Given how often he's missing,

I suggest PO nominate a vice-chairman to the project or something.

OK, so I've talked about this on the old forums, and I've refrained from bringing it up again on NGA because I didn't want to make it a Big Deal™, and I was kind of hoping that someone would remember and point it out to people for me, but seeing as that's obviously never going to happen, I may as well just say it right here:

I'm a woman. Stop calling me he.

Thanks. Just wanted to get that out of the way.

TPzombieW and Shazzeh are the only real options here because they're the ones who've stepped up.

We should probably move any further discussion on the topic to a new thread. Metaboard maybe?

I started on the wizard forums with male pronouns so I have no idea how I got people to start using female ones. Probably my new name

Unabashedly off topic

Is the pink incident the one where people started adding pink dresses to their avatars? I remember that, I can't remember if I participated or not. I do remember I made my avatar a sheriff for a good while afterwords though...

Btw, are the colors split up between Frostwynd and Illpyre?

So, TP, you seem to sort of be guiding flavor development. I think that Yxoque's suggestion that we divide into two teams and just... produce material en mass rather than waiting around for approval of each individual piece. I'm in, and it looks like you've got your other people, so... how do you want to divide things up?

We need to pin down the base creature types before dividing things up. I vote:

Characteristics:
G: Elves (plus small Treefolk, plants, saprolings, usual beasts)
W: Kithkin (plus some birds, elementals, maybe spirits?)
U: Vedalken (bleed white) (plus small elementals)
B: Zombies/Skeletons (plus... ugh, I don't know, what's good for small black filler creatures?)
R: Viashino (bleed green and black) (plus small elementals, maybe jackals, other random desert animals)
Midrange:
G: Treefolk and Yeti
W: Loxodons
U: Elementals? (plus Haints)
B: ???
R: Ogres (plus elementals, Haints)
Iconics:
G: Elder Land Wurms (plus antlions)
W: Angels
U: Sphinxes
B: Demons (plus antlions and sandwurms)
R: Phoenixes??

This gives us a wide range of sapient races: Humans, Kithkin, Vedalken, Viashino at characteristic tier, Loxodons, Treefolk, Yetis, and Ogres at midrange, and Elder Land Wurms (maybe), Angels, Sphinxes, and Demons at iconic tier. With these in place the individual teams can consider A. whether each race is present on their side and B. how those races exist on either side of the planet, how many subtribes there are, &c.

We also have this range of Planeswalkers currently:

Aloise Hartley in GWU
Gruff in R

Do we want a third Planeswalker native to Starstill?


Also, I think what you wrote for Makara is good, TP, but I think maybe we want to specify that out of the band of life circling the globe which is named Makara, the Makara Forest itself isn't the whole thing. That allows us to do a bit more with that region than we could otherwise.
