Episode 281 Season 8, Game of Thrones story fixes are all wrong

Today's Topic Winter is dead, long live the winter

Please Subscribe, Rate and Review us on iTunes
For complete Fantasy Worldbuilding, show notes go to Gardul.com

Podcast Show flow

  • What are the problems with many of the story fixes
    • Game of Thrones was inspired by the past.
    • It was meant to take a Tolkien like story and subversion
    • Execution caused most of the problems, not what happened.
  • Daenerys should be queen and/or
  • Jon Snow should be King
    • No just know
  • John Snow should have killed the Night King
    • Not as such
  • Kings Landing should not have burned
    • Who could be king
    • Gendry
    • Ellaria Sand
    • Sansa Stark (The starks are the White Roses)
  • Bran should not be King and John Snow should have at least hugged Ghost
    • Okay, cannot argue that
  • Lessons for storytellers
    • Beware of breaking tropes
    • People seem to want Disney Fantasy
      • A little messy and scary at the beginning and tied up in a neat bow at the end
    • Monday Morning Quarterbacks will appear either way if your story becomes popular
    • Use character development not shock to change the course of a narrative.

 

Worldbuilding Task

Create a better story to share and execute it!

 

Real world task

Today's Topic The long and short of creating a culture framework

Reading about cultures in national geographic was my first step into worldbuilding. The similarities and differences of cultures and how they change over time have been fascinating.  Years ago I learned about the idea of language families.  So I extended the idea of language families and came up with a protoculture or a fantasy culture group. The idea is that as the hunter-gatherer culture separates.  Not only does the language change, but so does the way the people believe. So Join Michael and Jeffery as the look about how to create a fantasy culture group in your fictional world.

    • The longer the shared experiences are separate 2 groups the more alien they will appear to each other. Imagine a Norseman meeting a person speaking Bengali in 1000 AD. Would the consider themselves distant cousins?
  • The Short of it
    • Enough to know them
    • No more than what you need, Wiggle Room
    • Use as a base for any cultures you create

Today's Topic No, I am not the Chosen one

The chosen one is a pervasive character trope used in stories, especially fantasy stories.  It a trope I am personally bored with in my fiction.  However, I am not sure if it is because it is so overused or since it is merely that the formula sometimes storytellers are lazy in spicing it up.

So, Join Michael and Jeffery as they look at the chosen one character trope, and brainstorm out some ideas to modify the trope to make it a stand out a little more in a world of millions of stories.

So, Jeff was working on classes for his very-side-indie RPG video game and thought that brainstorming worldbuilding classes for a fantasy culture would be a great episode

We often think about fictional characters in a vacuum.  However, may people who live around each other have many of the same skills.  So why not use classes when you worldbuild.  It will save you time creating characters in your fiction, and lots of time if you are creating new classes for your RPG world.
