FAQ: What are the most visited pages on this website and how many visits do they get?

Several years ago, I wrote an article on how to write different types of magic uses, or rather how I personally write various types of magic users within the context of my Quaraun books. Today that page is one of my top ten most visited articles. It gets 50 to 500 views/reads/hits/visits per day depending on the time of the years and has had over 200k visits total since it was published.

Amphibious Aliens: Debunking The Atwater Family's Alien Abduction Hoax with more then 30MILLION reads since 2007 and The GoldenEagle: Debunking Stephen King's World's Most Haunted Car Hoax with over tenMILLION reads since 2007 still rank as the two most visited articles on my website, but, neither of those are writing related.

Writing Medieval Servants is my most visited writing related article with over 7MILLION reads.

This website was started in 1996 and has 1 to 3 new articles (all written by me, I am the only writer on this site) published almost daily. In 2017 we crossed ten thousand articles published. As of 2023, EACH article gets MINIMUM 10 to 70 reads PER DAY, with the high traffic articles getting 500+ reads per day.

And since December 2019, my website now gets three hundred thousand to 7 million reads per month - well over ONE HUNDRED MILLION PAGE READS PER YEAR, making it not only the single most trafficked site in the State of Maine, but also one of the most visited websites in ALL OF NEW ENGLAND!

{{{HUGS}}} Thank you to all my readers for making this possible!

When strangers meet on the road,
why do they walk together? 

I am answering random questions today about world building, over on Reddit and decided to take my answers from there and expand upon them even further over here. So that's what this page is. Me rambling on about various aspects of world building techniques I use when writing the Quaraun series. The questions I am answering are embedded here.

Writing Fantasy Books:
What will a traveler encounter on the roads in your world? 

I once had a reader who emailed me to say/ask:

"So, I'm reading Vampire Leprechaun of Fire Mountain. I'm about 100 pages into the book and nothing has happened yet. When does something happen?"

Uhm... it's a Quaraun novel. They are reading volume 5, they are 100 pages in and nothing has happened yet... gee... sooo... did you notice anything happening in volumes 1 through 4?

Let me repeat... they are waiting for something to happen: IN A QUARAUN NOVEL.

They explained that the characters were just walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles...

Can I repeat, that were reading a Quaraun novel, volume 5 of the series, and they waiting for something to happen.

uhm...yeah....that's what the story is about - them lost in a Fairy Forest, wandering aimlessly for miles.

That IS the story.

Quaraun and crew lost in a forest and walking in circles.

Oh wait, what were they reading again?

The Quaraun series.

And what is the Quaraun series about?

A homeless, elderly, suicidal Elf hiking across the planet, trying to find a reason to live, writing in the style of a travel blog.

The Quaraun series is 138 novels, about an old man, doing a bucket list hike around the world before he dies.

"So, I'm reading Vampire Leprechaun of Fire Mountain. I'm about 100 pages into the book and nothing has happened yet. When does something happen?"

Uhm... it's a Quaraun. They are reading volume 5, they are 100 pages in and nothing has happened yet... gee... sooo... did you notice anything happening in volumes 1 through 4?

Let me repeat... they are waiting for something to happen: IN A QUARAUN NOVEL.

They explained that the characters were just walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles...

Walking for miles and talking about what he sees, while he walks, is the ONY THING there is in ALL of the Quaraun novels.

That's what the series is about.

What else exactly were you expecting to see happen?

The Quaraun series is about a traveler, trekking the open road, and the encounters he meets along the way.

So we (me and this reader) are messaging back and forth about the issue, me wondering what they were expecting to have happen, them confused about what the book was. Pointing out that this volume is #5 of the series, and supposedly they had read the 4 previous volumes ... though I really don't think they did based on their "When does something happen?" question. :P LOL!

What was the problem?

It turns out, they THOUGHT the series was going to be an action packed adventure of D&D questing type monster battling, monarchy conquering, wizard dueling, swords clashing, dragon slaying, princess rescuing, gold hoarding type stuff.

They thought this because they had read an article stating that the main character was one I had played in my local game group for years and the novels were based off the actual game sessions which I had kept notes of for a few decades.

The problem?

They neglected to read the part of the article which stated the series was "slice of life literary fantasy" and told the story of what happened OUTSIDE OF THE GAME... the stuff NOT battles, and monsters and questing, but rather the journey, the traveling, the random stops at taverns and campsites.

The whole series, all 130+ volumes of it, every single novel, is the every day life of an elderly wandering vagabond wizard as he just travels the open road.

There are no sword fights, no monster battles, no wizard duels, or anything else remotely action packed in any novel of the series.

There is however, LOTS of traveling and sightseeing, to the point that it reads more like travel fiction.

And I'm constantly saying this. It's not like it's ever hidden or should be a surprise that nothing happens other than a tourist Elf is sightseeing while he hikes.

Quaraun is the main character, a wandering "wizard for hire" so, he's in every story.

In a few stories he's travelling alone.

In many stories he's travelling with 1 or the other or both, of 2 fellow travelling wizards. Usually BoomFuzzy and/or GhoulSpawn.

Some times they meet up with an "adventuring group", a band of hippies, another group of travellers, a migrating family, and will then have 4 or 5 or more characters traveling with him.

Sometimes he'll meet up with a merchant or a caravan or a wagon train or a family just off to visit relatives, and will have a large group of a dozen or more people travelling with him.

So you never know from one novel to the next who he's going to have as traveling companions... it's just whoever he meets on the road who is going the same direction as him.

It's a lot of dialogue. A LOT. Conversations between him and the strangers he meets as they talk about life, the universe, and everything, while they walk along.

