Carta Galaxia Development Update #6
Hello all you wonderful, supportive people. It’s been a bit of a crummy two weeks writing-wise. It’s been a struggle to get words on the page, kinda thing. I’m working at getting a good pace going again.
Faction Spotlight: Heirs of Taaj
I’ve uploaded a new faction spotlight for the Heirs of Taaj. They are the remnants of the old empire, noble houses who use their wealth and influence to rebuild the “age of nobility”.
This is one of the situations where I have to censor my own biases. The first draft of these guys was way too unambiguously evil, and I had to go back and make things more neutral. The whole “At Their Best” section helps with that, but the rest of the text needed to be a bit more neutral and academic about their outlook. I know I won’t succeed in expunging all of my own biases, but I can at least make an effort to give them a fair shake. Like every other faction, this faction will be the closest thing to The Good Guys in someone’s game.
Interestingly, their schemes ended up pretty positive, benign or only slightly evil.
What’s Next
Next I’ll start on the Dai’Rho, the drug-religion of the wandering warrior monks.

Looks good! It makes me want to own the final book.
