info about the tags and what they mean in the context of this work.
will update this later, so you can better understand what part of a specific series i draw inspiration from, so you can better tone your expectations and wont be going in blind.
also this is smut. if that wasnt obvious already. its smut. and alot of it. but also tactical combat for grunt power level characters. i never enjoyed main character instant win type scenarios. i always enjoyed side characters fighting with no plot armor.
everyone has an equal chance of dying. who ever skill and tactics is better will win. no main character chosen one bullshit, and power levels will be kept to the level of any grunt can kill a mc like character.
the story will contain systems of fatigue, stamina, long term and short term damage. mana cap so no spamming abilities. ability strain and drawbacks and over use side effects. expect a gritty down to earth version of fights.
while this is inspired by shonen. my favorite genres are 2000s battle seinen. aldo i do watch modern and old shonen.
most of my philosophy on fight scenes are based on fighting games. specifically arena fighters. or the old tekken games. where stage hazards and maneuvering around a dynamic fighting environment are key. and the fighters arent constrained to one tight area, giving greater variety of fighting styles
also the fight scene philosophy is any one at any power level can die. an op character with god like one hit kill abilities can still loose to the lowest tier character who fights strategically and carefully.
most characters here are original and based on dinosaurs, most of them are anthro. we will have a human pov later on as our audience guide so we have some frame of reference of familiarity.
the story has alot of worldbuilding and the setting is distinct. the people living in it are very dissimilar to our own.