So... answering your question...

>>What will a traveler encounter on the roads in your world? 

>>Depending on the setting, travel can be a lengthy process and one that is often glossed over without much detail. I'm of the opinion that the journey can be far more interesting than the destination.

>>So picture a random traveler in your world. What will they encounter? Will they have interesting stories, worthy of regaling a crowd in a tavern?

Okay, first a lay out of the continent:

Most of the stories are set in an alternate-Earth-like place, that is mostly Earth, but with changes. with geography that closely matches Quebec, Nova Scotia, Maine, New Hampshire region. Thus summer are cool and short, spring suffers torrential rains, falls has hurricanes, and winters last from October to May with blizzards back to back and snow that reaches 20+ feet deep.

Ivujivik, Quebec, Canada and Old Orchard Beach, Maine, United States of America are the two locations where Quaraun has a home, but he rarely stays at either for more than a few days a year. Most of the year he is walking between the two. He walks from Old Orchard Beach to Ivujivik and than from Ivujivik back to Old Orchard Beach, taking slightly different roughts each trip, so seeing different things than each prior trip.

The total distance one way is: 1,341.65 mi (2,159.18 km), via going straight North, through the forests and mountains.

Getting Old Orchard Beach, Maine, to Ivujivik, Quebec, via the coast line means you have to cross the ENTIRE outer parameter of Newfoundland and Labrador, which is more then double the "as a bird flies North" straight up distance, totaling 5,244.11 mi (8,439.57 km).

To go full circle, from Old Orchard Beach, Maine walking the beaches and shoreline of the Atlantic Ocean and Labrador Sea to Ivujivik, Quebec,  than NOT turning back and going the same rought down, but instead continuing to follow the shore line, now going South down Hudson Bay to Ontario, then going straight down through the tundra, mountains, and forests, till you reach Vermont, than crossing New Hampshire, to return to Old Orchard Beach, Maine is a total distance: 8,622.26 mi (13,876.19 km)

In any case, because getting Old Orchard Beach, Maine, to Ivujivik, Quebec, via the coast line means you have to cross the ENTIRE outer parameter of Newfoundland and Labrador, this also means the Quaraun frequently (in many novels) stops to visit Santy Claws and his Cookie Elves, so that they can also visit BoomFuzzy's cousin Krumpas.

And yeah, and considering I live in Old Orchard Beach, you can now see how very close to the North Pole I actually live, seeing how Santa's Village location is walking distance for me.

It takes the average elderly person 27 minutes to walk 1 mile. So let's round that up to 30. This means it would take 1 hour to walk 2 miles.   That means it takes 4,311 hours to walk the distance Quaraun walks. divided by 24 hours = 180 days on non-stop walking.

Now Quaraun walks with a cane, dragging his leg, meaning he walks half the average speed. Meaning without breaks or sleep, walking 24 hrs straight, would take him 360 days to walk from Old Orchard Beach to Ivujvik back to Old Orchard Beach.

But we know Quaraun is in frail health and tires easily, takes long breaks often, is prone to spend a week resting at an inn in a port town, and in total probably walks less than 5 hours, most days. Meaning a single trip from Old Orchard Beach, Maine, to Ivijivik, Quebec, in the 1400s, takes Quaraun about 5 years to walk.

And all Quaraun does in the entire series is walk from his home in Old Orchard Beach to his home in Ivujvik and back to Old Orchard Beach and back to Ivujivik and back to Old Orchard Beach, over and over and over and over and over again.

Like I said, the Quaraun novels are a lot of walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking and walking for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles... and his journey IS the ENTIRE story... all 138 novels.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, all of readers are NOT going to like the Quaraun series because it does NOT have a plot, it does NOT have a story, it does NOT have beginning/middle/end formatting, it does NOT have action/adventure/fighting/questing going on. The story is LITERALLY and suicidal, depressed elderly man walking aimlessly between his two houses hoping to stumble across something that gives him a reason to want to live.

The story IS the journey.

Nothing happens.

Most readers WILL find it boring.

It's more than 70% dialogue, of conversations he has with either himself or someone he meets on the road.

And as I said, this is not only a real location, it is also where I live and where I walk myself in real life, so here, have some Google maps so you can get a better feel for the location the Quaraun novels are set in and the hiking trails you see Quaraun walking on:

The main character (Quaraun) mostly travels along the coast, rarely going more then 2 miles inland from the ocean. Other Earth-like regions exist (deserts, prairies, jungles, etc, but the main character rarely travels to them.)

  • Cities (with 1,000 to 2,000 people) are few and may have 200 miles or more between them. These are often built along rivers and have large mills where many people work at. Cities have stores, shops, and mercantile not found in smaller towns. The Market centers re big a busy. The cities each have multiple taverns, inns, and whorehouses.
  • Towns (500+ people) are few but more common than cities and maybe only 100 miles between each one. Towns often have a "market square" where you can find merchants and farmers from nearby towns. There is usually somebody there selling something every day. Most have both a tavern and and inn and many have whorehouses.
  • Villages (fewer than 500 people) can be found about every 10 miles. Usually made up of farms, and having large field of crops all around them. On the coasts they are made up largely of fishermen. Villages have a "market day" where local farmers, bakers, fishermen, weavers, etc, set up carts. Some villages may have their own blacksmiths or mills, but many don't and travel to the nearest village that does. They may or may not have a tavern or an inn, but likely will have a whorehouse with it's own pub in it.
  • Settlements (fewer then 100 people) pop up here and there, wherever a group set up camp and then decided to stay. Rarely do these have houses. Most families living in their wagons, carts, vardos, tents, yurts, etc., These are like campgroup shanty towns. Places where travelers, homeless, drifters, etc. stop and stay. The populations fluctuates as most people will set up these groups to have a place to settle in during rain or snow seasons when travel is difficult. They are basically stop over points that no one stays at for more then a few months. There may or may not be one or two permanent buildings.

