#TheDragonblood: Dragons live in natural caves, that they decorate with gold that they make themselves from, among other things, the leftovers of their prey.

So, they don't collect the gold itself, but they collect things to turn to gold.
#JuneWorldbuilders, hello friends! Thinking about a specific creature/monster in your setting: What kind of "house" does it build or live in? Is it a natural, normal den like a cave or nest? or something more horrific and nightmarish? Does it have babies? Does it collect things?

#TheDragonblood: Stories of dragons predate the dragons. The Nemorians had a story about the slaying of Elluamvis, a giant serpent, by a hero named Perpunos.
Hello, #JuneWorldbuilders! What are some myths, stories, legends, old wives tales, whatever you want to call it... about a creature in your world? How accurate is it? Why was such a story invented in the first place?

#TheDragonblood: Dragons are apex predators. They mostly eat medium-sized animals, anything large enough to be worth their time but small enough to lift in flight.
#JuneWorldbuilders, good morning friends! For this one, pick a particular creature or monster in your world. Maybe an animal or nonhuman entity of some kind. What does this organism eat? How does it fit into its local food chain?

#TheDragonblood: Blackwing the pet Microraptor is a friendly companion! Okay, she does bite. But she's cute, and soft, and cuddly!
#JuneWorldbuilders, so this question is the opposite of yesterday's. Today, I'm asking if you have any friendly creatures in your world. Companion critters, pets, helpful spirits or entities, something that is friendly to your main characters

#TheDragonblood: Dragons and wyverns aren't universally enemies to the main characters, but a couple have been.
#JuneWorldbuilders, hello friends! Thinking about the creatures/monsters of your world in general, are there any which have been antagonistic to the main characters? Enemy monsters or pests of some kind?

#TheDragonblood: Dragons, as apex predators, control the populations of a variety of animals. I imagine tribes can only get so big before they could no longer sustain themselves, and they also tend to be spread out and have large hunting ranges.
#JuneWorldbuilders, think of a specific creature/monster in your fictional world. What role does it serve in its environment? What ecological niche does it fill? Is it an herbivore, is it preyed upon by other creatures, does it fertilize ground, or do some kind of magic that keeps nature in balance?

#TheDragonblood: I don't know, I guess I find the scary creatures cute? Well, more the fearsome ones than the eldritch horrors. Wolves, dragons, Velociraptors, they're all cuties, and I often forget that people view them with fear.
Welcome to a new week of #JuneWorldbuilders! This week we're talking about creatures and monsters in your fictional world. What counts as a creature? I dunno, you decide! Tell me: are your monsters the cute or scary kind? Or maybe the sexy kind?👀 Or all of the above?

#ThroughTheCracks: The rise in AI after the Third AI Winter brought about an art movement focused on doing it yourself by hand. Many old handicrafts were revived, such as hand-spinning, hand-stitching, basket weaving, paper making and blacksmithing.
#JuneWorldbuilders, last day of our meta-art discussion! Have there been any "movements" or "eras" for in-world art? Times when a particular style was developed or popularized?

#JuneWorldbuilders 12

#TheDragonblood: I mentioned Aimetor's sculpting yesterday, but they also do fashion design and artistic body modification, and they'll also take up acting. So Aimetor is an artist in many ways.
#JuneWorldbuilders, we've talked about the art, now tell me about some of your in-world artists themselves. Who were they? Why were they inspired to create what they did? And how have they been treated over the years?

#TheDragonblood: I hadn't specifically planned for Deiuoreks to ban art, say, depicting the Nemorian gods in unflattering ways, but he could be the type.

I'll need to think on it.

Gnaramater is goddess of knowledge.
#JuneWorldbuilders, hello! Talking about in-world fictional governments here: have they banned (or tried to ban) any works of in-world art? Why was it a threat to them? To expand the topic a bit more: have they banned any in-world instructional books?

#TheDragonblood: There is plenty of beautiful architecture in Nemoria. The temples of the gods are often pretty stunning, although Amfrobena prefers her temple to be very disorganised gardens, and Anamuortus's temples only exist virtually.
#JuneWorldbuilders, what other kinds of meta-art do you have in your setting that I didn't mention the last few days? Do you perhaps have any famous sculptures, architecture, or some form of art specific to your world? Tell me about it!

#TheDragonblood: Upon returning to the temple of Gnaramater after ending up with the ability to sense magic, Felix notices the temple emits a magical resonance that seems intentionally melodic.
#JuneWorldbuilders, good morning! Today's Meta-art question is for music! Does your fictional world have any in-world music? A famous ballad or opera, perhaps? Or something sung by the MC or their friends?

#TheDragonblood: An old version of parts of the Epic of Gilgamesh may have existed at the time the magical world split from our world.
Second day of my new "Meta-art" category for #JuneWorldbuilders! What famous works of literature exist within your fictional world? Do you have any "books within your book"? What are these books about? Why were they written? How has it impacted your MC?

