Technically, absolutely nothing at all. The only things stopping people are time to do stuff, materials to experiment with, and energy! Not everyone can find the opportunity in the world they live in. But that's the trick of it. The world that's been formed...by people.

What limitations did you put on your magic system to keep it from becoming too OP? Is power in short supply? Do spells take a physical toll on the body?
Note that this is about magic done RIGHT. Day 13 will be about when magic goes horribly wrong!

Yes, and it must, at all costs. Free will is the bedrock of the material world. Interesting to note: everything that happens to a person remains through reincarnations, little bits may carry over between lives, but nothing that would ever lead to any predetermination.

#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?

I took my novelette out of KU some time ago. It's ready to go wide, but I haven't had the capacity to upload it (because of an impending cover reveal). Hoping to put it on Itch. io quite soon though.
Thank you, Bill Adams, for showing me this review. Very pleased with some of the things mentioned here ☺️

Time to reveal some backstory for my favorite OC!
Veldandi’s 1st love was Palmer, an Aerivolk who swept her off her feet when they were 15. He even hinted at marriage.
Sadly, a cutting betrayal ended things. She eventually encounters him again after Osvald begins courting her.

You know, I'm kind of afraid of making decisions like this for these characters.
Both Chana and Mathias are older and are pretty far away from their first loves.
She's intense, even at a young age and would have burned through that first person or persons.
Mathias is more quiet and focused.

Who was your character's first love?
Was it a positive relationship for them or less so?
How did it end (if at all), and how did that affect them?

Grisira looks back on her first love fondly. It was 32 years ago (when she was 20), with a young woman who had originally been pining after Grisira's older brother. Grisira's charm and passion won her over, and they were together for about eight months. (1/2)

How does your character fight? Do they wield weapons? Magic? Are they a brawler? Or do they have a more sophisticated fighting style?
Or are they a pacifist who would never fight?

#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?

If you currently have Ring, disable it, uninstall it. Don't support this regime's quest to kidnap and assault everyone who doesn't look white enough or objects to the fascism. If you must have a security cam, it's not difficult to set up your own closed-circuit system that no one else can access.
NEW: Ring has introduced "Search Party", a horrifyingly dystopian feature nominally designed to turn all of the Ring cameras in a neighborhood into a dragnet that uses AI to look for, in their commercial, a cute lost dog.
With Ring, US consumers are actually building a surveillance dragnet.
