Aamir: plays Go with his mother, but he always loses. And she's the only person he knows that'll okay with him.

Alessa: Strip Yahtzee.

Maybe Gale should play Tsuro of the seas.

Depends entirely on what the most fun result would be

I think she may aim for a draw, or a tie between her and the largest number of people...

How would you even play strip Yahtzee? Do you play a full round of Yahtzee and then remove one article of clothing? Sounds like a slow way to undress.

Maybe you take an article off for every six you see?
Probably a lot of variations involved.

Alessa: "You roll, and then remove an article of clothing for every pip you see on the dice. It's not a very long game, but it usually leads to a longer one." ;)

Favorite drink(s)?

If not already included in the previous answer: tea, coffee, energy drinks or none?

Aerik: Normally the tea his wife drank, but hot chocolate when he's with his niece.
Alessa: a big glass of frosty milk.
The Shifter: the most expensive alcohol you've got, charged to Raiker Venn.
Aamir: elven green tea.
Maral: Beer, lots and lots of beer. A pale ale most especially.
The Duchess: Water. She can afford the most expensive libations known to man, but they give her no joy.
Raef: Apple cider. The neighbors farm had an orchard and every spring they'd have their cider ready.
Zhiran: a unique tea blend made from the leaves from four different worlds. With honey and cinnamon and a twist of lemon.
Antony: Wyrmwood Dryad Absinthe

Tryst: Mead, in strictest moderation.

Some very important questions that every fantasy plane has to answer, from the possibly disturbed genius behind Deep Carbon Observatory:

  • How does physics work in this world?
    What makes the planets stay up? Are there planets? Is it elves? Can I play an elf from another planet? Does everything work like how we though it did in the past? Can I discover stuff and pass it off as a magic? Is possible to use the scientific process to organise the concepts of magic?
  • Is there reverse fire?
    What about reverse water or earth? What do they wear there?
  • What cultures approve of cannibalism?
    What about if we are super rich? Aren't rich cannibals be default , I mean if you think about it? How is the class struggle here anyway? Is there a Karl Marx? How receptive are people to the ideas of anarcho-syndicalism here?
  • Is there weaponized Squid?
    Can I start with one? How much are they? Can I have one as a pet/horse/best friend? Can I play one? Can I dual wield them?

A fantasy world is not complete until these question can be answered.

I'm gonna answer for Thamirelk :V Keep in mind, the dossier isn't 100% finished and if someone wants to supply answers (or expansions) for it I'm not gonna complain:

As our own physics, until magic is involved
I'd argue with "up", yes, hell naw, if planebound it probably ended up in the Wastelands for some weird reason, no like modern science mostly, of course you can lie, I love magic as an extension of natural laws but more bound to ideas and meaning so hell yes.

Quote:
Is there reverse fire?
What about reverse water or earth? What do they wear there?

Ice magic works a bit like that
I regrettably didn't investigate negative elements (yet), but if they exist they are a force more than a place.

Quote:

What about if we are super rich? Aren't rich cannibals be default, I mean if you think about it? How is the class struggle here anyway? Is there a Karl Marx? How receptive are people to the ideas of anarcho-syndicalism here?

The Burnspine viashino approves of everything helping the viashino race survive, but doesn't encourage cannibalism - intended as eating one's own species, eating other humanoids is emergency food but commonplace food nonetheless. In the Hammat slice of the Ikarist continent the practice might be more widespread
Irrelevant in the previous examples (unfortunately), in a way, too many cultures for a short answer, there were more revolutionaries than class philosophers, as much as the average medieval everyman was - that is, not much outside of pretty specific circles.

Quote:
Is there weaponized Squid?
Can I start with one? How much are they? Can I have one as a pet/horse/best friend? Can I play one? Can I dual wield them?

There is a whole submerged continent guarded by sea monsters, so hell yeah
If you're in said continent, depends on the specific species, again depending on the species yes/yes/no cephalids yet, again no cephalids yet, if you really have no heart - or are some wrathful god of the sea.

I hope this satisfies your curiosity :D
