More things to add...

About the clothes thing... It's also something interesting to note that as well. It's quite true that many female characters are naked, but not all of them, fortunatelly. Some are even a bit concerned about it and thus wear clothes. And some male chars like to be naked as well, it depends on the author's criteria.

And as noted and to add further for my opinion, Felaryan predators don't have a diet only based on humans... or nekos... or anything humanoid. As mentioned, there are omnivore species, like fairies, who can also eat fruits and vegetables if I'm right, and not all meat has to come from humanoids. It's just that people are fascinated with the predator aspect, but some of us also like other facts in such species, not going for the stereotypes all the time.

Oh, and one thing I didn't talk about...

I've always thought the very nature of Felarya made it safer against space attacks. Thinking of it, I don't believe Felarya is that easy to reach from outer space, no matter from which universe you come from. It's more like a world moving between worlds, a crossroads sometimes, but being more like a world that is constantly jumping from one reality to another. Thus making nearly impossible to attack it from outer space.

Wrongly named "interdimensional attacks", whoever, would be something different, but I have a hunch that the world of Felarya itself would have something to stand against any menace...

Notys would guard against that sort of thing, or so one would think.

@___@ So many replies.

Okay, it's making more sense now on the herbivores part (since from your responses and the wiki, everything else just seems more interesting to cover).

There is something that really need to be clarified once and for all I think : the fact that giant predators don't have a diet comprised of 100% humans or sentients beings. ^^; Even a voracious one such as Crisis will have no problems to devour animals if their hunt go poorly..

^Thank you for clarifying that.

Have to say, I agree with you on plenty of those points. Still, Felarya is at heart a fetish world aimed at men, hence all the tits and shaved vag, but no ICKY PENISES. (The 3 or so male nagas store them internally, wat.) About the whole 'midgets aren't people' thing, I don't think that's what people are trying to convey... I think it's more 'Powerful people can do whatever they want to the weak with no consequences.' Either way, it's always disturbed me a little. 8C Of course, lots of work is being done, and the world is much more developed than it used to be, with loads of different ideas for plant and animal life and all that. My advice is, if you want stuff to change, have a shot at doing it yourself, we could use someone else. C:

I'll try to contribute to the wiki sometime when I get to D: And...yeah. Those two major points were the ones that sort of disturbed me.

-Well the world function totally differently than our own... it's a bit long to explain.. But basically there IS a logical reason for the high number of females and the fact that so much creatures go and vore others. It has something to do with the origins of Felarya but it hasn't been revelaled yet. -Giant nagas aren't really *that* stealthy. The only one able to move with minimal sound is Crisis. How she manage it remain a mystery. -Figuring the "shape" of Felarya is really a very difficult thing... ( I don't know if I could draw this but this could be an interesting experiment XD ) But I think you are mistaken... As I see it you can travel on the "sides" of the disk ( or whatever form it is, assumng it's a stable one which is not at all that sure) But if you try to go upward or downward, then you exit it and reappear somewhere else... Atually if you dig really very very deep, you would exit Felarya as well, beginning to dig into the ground of another world.

Well the shape can wait for later...though I do have to wonder how mountains & volcanoes form on Felarya (where is the lava anyway?). I'll try to work on that sometime. As for the origin on how there are so many creatures that eat others whole along with the high number of females, I hope that gets put up soon sometime.

^I guess it is. *shrug* It's still a miracle that Earth's alive considering all the natural hazards that are around.

Overall, I guess I need to look around the wiki more often and contribute there (points three and four still float around in my mind...). I did come across some world-building guides recently today. Anyone want links to those?

Well, the wiki is quite strict with contributions, but you can always post your ideas in the specific parts of the forum. I'd be glad to read what you have stored for this world...

Also, the guidelines you mention might come handy for everyone. Maybe you could share them with everybody, though I don't know the proper part of the forum for it... ^^;

There is a major problem with the apparent severe shortage of male preds in Felarya.

If this is not a case of the males being hidden somewhere and is in fact a real shortage of male fairies, nagas, etc., in the proportions that are implied in the stories and manga, then killing the males is the fast and efficient way to bring about species extinction. The Crimson Maidens, having been specifically noted as having a shortage of males, are especially vulnerable. The extreme application of fire(or cryo-)power against 1 or 2 individuals would be enough to finish them off; one would just wait them out at this point. Crimson Maidens rarely fall prey to anything, which would help them survive longer, but still, kill a few males and they're at a dead end. Giant nagas obviously fall prey to things like Tonorions (see: Crisis), so attacking their male populace would mean they'd face extinction a lot faster.

I say this because it's a weakness that observant humans would be highly driven to exploit.

Like they ever could... The guardians would probably see that as a threat to the balance.