Let's Look at the roads themselves:



  • Washed Out Roads & Land Slides" Because it is sandy soil on rocky coastlines, the roads are constantly washing out. Mountain streams turn into small rivers in spring with the snow melting runoff and hurricanes in fall tear up anything spring left behind. Travel thus often involves, hiking off the road and through the forest without any marked trails to guide you, to get around downed trees, gaping road washouts, collapsed bridges, etc.
  • The Blizzards of "Deep Winter" (January, February, and March) This time of year, going outside is a death sentence as the temps drop to -40F, wind chill factors drop to -120F during a blizzard (a blizzard is a North Atlantic hurricane with snow instead of rain; the requirement being minimum 3" of snow per hour, minimum 75MPH winds, and a snow fall accumulation of over 3 feet per storm; blizzards are relatively rare in our real world, do far more damage then a hurricane could ever dream of, though people like to call any deep snowfall a blizzard, not really knowing what the actual definition of a blizzard is - true blizzards only occur in the coastal region along Bay of Fundy; which is the location of this fictional world, thus they get hit hard by blizzards).

If you are travelling in Deep Winter, you need to be prepared to set up camp possibly for several weeks. You want to have a lot of food and furs in your pack. Blizzards show up without warning and can bury you in 10 feet of snow per night, and can last several nights in a road.




The Swamp of Death:

The Swamp of Death appears in many novels. It is a reoccurring "magic location" that can appear at will in any region of the world.

The Swamp of Death exists everywhere and no where at the same time.

It is the place where "lost souls" go after death.

Though some characters describe it as being "Hell" and a place to punish the evil after they die, good people can go there just as equally as bad people.

It is the temporary resting place of people who died violent deaths: murder victims, suicide victims, soldiers who died at war, homeless who starved to death alone and forgotten.

Unlike Heaven and Hell which are places to reward good and punish evil, The Swamp of Death is a place where lost souls go to reflect on their life.

Souls in Heaven live with Angels who serve them, while souls in Hell live with Demons who torture them.

But Souls who go to The Swamp of Death become Ghosts and have the ability to haunt the living, mentally tormenting people who hurt them in life, or emotionally comforting loved ones whom are grieving.

Souls in The Swamp of Death are dead people who can not move forward to either Heaven or Hell, because they have some sort of "unfinished business" that needs resolving before they can move on.

In the novel Quaraun and The Vampire Into The Swamp of Death, the entire novel takes place in The Swamp of Death. In that story, Quaraun has taken several poisons and slit his wrists and dies briefly, before his friends revive him. The entire novel is a "near death experience" where Quaraun finally realizes that the people he's traveling with are all ghosts of people he's murdered in his life. It the story where he finally realizes that he murdered his best friend, which he realizes when he sees her in The Swamp of Death taking care of the 4 children he had murdered years before.

The Swamp of Death is a terrifying place. A vast peat bog, surrounded by acres of quicksand. It is always midnight and always shrouded in thick fog. Thousand of tombs and grave stones stick up out of the mud. Many of the Lost Souls try to escape the Swamp, only to be sucked down into the quicksand, and wake up the next day, back in the Mournful Lamb Inn, a tavern that sits in the center of the Swamp serving drinks to the dead.

And while this may sound like a place to visit, it is in fact a thing that travelers can encounter on any road, should they become near death.

The Swamp is guarded by sentient pumpkins, who act as "an army of Grim Rippers" gathering dead souls and taking them to the Swamp.

If it is your time to die, the pumpkins will start showing up along road sides, watching you, waiting for your death to happen.

The Swamp and it's Pumpkin Guards appear in almost every Quaraun novel, though sometimes only very briefly, just seen out of the corner of the eye in a quick sentence or two.

While the Swamp is supposed to only take the souls of murder victims, suicide victims, and people who died traumatic deaths, The Swamp is known to stalk lonely travelers, appearing suddenly along side the road. When the traveller moves to get a closer look at the mysterious Swamp, dozens of ghostly hands grab the travelers legs and pull them into the Swamp, drowning them in the quicksand, thus causing the unsuspecting traveller to befall a traumatic death and become yet another soul trapped in the Swamp.

No one knows exactly what The Swamp of Death is, but, some suspect it to actually be a massively huge Mimic or possibly a gigantic Jelly capable of tricking people into thinking it is a swamp, when in fact it is a monster.

In any case The Swamp of Death is many thousands of years old and no one can remember a time when it did not exist and roam the Earth feeding on lost souls.


The Pissed Off Pumpkin Patch: Common but rarely seen. Grinning, glowing Jack-o-Lantern pumpkins that tumble and roll across the ground, sometimes sprouting bodies and limbs made of vines and leaves, sometimes seen in the form of "living scarecrows", and other times robed in black. People often describe them as being The Grim Reaper, but no one knows for certain what exactly they are. Sometimes they appear as a long pumpkin sitting on a porch, other times they gather in huge hordes and sit in a field covering massive acres pretending to be a pumpkin patch. Where they are, The Swamp of Death follows, and presumably, they are part of the Swamp's body and not separate limbs. The Pissed Off Pumpkin Patch is known to stalk lone travellers, terrorizing them, and chasing them off cliffs or into quicksand.  

The pumpkins are rarely seen by their victims, for the moment you turn to look at them, they instant freeze, and look like ordinary jack-o-lanterns, scarecrows, or pumpkin patches.

