Doing my first ever temperature chart. This fabric is so much darker than the pic gives credit for and it's so hard to find the stupid holes. But I'm liking how it's coming so far and felt like sharing since we have survived 6 weeks of 2026 so far.

Souls are a THING. A few times they're forcibly removed from a living body and put back in. But generally, the body has to burn to release the soul, it goes to the death god who cleans them and gets them ready to go into a new vessel. some are blended with the soul of a god

#FebruaryWorldbuilders. Are souls real in your world? Does anything happen to them after a person dies? Or, whether or not they know the truth, do your characters have any beliefs about that? Does your world's religion preach anything about souls?

I think i have a vaguest of vague shadow of them and they just form around it. When I wrote Tibi, i wanted a young girl with a good heart that just happened to always get into trouble. Didn't realize she'd be so excitable.

Yourself? Fictional characters? People you know or celebrities? It just comes to you?
Has someone you've met ever reminded you of your character?

got my 15 year anniversary gift from work today. it's a milk frother/hot chocolate maker. I had fancy chocolate shavings from Ethel M's stashed away and thought this was the best time to use something snazzy in my fancy machine. A+ hot chocolate and now I'm ready for bed.

no vibe, but "aura" instead! Yatzil can read the "love" aura of people - the type of love and how strong it is.

Bwahahaha! Loke and Magnar fight ALL THE TIME about EVERYTHING. most of it is because Loke's being reckless and Magnar wants to keep her alive. He can't get paid if she dies! but they will 💯squabble over everything just to be petty with each other.

What is something your character and the person closest to them fight about?
Is one side clearly in the right, or is it ambiguous?
How do they resolve their dispute? Or do they?

There are 2 major religions. If you follow my group, you'll see one is more correct than the other. For them, they are big believers in fate and while there are things you think you are deciding, what is meant to be will eventually happen. Fate doesn't care about little things. Just major points.
#FebruaryWorldbuilders Does free will exist in your world? If you have any kind of prophecy, fortune-telling, soulmates, or destiny in your stories, how are these reconciled along with the idea of free will? Do your characters have any beliefs on the matter?

Loke never really "fell in love." It could be read that she's somewhere on the aro/ace spectrum. She does love her family, but none of it's terribly romantically.
Magnar fell in love at 8 years old with a girl with a forlorn expression he wanted to make smile one day.

Not entirely psychic abilities. But the one religion believes heavily in fate so fortune telling is popular. Those with the talent can be accurate with what they find.

#FebruaryWorldbuilders, good morning! Are prophecies or psychic abilities real in your world? How do they affect the world? Tomorrow I will ask about free will, so if you have prophecies, think about how that influences whether free will exists or not, and have an answer tomorrow😁

Balan will want to be a participant in ALL OF IT, but he'd probably win it all because *reasons*, so he's gotta just watch all of it.
Curling is more Loke's pace and Kal would probably join her since it's fairly mild and low key.

to access the godspace, you'd have to be a god. and a god in mortal form basically dissociates on the outside while their subconscious mind can go in and meander around and communicate. A person on the outside may look bored or like they're taking a snooze.

#FebruaryWorldbuilders If you have nonphysical realms in your setting, how can they be accessed? Can characters go there or somehow 'see' inside it? Does something else live there and come out when summoned?

in the 2nd book, Loke tries to sneak away from her current residence to go back to her old one (she still owns). It's quiet and full of books.
Kal loves the beach, especially at night (when he's at the manor). He likes the silence and waves crashing
