    This Althanian Life

    Since I intend to do more than one episode (and I hope to get this thread stickied here), I'm going to open up the show to the community for volunteers, as well as ideas for episodes. So far, I have:

    01) Sapphosaurus Rex: The Fallacy of PbP Amazonomachy. Or Women on Althanas and Fantasy Roleplaying.
    02) Canon Fodder: The Root of Fantasy Race Lore and Althanas. (Guests: Christoph, Otto, Zook)
    03) Crossing the Rubicon: The Line of Villainy and Violence on Althanas (Guests: Aurelianus, BlackandBlueEyes, Manda)
    ?) ???: Probably something to do with sex and character relationships. (Philomel, Luned, ?)
    ?) Cultural Appropriation (Guests: Christoph, Luned, Flames)
    ?) Powergroups (Guests: Lye, Silence Sei, Cards of Fate)
    ?) Inspiration (And Maybe Plagarism) (Guests: Mage Hunter, Luned?, Cards of Fate?, ?)
    ?) Fantasy Powers and Abilities (Guests: Lye, Cards of Fate)
    ?) Joke Characters?


    I'm putting it to you Althanas! I want some new ideas for topics.

    And I want a wide and varied range of guests willing to appear on the show. I'm not sure when we'll get to them, but whenever we can make time, we'll schedule something. All I ask is that you have a functioning microphone, and are willing to record on google hangouts.

    Potential Guests:
    • Erirag (Manda) - 03) Crossing the Rubicon
      Zook (Matt) - 02) Fantasy Race one
      Mage Hunter (Pat) - ??) Inspiration and Plagiarism
      Philomel (Ailsa) - ??) Sex and Relationships
      Luned (Sarah) - ??) Sex and Relationships, ??) Inspiration and Plagiarism
      Lye (Jack) - ??) Powergroups, ??) Fantasy Powers and Abilities
      Cards of Fate (Fred) - ??) Powersgroups, ??) Fantasy Powers and Abilities, ??) Inspiration and Plagiarism
      Silence Sei (Cal) - ??) Powergroups

    "The man who is to be great is the one who can be the most solitary, the most hidden, the most deviant, the man beyond good and evil, lord of his virtues, a man lavishly endowed with will - this is precisely what greatness is to be called: it is able to be as much a totality as something multi-faceted, as wide as it is full."

    As I said in chat, I'd love to take part in a discussion of fantasy races, if I can fit in with the already awkward timing.

    I would be down for inspiration and plagiarism.

    Cultural appropriation would be a topic I'd be interested in hearing about.

    Sex and relationships? Well yeah. Also maybe inspiration/plagiarism? I've got a modest background in IP stuff.

    Seconding a discussion on abilities, their perceived importance, tropes involving them, and how to craft your character's ability suite in a fashion that allows you to do more with less.

    I can add to abilities if you'll have me. Powergroups as well.
