Lore Creation Forum Reopened With New Template

[Valiens Nantaris]

Hello all, and Happy New Year again.

The Lore Creation Forum has been reopened to new posts.

There is also a new template there. It is very important you read the following so you don't blunder in unwittingly.

The Fluff creation template allows you to canonise information about your species or planet submissions which either was unneeded for the original sub or which you have since created.

This includes, but is not limited to:

• Historical events before or during the board's time-frame. This includes timelines, genealogies, chronicles or ruler lists.
• Cultural, artistic or religious information.
• Profiles of important character who are either dead or not given an NPC submission of their own.
• Journals, prose or other IC material.
• Anything which relates to the background, description or elucidation of existing species or planet submissions.

You must be the original writer of the species or planet sub to post a Lore Submission about it!
The only exception to this is when the original creator posts in the submission to allow it.
This is an exception to the usual rules about posting in other people's submissions and only one post will be allowed.
These rules will be strongly enforced.

With this in mind, go and get creative!

I have a character these two would apply to, but the template may need more info I think

The template is a blank slate. Organise the 'Description' area in any way you wish, with whatever sub-headings seems good.

I will not and indeed cannot create a template for every possible variation. A quick count off the top of my head reveals I'd need at least two dozen templates and that's simply not worth the effort.

So yes, use your imagination with the template. Make the description area your own.

Okay then, thank you.

While I don't fully know how to use the Fluff section, I tried my very best.

The fluff is only intended to be used to add to existing species and planet submissions, not for any other purpose.

I will archive your thread.

Does this count for things already cannon? I ask because Iridonians (the warrior group, not the Zabrak) have basically nothing. Could I use this to flesh them out?

 

[Haruka Zanzamoto]

Ah, thanks for clarifying that for me

No, not as yet. That's significantly more tricky because it involves setting a standard all writers must follow, and I'm not happy doing that yet.

Maybe in time, but not for right now.
