worldbuilding: problems

there’s no place where everything runs smoothly. every country has it’s problems. that might be poverty, weak government, fake news, gun violence, or abuse of magical abilities. it could really be anything. so what’s wrong with your world?

what could go wrong:

there’s a whole lot more, get creative! as saddening as this will be, scrolling through news articles will give you some good inspiration because our world is pretty messed up

how to choose which problems to include

what is your world like? as obvious as this probably sounds, your world’s problems are directly related to the things in your world. choose pretty much any element of your world, however small it may seem, and there can be made a problem out of it.

in a world of magic:

really, the problems for a magical world are endless - you can use regular real-life problems with a twist. the magical government lies to the public, buying out the main news source? people of pure magical lineage are somehow better than those related to non magical people? harry potter is a fantastic example of magical worldbuilding, steal stuff from jkr (but don’t make gay characters who are never actually gay)

in a world of science:

i’m a big fantasy nerd, much less sci-fi, so i don’t really have any good examples from books/movies, but here are some ideas anyway

again, you can take regular real world problems and put a sciencey twist on them; a gang that kills people with laserbeam contact lenses, a new invention that uses a very rare element that’s important to the ecosystem and is starting to destroy the planet, the little robots we send to mars become self aware and build a colony of robots. go off sis

elizabeth swan and will turner are actually SO romance in the first movie and not enough people acknowledged this because the early 2000s were the age of the edgelords who only valued jack sparrow’s moral ambiguity and that is the TRUTH

the part where she’s like “how many times do i have to tell you to call me elizabeth” and he shyly says “once more, miss swann” and once she walks away he gazes adoringly after her and whispers “elizabeth” to himself like he’s unworthy of it

then when he’s patching up the cut on her hand and she flinches and he says “i know, blacksmith’s hands… they’re rough” because he thinks that’s what’s bothering her HE KNOWS HE’S NOT WORTHY OF HER!!! THAT’S THE PINING I’M TALKING ABOUT BINCH!!! I DON’T ACCEPT LESS!!!!

he has like 10 chances to confess his love to her but waits until he’s dressed like this to do it: 

my man knows 1) the importance of a good outfit when shooting your shot 2) how to ACCESSORIZE. take NOTES.

That’s how I would dress if I was gonna confess my undying love to Kiera knightley

Look how damn fine he was. I forgot I had a huge boner for him in 2000s.

This fucking site: hey net neutrality is about to die :((( please help us :(((( boost and rb everything you see even if you’re not American :((((((((( we’ll have no wifi :(((((( we need you!!!! :((((

Non-Americans: okay

Non-Americans: hey greece is basically on fire, 150 people are wounded, 53 are killed and our nature is being destroyed. we’re suspecting arson. can you please reblog some posts and help spread awareness?

This fucking site:

Please pray for us here in Greece.

Three different places near Athens were destroyed by massive forest fires.

• 180+ people are severely injured and burnt.

• 50 people and counting were found dead on the streets, in their cars or houses, including families that were found hugging each other.

• 100+ are missing.

This is a national tragedy. So many were lost because of ARROGANT PEOPLE.

Spreading awareness. There’s no need for such things to happen, so many lives were destroyed for no reason.

I normally don’t adress such happenings, but what happened in the outskirts of Athens is beyond sickening. It has been happening for years every summer, and in other countries as well. But this time it grew so out of hand that innocent people lost homes, loved ones and were burned alive by the hellfire that arose because people want nothing but power and money. Normally, I wouldn’t be so sensitive about such a tragedy, but this happened in my country, this happened in calm and quiet places where innocent people went on their daily lives and some for their holidays. This is just beyond sickening. Last night I saw a photo of a firefighter holding a dead child in his arms. Some people managed to get away, but the others were surrounded and could do nothing but wait for the fire to cook them alive. Just imagining their fear, how much pain they had to go through… It’s honestly unbearable. So many are dead, and even more injured and/or in critical conditions. A tragedy such as this could have happened near wear I live, as well. So basically all I have gathered is that humanity doesn’t exist, it never did in the first place all those years ago. Live life at its fullest because you never know what might happen. Try and make yourself happy because you never know what could happen to you. I hope everybody here and in other countries stays safe and that no one has to bear this again, and I mean this. It’s one thing to see it about another country on the internet, and it’s another thing to have it happen in your own, when you know this could have occurred to you and your family. The powerful doesn’t care about the innocent, and the innocent are always the ones to have to withstand every selfish action of the powerful. That’s how it always was. I hope you, brothers and sisters, are safe wherever you live and come from because no one in this world deserves such a horrible fate. And please, do not take this lightly. Just because Greece is not a big country does not mean that this is not a national tragedy and that innocent people suffered for nothing.

Hey! Please take a moment to spread awareness about the Greece Wildfires around! If you see any posts about it and how to help, reblog them! I don’t care if it’s not your blogs theme, people are dying and need help!

If you can donate to anything at the moment, let it be to Greece! I will be when I get paid! My thoughts are with you Greece!

HOLY SHIT WHAT IF THE BACK COVER IS OF HER NEW SCARS ?

Yaaay!! 🙋🙋
