@highfantasy when their reasons make sense, or when their motivation is fueled by something more than just revenge, maybe some envy or love.

@TheOneAndOnlyCup I agree, their motivations have to make sense for me to like them.

          May is here, which means it's Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month (AAPIHM)! AAPIHM is a time to celebrate Asian and Pacific Islander history and culture. We understand such a time cannot be contained within a month, so we have curated a reading list dedicated to highlighting Asian and Pacific Islander voices in the Wattpad community. To access the full list, please visit this link here: 
          
          https://www.wattpad.com/list/1569256509
          
          We also recommend checking out our AAPIHM contest, inspired by Asian and Pacific Islander culture. Favorite submissions written by Asian and Pacific Islander authors will earn an opportunity be featured on the participating profiles, including @APIFantasy and @APIRomance: https://www.wattpad.com/1442415159-asian-american-pacific-islander-heritage-month

Hail, High Fanatics!
          
          You will notice we have slowly begun to add stories to our reading lists again as we go through the old and current submissions. Most of the reading lists will remain the same; however, some names might change as we breathe new life into the profile. We've also added a PRIDE list, so if you've got a Queer High Fantasy story you'd like to share, we want to read it!
          
          To submit to our reading lists, simply fill out this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd3Pg1y6EWGH3VNljbpvbJ3OSnvue173Ri8rl5pVH3JEksrrA/viewform
          
          Also, we do have a discord (which we'll be announcing with our posts for awhile as people continue to filter into the community), which you can find here: https://discord.gg/bC7a2vQet3
          
          Happy Questing!

@highfantasy  obsessed with greek mythology and dragons are my favourite animal!

My favourite magical creature for as long as I can remember has been dragons - I love the different forms they take in different cultures. They are a key feature in my stories and have their own voice and personalities. I am most aware of Celtic, Norse and Greek/Roman mythology and find an idea of pantheon much more interesting than a single deity . I would like to learn more about other mythologies

@CatherineFallon Can’t go wrong with dragons.
            
            I also love that the Celts had powerful female figures.

Hail High Fanatics and Happy Friday!
          
          It's time for our Question of the Week, submitted by @itsjessmurrell :
          In a world where the moon's phases affect magic, which phase would enhance your magical abilities the most, and how would you harness its power?

@highfantasy @itsjessmurrell Witches use the moons energy a lot in their rituals. Depending on the time of the cycle, it is good for certain spells. For example, a new moon is great for new beginnings. Crystals can also be charged by the moon - a full moon is preferable here. The main character in my first book "Rose" is a witch and attends the Moon Circle as her first group ritual. Feel free to check it out

@highfantasy I belive those who don't have moon related powers, would be stronger at the 1 &2 phases of the moon, etc, etc, until the full moon where watter manipulation powers and werewolves and suff like that would be at it's peak. 
            
            My opinion

            It's interesting to see and feel the energies of all living things and inanimate objects. Studying them would go a long way towards a masters in Alchemy too. Exciting stuff!

Healer.  Let’s face it someone is bound to get hurt at some point.  Warrior/soldier would be a close second.

@highfantasy actually I feel like in every story there should at least be an apothecary, or some sort of healer to help the good guys or prevent them from achieving there goal.

Hail, High Fanatics!
          
          We've got an exciting announcement, and are please to share that we've created a discord for the High Fantasy community!
          
          There are still some things to set up within the server (like gender role selection), but it's functional, and we'll add more features once more people filter into the server.
          
          We will be seeking people to help out with the team as a community; High Fantasy started as a community profile, and we believe this should be run for the community. 
          
          The reading list form is still the same, so authors may continue to submit there for now, but in the meantime, feel free to join our discord, meet fellow members, and get settled in. 
          
          Please bear in mind, the lead is running this with only two other members, so there will be an adjustment period while we continue to transition fully over to the community. 
          
          Cheers!
