Re: CBB Conlang Relay XVIII - Signups open

I’ve always wanted to do a relay, but my languages are never developed enough and the length of the translation texts is always daunting.

Oh that’s smart. I’ve tried to make fonts before with some font creators but it seems a lot easier to create them in another program and import them.

From my quick research, it seems to me just like a kind of dependent clause restriction.

Re: CBB Soft High Fantasy World

Seems like an interesting dwarf stand in and since they live underground they wouldn't really interact much with other races probably even less so than our Jellyfish people. Probably would work better as a type of spirit though. I'd note other any other races at this point should be Beastfolk a.k.a...

Troll languages: Since trolls can’t breathe, their language is percussive, meaning they strike different part of their body together. Some troll cultures use sign language, although this is more rare. There are 3 main sounds: orals, hits, & stomps. Orals: Stops: Chomping (C), teeth slapping with...

Re: CBB Soft High Fantasy World

I’m already doing my conworld & the other collaborative conworld in here, but I guess I’ll give this one a try too. I would like to add trolls as a new race. They stand on average about 10 ft for males & 8 ft for females. They have a stone-like body, have enormous strength, & live underg...
