@highfantasy Well, my favourite epic fantasy is, of course, Tolkien, and while romance is not something he explores well, it’s telling that on the headstone of his and his wife’s grave it calls them Béren and Luthien, a deeply romantic pairing.
          	  But it’s also said his characterisations are lacking, taking a back seat to world building and language, but I think that’s unfair. Middle Earth is filled with inter-character relationships that drive the stories and are very complex and deep. Sometimes it takes more than one read to really understand them, but it’s worth it.

@highfantasy In my world (and very similarly Discworld), a bunch of mages twitching irritably on chairs, fumbling for tobacco pouches that have been confiscated, and witches sitting cross armed and refusing that they need any help whatsoever.

@highfantasy Tolkien's Middle Earth and Martin's Westeros.

@highfantasy I want to say ‘Discworld’, because it’s *always* ‘Discworld’ for me, but …
            
            For the sheer depth of worldbuilding to a scale unseen by *any* other, it has to be Tolkien and Middle Earth. Others have made incredible worlds and incredible lore, but Middle Earth was the singular vision of one man in an age where such things simply did not exist.
            
            Every fantasy world since, from Martin, to Sanderson, Jordan, games such as the Elder Scrolls and D&D, even She Who Must Not Be Named, all stand on JRR Tolkien’s shoulders.

Hi everyone, and happy new year!
          
          Kaiddance here, making a call for anyone dedicated to High Fantasy who can run the profile with me. 
          
          I’ve had a lot of health and personal issues I’ve been sorting, and I can’t find anyone to run the profile. I really don’t want it to disappear into the void, and I’d appreciate anyone willing to take the reins and keep this beloved community going. 
          
          You can find me in our community discord server. Link is in the bio.

@highfantasy If we're talking a high civilization with a lot of magic, there could be CSI Magic techs who can sense the auras, detect spell components, look at fireball blast patterns and such. Truth spells might be used on witnesses, and judges might be things like Sphinxes. Could be pretty interesting :-) 
            
            And now I feel like I have to write that ;-)

@highfantasy  Their is a place in epic fiction for truly unredeemable evil villains, but there is something more intriguing about villains whose motivations are relatable, even noble in concept, but they justify truly evil methods to obtain them

Hello, High Fanatics!
          
          I’m speaking to you as @Kaiddance and not the profile itself. 
          
          Wattpad dropped every non major genre profile a few years back, giving the profiles back to the community. I have tried to run this profile on my own, and I love you all so much for your support but I am from only a single person. 
          
          Please, if there is anyone willing to help me run and revitalize this profile, I am begging you for help. I work full time at the expense of my writing career because I’ll be real: unless you’re Stephen King or JK Rowling (yes, I understand she’s problematic), or Tolkien, writing doesn’t pay the bills. Unless you’re that one in a million writer on Wattpad who is part of the golden children and their flagship franchises, you’re screwed. 
          
          But I’m here FOR the writers. I am here because you and this profile MATTER. But I can’t do this alone. 
          
          Please reach out to me on discord as Kaiddance. I am not difficult to find. You can join our official discord here: 
          
          https://discord.gg/bC7a2vQet3
          
          I’m not abandoning High Fantasy, but without help, things will go a little slow. 
          
          Thank you all for your patience and support.

@highfantasy I’ve been worrying about this for days because I honestly would love to help because I think there’s a place for this profile, but I’m just not in a position where I can and it’s frustrating. Having said that, if it’s too much for you and you find you need to step back from it, I’d totally understand.
