So for a while I've been wanting to sit down and write a small directory of the settings/stories I've been playing around with currently, partly so I can start developing some of them more, but before I worry too much about formatting and such, I'm wondering if this is something that anyone would actually have any interest in reading? Are there any settings of mine that anyone has had any curiosity about at all? If so, which ones would you like to see more written up about first?
A brief overview of most of my settings featuring uploaded characters:
Southern Rock - Modern world AU with punk monsters! Lowkey setting with a sprawling set of characters
Plains Melody - A river-dwelling demigoddess and her followers and their associates
Scrape - Kemonomimi in ruined city in the desert in a post apocalypse
Vista - Generic fantasy setting features mages and royals
Academie - Teachers and students of Rozel Academie, a small school of magic tucked away in the woods
Door to Eikyos - An empire has fallen and a region is destabilized. A collection of lady warriors rival each other in battle in search of an ancient treasure to restore balance and claim glory for their lands
Komorebi - Generic Eastern fantasy with lowkey magic
Alfeid - A fantastical city in the desert where knowledge is currency and people look to the stars
Century - A steampunk city of inventors, of demons and humans and everything in between
Cilento - Medieval fantasy... now with furries!
Loam and Sun - Hunters living in an isolated village, visited by strange traders from abroad
My King - The trials of a djinn, trapped in service to a despotic king by his own folly
The Dead Country - A shadow of an old kingdom, now ruled over by a dark and shadowy queen and her few cursed subjects, and the elderly warrior who wishes to free it from her grasp
The Reef - Underwater ppl... honestly idk man

Duke (not uploaded) - A former deity of Light now embracing Darkness and presiding over a shadowy domain. But there is more to her turn of allegiance than it seems...
I love all of your stuff so I feel it's a given that I've read most of your info that's filled, but would love to hear more about

I only read this kind of stuff when its for characters that catch my interest, but yours always do! I'd also really love to hear more about your kemonomimi worlds, because I struggle with mine a lot... I love them but I have a hard time "explaining" the whole animal ear thing in a way that makes a good story?

Haha, honestly? I just don't bother explaining it at all usually xD 'That's just the way things are for the characters!' And I roll with it. It helps having only kemonomimi people in the world so that it's self-consistent, anyway, or running fantastical settings where you can handwave most things too. I've debated having some actual reasoning for the post-apocalyptic one, but I'm still on the fence on that!
But aah, thank you! I'll def keep those ones in mind 🔎

Well the best I've come up with for mine (not exactly post-apoc but more post plague2.0) is that there was some super virus that was killing off the population but animals were immune so they made a cure/vaccine that introduced animal dna into people's systems... it didn't change them in anyway, but then once people started having kids, the children were born with animal features
I'm sure anyone that knows anything about science would cry if they read that lmao... but hey, it works? ish?

Ohh, that's always a fun take on it! And HONESTLY... I think sometimes it's ok if speculative fic doesn't make sense, aha.
