Here's a thought--how would you fellows feel about a Diaemus wiki to hold all of our lore?

 

The Reckoners RPG has a wiki, and it would be a simple matter for me to set one up for Diaemus. Wikis are, by their very nature, far easier to organize and administrate than linked collection of forum threads. We could discuss the project here, and use the wiki for cataloging information and potentially stories in the future.

I think this is an excellent idea.

I like it

Diaemus Wiki is now up. It's terribly basic right now, but it'll give us a repository of sorts.

 

And I see you're already busy making pages.  ^_^ Thanks. This is a much better solution than having a separate thread for holding information.

Thanks for making a Nixos page!

 

Now for some animals: 

 

Shockback (Pacifos Mortifero): 

 

Located in the Asohos region, this large gentle creature roams around, eating grass and leaves. A Shockback is about 13 feet long and weighs 4,000 lbs. They have a dullish brown mixed with forest green skin and and a large head with a prominent snout. Like I said, they are mostly vegetarians, and eat grass and hedges. 

 

Shockbacks travel in herds spread over several miles, but they gather in a home nest, usually dug out by them. The children stay in the nests while the males and females gather food. Every full moon, the Shockbacks pack up and travel to find a new nest. They will travel as far as they need to go in Asohos to find a nest. 

 

How do Shockbacks use lumoles? In the pores of their bodies colonies of electricity lumoles reside. On command, Shockbacks can release an EMP like blast for show and protection against smaller predators. This blast can stop smaller animals hearts. 

 

The Shockback are hunted by the Nixos for their skin and meat, so the population is thinning out, only about 20,000 Shockbacks live in Asohos Region.

No problem. Thank you and Venture for adding your own stuff! :) Currently trying to get infoboxes in working order. This would be a lot easier if I had the slightest understanding of coding.

 

 

Cool creature, Venture! Are they mammals or dinosaurs? Either way, they're now added to the wiki.

 

 

TwiLyght, would the Fire Drulgas have a traditional name for the tundra? I need a name for the wiki article, but I can't seem to think of anything. :mellow:

They are mammals. I am going to edit the wiki and my post now for more info on Shockbacks.

 Great! I have something!

 

Jackblade ( etaos hurahun) 

 

Jackblades are small, fast predators that eat small game. About 2 feet long, with 6 legs and black fur, they are pretty terrifying. They have sharp, tough teeth and are extremely fast. They hunt in packs, preying on lone animals such as the Verbolta (later) . 

 

Jackblades do not use lumoles. 

 

Going to edit this later for more info.

I think the wiki should be a strictly 'canon information only' section, so all speculation goes on biology, maps and cartography, and here. Is that right, Kobold?

I meant to ask this before, but forgot. What are the rules for adding out of universe data? E.g. saying who 'owns' a region, character, etc.

 

@Winter: I've posted the Scorpia image, and will get to the rest tomorrow or Sunday.

I think if you create it, you own it.

I'm still working on this... Ish. End of term is killing my soul, though, not to mention auditions for the school musical are the Monday right after term ends... :(

 

I hope to return to this project after end of term. Although, if I make the musical, that means life will quickly get very busy again. We shall see.

Really? What musical?

 

On a more relevant note, I too shall be able to start working more vigorously in November (the first time ever that I can remember being less busy during NaNoWriMo Month.) In the mean time, school exams are keeping me at bay.

We're doing Pippin. I say we, but whether I'm actually going to be involved remains to be seen...

Seems everyone got busy all at once, but hopefully that doesn't spell the death of this project.

6 exams and 4 concerts done (in 4 days!). Barring one exam on Monday, I now have heaps of time to dedicate to Diaemus (well, my NaNoWriMo project as well. But that's fine. They can share.)
