Suggestions and questions.

[JennyDK]

You may give any suggestions for the club here as well as ask any questions you find relevant. I will do my best to try and follow up on good suggestions.

[Question]

 

Is pretty much any fantasy species allowed or is there any restrictions?

[JennyDK]

What did you have in mind?

[Kitsuyumia]

Like a dragon human hybrid. Similar to dragonkin but with more humanoid like appearance.

[JennyDK]

I am not too fond of hybrids, I must admit. I would prefer feral dragons.

[Kitsuyumia]

Well not really hybrid im just not exactly sure how to explain it.

[JennyDK]

Can you show me the reference image, if there is any?

[Kitsuyumia]

Like what is show here at this link.

Where its a dragon kin but with more humanoid features rather than being like an anthro dragon.

[JennyDK]

So it was a hybrid. While not a huge fan, I suppose you can use it.

I was debating if I should disallow furries. For now, I am keeping it fairly open.

[Kitsuyumia]

Well if you dont want that then I can use something else. Tbh I was just curious. I guess i just would lile to know what would be the options available.

 

How about drow and fey elves would they be possible to have?

Something closer to what they look like monster-wise seems to be better in my opinion.

I try to be open about what members may want to play as, hopefully without too many restrictions.

[Kitsuyumia]

Oh this is a monster rp as well? I didnt see anything specifiying that but i might have missed it.

[JennyDK]

No. You can also play elves, humans and other fantasy races. Nowhere does it say you need to play a monster. My monster academy is full of humans too. None of my clubs require you to just play monsters.

[Kitsuyumia]

Ah okay i was confused for a moment.

[JennyDK]

No problem.

I did put down a restriction about hybrids, just to avoid the annoying and typical tendency to mix races a lot.

So, I will post a warning here that some of these questions are partly assumptions.

The first thing I was wondering is whether Etheria would be classified as a continent or the entire world itself is Etheria?  Like, for example, in the Trails series, Zemuria is a continent, but the games take place in different parts of the Zemurian continent, like Liberl, Crossbell State, the Erebonian Empire, the Calvard Republic, and so on.  Part of the reason I'm asking this is because of the mountain range.  If Etheria is classified as the entire world and not just a massive country/continent, why would a natural border like a mountain range be classified as a border?

Next is a very specific part of the first sentence of the description.  Particularly this part.

Quote

is an overall peaceful and tranquil place where species of many sorts of live together in relative peace and order.

Wouldn't "relative peace" imply that things aren't all sunshine and rainbows?  Because if things were totally peaceful, there's be no need for guard patrols outside the capitol, right?  Hostile monsters (specificlly in places not normally inhabited or beyond the mountain range), corruption in the upper class, magical experimentation on humans for the sake of "research."  A place that seems kind and peaceful always has it's darker corners that can't easily be swept away.  Pushed under the rug and hidden away from polite society, yes, but not possible to totally erase.

Part of my reason for my first question was that I was planning on making a sort of "fish out of water" character.  An outsider from Etheria who came from a place where conflict was far more common and isn't totally used to the (relative) peace that Etheria has.

 

For now, I think that's all I've got for questions.

[JennyDK]

Trails series? I have no idea what that is. As the name hopefully suggests, Etheria is just the country this takes place in. I don't want to do what I did with Tales of Valnis and stretch into a huge world.

There will always be minor issues, like gangs trying to make trouble, cults who might have evil plans and such things, but nothing huge and major like wars and the like is going on. You can never have total peace and even in peaceful times you still have security.

It sounds like a great concept and I hope to see how it turns out soon! I will definitely want to play along them if I can.

I actually come with another question, partly for reference and party as a potential start point.  What is the general currency in Etheria?

Just to make it as easy as possible: Gold coins.