The pumpkins appear in almost every Quaraun story, as they follow Quaraun wherever he goes and he is constantly telling people there are pumpkins chasing him, but almost no one believes him and thinks his tales of being chased into swamps by pumpkins are the raving delusions of a madman.

Because Quaraun is a murderer. the ghosts of his murder victims are trapped him the Swamp of Death, and scream for vengeance, thus causing the pumpkins who guard the swamp to constantly chase Quaraun, trying to force him into the Swamp of Death and drown him.

There are frequent scenes of pumpkin vines grabbing Quaraun's arms and legs and dragging him through the forest into the Swamp of Death.

Quaraun, however is a Necromancer with power over the dead and continually escapes the attacks buy the pumpkins and the lost souls of his murder victims.


>>>What will a traveler encounter on the roads in your world?

  • Other travellers: Unless you are traveling deep in the heart of Faerie regions (vast forests with 100+miles between each house), the roads are not as lonely as they seem. There are always other people, mostly Humans, to be encountered on the way. Trade between populations is always happening, so you'll often meet merchants or peddlers. Farmers are always heading to nearby villages to trade their crops for supplies. Same goes for craftsmen and fishermen. People travel to mills to get grain ground to flour. People travel to towns and cities to buy items they can't buy in their own town.

"A day's journey" is considered to 8 to 12 miles, so usually you can walk from one village to the next and always have a tavern/inn/etc to sleep in at night. Because of the relative closeness of settled populations, people are constantly going back and forth between towns/villages to visit relatives or make trades.

At harvest season (August, September, and October) the roads are especially busy with farmers with their mule trains, horse drawn wagons, and ox carts off to make trades.

You'll meet merchants and peddlers all year.

In "Deep Winter" (January, February, and March) most of the roads are closed (because trucks with plows will not be invented for another few hundred years!). This time of year, going outside is a death sentence as the temps drop to -40F, wind chill factors drop to -120F during a blizzard. Travel is dangerous and not recommended during Deep winter.

  • Highwaymen and bandits: A common problem, especially on the outskirts of cities and larger sized towns. They are always on the look out for lone travellers, especial ones that look wealthy or appear to be carrying a valuable wagon load. These men are dangerous cutthroats, often rapists, and usually won't think twice about murdering you for a small bag of coins. They tend to set up small camps on the outskirts of cities, then wait along roadsides to ambush anyone they think is easy pickings.

Because the bandit problem is so bad in certain areas, there are some roads that no one dares travel on alone, and will only travel in a large group of others. In these regions you also rarely see female or children travelers, as most men do not feel it is safe for their families to travel in these regions.

  • Faeries - Phookas: Common. Shapeshifters. Deadly. Eat anything that moves. Known for their psychotic blood frenzies. Can appear as anything, any animal, and person, even your best friend. Usually appear as a small injured Shetland Pony limping along the side of the road. When you try to help them, they turn into fire breathing black unicorns, stab you to death with it's horn, eat your entrails, dance in your blood, then wear your skull on their horn like a crown. Usually live in swamps and marshes along the coast. See here for full details: https://www.eelkat.com/Phookas.html
  • Faeries - Little Old Men: Leprechauns Uncommon. Tricksters. Usually harmless. Tiny old men, usually around 4 feet tall, centuries old, they delight in tormenting travellers. Rarely do they intend to hurt anyone, but pushing you off a cliff for a good laugh is certainly something they would do. They like to turn acorns into "gold" then send travellers on wild goose chases in search of pots of gold that are nothing more than rusty buckets of acorns.
  • Faeries - Little Old Men: FarDarrigs Uncommon. Tricksters. Deadly. A type of Undead Leprechaun, similar to a vampire, they have insatiable blood lusts. Noted for wearing patchwork leather coats made out of the skins of their (mostly Human) victims. After each new kill, they sew your face to heir coat and then dye their coat red using your blood.
  • Faeries - Little Old Men: Clurichauns Uncommon. Tricksters. Usually harmless. A type of Leprechaun, they are not obsessed with gold and instead are obsessed with drinking. They are noted for setting up illusionary taverns in the middle of no where. Lonely and seeking a drinking companion, they like to lure travellers to their drunken doom. Once a traveller goes inside to get a drink, they may be trapped there for centuries, before the Clurichaun let's them leave,
  • Faeries - Little Old Men: Red Caps Uncommon. Tricksters. Deadly. A type of Feral Leprechauns. Vicious serial killing, Human eating, mad men who will tear you to shreds, wear you head for a hat, and paint their bodies with your blood.
  • Faeries - Little Old Women: The Banshee Sisters: Bean-Nighe and Ben-Neeyah Rare. Tricksters. Deadly. Two old women who died in child birth and now haunt swamps and mountain streams, washing the blood stained clothes of murder victims. Usually can only be seen by someone who murdered a child. They haunt the nightmares of the child's murderer, often driving him to suicide. You can read one of Quaraun's encounters with them here: https://www.eelkat.com/bean-nighe-and-ben-neeyah-in-the-swamp-of-death.html he and his companions had stopped for the night to sleep in an old abandoned church in the woods across the road from a swamp.
  • Faeries - Little Old Women: Aswangs Uncommon. Shapeshifters. Deadly. The main source of their diet is newborn infants, though they will eat any Human, Elf, or Faerie that they can get. They prefer to fins a larger sized village, kill the mid-wife, take her form, then prey on the pregnant women who come looking for midwife services.
    Magical Creatures I Created Specifically For Quaraun's World:

  • Flying Pink Goldfish: Very rare.  Initially thought to be figments of GhoulSpawn's wild imagination, other characters start to see them as well. It is unknown the origins of the flying pink goldfish, all that is known is that they showed up one day after Quaraun miss cast a spell. It is believed the fish originated from another galaxy and Quaraun's spell teleported them through a portal to here. The fish swim through clouds in the are and have no need to live underwater like normal fish. They hunt in packs and eat in blood frenzies like piranhas. Considered one of the most dangerous creatures you could encounter. They attack in swarms and leave travellers reduced to bloody piles of bones.

