General Q and A

Since the thread got split off I'll reput a post that somehow got knocked off with the rest.

Would a true tiny taste any different to a neko than a shrunken human?

For instance, if a a neko in the wild found a human who took a dip in the shrinking pool, would they be able to tell the difference?


Would they care even if the knew? Or are shrunken humans just as tasty to them?

that's a difficult question to reply, since I obviously didn't tried either XP
but I imagine that yes each of them would carry a distinct flavor.

The thing is that you can't think of tinies as "little humans". Tomthumbs and Efrii will look similar to us, for example, but they aren't humans anyways. So that means that they won't possible taste like humans...

Still, I can't prove anything either, I don't go around licking people to find their flavor. xD

hell, i dont even what my taste is >.<

Hmmmm.....I wonder if they taste good to nekos anyway.....

This is a silly question since I've been role playing with Bagel often, but do fairies often have multiple mates? Basically, assuming that a fairy is in a relationship with another fairy, is it common for the same fairy to be in a relationship with another one at the same time? Sort of like polygamy, only not including marriage.

Well, nothing's been established on fairy culture or mating practices so its sort of hard to say. We know that fairies travel in packs and do have social interactions.

Considering fairy psychology and their flighty nature, I'd lean towards saying that they are polygamous. However, I do recall some stories where fairies were married, and it's stated that Mezzus is married to a fairy, so that suggests a more structured marriage system.

Though that might depend on the fairy. They do what they want - some want marriage, some want polygamy. That's a more broad answer.

There's other factors, like sex ratios and such if you wanted to be more in depth, but for this basic question I'd say - possible. Maybe not ubiquitous, but likely common.

Does Felarya have a working set monetary system, 'cuz if not, I have an idea that might work very well that I'd like to post! O.o

Oh, and something else...

If day and night are inconsistent in Felarya, and there's no set calendar, how are years and age measured in the first place?

Research is your friend.

The only places that would need set monetary systems would be big settlements, like Negav, Chiotia, Kelerm, and so on. Negav's monetary system is outlined in the wiki.

Most of the smaller settlements and tribes would likely just rely on direct item-for-item trade, since that would be far more useful to them than some small pieces of metal or rock that represent trade value.

Once again, only the more established civilizations would even think about a calender, and their's are likely not going to be exactly the same as our own. Predators can't read, much less think up a calender system. The ages in the wiki, and in bios, are more for the readers' referrence than anything.

I'd think the years relation would either follow the year system in the Negav calendar or just dividing time up earth style. But yeah like Cliff said, reference mostly

Well, yeah I assumed it was just giving an Earth equivalent to their age. For all we know, an 18 year old living in Negav could think of him/herself as 36 ferrithans (or some other made up word) old, lol. Not to mention all the different calender systems brought in from other worlds that may not have 24 hr/365 day planetary characteristics. Then there are the predators, who are mostly illiterate and unorganized. If you went as asked Crisis how old she was, all she could probably tell you is "full grown".

The Earth-style ages are just to give Earth readers some context, and help them understand things more.

ok i just finishd looking through the chonolgy of felarya in the wiki, and then it struck me
If meteors have entered Felarya before in theory they should under correct circumstances enter felarya agian or another type of space debrie IE fragments of space ships?
*note this was from the last time i checked and my laptop dosent have enough power for me to run a full check right now*

The above question and many of other Luke's questions could be summarized as:
"Would Felarya be subject to an external event that would result in catastrophic change to the Felaryan environment and/or its inhabitants?"

While the details of the question and answer differ each time, the answer can be invariably summed up as "no."

No AJ im saying "if it has Happened before, it will happen again "
The wiki said nothing specific about the metors im just saying "if they did appear in flearya then they will apear agian"

what the hell is with you guys ands summerizing things, its annoying and makes things diffficult to explian, in others word simple does not compute with me Period.

Not unless another Corrector-Guardian war happens; which it won't, since the Correctors were defeated.
The meteor shower occurred at the tail end of the Era of Mirages; a time when Felarya was extremely unstable in all aspects.
Those circumstances are what allowed those meteors though and due to the extraordinary nature of those circumstances, they can not be replicated therefore it's not going to happen again.

We have one case in the thousands of years of the chronology of a single meteorite hitting a single, remote location in Felarya.

Keep in mind, this was also during the "Era of recovery". The dimensional fabric was heavily damaged following the war with the Correctors, making it weak, and somewhat vulnerable. It has since gotten much stronger, and any future meteor events are unlikely.

You also have to take into account the MASSIVE odds that are against this happening. Space is big. Really big. Like, so much bigger than you could ever possibly comprehend, big. Think about the biggest thing you could possibly think about, and then realize its an atom, on an atom in comparison to how space is. Because a vanishing land cannot open in space, the only way this could happen would be through a whiplash portal. Whiplash portals take place within a small area, and only last a second.

I just want you to think about the odds. A whiplash portal, opening in the exact right part of space, at the same second a meteor is also passing by on a correct course to enter the area of the whiplash portal's effect, and also be the right size to go through it.

The incident in the chronology was, in all likelyhood, a once in an epoch event. There is virtually zero chance of any stellar object, be it natural, or artificial coming into Felarya. The only way a spacecraft MAY make it in, is if it has some kind of dimensional drive.

So yeah. No meteor strikes or random bits of space debris coming into Felarya. See also AJ's answer.

Okay so the wiki says they are like 40-120 long. But what if they rear up in defense or for attack? How high would they stand off the ground. Just curious...

request to move this thread in general question and answer.

Sure

I agree with gwada, this is a question for the general Q & A thread and should be merged by a moderator.

As for the question; Imagine a centipede rearing up. They can't really rear up that high (relative to body size), so it's not really something that needs to be listed or that could be determined easily.
