Watching a video about Blackout, an Erika Chappell RPG and realising that maybe history in Izzy's World, while of course meticulously researched and documented, but as a fantasy setting first, should be recounted orally by the survivor generation, the now elderly generation of those who participated, often against their will, during the many conflicts of the Great Conflict.

#Mostly because it adds to the Southeast Asian vibe of history being orally passed down #and giving the history a face to relate to rather than just the sterile documentation via Calculated Understanding #mun speaks

Realizing that the computers of this setting wouldn't work like sillica based computing.

A major problem that I haven't quite gotten around to solving it trying to make the flying ring computers make sense thematically.

Why have weirdass computers like these instead of normal ones? What makes these more special other than they have a weird set up.

A while ago I made the joke that appearance wise they're suppose to mimic ancient astrologists looking up to the stars for answers.

And then recently it struck me.

Why not just extend the metaphor into the literal?

The machines work by accessing the noosphere, a global collective consciousness, and by having it closer to heaven they can get a better answer faster.

They're not electric calculators; they're fantasy search engines.

... I really ought to draw up a map of the city to get a good idea of how the city and surrounding areas are divided.

Seeing another person's worldbuilding and realizing obviously the Guild of Farmers and Out-City Workers wouldn't be a traditional guild at all.

In fact, the farmers and out-city workers would be multiple different vaguely an-com polities.

They still have a representative guild to help sort out business in the city but otherwise they'd all be of different individual communes.

Very, very quickly realising the utility of having a separate entity to loredump because a major problem I had years ago back when I was in the RP scene fully was waiting for people to ask the right questions.

Now I can just say all I want and then tuck it away in a tag and it doesn't get in the way of anything.

God damn.

*Warble*

What Izzy is referring to is the Great War, the catch-all term for a decade long series of armed conflict over the remaining sources of natural gas and crude oil.

The city runs mostly on solar and wind farms, while smaller power plants such as backup generators and cars run on ethanol, derived from local biomass processing. The country also imports excess geothermal energy from its more volcanicly active neighbors from the south.

What’s the main source of power in your world? Have they discovered a new method for generating energy or rely on older methods instead?

What a weird question to ask.

Well, I know that most of the city runs on wind farms and solar farms if that's what you're asking.

Certainly not older methods tho. At least, natural gas hasn't been in fashion for more than half a century as far as I'm aware.

Question for the universe: does Bruno Mars is gay?

Rumors unclear.

#Shitpost #I'll humor you this one time but you don't ask Universal Knowledge or Calculated Understanding directly #They're here in case the question you're asking is too big for Izzy to answer

[askizzypleasures]

Gonna take a page from Disco Elysium again and introduce these two:

On the left is Calculated Understanding, who will show up to help explain what has been discovered and understood by the people of the setting (tech and history).

On the right is Universal Knowledge, who will show up to explain things that haven't been discovered (the finer inner workings of the setting like how Magic actually functions and other details.)

They'll be here to help supplement some questions that Izzy wouldn't be capable of explaining plus coloring in details in a hopefully fun way.

Ask for Izzy: what sort of "car" do you drive (and how did you manage to fit in one in the first place)

*Pointedly ignoring the fat joke, and then realising something odd*

"Car"? Oh you probably meant "autocarriage"!

I drive a Model G-H '84 with parts from Kudas Auto-Carriages Parts and General Milling! I saved up a lot to get the kit and built it over a year!

Ask for Izzy: Would you care to try this new eclair recipe? (not guaranteed to be free from extremely high calorie additives)

Really huh?

Well then

Maybe you should try it instead~ In case of any bad chemicals or whatever. You wouldn't wanna feed a bad batch to lil ol would you? How'd that be for your conscience?

Right got some commission work out of the way. Let's see about those asks.

#Mun Speaks

[askizzypleasures]

Actually you know what maybe I should try answering and giving this blog some love.

Now do I draw some answers or do I go back to playing Satisfactory?

#Mun Speaks #Satisfactory #the realization of having to make another megafactory to produce nuclear fuel #with a robust freight infrastructure to run everything on time and safely #caught me off guard so hard I panicked #forgot how to organize factories and save/quit the game on the spot

[askizzypleasures]

Now do I draw some answers or do I go back to playing Satisfactory?

#Mun Speaks #I'm not over this cold yet but the worst of its over #Maybe I should just do more Satisfactory because I'd hate to draw with this mental fog

[askizzypleasures]

It'd be nice to answer some of these asks from these lovely people if it weren't for the weather giving me a cold. :(

#self-reblop: for the morning crew

[askizzypleasures]

Its been a long while since I've done something like this.

I'll probably use this blog primarily for loredumps and sharing doodles related to Izzy and the headworld she occupies (this is where the "hurr hurr she's as fat as the world" jokes come in)

But feel free to send me asks either towards Izzy, about Izzy or the about the world she lives in!
