If you have questions about why we're pricing our tiers the way we are, please ask away!

Some explanations have great rationale, while others are sticking a finger in the air and guessing which way the wind is blowing.

But I promise I'll tell you which is which.

We're continuing our #WeekofWorldbuilding with today's focus on Anthropology. What are the cultures and ancestries who most prominently shape the region we're focused on.

But first, we needed to decide on a region! Looks like the Southern Archipelago. Come join in the fun and help build a world!

Week of Worldbuilding typography with purple tome. The story so far. The creator gods forever changed the cosmos in their brutal war in which none of them survived. Our planet, scarred from their war, has somehow gained sentience and is nudging its inhabitants toward an awakening. The land is comprised of many smaller continents and larger islands. Some are full of temperate forests. Of note, there is a prismatic, yet stark, polar region to the north; a maze-like shrubland in the eastern hemisphere, with mobile foliage and confusing landscapes; and an archipelago to the south, complete with a tidal leviathan. In more recent years, individuals have been drawn to particular sites of power scattered across the planet, now worshiping natural forces as their new gods. These universal laws are given shrines. This is where our worldbuilding continues...

We're continuing our #WeekofWorldbuilding today with Biology! @wobblerocket.com is leading the charge.

But first, a recap.

Week of Worldbuilding typography with purple tome. The story so far. The creator gods forever changed the cosmos in their brutal war. In the end, none of them survived. Our particular planet, once the site of some long-forgotten battle of interstellar deities, has somehow gained sentience and begun awakening some of its inhabitants to ascend beyond their dying civilizations, nudging them toward greater sentience. The land is comprised of many smaller continents and larger islands. Some are full of temperate forests. Others are stark polar landscapes, ravaged coastlines, and harsh deserts. In more recent years, individuals have been drawn to particular sites of power scattered across the planet, now worshiping natural forces as their new gods. These universal laws are given shrines. This is where our worldbuilding continues...

Been missing out on the #WeekofWorldbuilding? Never fear, let's catch you up! Follow along with @stonehomegames.com as we pick up the tale today with Geography.

We're zooming past the Origin of the Universe. Today we begin the Origin of the World!
Week of Worldbuilding typography with purple book. The story so far. The first gods, after arranging the entire universe, fell into chaos and war. Entire worlds were destroyed or forever changed. In the end, none of them survived. Our particular planet, once the site of some long-forgotten battle of interstellar deities, now sits at the center of of some yet-to-be-determined story arc. It’s comprised of many temperate forests trying to flourish amidst dying civilizations. In more recent years, inhabitants have been drawn to particular sites of power scattered across the planet, choosing to venerate and even worship varied natural forces as their new gods. Concepts are now personified. Universal laws are given shrines. This is where our worldbuilding continues...

Ok, this got juicy. Animism wins out right at the end!

So we're sticking with our original premise from our creation mythos. The gods really did kill themselves off. What civilizations are left with now are the residual power and vague interpretations of what those deities may have represented.

In our Theology day of #WeekofWorldbuilding the people have spoken!

Gods are formed of the natural forces that govern the universe. They are a necessary element of universal law that takes on conscious form to ensure the smooth functioning of time and space.

But what does that mean, exactly?

It's a tie, so we're going with uhhhh... Cosmic Tinkerer. This gives us plenty of wiggle room moving forward to decide some other fun aspects about who these gods are and what they're hoping to accomplish.

We continue our #WeekofWorldbuilding with a look at Theology. How the universe came into existence should have already set you on the path toward what comes next, so let's codify that a bit.

But for anyone who's forgotten already, a primer on what we're working with from Cosmology yesterday.

Week of Worldbuilding typography. The story so far. Among the innumerable first gods rivalry, ambition, and defiance burned brightly. Their war turned stars to ash. Their battles shattered the firmament. In the end, none survived. There was no victor. This world remains, not because it was meant to, but because it was overlooked—a battlefield turned into a home, a fragment left behind. The gods are gone, their war long ended. Yet some still search the heavens, waiting for the day when their names are spoken once more. Amidst an aging yellow star beginning to transition to a red giant, 2 of its outer planets remain temperate and habitable, one with dense forests and dying civilizations. This is where our worldbuilding continues...

Meanwhile, Lauren Boebert of Colorado was ignoring the fact that there was a school shooting in her own state at the same time.

They weren't contributing to campaign donations or re-elections. So, fuck them kids, I guess.
