[OOC] Exile: A Sci-Fi RP On an Untamed World

[Dinh AaronMk]

Now I feel like I should mention giant caves in the back of the Kangchai mines. The sort of stuff that's considered too hazardous for them to pursue as a source of profit or exploration.

When writing about them you should attend to how their biological differences would effect their culture. This is a better approach than copying Earth cultures would be, because whereas copying earth cultures is easy what you will end up with will be pretty nooby.

...Yeah. This sort of approach to world building and species design? You don't see this too often in the Nation Roleplay section of the forum. Personally, I feel that this is a bad thing.

I'm unsure what it is about some of the people there, but they often react aggressively (at least from my own experience) to sapient creatures that don't subscribe fully, if at all, to the human psychological model---though I've found that these negative reactions general surface when wars start cropping up. I guess armchair generals don't like thinking outside the box when they're faced with something that basically rewrites infantry combat on a massive scale.

At any rate, I'm happy to see this much thought put into an alien species. Having been exposed to so many human copy-cat alien civilizations, I kind of assumed the Tkrai were just another bat-human knockoff.

Glad I was wrong.

Oh and if it hasn't been mentioned already, Timbeross has enslaved hundreds of Tkria and I'm currently working on a slave revolt/angry Tkria tribes thingy.

Yeah, I'll start a post now.

[Isotope]

In that same vein the EO is also in on legal slavery.

In any case I may get a post out tomorrow or the day after, nice to see you here ASTA.

You can take a man to Precipice but you can't make him post.

[Isotope]

Gah, ok this is getting unreasonable.

I am going to put aside some time today and force myself to post.

[TheEvanCat]

I have half a post in my post garage.

[Chapatrap]

Has this seriously died?

[Dinh AaronMk]

I've just been preoccupied.

[Isotope]

I have similarly been both busy and suffering a case of 'omg my writing sucks right now"

[Vilageidiotx]

I don't think its dead.

[Dinh AaronMk]

I posted. Therefore: alive.

This is just a PoW-brand RP. It slumbers.
