First thought, no to mundane stuff, yes to magical stuff.

Ooooo..... That sounds like it has the potential to be rather twisted. I love it.

I second what the others said. Not sure I agree with not feeling guilt being a mark of villaindom, but certainly I agree with the rest.

Hmmm.... I think that willing suspension of disbelief will make it so that readers don't raise an eye if you call her 9 anyways. Alternatively just saying her mother died when she was young ought to be enough.

Uh..... Sounds neat, but is there something specific you want input on?

Huh so is it sort of a fighter, mage, thief set up with the elves for the mages and beast masters for the thieves? Maybe a race to fill the cleric / priest role?

Question: How are there rare races? Are they just not popular with players, do players not get to choose their race or that if you get a lucky roll you get a rare race as an additional option that other players wouldn't have? Side note: I'm a big fan of Log Horizon personally. I see it as a...

To counter the others, you could most certainly have a Mage race Witch Species - TV Tropes For a story based off of an MMO I do think that more than four races would be better. Probably not more than 12 for PC races and even that might be pushing it, but with three or four races I would...

Well, I'm sure that the readers would accept it, but personally stuff like that push my willing suspension of disbelief just a bit too much. Holding a monopoly on information isn't easy. Once someone knows that something can be done they can start trying to work out how to do it themselves, and...

Easy, I don't start. *ba dum tss* It's been a theory of mine for awhile now that there's various different ways to go about writing. What you described is what I would call world first writing. Tolkien is the big name example of this. He crafted the world first and then had a story to let him...

I feel that Harry Potter ultimately deconstructs the idea of the Chosen One. Right from the get go he was the Boy Who Lived, but as the books go along he eventually winds up getting all sorts of sh*t dumped on him. It gets to the point that we winds up getting portrayed as an attention seeking...

They can buy ink or other useful stuff made with thumbs for money they can earn via letting soldiers ride upon their backs or other jobs like hunting dangerous predators that might prey upon their livestock.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh........... Personally I'd say avoid any science talk with this at all? Both saying that personality is controlled by DNA and physical characteristics determined by only one parent (which honestly should result in the kids just being physical clones of the...

Is there a reason to use blood over ink other than "Rawr, rawr, I'm a predator!"? Well, I think a lack of thumbs might have something to do with it. Hard to be top of the food chain when the squishy humans can make tools that can kill you before you get close. Similarly for the mounts bit...

Are they just very intelligent animals or do they actually have human level intelligence? Can they write by dipping a claw in ink or just scratching out words in the dirt? If they can then the reason they let humans ride them could amount to simply hands. Humans don't need to find a cave, they...
