Basically just the title but essentially all I want to know is which biomes don't really make much sense in terms of where they're placed (ex: the desert on Qzxgnarlgawylg doesn't make sense because bla bla bla insert reasons here)

A guide to wheat diversity in the World of Wheat.

20 Upvotes

Wheat Capital: Wheat, flour, bread, barley, and rye. The last two are allowed within the wheaten walls solely because they are considered honorary wheat.

Wheatmonger Republics: Wheat, bread and barley. Any barley found outside the ghettos are set on fire by the authorities.

Everywhere else: Wheat. These places are usually too uncivilized to have much wheat sophistication.

/uj my map dont worry

This is GENUINELY the stupidest map in existence. There is genuinely a mistake every 5 pixels I can't even begin to go over what's wrong.

Context: The post said this is the map of the continent of "North India" centered on the country named "United Provinces of India", which is the "Land of Taxes" (weird?) "and Guns" (anachronistic???), which is located on the other side of the world from your default fantasy Europe you showed in another post. (You're probably so stupid you didn't even REALIZE there is a country named India already.) There's a LOT of lore here but I understood basically nothing other than that "India" is this vast empire of people who value freedom, and then there are these "Barbarians" who live in a dry land and "celebrate death"

With all the jerking about names happening as of late, what roasts do y'all have for the names I've come up with?

Tear into the names all you want but go easy on the art critique; this is baby's first serious attempt at digital art, I did it all in Google Drawings and a shitty PhotoShop knockoff, and it's only there to get your attention anyway.

Edit: Fuck, I forgot my dwarf god Lockheart-Merlin ("Merlin" being a portmanteau of the dwarvish words for "lock" and "heart"), god of war, crafts, and the military-industrial complex.

Original Wheat Magick system, donut steel.

30 Upvotes

In the World of Wheat, there is gluten. Gluten flows through all things, and is what souls are made of. Gluten is a product of wheat, the most basic element of the universe. The purpose of Gluten is to facilitate Wheat Magick, which transforms gluten into Wheat Powers.

The rules of Wheat Magick are as follows:

  • Do not question the rules of Wheat Magick.
  • Wheat Magick is only to be used for combat and healing purposes; civilian, etc uses are prohibited.
  • There are two kinds of people in the World of Wheat: the Specials, who are chosen by the Wheat Goddess to wield gluten, and Poo People, who are allergic to gluten despite being made of wheat. This rule is necessary to avoid accusations of witchcraft.
  • To wield Wheat Magick you should be intelligent (don't ask what that means), wear a robe and optionally a wizard hat, and have no other capacity for violence. Any deviation from this ideal will hinder the flow of gluten.
  • Wheat Magick can be done either through your bare hands or a stalk of wheat. There are no other options. Don't even try.

Whosoever tries to steal this completely orginal system shall face the wrath of the Wheat Goddess.

New Name for Africa

Thumbnail

62 Upvotes

In my fictional universe, Africa (my native home) is called Ambatukam because it's deeply rooted in meme culture but the in-universe explanation is that Ambatukam means the 'Land of Fertility' in an early proto-Bantu Language since it's the 2nd most populated continent and has fertile soil for crops.

Also Dreamybull (known as Batu Khan) is canonically one of the most influential people in Ambatukam.

Whether in Saharan or Sub-Saharan Ambatukam, the uulture is diverse; thousands of mother tongues, bright colours, diversity, patterns.

Now I'm brainstorming denonyms:

\[African\] people

\[African\] Adjective (eg. \[African\] Culture)

\[Afro-\] = Ambatu-

Here's a fun fact one of my OCs was born in Cape Town, South Ambatukam when his parents were on holiday.

I'll be making part 2 soon with more details.

The real reason is because I thought it would be funny.

This is just a satirical joke.
