[World builders ARE working but schedule is a bit messy right now. Will be updated with details soon]
Put up ideas you'd like to see the World Builder's work on. Below will be a sort of "Assignment List" to show what we're working on and for how long. Please don't repeat ideas and no spamming.
Thanks!
Ongoing Discussion/Event planning:
Canon comic/writing
Layout of manor/grounds

Yeah, SkeleLock's idea sounds mega awesome! I'd love to be apart of that! It may be a bit much but I think it'd def get some people into the actual expansion of the world. A canon comic of the Firsts or even of Boss Tapi would be even more awesome! It wouldn't even need to explain anything of Boss Tapi at all, I just wanna see the Boss be all mysterious and mystical, tbqh! I'd love to get to know how the Boss met some of the other co-founders. Or even just a peak on exactly when the Boss found out about their own flames and learned how to exchange souls. I just checked out the comic thread and it was nice with what it had (I mean, it was dragonfang's artwork and, just- dude) but I had been hopin' for more there. It would also help to know how everything works/looks so that others and I could expand upon what's laid out as well. It's pro'lly just me but I can't write fanfics or create comics based with so little. (I have a good enough imagination but not that good... QW Q")  Beyond that, I would really like further explanation on what happens to our souls when the Boss takes ownership over them. (0W O ) I'd seen that thread back when I'd first joined but it's not very detailed. (Or maybe it is and I'm just too used to reading very good fanfictions??) Also, I'm probably going to use the CC in some fanfics later on /soon/at some point.  |

There hasn't been a lot of open info on how religion fits in the whole being of the cult, and I know the assigned world builder (Boom) posted about the cult goddess and other gods on Tumblr but what do we really know about it? I mean, does every single cult member revere Illusaperde and has an assigned virtue or is the cult pantheon worshipped as a whole?
(Also, I'm going to agree with Skelelock here. The general cult mythos has been about a set group of individuals and this is fantastic, but then again, we're also a group and there are so many cultsonas, everyone actually, that could very well play a more internal part in the overall plot. The puppeteers takeover was really really great for what I experienced of it, everyone who got to participate got to be part of the canon in some way.)

@skelelock certainly has a great idea! I'm in favor for it; granted I haven't yet experienced much here. I still feel this will allow us to grow as a whole and really be more active and incorporate others. Plus, being still a snackrifice, I'm sure with missions like these could help me grasp a much better understanding of the cult!  |

I'd personally love to know how big the world is and what the contents are. Are we just on earth, or has there been changes taken place? lists of unique plants and animals would be nice too.

Another thing I've been meaning to inquire about! The universe that our Cult takes part in, is it our Earth+ with under the radar magical happenings? Or is it in another Earth where Magic known but not practiced (like Steven Universe with aliens), Magic is well known and seen as common (like Fairy Tail), or where Magic is only known in certain places with magical congregations here and there (Harry Potter)? On a sub-note, is our places of "shop" and HQs interdimensional (like xxxHolic)? I rather like this idea myself because it leaves us to interact with whomever we like... >> And no matter what Earth/Dimension we reside in, are there more places than what, er, the Mundane can see? Like, pockets of magical places, residences? This is based off a little headcanon I got from reading HP and xHolic, that some magical areas are either restricted for magicals by Magicals and those with the Sight, like Hogwarts, MoM, etc., or naturally restricted for Magicals+. This would also make so much sense when you take in that there could be Clans/Flight dragons scattered on the Earth and there'd be little to no sightings... |

I was thinking about the Problem of Journal Pages. Since we're officially disconnected from the Gravity falls verse, who writes those? And how do they look as a compiled thing?(Since I do not suppose they look exactly the same as the red ones from the original series) Is it maybe Ford while he is in that Portal dimension (which would connect us in some way to Gravity Falls Canon after all), or is it maybe someone else who took an interest in the cult? Is it maybe a small Group of Hobby Occultists or something the like? Or maybe a whole society that is looking into the strange happenings in the town we're located in, and therefore tries to research the different creatures? If it would be multiple people that work on those Journals/this Journal, then that would explain why the style of almost every page is different. (There was also a suggestion in the snack chat by Jnixz after I introduced my Idea that this could become one of the missions in a sense of hunting them down. Whoever they might be.) |

With the split from GF canon the journal pages were moved to the crossover section and are considered that now. I don't believe we had any plans to incorporate them into cult canon after that decision was made. |

Had a thought, maybe some working on how "Cult Businesses" can be implemented and how they could possibly be used? I know Grey has a cafe and others have bars and restaurants and stuff, so maybe some clarification on how those businesses benefit the cult? (if they benefit the cult at all)

Just thought of it, but maybe a way to help with the ranking idea could be to assigned ranks and rank ups by how many missions a member does? That way people are encouraged to participate in missions to further the plot and there's a stable way to assign ranks without people spamming for power. Idk how that could be incorporated because people have ranks right now, but if ranks worked that way, things would progress more, and people could develop their sona's skills and personalities with the experience from the missions. I also understand if this isn't a viable option, just wanted to add another thought to my previous post. Maybe it could be added in with the custom title function? That way you can have post ranks and strength ranks
Also maybe we could get some kind of map of the cult? Kind of like the main territory around the mansion

(if they benefit the cult at all) Yeah, that would be interesting! The candle shop makes sense because we're The Candle Cult, but I'd love to see exploration of how the other businesses work, especially if they're run by a sona who doesn't look very human. I always assumed those businesses were for cultists only because they all seemed to be located in weird places like the middle of the woods or something. Adding to Scorpius' posts, I would like to know if there is any form of cult revenue, or if the cult just functions on a "you need it, you take it" basis. That's what I originally thought it worked with, but if that's not the case, some exploration into that aspect of the cult life would be cool too! Oh my Gods, yes! What if The Candle Shop was big enough and more than magik'd enough that there was it's very own market street behind it? Like, associates and allies of the 'Cult would do deals and transactions there and then leave through the portal stations inside the back of the shop? Then various Markets would be set up near/around other places of venue and business but, like, since they're magik'd, would be hidden by barriers from non-Magic+/Sight people. Also, I would really like to ask if our shop simultaneously exists in multiple places on Earth+? (And, also other dimentions and their corresponding places from the idea in my one of my previous posts?) That'd actually be super funny... Imagine the frustration of some people trying to exit into one place only to find themselves in another!XD |

Hello everyone! These are all incredible suggestions, and we've made careful note of each of them. Our goal is to address all of them and (at long last) finalize some of the details. Our first order of business as of right now, however, is to come up with a new cipher that isn't based on Gravity Falls or any other fandom. Also, cult location. We are most certainly in North American wooded area (preferably in a region where tunneling and the like can hold up for ages). Some suggested part of Canada, some suggested mountain ranges on either the east or west coast. Ultimately, where in North America are we kids?! Please continue to assign us homework. To keep from clogging up this chat with anything other than suggestions, follow these instructions thecandlecult.freeforums.net/thread/315/suggestion-thread and start a discussion thread. Like some of you are talking about the pantheon. I'd like to see you spill those ideas. |

Nah, you're probably not being silly. Hold on a sec. I'll see if I can get a discussion thread started for you guys. |

Beyond that, I would really like further explanation on what happens to our souls when the Boss takes ownership over them.