  • Katopas: Gazelle-like creatures, striped like zebras, except blue and white stripes. Once roaming in millions across the plains, they are now extinct after Quaraun and BoomFuzzy encountered the herd fleeing from a massive wild fire. Quaraun successfully stopped the fire and rescued the Katopas. Unfortunately after Quaraun left, unknown to Quaraun, a side effect was that somehow all the Katopas died and turned into undead zombie like creatures that now gallop through the skies at night. Villages in the way of the herd of undead Katopas are left in trampled runs.


Magical Creatures From FolkLore That I Use In Quaraun's World:


  • Hell Hounds: Vicious black dogs with glowing red eyes. Sometimes they are fire breathing. Sometimes their fur has flames leaping from it. Basically a pack of huge supernatural wolves. They are not common, but cross roads from time to time and are known to attack anyone that crosses their path.

  • Dragons: A wide variety a lizards, varying from small as Chihuahuas to as big as small mountains. Always have 4 legs, often but not always have wings, some can fly, others can swim. Very rare and even more rarely seen. They come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and colours. Some have magic powers, others do not. Some breath fire/lava/magma, others breath frost/ice/snow. Most like to collect shinny objects, so they often have a "dragon's hoard" but it may not be worth anything, it could be just a nest full of spoons. 

  • Small dragons are sometimes kept as pets like cats or dogs. 

  • Medium sized ones are sometimes kept as beasts of burden for riding or pulling wagons or pulling plows in fields, like horses or oxen or cows.

  • Large sized ones are rarely kept as pets or livestock, but some people have been known to tame an occasional large dragon for reasons of their own.

  • Dragons have the same intellect as dogs and horses; very intelligent for animals

  • Dragons are not shapeshifters or capable of speech, but some people think they might be, could be.

  • Quaraun killed a Black Mountain Dragon which lived in the caves under the volcano. He killed it because it had attacked him, but afterwards felt guilty and resurrected it as a Lich. Quaraun made a green glass heart shaped Genie-bottle and shrunk the entire mountain, dragon, dragon's hoard and all, and put it in the bottle. He keeps the DracoLich in his pocket and named her PocketLich. He has since tamed her and she now fiercely protects and defends him. Uncorked out of her bottle and restored to full size, PocketLich's snout is taller than Quaraun who stands at 5 foot 6 inches tall.

    Undead:
  • Vampires: Rare, but have been encountered often enough that few travellers dare be on the road at night. these are classic, old school, undead, blood sucking Nosferatu-type corpses that rise from the grave at night. Only out at night or on cloudy days.
  • Shambling Dead: Rare. Usually means there is a Borka, Houngan, or Necromancer in the area. These are zombies, undead corpses that were animated by magic. Usually harmless, because they are being controlled by powerful spells. They are a terrifying sight (and smell) to encounter, as their corpses are rotting and pieces dropping off. They retain feelings of hunger and can be trained (like a dog) by giving the meat treats when they obey commands correctly. While they do not have the sharp intellect of a living being, they do retain some limited levels of intelligence, emotions, and feelings. Like dogs, they become deeply loyal to their masters and will do anything they are trained to do on command.

Strong poisons are used to reanimate these corpses. Being bitten by one, infects the person bitten. The poison slowly kils them. They eventually become a Shambling Dead. Usually a Feral Undead.

  • Nzambie: Rare. A type of Shambling Dead. They are servants of a magic user, controled by psychic spells. Some Borka, Houngan, or Necromancers make Nzambies to do heavy labour such as harvesting crops, building houses, etc. These magic users often travel with caravans of these minions. Typically harmless, they can become deadly in seconds if the Necromancer feels you are a threat and tells them to attack you. Like piranhas they will reduce you to bones in seconds. Rarely seen outside of the farms they work.
  • Feral Undead: Rare. A type of Shambling Dead whom have no master controlling them. Dangerous. The classic brain eating "Walking Dead" style zombie. They'll eat any flesh they encounter. They are basically running wild in packs/hoards. Usually these packs of Feral Undead occurred when the wizard controlling them dies and there is no one left to tell them what to do. Some Feral Undead are people who were bitten and turned and thus have no master controlling them. Because they roam aimlessly, they may be encountered any place, any time of day.
  • Liches also known as The Wild Hunt: Rare, but more common than other types of undead. The wraith-like remains of Elf and Faerie wizards who commit suicide in an attempt to become immortal. They are now frozen skeletons made of glowing ice. They use illusions to pretend to be any living person or animal and often live alongside the living, in regular houses. A Lich may live in a town for decades with no one being aware the person is really and undead monster. Liches must feed on the living to survive, otherwise they go mad from starvation and become mindless monsters.


  • DracoLiches: Undead dragons who have become Liches




Let's shift a bit to another similar question:

When strangers meet on the road, why do they walk together? 




The power went out while I was typing the answer this. It was out for 5 days. The answer did not save while typing, so I'll have to retype it again later.


The retyped answer:

>>>Strangers meet on the road, why do they walk together? 


In the Quaraun series? There are so many reasons.

