Do you research much for your stories, both on Althanas and off?

[Kitsune]

I don't do much conscious research. I do get ideas from watching YouTube a lot, but I don't actually do much research unless something actually requires it.

I haven't written here yet, but just on my soon coming character and his back story, I've done a lot of research. I love researching both on and off Althanas. For example, after spending some time reading the wiki pages to find out how my character might fit into this world, I spent additional time learning about conifer trees, serotiny, electromagnetism and hyperaccumulators because these subjects play a role in what I'm trying to do with my character. To me, it's fun and generates a lot of ideas.
