More a financial weapon than a bludgeoning one.

For pre-(widespread)firearm warfare? A warhammer, duh. Two-handed if you're wearing full plate, one-handed if not (in the other hand, use a shield). If you're not wearing armor, and for some reason are forbidden carrying a shield with your warhammer, just take the shield. Still can bludgeon, and...

Oh life in the false reality is great, perfect even. Unnervingly so. It is, after all, there to distract you from how the world is crumbling outside and humanity has like, half a century, tops, before the life-support fails irreparably and we all die.

Me neither, but even I know that's wrong.

By becoming a Worm, you lose your Human Will subscription and become Susceptible to Death.

No head empty heart sad And me like grammar and punctuation. Extra sad.

Well, the units we use to measure time wouldn't change, those are objective, they would just *feel* longer. And hell, our perception of time isn't consistent at all to begin with. Ya know the phrase 'time flies when you're having fun'? To the subjective viewer, it really does feel like the time...

Well, that depends on if sung magic has been completely forgotten, or if people know what it is but it's seen more like a historical curiosity, practiced by historians and geeks and whatnot, kinda like how people see HEMA these days. Though, with thousands of years having past, it wouldn't be...

It could be that magic circles always existed, and were known about, but to use them it used to be that you had to draw them in the air, which required standing in one place and having a steady hand, whereas the singing option was more mobile and left your hands free, and both options weren't...

Plague wouldn't work, it's too easy for people to isolate themselves, plus there's the possibility of a vaccine, and you have to balance deadliness with infectivity, and the plague will mutate and probably become less deadly over time, so that it's carriers survive longer bearing and passing...

Nuclear is actually good for long-term death, not because of the fall-out, but because the massive explosions kick up dirt and dust and ash into the atmosphere, similar to a volcano. Throw a lot of them, or a few big enough, and you'll choke out the sun globally, killing all the plant life, and...

On scribblehub there's Singer Sailor Merchant Mage, which I've, paused indefinitely, but it seemed decent, and also Reincarnation of Alysara, though the author seems to be re-writing that one and it's gonna take a long while. There's still a pretty good chunk of story there.

I mean, most (if not all?) mammals produce milk, we just associate milk with cows because we collect and drink their milk like fuckin weirdos. Don't minotaurs have bull heads? That's like the defining feature of a minotaur, and what separates them from normal beastkin. A minotaur without a bull...

I mean, 'beastmen' is a very broad category, ranging from 'human with cat ears' to 'anthropomorphic donkey with thumbs'. And everything in between.

Demons, obviously? I will accept fallen angel. But come on, demons. No self-respecting queer girl (that isn't ace) doesn't have the hots for demons! It's pride month, pridemonth, the answer has to be demons!

*gets kidnapped/forcefully-adopted-by the hero party* Or, *accidentally starts a union of dungeon monsters, overthrows the Demon Lord, and becomes the Demon Lord*

What are you even trying to say? Yeah you don't need one for every story, duh, but it can still add to certain stories when used one. And of course there are stories that explicitly revolve around some means of acquiring power. 'Progression' has become a genre. There's also, basically...

-and a therapist. Also, could just wear 'clothes' made of magically controlled blood.

Being able to identify the health of an individual just by the smell/taste of their blood. Like, how healthily they're eating, are they hydrated, do they have cancer, organ failure, an infection, what emotions they had when the blood was spilled, how wounded are they, etc. Being able to see the...

I once read a series where reciting poetry worked magic based on the contents of the poem. 'A Wizard In Rhyme'. It's kinda old and has a religious bent to it I really don't like now, but the magic was neat, and it might be one of the reasons I didn't hate poetry in school, unlike basically...