The most common reason is an injury. Quaraun is very shy and tends to stop and look for an alternate rought if he sees others on the road ahead. However, if it appears the person ahead is injured, sick, or otherwise in trouble, Quaraun is quick to offer help. On the flip side, Quaraun is elderly, frail, and in poor health, and often gets hurt or injured, and ends up in need of help himself.

Something in common. For example, Quaraun is a merchant of rare Thullid Silk which he weaves, beads, embroiders, and sews into robes, dresses, cloaks, purses, and bags, and Quaraun is quick to open a conversation with other merchants, which often leads to them traveling together. As there are many dangers on the road, merchants are often quick to travel together in large groups of several merchants, just because of the concept of safety in numbers.

Another example is Quaraun is a wizard, and is quick to hob nob with other wizards. Magic is heavily regulated in Quaraun's world, requiring permits, license, certification, authorization, and involves lots of bureaucratic red tape, and approval through The Guild of Magic.

Quaraun doesn't have any of the required paperwork. Additionally, Quaraun has murdered several members of the Guild including The Guild's founder Finderu. Getting certification is incredibly difficult and very few wizard's meet The Guild's guidelines. Guild members set up shops in large cities, work as court mages, and are generally stationary, never moving locations, never traveling.

A wizard travelling on the road, is usually also a wizard on the run from The Guild. Travelling wizards have a tendency to band together. Wizards as a general rule have learned to travel in packs in order to protect each other from being hunted by The Guild.

Food. People need to eat. Quaraun is not a good cook. He can cook to get by, but he grew up in a royal family and he would prefer to have fine dinning meal of a professional chef. While BoomFuzzy is a chef, BoomFuzzy is a chocolatier and pastry chef, not a chef devoted to cooking meals. In a quasi-Medieval setting, in the cold backwoods of Maine and Quebec, fine dining is hard to find, and Quaraun is quick to ask strangers if they can recommend places to find it. This often leads to him traveling with the stranger to that location.

Asking directions. While Quaraun is well traveled, he's not good at paying attention to his surroundings and so easily gets lost even in places he knows well. This leads to him frequently stopping to ask directions and often ends up traveling with the person.


And back to things a traveler meets on the road...

The 31 Days of Worldbuilding Challenge:
Here are some Reddit Writing Prompts To Help You Discover More About Your World, By Inspiring You To Write Descriptions, Bios, Narratives, and/or Short Stories To Answer These Questions






I would like to do something a bit different for the 31 days of worldbuilding challenge, you can do it as well, if you like. But, here's the thought I had: Here on my website are several pages (70+ at the moment and more get added all the time) devoted to different aspects of world building... (If it has no link yet, it's because it's still under 2,000 words so I've not set it to live yet. Google requires an article to be 2,000 words long before they will index it)...

...and I would like to answer these questions/prompts, for EACH aspect.

For example, answer Day 1 on the plant page, answering the question focused on the plants of the region, than answer Day 1 focused on the population, than answer Day 1 focused on fantasy creatures, and so on and so forth, etc.

As such these prompts will appear on each page of the series, but my answers on each page will be different.

And as there are 70+ pages that I'm putting this on (linked above) that means I will have to answer EACH of the 3 questions for each of the 31 Days + the 9 Bonus days 70+ times answering each differently. 

The challenge is actual 40 days, because it's 31 days + 9 bonus days. And each day has 3 questions. Meaning there are 120 questions total. 

40 x 70 = 2,800 days x 3 = 8,400 questions total.

40 x 70 = 2,800 days \ 365 = 7+ years to complete this task, if I did only 1 per day, the way the challenge says to do.

Sooooo...

Today is May 15, 2021.

This means it could take me up to 2028 or more to complete this challenge.

Well, let's get started then and see how long it takes me to complete this. Tjis is definitly going to be a long term work-in-progress.


If you would like to do this challenge on your own website or blog, head to the Reddit page for the prompt, under the post, click the "SHARE" button, click the "EMBED" button, the follow the instructions on Reddit's popup to create the type of code your website uses, than click "COPY" and paste the code Reddit gives you into the HTML box of your webpage/blog. Than type your answer under it.


If you would like to post your answer publicly or see the publicly posted answers of others, click on the links to head to Reddit and see the full prompt page of each prompt, submit your own answer on the thread, or read the answers of others.

Most of these prompts had 20 to 50 submissions, some have 100 to 200 or more, so there is quite a lot of answers on each if you are looking for a lot of worldbuilding Fantasy reading to do.

For each prompt, I've included 1 to 4 example submissions from others, also via Reddit's embed codes. If you enjoy a writer's sample, be sure to click on their username link, and check out ALL of their submissions on Reddit.

I've tried to choose examples only from writers whom have large samples of their work published online. Many of them have their own websites where they feature their work, most are published or working towards publication, while others are DnD Dungeon Masters who build vast worlds for their campaigns and post them on persona DnD blogs. 

They are all amazing writers, so be sure to check out their Reddit profiles for lists of links to their websites, blogs, WattPad/Deviant Art free-to-read-online accounts, SmashWords/Amazon profiles, web serials, etc. 

Many of them are self-published via Kindle, so if you like their work, be sure to support them by buying their Kindle and/or Kindle Paperback editions.


So, I was over on Reddit, you like I often am, and found this question. And answered it, like I do. However, the answer I initially gave was a simple generic answer. If you want to read my original answer unaltered, simply click on Reddit's embed feature links which Reddit provides for webmasters to be able to post their answers on their websites, while linking back to the original thread on Reddit (if you didn't know Reddit offered and encouraged the use of this feature, look for it in the "share" features underneath every post, comment, and reply on Reddit).

