Utopia
5 years ago
I have reuploaded the vast majority of my characters drawn by some wonderful artists as well as the stories I had posted on the other channel. I still have a few things left to do, so I am currently working on those. One benefit of rereading and doublechecking my stories to make sure I am labeling them correctly for the correct audiences is some of the things I utilized I can utilize again. Generic words used for certain accents, since I do not wish to use our countries and our world, but we have a bunch of wondrous accents. So, as I figure such things out, I will make a list of the accents I am aware of and what they will be referred to in Utopia.
Also, Utopia will be the world or land, not the city. The city will merely be a place. And, again, Utopia is likely a stand-in until I think of something better. Lush countrysides, large coniferous forests, a vast desert, open tundra...all different kinds of biomes. The big city itself will be centered in a more temperate climate, probably near a mountain and with a bunch of trees next to an inland ocean. A lot of my inspiration will come from Australian cities, and the vehicles will in fact be right hand drive.
Also, most made up species like sergals and kobolds will largely not be present, same with digimon or pokemon. At least for the time being. Going to start with realistic animals as my anthrokin base with dragons making the ruling class and the drakes (dragon and anthrokin hybrids) making up the ruling political class. Others like unicorns, pegasi, minotaurs, and other such creatures will have their own place and have some basis on more humanoid mythical races. Magic will exist, but it will be a minor thing outside of certain regions. Taurs and nagas will also exist and have their own racial traits as well as certain rules.
Starting next Wednesday, I will begin working on the first wave of bios. That's the plan. Anyone that wishes to have a character in Utopia, you'll need a base bio. Once I create the first, you'll know the standard. It'll just be a base set of features and a description that paints a mental image. The thumbnail will be the car that they drive. I have several ways I may utilize the writing of the bio, and Google will be where I draw the cars from. Living in the US, I have access to cars here....and not all cars are common, plus they are left hand drive. So, Google and images not my own but used to serve a purpose and create a general image of what the character drives. I will start with a certain number, and I will constantly increase that number. Each individual in the city will get a base bio, but not every individual will get a story.
My intent is to make this a community, create role plays, maybe create a general story idea as the city evolves, as the land changes, as a threat looms. Some of you may know of the artist and writer
laurenrivers. They've done a few little stories with a cast of characters, both human and anthro. They had their own setting and their own ideas and plots. This is mine. I want to give more to the world and bring it to life. I want it populated with a wide range of characters, giving me the option of little groups to choose for certain arcs. Some may intertwine.
It's a big project. A few of the friends I have on Discord and in a Twitch group are interested in taking part. One is even offering support. I was only interested in gaining potentially a few community members.
And, for right now, it will stay here on Furaffinity. But, I may have to move SOME aspects to Discord since it makes for a better community platform. There will be rules in place. Breaking them....well, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
