I Cannot Recommend This Show Enough Btw

Since we’re a few posts into this; The Feylands is a continent! I’d personally say it’s larger than Australia- or a little bit more I’m not good at sizes.

And it has a map! That I’ve redraw 3 times over the years!

Some features on the map are up for changes, like City markers being more prominent and caves/ being spruced up. There are tons of little spots around that are a bit too small to place- small ponds and streams and so.

A more wordy post because I don’t know how to draw buildings. Only one image for Drakes.

Architecture, in general, is varied due to the nature of the Feyfolks’ variety in size, body shape, and species. Most Architecture is spacious and wide, with wide areas for air landings and take-offs.

Architecture, in general, uses the land around it: growing trees into dens and homes, carving homes out of mountains, ravines, and sinkholes, and Finding sanctuary in underwater cliffs, ravines, and coralline structures. Their architecture prefers to take and give back to nature.

Drakes use a lot of fire as it’s a vital tool for them. It’s highly desired by most (if not all) of the feyfolk enjoy. They love knowing a firebreather because then they don’t have to hire a specialist, they could just exchange favors.

In the lower sections they dig out enough room for seperate rooms for (similarly aged) Children and the Parents.

Food storage is full of shelves, jars and crates to hold spices, herbs and dried meats. The extended pantry + a colder lower storage. They don’t have fridges but they do Ike to pack away snow and ice into this area and locking it away. Cooking wares and cooking is done elsewhere, such as the entrance or a Separate area completely.

Housing is a place to relax after working out and about, not really to host folks unless folks are family. It’s meant to be safe and relaxing, decorated how they want and potentially raise kids in.

Recommendations for societies with mixed halfling/human races follow. The average halfling is assumed, from demographic estimates, to weigh 30 pounds (14 kg) and stand approximately 3 feet (1 meter) tall.

All public places where people are expected to be seated need a mix of regular/small seating. Ideally, all chairs and tables will be adjustable, but this comes with cost considerations.

All doors must be accessible for people of all sizes. This presents a challenge for doorknobs and door handles, and the recommendation is a long vertical bar accessible for both, along with low "minimum force" levels for opening and closing. Problems with locking mechanisms remain, and while floor bolts are height-neutral, they're more suited to secondary locking mechanisms.

All restaurants, cafeterias, and vending machines should stock two differently sized portions. The average halfling consumes roughly a third the amount of food as a human. Because of various frictions (packaging, labor), prices are expected to be more than one third for a halfling portion. Because of this, it's best to have systems in place that allow splitting human-sized dishes, or bringing home leftovers, or making packages resealable.

Housing presents a serious problem. A single-family dwelling for a halfling family requires roughly one fifth the volume as for a single-family human dwelling, though costs do not scale down at the same rate. However, if built to halfling scale, the interior of the dwelling will only be accessible to halflings, which presents serious problems for e.g. police, firefighters, social workers, repairmen, or anyone else who might have cause to go into the interior of the home, to say nothing of friends and coworkers. Building for halfling scale is attractive for a variety of reasons, with cost being one of the biggest, but this might result in de facto segregation, and puts considerable strain on civic infrastructure and city markets due to duplication. Another social concern is that all interactions might, by default, take place inside human homes which have worse accommodations for halflings. Special note should also be made of mixed-species couples, who suffer extra burdens within the household. These problems are intractable, as some trade-off must always be made.

Tools, household goods, and clothing are naturally split into two markets. For clothing, near-complete segregation is expected. For everything else, partial segregation is expected: a halfling cannot effectively use many human tools due to differences in grip strength and grip circumference, to say nothing of brute strength. However, many consumables can suit both species, and it's expected that cost reduction efforts will inevitably result in a single offering for both in cases where that makes remotely makes sense. Purchases using refillable containers from bulk are encouraged, as each person can determine what's best to fulfill their own needs.

Due to lower costs (housing, food, clothing), halflings can in theory work for lower wages. For certain jobs, particularly those requiring physical strength, humans are more capable on average, and for others, particularly those requiring manual dexterity, halflings are more capable on average. For jobs which do not have significant differences, wage discrimination is recommended by contentious, and is an ongoing conversation.

There are a number of "segregationist forces" in society, driven by convenience, culture, and market forces. Once segregation has become, there is every expectation that it will snowball: a neighborhood which is inaccessible to humans will have businesses that cater only to halflings, and once halfling business is concentrated, any "mixed" business has less incentive to cater to halflings. Legislation can counterbalance these forces by requiring that all businesses be able to service both humans and halflings, and accommodate both human and halfling services, but this admittedly comes at enormous cost.

Overall, there are certain recommendations that are nearly costless and can be implemented as best practices immediately, and more complicated, costly reforms that will take significant political will and budgetary consideration. Beyond that, there are questions of social engineering and the level to which it is important or preferable that these things be done.

Love a woman with a tail. Something she can betray her emotions with, something to dress up in fun little accessories, and something I can grab during... heh, well, you know.

Some Draconic generals before I dive into Wyverns and the other folks!

Since both dragons and drakes exist in Feys; the collective term is draconic for all four large reptile/mammals.

Added stuff under cut

I also imagine the Feathered wyverns speak in a different manner compared to other cities. It’s very loud where they originate, so perhaps communication closer to Morse code but spoken. It’s why Elysi Uki’Hest last name has that odd Apostrophe: a written ‘click’ of the tongue.

Wyverns live with the others cities along with the other species just fine in current times.

Hey you ever think about The Characters so much to the point where

“Yeah I listen to all kinds of music” and their playlist is always filled with Will Wood, Tally Hall, THD, Jack Stauber, Chonny Jash, Jhariah, and Lemon Demon.

I made an acc for fic/art ideas if anyone’s interested! Just thought I’d post here just incase. It’s @hare-brained-schemes
