There's been great suggestions already!

Here are my submissions:

Tell us your ideal reading environment - e.g. what does it look like, sound like, busy cafe, or quiet park, inside/outdoors, etc.

Share your favourite bookstore - what makes you keep going back!

What string-of-sentences (or phrase) is memorable to you, and why.

Grab the nearest book, open to page 32, share a sentence that has the most meaning and why do you find it meaningful? (e.g. "the trees wept as the rain ended" - it's meaningful to me because rains aren't coming back for years and climate change stuff)

Introduce us to your library - what interesting perks does it have, what were you surprised by, what event did you attend there recently?

What do you consider to be the best animal to star in a junior's book.

Happy reading :)

It was 2007, I was a teen sleeping on the floor of the new house we moved into. Internet wasn't set up, nor was my bedroom. My Mum's partner (at the time) had a collection of books that I rummaged through for entertainment since, you know, no internet :(

I ended up snatching the book called Daggerspell and was surprised at how engaged I would be. The book, Daggerspell, is authored by Katharine Kerr, and is part of her Deverry series.

Daggerspell was my introduction to the fantasy genre and kept me hooked! The book covered so many different ideas too - romance, feuds, dark scary magic, etc.

The story follows the protagonist through many generations, whom is unable to die until he fixes fate (which he messed up, oops). The story is presented with a main "timeline", with little short stories showing the protagonist's attempts at fixing fate in previous century/decades.

I'd highly recommend it, the world is imaginative, the nature of magic is creative, and there's a whole series to read!

I wasn't much of a reader before, but Daggerspell grabbed my attention, and ignited my geeky interests in fantasy.

Gotta go with the romance approach with this! :D

What NPC would your Arisen romance?

There are plenty of NPCs living their lives in Vermund and Battah, and many are waiting for the Arisen to sweep them off their feet.

Players are given the option to search for already met NPCs, showing their favourite gifts, and even letting you favourite them (almost like a dating profile, right?)

Who would be the perfect match for your Arisen? Maybe your Arisen caught the eye of the blacksmith during a trade, or perhaps the Arisen scoured the forest for their pointy eared elf.

Whether your Arisen found love, or is single and ready to mingle - we'd like to hear about it!

In 100 words or more, tell us:

Who has captured the Arisen's heart? How did the two meet? What does a happily-ever-after look like for the Arisen and their lover.

Barred doors are a common encounter during the adventure. A good angle and a bow will let you shoot the plank of wood barring the door - e.g. shooting the plank through a window.

During the adventure you may come across a pair of daggers that shine and beep when the user is near a treasure chest. Pawns using these daggers when walking the roads of other worlds still receive the effect of the daggers - so if you see a random rogue beeping and flashing, treasure's about!

Pawns can be hired by other players, allowing your pawn to gain world/quest knowledge, completing pawn quests, and earn some spending. To have a better chance at your pawn being hired by another player, ensure you rest at an inn when you upgrade your pawns equipment and abilities. Resting at an inn will let your pawns' data be saved, keeping it up-to-date for other players.

Setting a pawn quest with a good reward will encourage players to hire your pawn. You can take advantage of the shop that creates replicas of items and use them as quest rewards - the 'fake' version of the item in your world becomes 'real' when gifted to pawns, and possibly the same for quest rewards - e.g. replicating your stamina beetle creates fake beetle, fake beetle becomes real when gifted.

If the starting area is anything like Gran Soren in Dragon Dogma, I'll be dying a dozen times from climbing the rooftops looking for treasure, fall damage is a tough boss!

We've seen video games with cats (Stray), dolphins (Ecco), and even looked after our little Nintendogs... but what about turtles?

Turtles deserve the spotlight, not just because they're adorable, but because their habitat has continued to decline. Their homes are threatened by the continued development of coastal areas, invasive and foreign species, human recreation, and the rising sea levels.

My video game wish takes the form of being a turtle, viewing the world similar to the scale of Grounded (small kid in bug-size surviving the wilds of your back yard). I would imagine it would take place on coastal areas, with access to the ocean or waterways, with emphasis on the dangers our little turtle pal will face -e.g. hotel resort expanding into our little home, oil spills causing baddies to relocate and take our little turtle pal's home, or sneaky birds trying to take our little baby turtles!

Anyhow, the question is whether we should be a turtle on four legs, or an upright turtle standing on two legs (like ninja turtles, the old school ones not the weird new design). It's important to decide, because if we're on two legs standing up -- should we have 3d platforming elements to overcome in order to traverse the storm drains of Melbourne in order to find our way back home (or find our mate)?

There's many different avenues we can take it, but an emphasis should be placed on the present dangers that turtles are facing and the fatal consequence of extinction. Heck, we could make it a turtle going through existential dread due to the realisation of very sudden extinction... or is that too close to home?
