People don't 'turn into' a psychopath. Psychopathy is something someone is born with, and as far as I understand it, fundamentally it's an inability to empathize. A psychopath might logically know what someone is feeling, but what someone else is feeling doesn't make them feel anything in...

I still have it, at least

Never have I ever heard something that sounded more suspicious.

Simply put, mental stats do have relations to and interplay with the physical stats, but it's not quite as heavy as the physical stat's interplay with eachother. Also D&D stats are not sufficient to represent human ability. There's a lot that weirdly stuffed together, or just plain missing. And...

Well, and hyperbolic.

There shouldn't be a difference, the characters should define and direct the plot and the plot should challenge and grow the characters. A story is about people undergoing challenge and how they grow and change and adapt. The plot matters because it's happening to the characters, and we watch...

None of those, because I already have some in mind and none of them are up there. Seriously, you don't even have cat on there!

Well I don't think it's quite as you've described for me. I don't really envision my ideas as coming from any place in particular or being made anywhere, usually they come about as I'm dissociating from some monotonous task by distracting myself with stories. That said, sometimes in those...

This doesn't really work to find out how it is for 'most people', only how it is for most scribblehub forum users.

Cereal. For some reason eating cereal (with milk of course) deals with cotton mouth from waking up for me better than drinking water does.

I always appreciate it when the author does that

Okay so the thing is 'you' doesn't exist, the idea of a self is an illusion. There is no difference between something and it's exact copy. And, the you that is now is different from the you you were 5 seconds ago, is different from the you 5 years ago. Small, nearly unnoticeable changes, but...

Rupegia (though I did stop eventually)

Magic weapons which require the user to he strong enough/meet certain conditions to wield. Like level or stat requirements in an mmo.

I wouldn't bother.

I usually just stick it on in the background, and if it stays in the background I ignore it and move onto the next one when it's done, but if it catches my attention and stimulates my brain in a nice way then it goes on the playlist and I check out other stuff by the same group. Sometimes though...

Knowledge does not equal skill. There's a lot he could learn, yeah, but you can't learn everything just by reading it in a book, there's a lot of things that you have to practice and actually try to learn how they actually work in practice. Reading a bunch of books about blacksmithing isn't...

Okay so I'd want to be either an amphiptere, or- what I would most simply describe as... a faceless zombie crystal dragon with an extra set of legs instead of wings. Geometric iridescent crystal bones, six 'ribs' that instead of connecting with eachother, each jut out and end in a spike, a...

Pluck something that sounds good and vibes right out of the ether, mash arbitrary syllables together until something sounds and vibes right, or on occasion I'm taking inspiration from mythology or something for that character so I take the name and apply mutations to get something similar but...

I had a similar thought, but with parasitic mushrooms... especially, those ones that can take over and control their prey. Luckily, so far that's mostly restricted to tiny insects, but the thought of a magic plague of parasitic mushrooms- scary.
