I am finally back to my World Builder Series! I took a long hiatus from it but I think it's time I breathed life back into this. Today's topic is about creating races, whether that's humans, merfolk, centaurs or talking rocks, you need to come up with different races to populate your world.

How To Build Your World: Fauna

On 8 July 201631 January 2026 By AriIn Tutorials, World Building, Writing Tips6 Comments

So we are back with the World Building Series again. Last week I covered Flora (plants) and this week, it's Fauna (animals). I even included a little special bonus at the end of this article. 🙂 If you are building a world, the chances are you are going to want animals. Even ice planets can have species (think Tauntauns from Hoth).