Since it's June now, let's get started on these questions! I have nothing much that could be described as angels or demons in any of my current works (they might exist in #MiwwduSitsomSelkieWIP, but I have nothing developed), so let's go straight into Week 2.
Welcome to a new week of #JuneWorldbuilders, featuring brand-new questions! "Meta-art" is basically art that exists within your fictional world. This week, I'll ask about art inside your art! First: does your fictional world have famous paintings? What do they depict?

#JuneWorldbuilders
I'm kind of half-and-half honestly. I have a general idea of the worldbuilding at the start but I often find myself coming up with new ideas as I go. I certainly do end up making changes from time to time, but what writer doesn't?
#JuneWorldbuilders, tell me a bit more about your overall worldbuilding process. Did you pre-plan a bunch before writing? Or are you more of a "worldbuild as you go" sort of person? Maybe a mix of both, but was there something you planned before but changed along the way?

#JuneWorldbuilders
My sixth novel is more-or-less complete. I'm just waiting for the cover to be completed and for a friend to wrap up one final proof-read.
#JuneWorldbuilders, hey there, friends! It's the end of the month, so these questions are just to chill and check how we're doing. How are you feeling about your wip currently? Everything going well? Or are we having some problems?

There is a species of aquatic wolf native to Pou called the akhlut. They resemble wolves with sleek skin instead of fur, and possess finned tails and dorsal fins on their backs. They're typically found in the shallows near beaches, and prey upon various fish and even turtles.
#JuneWorldbuilders, good morning! For our last day on animals, tell me about an AQUATIC animal in your world! Got any cool fish? Anything else that may or may not count as a "fish" but still lives in the sea or a river and you want to talk about? 👀 I'll accept space whales, too!

#JuneWorldbuilders
As I've mentioned many times before, griffons exist in the would of Theryl. They're primarily found in Elux, and are most known for serving as mounts to the elite sky knights of the Eluxan army.
#JuneWorldbuilders, hello friends! Tell me about an animal in your world that can fly. Is it a bird? An insect? Something else entirely? I want to know👀
June 27, 2026 at 7:02 PM
#JuneWorldbuilders
In Pou, there is a species of giant, amphibious lizard called the mo'o. These beasts typically live in lakes and rarely leave their domains. They're known to be somewhat territorial, and become extremely aggressively if someone or something tries to drive them out of their home...
#JuneWorldbuilders, tell me about some reptiles or amphibians that exist in your world. Obviously, I'm looking for INTERESTING answers. I want to hear about unique animals to your world or animals that appear/are relevant to your story/setting.
June 27, 2026 at 3:05 PM
#JuneWorldbuilders
There are jackalopes in Theryl. Little bunnies with antlers. They're known for being extremely cowardly and very difficult to catch thanks to their unnatural speed. They tend to bolt in the presence of any large, unfamiliar creature.
#JuneWorldbuilders What are some cute animals in your world? Got any cute, fluffy or furry critters that may or may not be friendly? What's their deal? 👀
June 25, 2026 at 4:46 PM
#JuneWorldbuilders
I've got a few nocturnal animals in Theryl. One notable species is the ghostbird, known for its ethereal appearance as it seems to glide through the air rather than fly. Ghostbirds are mysterious creatures, as no one has ever been able to find their nests during the daytime...
Hello, #JuneWorldbuilder friends! This week is all about animals and I want to hear about them! Do you have any nocturnal animals in your world? Also, as always, whatever you want to "count as an animal" is what counts! I'm not gonna dictate what's what in your fantasy world😇
June 24, 2026 at 4:37 PM
#JuneWorldbuilders
Honestly, I think the best examples of megafauna in Theryl would be the sun and moon birds, Ruxima and Phela. Though they're more deities than animals that exist in any sort of food chain, the sacred birds are kinda crucial to maintaining the balance of day and night...
Hello, #JuneWorldbuilders! What kind of megafauna exist in your world? Tell me about a large animal 👀
June 24, 2026 at 12:35 AM
#JuneWorldbuilders
There are many fantastical beasts in Theryl, though whether or not most animals can be considered 'magical' in the context of the world is debatable. There is, however, a rare species of feline called the maneko which is said to have the power to bring good fortune...
Good morning, #JuneWorldbuilder friends! If you've been doing these since December, you'll recognize this week's animal q's! These were originally q's in Dec, but I'm moving them here so they won't be redundant to some other prompt games around that time.

Today's Q: Any magical animals?

In Dhesa, there are stories about beasts known as leshy that used to inhabit the land. They were said to be territorial and extremely aggressive, and some myths even claim that leshy would stalk the ruins of abandoned settlements.
Hello, #JuneWorldbuilders! What are some myths, stories, legends, old wives tales, whatever you want to call it... about a creature in your world? How accurate is it? Why was such a story invented in the first place?

Basilisks typically reside in subeterranean dens that they burrow form themselves. These dens are usually located fairly close to the surface but hidden from view unless you're actively looking for them. Basilisks will lay eggs here, as well as raise their offspring.
#JuneWorldbuilders, hello friends! Thinking about a specific creature/monster in your setting: What kind of "house" does it build or live in? Is it a natural, normal den like a cave or nest? or something more horrific and nightmarish? Does it have babies? Does it collect things?
