This one time I was at a street festival hosted by my Uni and there was a guy doing card tricks. I was watching him when I noticed he dropped a card. (7 of spades) I quickly pu my shoe in it and then bent down to act like I was tying my shoe. He then asks for a volunteer so I raise my hand. He asks me to say the name of a card at random so I say “7 of spades” he does his trick that I guess was supposed to make it come on top. He holds up the Ace of Hearts and says “is this your card?” And I hold up the card and said “no but this is” and the crowd LOST IT. I handed the card back to the magician and walked away. Later he comes up to me and asks me how I did it. I looked him in the eye, smiled and said “magicians never reveal their secrets” and walked away.

Welcome to a world where control of the foundational elements is innate in all beings but a select few are born mages and can call upon any of them… where your element chooses you when you’re young and you train all your life to master it… where a war has been simmering for thousands of years between three factions — the Covenant, the Pact, and the Flow — all with different ideas on how their world should be shaped. In the city of Caelberk things are brewing and there’s something sinister on the horizon…
…and the Mason — the ancient mage who oversees the factions and keeps peace — is found murdered. 
Coming Soon!
The Hollow RP is a 21+ modern fantasy skeleton RP set in the fictional world of the Hollow whose centralized city, Caelberk, is the seat of all power. Magic exists in the form of elemental control and technology has been advanced to ease life for everyone involved. There will be 20+ skeletons upon launch with more being added as needed. Our game has some differences from others and we encourage you to read all information when the main drops!
Reblog for a sneak peek of the full plot and region map!

Creating a universe for a book can be a complex and creative process that involves a lot of world-building. To create a universe for a book, you must first establish the basic elements of the world, such as its geography, history, culture, and politics.
You will then need to create characters, plot, and a story that fits within the universe they have created. You may choose to create detailed maps, history, and culture. You may also want to create a set of rules and physics that govern how the world operates.
The process of creating a universe can be both exciting and challenging, as it requires you to think deeply about the world they are creating and to make decisions about how it functions. But ultimately it will add depth and richness to the story and make the reading more enjoyable for the audience.
I have created a universe, but turned it into a dimension after a long and hard year of thinking of what I wanted to do with it. I hope that this post helps you guys start on creating your worlds as well. Keep in mind that this is not all that you need to know and some of this you may already know!
Coming up with a name for your universe:
Consider the theme or tone of your universe. If it is a fantasy world, you may want to choose a name that evokes a sense of magic or wonder. If it is a science-fiction universe, you may want to choose a name that sounds futuristic or technological.
Think about the culture or history of your universe. If your universe has a specific culture or history, you may want to choose a name that reflects that.
Use a thesaurus or other word reference to find synonyms or related words. This can help you come up with new and unique ideas for your universe's name.
Play with different languages, combining words or using words from different languages to create a unique name.
Consider using a name that is symbolic or metaphorical. This can help you convey the theme or tone of your universe in a subtle and powerful way.
Creating a fictional race:
Consider the physical characteristics of your race. What do they look like? Do they have any unique features or abilities? How do these characteristics affect their way of life and culture?
Think about the society and culture of your race. What are their beliefs, values, and customs? How do they govern themselves? What is their technology level?
Consider the role of your race in your universe. Are they the main characters or just a secondary race? How do they interact with other races in your universe?
Take inspiration from real-world cultures and myths. You can borrow elements from different cultures and myths to create a unique and believable race.
Please please PLEASE avoid stereotypes and cliches. Fictional races should be original and not based on existing stereotypes or cliches. You do not want to be insensitive towards a group of people by feeding into the negative stereotypes.
Give your race a unique language, naming convention, and history. This will give them a sense of realism and depth. This can be hard, so I know a few people that have hired linguists for this (however this is pricy and I know not many people can do this)
Creating a fantasy language:
Start with the basics of language structure. Decide on the phonemes (basic sounds) and grammatical rules for your language.
Use inspiration from existing languages. You can borrow elements from different languages to create a unique and believable fantasy language.
Create a vocabulary. Come up with words for common objects, actions, and ideas.
Consider the culture and history of the race that speaks the language. Does it have any influences on the language? How does it reflect the beliefs and values of the race?
Keep it consistent. Once you have established the basic structure and vocabulary of your language, make sure to stick to it throughout your story.
Give your language a writing system. Create an alphabet, symbols or characters that can be used to write the language.
As said before, don't hesitate to use a linguist or a language creator tool to help you create the language in a more accurate and professional way.
Again, this is not all that goes into created a universe or dimension of your own, but it's a step towards having a fleshed out world that your readers will love.
One thing I did not see, however, was that you will want to make sure that you keep your word in a document! Keep it written down if you prefer, but put it down somewhere. I created a template for myself when I was world building and it helps a lot. There's also a book that has helped me with thinking kore in depth and I will be sharing that soon!

Writing should be fun, so make it fun. Don’t be so serious. Don’t try to make it perfect. Let it become the joyful process of discovering the depths of your imagination.
