forum Worldbuilding Discussion: Ideas and Concepts

I set my world in an alternate 1800s Earth because I wanted to blend fantasy and reality. A world I know, with magic and romance that is different and fun to write about

If this discussion thread isn't entirely dead- I need some help with naming a faction in my world! I have all the ranks and roles already, I just can't seem to find a suitable name. It's entirely a faction of doctors/plague doctors. They're definitely morally grey and I'm on the fence to have a splinter faction be necromancers. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated!

First thing that comes to mind is The Requiem (Mass of death) of Asclepius (Greek god of medicine)

Oo, I really like The Requiem actually! I'll probably end up using that one! It really fits the kind of 'law/religion cult' I've got in my head for these guys! Appreciate the suggestions!

My world is completely unbalanced. Supers, wizards, aliens, and mad science ravage a futuristic alternate Earth. The only reason the universe hasn't permanently imploded yet is because powerful forces keep canceling each other out. (:

Query I've been trying to figure out: where would one be able to find and possibly steal the written instructions on how to build something such as a ballista? Like where would those plans have been kept back in the day when they used ballistas?

I want to collab with someone… I'm new to worldbuilding and this site
I have some ideas but nothing concrete…. :)
