    Seven deadly sins derived powers.

    Wrath. I considered pride, but I like to keep a realistic view of myself and I feel pride would distort that. On the other hand, there are a lot of deserving targets for my Wrath, that I could never strike myself. It would even be Righteous! Well, except that believing you're in the right when...

    Is originality dead?

    Just because we can't see them doesn't mean they aren't colors. Colorblind people exist, but the colors they are blind to still exist. And again, other animals can see colors beyond what we can, such as my prior example of the mantis shrimp. Humans can see 3 colors, they can see 12, and those...

    Is originality dead?

    Lot's of ideas are already out there, but that doesn't mean originality is dead, it just means that originality comes from how you put the pieces together to make something, rather than pulling something out of the ether. In that way, you can still create new and unique worlds, stories. It's...

    Writing Prompt Perfect-Shot Villain vs Protagonist... With a twist.

    XD For that matter, anyone who has at any point consumed Dihydrogen Monoxide is also subject to a 100% fatality rate.

    Writing Prompt Perfect-Shot Villain vs Protagonist... With a twist.

    "How are you still standing!?" Altaire screamed at the Hero, his black robes billowing evily in the wind. Claude gave a wry grin. "It was tough, I'll admit, thinking of a counter to your Sure-Hit power... but just because something hits you, doesn't mean it does any damage. So I had this made!"...

    Recommendations Works with double EXP.

    Eh maybe. I enjoyed it when I read it, but my standards were pretty low at the time. Also, I misremembered, the exp stuff wasn't a result of jobless, but of some blessings from a couple goddesses.

    Recommendations Works with double EXP.

    I've seen a light novel where the mc had that. Don't remember what it was called, but basically the mc is transported to the new world, and the starting job is Jobless, which most people drop as soon as they hit the requirements to get a new job (which I think is level 5?), and it doesn't give...

    Seven deadly sins

    I could make an argument for all of them, but Wrath and Sloth are my big ones, followed by Pride and maybe Lust

    Writing How do you guys transition from describing a fight, to showing a conversation between different characters?

    You could just describe what happened while they were talking afterwards; or add a sentence or two occasionally, in-between lines of dialogue describing what's happening in the fight (if the characters are actively watching), or mention the clashing of metal, grunts of exertion, scuffs in the...

    Finding the Right Balance of litRPG Elements

    An important thing to consider when discussing Systems is where did it come from? What are it's limits? Is it a fundamental law of the universe, or was it created by someone? For what purpose? This can drastically change things, because if it's fundamental, then it might not be exploitable and...

    What practical superpower do you wish you had?

    *Visualizes the corpse of your enemy* Some definite applications for this... Could probably use it to fly an airplane too, among other things. Of course, you could just choose something like 'Universal God-like Skill', make it a lot more stream-lined. True immortality would be hell though...

    What practical superpower do you wish you had?

    That's a good one, but for me personally I'd make sure to word it so I *can* still do those things, and that whether I do or don't, I don't have to poo or pee. And I'd add breathing to the list. Nothing special, but a simple and convenient quality-of-life improvement. And you could save some...
