Feral Fridays 2023 | Diamond-Minded Communications
Sorry it's hard to talk when I'm foaming at the mouth. I can't help it, these articles are just so delicious!We, as writers, sure are familiar with the world of communication. We sort of do it all the time! But how often do we think about communication in our worlds, I wonder? SummerCamp gave us a golden (or, I suppose, diamond?) opportunity to explore that subject with a fine selection of prompts, and so I present to you a fine selection of articles responding to them! Can you believe this is the last Feral Friday of the season? My, how time flies!
Camp Feral Badge by Strixxline
Sword Maiden
by CrazyEddie
How can one resist a woman in armor? I certainly can't. This article gives us an in depth look at some of the badass ladies of Koria, and the way they come to take up this mantle.
Threebl's Inspiration
by Moonlight Bard
Superstitious as sailors are, it's always a delight to hear about the sillier stories of hijinks on the seas. What better way to ward off attackers than with spooky ghoooooosts?
Mirrorsign
by MelissaPlaysRPGs
Common forms of communication can sometimes come with major drawbacks, especially when they can be exploited by darker forces. These mirrors may be banned, but they're not all gone...
Phantom Touch
by DreamCartographer
Communication through touch is interesting on its own, but seeing all of the ways one can tweak and customize this message sending method is really cool! Give me one of those tattoos!
Haunted
by ThatMomFriend
Do the spirits in your world sometimes stick around a while, maybe picking the living as buddies? As it turns out, people in different realms have different opinions about what that means!
Psynplexion
by Quisi
Psionic abilities and their curiosities, and the interesting ways their absence manifests itself in this world! It's always fun to see those who lack special abilities, being immune to them as well.
Mirrorhead Trout
by Stormbril
How could Stormbril give me these creatures, only to tell me that their numbers are dwindling? Another delightful display of CSS shenanigans, with buttons I could play with for hours!
Miss Royenne
by AmélieIS
Have you ever read worldbuilding in the style of a tabloid magazine? It's amazing what you can learn about a world from something as simple as a fashion and lifestyle critique!
Seven Wonders of the Post-Apocalyptic World
by eccbooks
Such a sweet tradition, to honor the tier list pulled from the journal of a beloved life lost, no matter how much time passes, or how many new monuments rise across the world.
Glamorous Peafowl
by Mochimanoban
Reading this article was like looking into a mirror in a way! I, too, go AAAAAAAAAAAAA when I am stressed. I certainly did, during the final moments of SummerCamp! What lovely creatures!
The Lords Calling
by Ninodonlord
Creating worlds means sometimes facing the heartbreak of the people within them, and this article dives into a scene that paints one such experience, with the dreaded knock at the door.
Mr. Shadow
by kitoypoy
This article leaves me with so many delightful questions, all spawning from intrigue! Such an enigmatic character, with such a fun involvement in the game table! Karaoke night!
Tio Patchfur
by StaticStar1
Beings of pure chaos and destruction come in so many forms, but I wasn't expecting tomato! He's sweeter than he seems, such a shame he simply doesn't know better!
The Lucky Ducky Letter Exchange
by drunkenpanda951
In the wise words of Tillerz: "Ducks for the win :)" — This delightful communication network made for a wonderful read, and I only wish I could have a parade of duckies delivering my mail.
Nisora United
by Those2Nerds
In this house, we stand in solidarity with unions! A shame this one seems to have suffered so many setbacks. Will they recover? What comes next? And who are the Gal Pals?!
Cassius Roman
by Kat Chiron
True mystery in a character adds so many questions to the mind. Who is this man, and what does he really want? What is his weakness? So many great questions to build with.
Dragon Sun Library
by CrazyEddie
Hey! Another article from Eddie! We simply had to feature this one, as it meant that we'd have coverage of every prompt from the wave in this week's showcase! Take care of those books.