I am answering random questions today about world building, over on Reddit and decided to take my answers from there and expand upon them even further over here. So that's what this page is. Me rambling on about various aspects of world building techniques I use when writing the Quaraun series. The questions I am answering are embedded here. Clicking the link in the embedded question will take you to the original Reddit page where you can see the original answer along with other people's answers. If you wish to comment, you can do so on the Reddit page where a place to do so is provided.

In any case, as with all of my Reddit answers found on my site here, my original post on Reddit is much shorter then the article here.









Getting To Know Your World & It's People Using
31 Days of Worldbuilding Challenge!
Day 1 of 31:
Famous Townsperson(Local), River Basin(Region), Disputed Territory(World)

Edit: Day 2 is This way!

Well, technically 31+ days of worldbuilding prompts. The goal is to follow along each day and make at least one thing for your world based on one of the categories: Local Area, Regional Area, or Worldwide. That way, you can focus on what you need most for your world even if you don't have much time each day to work on stuff!

For my submissions, I'm going to try and do all three each day, but barring that, I'm going to focus on the local area category for the Region of El in my Nomads of Sky Setting, since I've got a campaign coming up there.

Famous Townsperson: Terrance Mortighast - A well known bounty hunter, but his age is starting to get to him. Not only has he been letting more and more bounties pass him by, but rumor has it that he doesn't even chase his quarry beyond of the Free Cities anymore.

River Basin: Wisp Willow Falls - This once-pristine feature has seen a lot of development over the years due to how readily Wisp Willow, A plant that normally only grows around the very edge of an island, grows there. The area now hails as one of El's primary Aerillium producers.

Disputed Territory: Fermia Archipelago - Known primarily for it's Red Metal Mines, the remoteness of this island chain means that it generally gets claimed by whichever country happens to be passing closest to it at the time. It is one of the few lands to travel near enough to the Maelstrom to be dangerous, though, which gives the island chain a brief period of respite every few years. An ironic sort of peace, really.

A Form of Contraband

Dreams are a commodity in many of the markets of my world. A bottled creature that will give you a pleasant night's sleep and a dream created by design. However the quality that these dreams have means they are also surprisingly expensive and addictive. Many people who run out of dreams seek out cheaper alternatives. Since the dreammarket is highly regulated these are not always entirely legal, let alone safe to use. They may incude nightmares or worse, create a permanent comatose state.

Not part of The 31 Days of Worldbuilding Challenge, here is another worldbuilding prompt that I'm going to add to this list, just because I want to answer it on these pages.



25 Blank Space Prompts for Cultures!

Here are twenty-five blank space prompts that you can use with just about any of your fictional cultures, factions or civilizations. You don't need to complete all of them, and I don't have any intended level of detail, length or seriousness to them.

I've tried to avoid making any particular references to any genre - but some of these may not apply to your setting. (For example, if your species doesn't eat food, then the food one is pretty irrelevant and you can skip it.)

If you want, you can only answer a couple and go for very silly and short completions, or you can go all out on each of them and use them as mini-prompts to include quite a hefty amount of serious lore and worldbuilding into them.

Regardless of how you use them, I hope you find them entertaining, useful or even inspiring, and I can't wait to see what you guys answer with! I'm hoping to see some absolutely crazy ones. I'll answer with one of my own cultures in the comments, as well, in case you need an example!


  1. We are ________.
  2. Welcome to ________, where we ________!
  3. The most important things in our culture are ________, ________ and finally, ________.
  4. Our most cherished traditions are ________, ________ and ________.
  5. We believe wholeheartedly in ________, but think that ________ is foolish.
  6. Our rivals have insulted us by ________, now it is time to ________!
  7. Our actions are justified by ________, of course.
  8. Upon meeting new cultures, we like to ________.
  9. Among us, outsiders are ________.
  10. Our civilization's crowning achievement is ________.
  11. We don't talk about ________, do not ask us about it.
  12. Our leaders are ________ and ________.
  13. In the presence of one's ________, one must ________.
  14. ________ is the best food there is!
  15. Yes, we ________, why do you ask?
  16. The best thing in life is ________.
  17. Only thing worse than ________ is ________.
  18. Where there's ________, there's always ________.
  19. Many ________, but few ________.
  20. ________, like ________ always used to ________.
  21. Always ________.
  22. Never ________.
  23. Remember ________!
  24. Respect the ________!
  25. In our language, we don't say "I love you," we say ________, which means ________, and I think that's beautiful. (Bonus: ________ - Real Translation)


As promised, here's an example using one of my own species from a sci-fi setting, the Keyterics! They're a little silly by design, given they're sort of a bunch of monkeys harnessing nuclear and tesla technology, getting drunk and doing neocolonialism.


