| Sep 10, 2019 at 18:50 | comment | added | vicky_molokh | @James I'm aiming for advice towards building a rather specific type of world, one where supernatural creatures conspire behind the backs, hidden from muggles, and have the typical Wainscot split into groups by creature type and faction. I'm not looking for just generic creature advice. Thus the talk about wainscot settings and the examples from White Wolf. | |
| Sep 10, 2019 at 18:47 | comment | added | James | Ironically the wainscot concept has absolutely nothing to do with your question. Your question boils down to: I don't want to use pre-existing imaginary creatures, how do I create a creature from scratch? Or perhaps more precisely: are there existing processes/checklists for creating fantasy creatures from scratch with the intent to avoid making them too much like extant creatures? | |
| Sep 10, 2019 at 18:42 | comment | added | James | To make it clear to people answering: a wainscot is a secondary society living "behind the walls" so to speak. The trope name actually comes from wainscoting, as in the wood paneling. The most obvious example of this is muggle society in Harry Potter. My personal favorite is the greek mythological world behind the scenes in the Percy Jackson series. | |
