That richness is part of what attracted met to Torn World, but I can understand people finding it a bit daunting.

I hope you'll stop in and write something to one of our weekly prompts. No pressure to be canon, just to have Torn World inspiration.

No need to be fiction either--poetry and art are welcome!

You would also be welcome to design a carion-eater for Torn World, and submit it to our current contest. The canon board can figure out where it would fit into the ecology!
