If that's really in game dialogue... that's freaking BRILLIANT.

Or even to transmigrate?

But if it's Maura Lee Karupt you've wandered onto Danny the Street...

No that sounds EXACTLY like a writer. Exactly. That too.

Heh - I had a novel (well, novella) that kept getting so dark I had to step away from it for a few days. Sadly, the computer it was on crashed before I got back to it the last time I stepped away and I haven't worked up the nerve to try and rewrite it yet.

That's from a weird mashup of Buddhist and Daoist magic, the Diamond Sutra IIRC. Make the skin hard like a diamond. The few I've seen start with a street brawler who needs to learn discipline and begin with breathing. Don't recall the titles; all that stuck with me was that one common trait...

Most surprising? Not sure. If I ever share my attempt at a "steamy romance" story (essentially NC-17, not X but maybe a LITTLE past R rated) t then either "that I had the nerve to try to write and then share it, despite it sucking" or "that I could actually write that kind of stuff." But...

I always thought the lungs were the first thing trained, via breathing exercises; it was the first thing Chiun taught Remo, and was also a focus in two other martial arts stories I read back in the 90s at lest. Then, once breathing is right, train the stomach and related systems, following or...

Go back to the classics, where magic was unreliable, dangerous, something to be fought AGAINST and not WITH. R. E. Howard, H. P. Lovecraft, C. S. Lewis, or even J. R. R. Tolkien. Or where magic is used by the "support characters" and not the (usually children) heroes - like the works of Edith...

DC's Emotional Spectrum is: Red = Rage/Anger Orange = Greed Yellow = Fear Green = Willpower Blue = Hope/Healing Indigo = ... blanking on this one Violet = Love/Lust White = Healing Black = Death/Undeath My Champions character had White = Base form, flying brick Red/Orange = either speed or...

Looks more like a storyboard (more specifically the storyboards I've seen for comic books) than a traditional outline. Is "X" the character's name (like L and M in DeathNote), or is it just "This character is unimportant so I'm using a placeholder instead of a name"?

There is a lot of anime style art if you dig down a few pages. The irony of anime art is that it originated from an attempt to copy the art of Walt Disney's films, but evolved into something distinct.

Not sure how to write this in a story. Had a character I created for a Champions game that never started called Spectrum who could split into seven duplicates (original was white, each copy was one of the seven colors of the rainbow, with slightly weaker physical stats but each had a unique...

I would suggest either sticking with just black, white, and red (the Sin City look, I guess), or adding the glowing blue somewhere else. And I think the reason the head does not QUITE mesh with the body is due to the lack of cross-hatching (not sure if it's supposed to be hair or just uneven...

Some characters should be irredeemable. Some should be like Darth Vader - redeemed at the last possible second by an act of sacrifice. You should NOT follow the lead of Once Upon A Time and have 75% of the villains not only redeemable but redeemable within the season where they first appear (at...

Pictures need to either be posted to the artists forum here (a cheat that does not always work) or posted to an image hosting site and linked, either in the text, or more often, in an Author's Note. (there are probably more detailed instructions in the FAQ)

So she writes vampire porn that sells millions of copies and claims it's Fantasy? If so, glad I don't know who she is (and a little less unhappy that all the bookstores in the area are gone).

Organically - it evolves from a kernel. With Strange Awakening and the Jack Diamond stories, magic comes in three forms (possibly four though...) - Mundane Magic - the magic that allows the basic laws of physics and biology to operate. Faerie Magic - which is illusion and nature magic...

I have no idea who Sarah J. Maas is so there is THAT...

More likely it was a bandwagon thing that everyone jumped on after a few really took off, and now it's down to a "normal" level (I have two - one I haven't released anywhere, and one that is the most popular story I have on this site, myself, and know of at least two others that are being worked...
