What Fantasy world would you choose?

[Gwaimir Windgem]

I know what you mean. I have so many books planned, and so little actually written.

[NoriThunderanger]

I would have to say Middle Earth or Krynn. For those who don't know, Krynn is the world from the Dragonlance series, which I think is fun (especially the kender).

[Gwaimir Windgem]

My brother absolutely despises kender; though I like them.

[Faelnor]

Hmm, I forgot about all the other places, scratch the ones I first said. I'll just put them in the order I like:
The World of the Belgariad and the Malloreon(check them out, they're a good series of books.),
Middle-Earth,
Krynn.

Kender, they're a funny race.

Then he heard the last words anyone ever traveling with a kender wants to hear. "Oops..."

[Radagast The Brown]

Well, after I read Edings, I think I would've choose his Fantasy World.

[Lief Erikson]

I haven't read much Eddings and I haven't read Dragonlance. So would some of you care to elaborate, if only for my benefit?

I've also probably plotted out at least three or four times as many books as I've written. But I don't mind too much, because at least this way only the best ones get written. I've done a few thirty pagers and the one I'm working on now is so far a little over 300 pages long; it's going to be 500 pages or so in the end, but I'm quite confident that I'll end up finishing it. I've already stuck with it for so long, anyway . . .

Wow, THAT would be extreme!

[Elf.Freak]

i wanna live in a world where you can live in whatever world you want! (like, if you wanna live in a Discworld world you can live there, but you can also live in Middle Earth, Anne McCaffery's dragon world, etc.) or if not, i'll stick with Mirkwood

ok, that probably confused some people!

Ah...so basically, do you want to be able to go back and forth between worlds?

[GRONK!!!]

GRONK will have to say Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy because only there does the simple joy of travelling into the past, killing a famous poet, then publishing his works under GRONK's name exist. Amber would be a fun world to live in too. In Amber GRONK could go into a shadow world, declare himself a god, and then send his followers to war against neighboring nations for no apparent reason.

[Lief Erikson]

You know what? GRONK you almost give the impression that you are a bit of a bully .

[Silverstripe]

Ah, he's one of those who talks in third person, leave 'im alone.

[Gwaimir Windgem]

I think he probably meant this:

In Amber GRONK could go into a shadow world, declare himself a god, and then send his followers to war against neighboring nations for no apparent reason.

[GRONK!!!]

GRONK doesn't believe in the word bully. GRONK believes in opportunity and the fools too blind to grab it. GRONK also believes in hitting things with large blunt clubs, but that can be done in any fantasy world.

[Lief Erikson]

GRONK, do you know what you just managed to do? You managed to almost quote the worst villain in the book I'm writing!

From The Uirlon Cord
"You see," the voice from the pit said to him, more quietly now, and less triumphant. "You have been fed lies. He cannot hear you. There is no good and evil, there is simply power. All that is comes from me, good and bad . . ."

Well, enjoy your fantasy world .

Hmmm, perhaps you're right, Silverstripe. Maybe I'd better leave him alone . . .


Really though, it is rather interesting to have someone like you on this topic. So far everyone, including myself, wants a really nice and beautiful place in which we'd be contented, happy and in charge. You, on the other hand, have a completely different world in mind, and I fear for its inhabitants

And if the rest of the book is like that excerpt, it will be very good!

Well, there seem to be three very different ideas displayed in this thread. Using ME as example:

"I'd want to defeat Sauron!"

"I'd want to have a peaceful world where there is no Sauron."

"I'd want to BE Sauron!"

[Lief Erikson]

Lol! Yes, I think that is the case .

Thanks .

[GRONK!!!]

Hmm GRONKs not sure he would want to be Sauron. Being Sauron would entail too many responsibilities. Sauron was also too big on the whole "destroy all that is good and sacred in the world" cause. GRONKs never been a big fan of causes. The last cause GRONK got truly into was when he embarked on a mystical quest to find out who stole his lunch. If GRONK was a ME character then he'd rather be a happy go lucky bandit. Then GRONK could attack the fellowship of the ring, steal the ring, and then mistake the ring for a delicious onion ring and eat it. GRONK would love to put the ring's supposed indestructibility to the test. Yeah, being filled with evil and impervious to all but Mount Doom sounds nice, but lets see the ring survive a trip through GRONK's digestive tracts.
