Re: Writing Prompts
And by the way, Deinar doesn't have seasons. Insider: The Loroi Sister Worlds Deinar has minimal axial tilt, and therefore not much seasonal change. Not much isn't none, and it refers to seasonal change in the context of tilt alone, which is the sole driver on Earth. However, given that the primary...

Re: Writing Prompts
Continuation of New Frontiers After Argent had dressed her down, Firebrand had seethed. Yet now? Now she felt triumphant. If Argent had wanted for the diral to treat the alien the same as they would a Loroi, then she had erred badly in breaking with taboo and eating in his sight. All her insults an...

Re: Writing Prompts
Nice work, I think I'll follow that up with a little brewing dissent in New Frontiers.

Re: Writing Prompts
@novius Ha! I had thought to leave Nathan on a similar cliffhanger back in his cabin, if just to see how someone would pull things back from the brink. Also, I just now realize that I had confused Tin and Argent for different people. So I may have to go back and edit my piece so that it doesn't soun...

Re: Writing Prompts
Continuation of New Frontiers The sounds of a busy hunting camp setting up filtered through the air, as the new arrivals to Nathan's little clearing wordlessly prepare lean-to shelters against the sides of his cabin. All without so much as a single hushed voice to coordinate. Standing around half-t...

Warringrose none of this is canon, it's all an exercise in storytelling by readers.

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
Sounds familiar, lol. I'm quite sure I've no idea what you could ever possibly mean. Clearly this is just another miscellaneous group of questions about the Loroi. :lol: I figure there's the diral leader's knife, but that the various worlds have their own additions. Water conservation gear for arid...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
A few questions about traditional Loroi dirals on Deinar. What kind of tools are dirals equipped with, so that they may fashion shelters and other tools? Saws, axes, multipurpose knives, hammers? What about labor intensive things that a group cast into a wilderness environment would have trouble cre...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
Do the Loroi have tank or artillery equivalents? Has telepathy shaped their mechanized ground weaponry in any particularly different ways compared to human examples?

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
Is it typical of the Loroi to autopsy alien corpses at their first opportunity to do so with a species? Or do they generally seek to obtain biological information through trade?

Re: More Page 88 speculation
Consequently and in my opinion, a hive mind should appear like a large concentration of individual minds located in a volume of space and should be indistinguishable from regular minds, at least without in-depth analysis. Ah, but farsensing detects consciousness or some intrinsic quality of sentien...

Re: More Page 88 speculation
Kind of makes me wonder how a hive-mind would appear to a farseer. As a bonfire? A diffuse glow? As many lights all flickering in unison?

Re: Page 133: "Will you permit it?"
Personally, I like this much more than comics with more mature ratings, because many authors there use these as an excuse to freely go with heavy action - be it sexual situations or gore - unrelated to the plot. I'd play devil's advocate and argue that the choice of having a plot secondary to the c...

Re: Page 133: "Will you permit it?"
I'm curious to see if Beryl has a similar presence as Fireblade, or whether her experimentation will be a little too timid to create a mental image.

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
No, I mean poisonous, not venomous. Just an odd thought.
Also, was that a dodge of the question about Humans being poisonous to Loroi?

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
Are the Loroi poisonous?
With regard to Earth biology, the norm is that a blue tongue is an indicator that the creature is poisonous, or mimicking a poisonous animal's coloration.
For that matter, would humans be poisonous to Loroi?
