…quickly
Ok, so here are the poll results from the latest poll. You know, the one that only TWO PEOPLE filled out (not counting my answers). Anyway, better late than never. New poll will go up tomorrow.
In what 3 ways do the human cultures differ from their real world archetypes?
Pirates: Amazonian, they use sentient airships, no gunpowder
Imperial Romans: Disdain magic as a solution to anything, no slaves, universal education (strongly enforced)
Aztecs: Werecreatures are sacred (some jaguar knights are jaguar knights), albino race, located in the far north
Imperial Chinese: The Imperial Family is long dead (but bureaucracy runs as if they were still living), avowed vegetarians, atheists
Vikings: Tropical natives similar to Hawaiians, rigid caste system, very long lived
Arthurian British: Only women can be knights, only men can use magic, universal equality otherwise
Victorian British: Steampunky, addicted to secret and magical societies, more openly sexual
Comments?
To be honest, I’m not very excited about the recent Fantasy Worldbuilding Polls. I found the pulp ones more interesting (and less superficial in their coverage), and therefore more likely to get a response from me.
Perhaps going into a bit more depth with some of your previous postings, and inviting more narrative collaboration than simply voting on a poll would get more response.

Hmmm…I’ve been considering opening all this fantasy world stuff up to discussion. I was going to do one more poll, but I think I’ll skip it.
Expect a big recap and the start of discussion soon.