  1. We are the Keyterics.
  2. Welcome to Keytero Vec, where we have a nuclear meltdown every week!
  3. The most important things in our culture are being friendly and gregarious, getting those gains, and finally, rampant alcoholism.
  4. Our most cherished traditions are wrestling socially, drinking together, and blowing things up.
  5. We believe wholeheartedly in sharing technology with less advanced civilizations, but think that not bringing them under our political influence and neocolonial empire in exchange for said technology is foolish.
  6. Our rivals have insulted us by calling us monkeys, now it is time to scream like monkeys!
  7. Our actions are justified by the free market, of course.
  8. Upon meeting new cultures, we like to shout and scream with enthusiasm and then invite them for a pint.
  9. Among us, outsiders are welcome, let's have a drink! Come to Keytero Vec! You are going to Keytero Vec! \picks you up by force**
  10. Our civilization's crowning achievement is splitting the atom.
  11. We don't talk about how we've allegedly destroyed the native environments of several pristine alien planets, do not ask us about it.
  12. Our leaders are corrupt and we like to watch them sword fight in the parliament.
  13. In the presence of one's friends, one must shout as loud as possible to express joy and love.
  14. Irradiated coyote cheese is the best food there is!
  15. Yes, we eat uranium, why do you ask?
  16. The best thing in life is booze, but food comes a close second.
  17. Only thing worse than alcohol withdrawal is the taste of an orange or a lemon.
  18. Where there's a Keyteric, there's always alcohol.
  19. Many talk about helping pre-Space Age alien civilizations, but few are willing to arm them with automatic weapons and bring them into space.
  20. Petrol moonshine, like granpa always used to make in his improvized brewery.
  21. Always help the less fortunate.
  22. Never do anything for free.
  23. Remember to have a glass of alcohol with every meal!
  24. Respect the man who brought the drinks to the party!
  25. In our language, we don't say "I love you," we say "Drok khayi trak udzhyum, byu?" which means "You know I couldn't live without you, right?" and I think that's beautiful. (Real Translation: Something along the lines of "We'll bang, okay?")

America somehow now exists in your world. How does it react? What does your society think of it?

Being very arguably the world's most powerful nation, it's no surprise that the rest of the world's countries have a lot of very, very, VERY diverse opinions on America. If the United States suddenly existed in your world somehow, what would its people / nations think of it?


  • Would they try to invade?
  • Would they think Americans are heretics? An inferior race?
  • Would they submit to America's cultural exports and influence? Would they enjoy Coca-Cola?
  • How would they react to America's foreign policies and history of militarism and imperialism?
  • Would Americans be welcome in their nation?
  • How would your world react to America's technology?

Are there any oddball/eccentric characters in your world? And if yes what about them is so odd.

Example from one of my world's: the earl is a old man living alone in a castle in the north lands. There he collects unfinished pieces of art be they painting, pieces of music, literary works, statues or the like as long as they are unfinished he will collect them. He treats the pieces of art like abandoned or orphaned children, telling them that they are perfect the way they are and that he loves them no matter what.

If you ever made fun of or had any part in the murder of my son, your child shall die an equally horrible death.

Evil men go out of their way to try to drive a person to suicide.

Are you an evil man?

Are you sure you're not?

How many people have YOUR hate filled words killed?

Next time you go to do a mean thing to a fellow human, stop and really think about the consequences of your actions.

Did you ever notice how every one has a story to tell about me, yet not one of them ever speaks the truth?

What lies has YOUR gossiping tongue spread about me?

Did you know...

October 16, 2006, bomb blew up my house because of YOUR lies.

August 8, 2013, the house which replaced the one the bomb blew up, was driven over by a backhoe.

November 14, 2013, my 8 month old infant son was murdered because of your lies.

November 14, 2013, I was beaten up, paralized for 5 months, spent 18 weeks relearning to walk, I'm now crippled for the rest of my life, because of YOUR lies.

Are you proud of what you have done?

Enjoy your eternity in Hell. You earned it. You've certainly worked hard for it.

If you have any information about any of these events, please call FBI Agent Andy Drewer at 207-774-9322



Please Note: The Quaraun Series Is SplatterPunk Horror Gorn Rated M18+ for extreme graphic violence, grizzly depictions of suicide, and you must be 18 or older to buy it if you live in America, Japan, Australia, Germany, or any other country with government laws regulating explicit media

Why is the Quaraun Series Rated M18+?

I repeat, there is a MASSIVE TRIGGER WARNING for the Quaraun series, as it is 200+ volumes, 8 million+ words of steady, endless, non-stop suicide, suicide references, depression, and suicidal characters attempting suicide in nearly every chapter of every volume!

Don't be fooled by the pink covers. The Quaraun series has won awards for being among the darkest novels ever published.

It's one of the few series so dark, so disturbing, so gory, so bloody, and so focused on putting suicide in your face that on January 6, 2016 the American government has issued a court order declaring I was required to put M18+ book rating on the cover.


If you have any questions regarding this court order issued by the Old Orchard Beach, Maine Town Hall, an division of the American Government,  which violates the first amendment, where we are clearly told the government can not censor freedom of speech, please head to the State of Maine, Biddeford District Court and ask for copies of

Docket #BDDC-PA-2015-00574 and CV-15-58/CV-15-59

the Alfred Superior Court Docket #CV-15-299

and the Portland Superior Law Court Docket #YOR-15-253

Additionally, you can find more information by going to the Old Orchard Beach Police Department and requesting copies of ALL police reports made in regards to 144, 146, and 146a Portland Avenue, from 2001 to 2016 (approximately 300 reports).

The Quaraun Series On Amazon:

I am wondering why has Amazon moved the Quaraun books to the category "Transgender Romance" and also "Gay Erotica"? The base story is a deeply depressed, suicidal, drug addict Elf who's lover commit suicide and he's trying not to do the same. It's an old Elf in a tavern, monologuing a lot of flashbacks and back story scenes of his youth. These stories are dark, bloody, angsty, full of drug use, murder, rape, Medieval torture, mental/physical/emotional abuse, and references to depression and suicide - no romance in it, unless you count the occasional (and usually brutally violent) rape scenes that show up in nearly every volume - sorry - no clue what Amazon is thinking or why they moved these to Romance and Erotica, but these books are NOT even close to being Romance or Erotica on any level at all. When I published these books I put them in "Dark Fantasy" and "Yaoi". If they show up in any category other then "Dark Fantasy" and "Yaoi", it's because Amazon put them there without my authorization or approval.
