- I'm 30 and female - I like watching anime, reading comics, and playing video games (but not a lot) - and I also watch the stock market as a part-time job As for my writing style. I write in paragraph format, but sometimes those paragraphs are super long. I like shorter replies because I'm a...

Oh, that's a good way of looking at it. You're very informative, MrThe. Thank you for help and insight. Do you have a suggestions on books (history and/research related) or do you think internet sites would be good enough?

Oh, the wonderful world of wiki. That's the page I came across when researching the general language. Though, now that I look at it, the subdivision section isn't too well oganized; some listings are for a language branch, while others is a group of people that accompany the given language...

What do you mean by band? Is it like how royal families spilt due to marriage and differences?

You mention the regions, do you think there is a particular area of the Aztec empire I should research? For my project, I planned on combining the today's-modern tribe member life with the fantasy elements from Aztec lore.

The conversation was some time ago, but I assume they meant their ancestors immigration from China. I have not researched too heavily into Mexico's history. Oh, that's interesting; though, I shouldn't be surprised. The reason why I decided to research the Aztec empire alongside with the Native...

Which tribe was that?

Do you by chance have an interest in spy-revolved worlds? The Tupi tribe might be different, but from my research on the Shoshone tribe and generalized Native American culture research, Native American culture is related the Aztecs, which I do believe Mexicans are also related to.

It's you again! You replied to my sci-fi and science tread not too long ago. I read a few of your own threads, too; seems like we have a lot of x-cross interest in our topics. From what I understand, a lot of the Native American tribe formed from the South America/Mexico area, and from a couple...

Does anyone else on here by chance love doing research on Native American lore and mythology? Looking for a research buddy to help bounce ideas off of. :closed eyes open smile: I focus on the Eastern Shoshone tribe for real world research (since that's the tribe I wish to focus on), but I've...

True enough. Why keep something if it doesn't add to anything? Though, I'd like to keep the sibling, so I'm trying to figure out a way that makes the character not a third-wheel. I have major planning ahead of me.

This is what I do, and I agree, when you intertwine character histories, the characters are closer. I don't intertwine everyone to everyone, but I try to link a support/secondary character to leading characters. Sometimes it's a struggle to figure out that intertwining story. Maybe that's a clue...

Oh! A rough draft of who the character is. Yeah, I got that much penned; I was just trying to make them more relevant to the story.

Can you elaborate on this statement, please.

Makes since that you would treat a RP support character differently than that of a personal project. Why waste the RPer's time if no one cares about said support character. Ah, I should decide how the character would impact the leads and/story outside of them being a lead's sibling.

Here's the kicker. I created the character with a mind set of making them important... and I can't come up a decent arc that could focus on them. It's as though when I try too hard is when the characters fizzle out. It's a strange thing. But I get it, even if the siblings doesn't obtain an...

Do you think everyone in the cast needs a fleshed out history and/or arc? I'm working on a story, and I figured one my leads should have twin, but I'm struggling to give said twin a decent character arc to give them an important presence to the world. Right now, it feels as though I can omit...

While true, but sometimes I feel there are some works that say it's sci-fi, but don't apply a science/tech behind it that could make it seem possible, so they don't explain it. Perhaps the term sci-fi means different things to others, but to me, it means the non-real world tech and science is...

Out of curiosity, does anyone else here apply real-life science and theories to stories within the sci-fi genre? I am currently researching the how meta powers would be possible in a modern Earth setting. Like for example, I read how telepathy could be possible via radio waves. The research...
