Joyous. A world building thread.
My first comment for the Robot Apocaliptic Story is about plot, so I'll ask that later in the post. For your world, what is the level of space travel? Are any other planets populated? What level of wild life is on Earth? Do the Robots care about deer and trees, or has life that doesn't support industry been wiped out? Are the robots the basic box and wire sort, or were they designed to look like humans? If they do look like humans, do they have metallic bodies or some sort of nano-tech biology stuff that allows robots to have an exterior that feels like skin, but is manufactured?
PLOT question time!: Do the robots' still hate humans, and do the humans' still hate robots?
For my main RPG world I will describe the Roland Saga. (This would has multiple stories over multiple time periods).
For today's post I'll sum up the shape of the land. Let's see... the best way to describe the lay of the land would be to find a comparable land mass here.
Think Southern Europe and Africa. Africa is home to the High King Nations which are at war with Sol. Sol started out on an Island like Madagascar, but the island would be at the tail of Africa--not the side. However, Sol has grown into a trade Empire and the War isn't going so well for the High King Nations (who started the war).
The Middle East Region is occupied by Osta, and from the East to North-ish are peoples who's material culture is akin to traditional Arab/Islam. The land connecting Africa to the other continent doesn't lead to the Middle East, but heads strait up to...more around Italy. The Italy area is contolled by the Housewise Confederacy (most of whom settled from the High King Nations, but some are from Osta as well). North and West of Italy are people that you can akin to Lamanites/Native Americans/Amerindians/Indian/what ever those people should be called. (ADD Moment: what should "Native Americans" be called. Lots of people are Native to America). I could add in some Gaulic culture (Unless I errror, these people are those who populated the mainstay of Europe during Roman times). Spain area is also populated with Venishians, these are the American Indian Culture...I just forgot to mention their name, but they have been conquered by Iggarot. Iggarot can be found North of Spain (in this world land, not sea is north of Spain).
In the vague, but imminent future, I will start an account on a media site. Then I can show you the map I made.
