What are some fantasy character concepts based on modern occupations and hobbies?
For example:
- phlebotomist is a vampire
- hobbyist maker is an artificer
- arborist is a druid
- dog trainer is a beast master
- Bartender is a poisoner
And what about locations and services?
For example:
- Dentist’s office is a tooth cult temple
- Cellphone store is a familiar breeder/vendor
- ChatGPT is an oracle, possibly a medium for communicating with a demon who gives bad advice
Birds as pilots? Either as in you’re riding on their back or in some sort of carrier that they can hold, which is a concept I have played around with. Or as what I envisioned for the modern age of my animals world, birds are more likely to pilot aircrafts than other animals because their brains are already adapted to flight and can pick up the training on flying aircraft really quickly.
