Thumbs up I require everyone's help or if not some people's help... :)

Ahoy Everybody, I'm writing a fan-fiction story about Raven's Cove Island but I need some geological features aka is it scary looking e.t.c.? Basically I've got a bit of "Writer's Block" meaning I have a lot of ideas, and I need some help writing my story. If anyone can help me please respond to this forum. I will credit you as one of the authors for the section of the book that I am doing. Thank you very much.

My suggestion is make those features as vague and abstract as possible. Keep in mind that this place will be released and it may destroy all that you wrote. Remember that what might be "scary looking" for you might not be for a reader.

Good Luck.

My advice you may already know but we all like different genres of stories so its good to make a poll of what genres of what people like on the forums. Adjectives like bang, boom, etc. But nothing with "rice cake words" as I call them what means words that are commonly used. Maybe put in the story like of the fog in the beginning of the story and your unable to dock. Realism is the key so add things that exist in the game and all. Hope this helps .

The best thing to do, is put your ideas of Raven's Cove. Like, is it going to hold a secret unicorn meadow inside?

What you could do, so not to conflict with the real Raven's Cove, is you can put a "secret" place that nobody else can visit on the island. Ex.: A secret cave that requires you to push at certain points and spread bone dust on it. You could easily put a curse with this.

Good luck!

Did someone say pixies?! If I were you, add just enough to keep people guessing. A high cliff-side, perhaps. Swirl everything in mist, at least if you're writing about the Raven's Cove of today.

Aye, I have test server, very foggy and dark, dead skeletons, cliffs, rocks, fallen barricades, and remains of a small town.

Red orbs floating around in the air. A huge black ghost ( El Patron ) lives (can it be called living?) there.
