6/23/24.
"Linear B is the 25 year delayed debut album from Herald, aka Lawrence Worthington (The Male Nurse, Country Teasers, Yummy Fur). 10 Neo-psychedelic alt-pop gems co-produced with Deakin (Animal Collective)". Worthington was originally based in Scotland, and moved to Baltimore, Maryland.
I learned about this release from one of Monorail Music's emails. While this isn't my normal fare, I can't deny the fact that these songs are indeed gems. Josh Dibb (Deakin from Animal Collective) definitely lends an Animal Collective feel to these songs. Worthington's song really have a Brian Wilson/Beach Boys vibe.
I also love that this is being released by little-known Glasgow based label Errol's Hot Wax. According to the Bandcamp page this is "A DIY record label run out of a small pizza shop." Sounds like fodder for the beginning of a QAnon conspiracy.

How do you keep from Copy/Pasting existing Cultures into your Worlds?
Basically just as the title says, and I'm sure there's been pleeeeenty of discussion on the topic, but I'm genuinely curious what makes your cultures unique and original (especially when the modern aura of writing is "everything's been done"). Furthermore, is having a copy/paste culture a bad thing? For context, I'm primarily a Game Master (GM) who also on occasion writes as well as works in the TTRPG actualplay space. When you have an audience (whether friends or fans) is it necessarily a bad thing to have familiar locations, themes, and even characters that mimic real life? Can it be easier for an audience to just assume we're in "Ancient Rome" or "Habsburg controlled Austria"?
For me I do like creating totally original locations with their own weird political systems influenced by magic, gods, monsters, and anything else fantastical--BUT sometimes I find a setting is more interesting of just "what if Romans could directly interact with their deities?". For me I just find the idea of almost "alternate history" but in my uniquely fantastical setting interesting. However, I also understand that some people like genuinely different worlds with no trace of the real world left behind.
When creating unique cultures I try to combine elements to create something more unique. For example I'm currently working on the ancient periods of my current homebrew world, and specifically in a portion I haven't particularly worked on before. In Evrosea, a sort of "ancients world" where Greco-Roman culture lives on well into the medieval 15th Century (of course technology has changed and evolved) I find myself studying more ancient histories. I knew from before I fully began working on worldbuilding Erosea that there was some sort of "Roman Empire" which spread its tongue as a sort of lingua franca across the continent of Dulgren (aka why Common exists in my D&D world). Also originating from the region of Evrosea was the sorta monolithic pantheon of "new gods" (aka Catholicism). So I have the ideas of imperialism and religious importance in this region. So the very clear start was Rome itself, but how could I make this Rome unique? Well here's what I found from my research on Ancient Rome:
Many pre-settlers, and even contemporaries of Ancient Rome, in Italy were nomadic grazers and herders.
The Aeneid, which tells one of the many origin stories of Ancient Rome, ties in the ancient Greek tale of the Trojan War, and makes Rome the successors of Troy.
That many of their religious practices were tied up with the Senate (especially after the abolishment of the crown).
Finally, while perhaps never directly ruled by the Etruscans, their neighbors were much more confederate like and were similar in culture rather than being a unified people or kingdom.
Taking the information I found I twisted and jumbled much of this random history and constructed a group of nomads who controlled the fertile valleys of Uvemos (home region of the ancient Carinaens, my replacement for the Romans).
Many of these nomads worshipped similar sounding gods (if not outright the same gods), and most of them lived off the lands of Uvemos. Only a select few of whom ever settled into cities. However, long after the first nomads of Uvemos walked the hilly countryside arrived a band of pirates and raiders, terrors of the ancient world, many knew not their names, but they quickly accrued a nickname, "The Sea People" (see Sea Peoples on Wikipedia for more, TL;DR a bunch of random marauders who attacked or even helped cause the collapse of some Bronze Age Civilizations). One such pirate was said to be the Prince Laogonus, an exile from Apeiros, who was said to be a direct descendant of the God King Ulios himself. Laogonus settled down on the banks of Janian Sea in a small dirt settlement near to the roaming tribes of Uvemos. Many years later the small city of Carina was established as a blossoming trade hub by the many different tribes of Uvemians. Of these tribes was born a Chieftain's daughter, Aurora. Aurora was said to be descended from the god blood of Ulios, and when she prayed to her great grandsire on the eve of battle she was enveloped in holy light-- thus becoming the world's first cleric. Of her legacy were many rituals formed and practices established, and the civitas mille clericorum* was born.
*(civitas mille clericorum) meaning "city of a thousand clerics," named after the heavy religious undertones established by the first cleric Aurora, at least according to legend.
Super cool right?? I combined some other ideas than the ones I established such as the Sea People from the Collapse of the Bronze Age, as well as these kind of Shinto-like-beliefs in the Carinaen religion, which, to me at least, seems the most like what Ancient Roman beliefs would look like to us today (though I didn't really get to talk about in my blurb). I like taking existing pillars of cultures and extending them, now rather than just being a complete Roman rip-off there's more of this nomadic or tribal culture, at least to early Carinaen history, there's more of a nautical legacy (unlike Rome, who didn't establish a truly working navy up until the Punic Wars), and finally the city of Carina is a beacon for holy warriors and classes like Paladins and Clerics (again this is D&D so that's oriented towards that).
But tell me what you think, and how best do you come up with your fictional cultures/countries? Do you merely copy off of pre-existing cultures or do you fully work from the ground up? I'm super curious to hear what you all have to say!
I'm also tagging a couple friends since I'm curious of your responses @hessdalen-globe, @northernthiefcranberry, @kerghoulen, and the ever wonderful @somethingclevermahogony.
Also guys I need you to pull me out, I'm this close to dropping out of the arts and trying to get into Harvard to do Ancient Studies. Send Help.

seriously if capitano isn’t playable i might just drink the bleach that’s in the bathroom. or maybe i’ll drink some tank water full of my turtles’ shit. i did not wait TWO YEARS. SINCE THE WINTER NIGHT’S LAZZO TRAILER. FOR MY MAN TO BE HIT WITH “not playable because buff male”. fuck off.
the only character i was REALLY set on pulling for in natlan was capi, so maybe ill just save every last primo i get throughout the entirety of 5.x 😭😭😭
also a big fuck you to hyv for the direction they’re taking with natlan’s character designs. i just found out that olorun is based off of a nigerian god. fuck you mean he’s NIGERIAN. and THATS THE BEST YOU COULD DO FOR HIS DESIGN??

COUNTRY LOVIN’(TEASER)
Tumblr media
Sitting on the wooden planks awkwardly, loose curls from my now drenched afro stuck to my heated face as I blink without a confident thought. I almost settled on wallowing in my embarrassment, but he had already saw the entire scene unfold in real time, so it was no use.
“…you want some tea?” I ask after prominent silence, hoping my offer would wipe away any memory of what had just happened.
He chuckles, brushing wet leaves off of my thighs.
“Country ass. Yes, I want some tea.”
