I have a character who is an albino. And it occurred to me today that in addition to her eye protection, she should have skin protection, too. So far, she just wears robes with a cowl and usually leaves the cowl up, which has the added benefit of hiding her appearance from others. (Albinos are considered soul-less by her people, and are often ( Read more... )

I run a dual-boot laptop between Windows and Ubuntu, though honestly I only use the Windows side once every few months ( Read more... )

In my Lyria fantasy universe, I love mocking popular tropes. A recent episode of Game of Thrones inspired me to mock the White Savior trope. I don't have any ideas about how to do it, though. So if anyone has any ideas they'd like to run by me, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance ( Read more... )

I have a humanoid species, the Ah'Koi Bahnis, that I've been trying to think of unique instruments and/or musical styles for them for ages. So far all I have is a kind of choral singing that I don't think humans have done yet, and one other instrument that may or may not be a dud ( Read more... )

I went out on a walk earlier, to think about things regarding the Lyria-verse. And among other things, worked out a problem that had been bugging me. Dralakkith has a rainy winter, like Portland. But there was a country between them and the ocean, and Dralakkith is a country about the size of Germany. But today I figured out, the country between ( Read more... )

Over ten years ago, I started to create the Trai'Pahg'Nan'Nog language, a trade language for my Traipah culture that is supposed to be a conlang even in that universe. But I've encountered problems with it. The rules of the language are basically a mix of English and Spanish rules (mostly English), and I started coming up with words in some really ( Read more... )

I finally, after over 10 years of looking, stumbled on some low quality versions of some songs from a cassette I used to own. But neither contains song information. Please take a listen to see if you recognize them. I think they're from South Korea. The exchange student who gave me the cassette was from there ( Read more... )
