that he was before?
I look forward to your feedback.
Also, does anyone here have any knowledge in designing fictional religions? I need to make three of them for a story I have planned, and it's getting a bit overwhelming, since I don't know what I'm doing.
celestial (not celestia): they are basicly sientoligy, or other words belive in sience and the stars are what they worship
spade slick
and straeh
these are simple but as far as religoins go, i will hook you up soon. i haven't though of it latly. tell me if they are ok. i love spade slick. such a bad ass killing the main carector
863326 I got the first part, but can you explain the rest a bit?
Also, what about the poll?
863427 remember i haven't read a lot latly. i have tryed to catchup to seson 3 but am in 2 20 right now. sorry.
I think you are doing things right so far.
For SoTB: I think Cleon can go either way, the best choice is to do whatever you feel like as it will often result in the best content when the writer is comfortable with the designs of the story.
On the subject of religions: I would say the very beginning is to determine whether you are starting a 'monotheism', a 'polytheism' or a religion which is not based upon the worship of a god. Then there are the ways in which the followers honor and revere their god(s) usually through prayer, monuments, or feats of accomplishment (including things such as war).
These are some of the very basest characteristics of a religion, I hope I could help.
Write on!
866928 thanks! I've actually gotten the frameworks for two of the three done, but today I hope to get some actual content written in the story. Now if only I could decide what order to do the chapter in...
OKAY! So, I think it would be quite eventful if you put more character in Cleon, if you feel as though you hadn't. My point being that he has now become a important factor towards Fluttershy and to the history as well. Another reason is that since he has his view on why and how he is the Minister (Note: I may be a tad off on some things since my 2 week hiatus..) had given him a initial grant of being more than just an guide or static character.
Feels good to be back!
868409 Y'know, I still can't figure out what title to give him. I'm rather upset about that, since I've invented the frameworks of three religions just in the past week, but I can't do it. There isn't really a precedent for it that I can draw off of.
Eg: for most titles, I borrow them from other cultures, usually altering them a little.
Unfortunately, I need to find the right word. I'm sure ill get it soon though.
