That depends entirely on your definition of epic. 1) In D&D terms, when my party wizard and I worked together to drop a multi-ton ectopic construct on a Spellweaver's head from ~30ft up. 2) It did 1,103 points of damage (300d6) which we did roll at the table. To my knowledge, this is still the...

Well, there have been so many great picks here, but for some reason not a single person has mentioned the most obvious. He has had many names in many different iterations of fiction, so he certainly counts. • Satan. Lucifer. The Devil. However you wish to call him, they are all depictions of...

First off, welcome to the SH (ScribbleHub) community. Second, despite being new here myself, I don't think there would be any issues posting a translation of your own work, but that would be something to check with the moderation team / staff about. Asking on the discord is probably your best...

Yes, they would count. Comics too.

With the typical Isekai premise in mind, here's the prompt. You, yourself, were going about your daily life when everyone's favorite Truck-kun pays you an unexpected visit, and the last book, or story, you were reading is the world you ended up in. What happens next, well that's in your hands...

Personally, as an author, I do love comments and feedback on my work. I'm not sure how well my own stuff will appeal to you, but you're welcome to check it out. Aethara is still in it's early stages and only the proof of concept and prelude are currently available (Chapter 1 is slated for...

Just started seeing the announcements today that Guild Wars (one of the MMORPG's of my childhood) is getting a massive update patch in the form of remastered graphics, Steamdeck, and Controller compatibility, and is still going to be only $20 for the core games (Prophecies, Factions, and...

This has been quite helpful, thank you. We're in agreement on several points as well. What I can promise you, as far as my own stuff goes, is that I'm not skimping on the lore, or giving the system solely to the protagonist or leading cast members. 1) The System exists as a means of filtering...

Personally, as a protagonist I'm not a huge fan; but it can certainly be done well. It all comes down to the type of story, and its implementation. I tend to prefer it when a Mother is portrayed well as a Mother in the story, traditionally in a mentoring, nurturing, and caring, supportive role...

Personally, I think it comes down to balance of everything so far, and how well they mesh with your narrative as a whole. Some fights work great for symbolism. Others work great for action sequences. Some work wonders because they're short. Others, because they aren't. Ultimately, it's about...

For most of mine, I went with Option B personally, and detailed the heart of the mechanics in my general notes for the story. Short Version Characters can learn skills from leveling up in their classes, and can equip up to ten of the skills they know. (Separate from Spells or Techniques).

I was actually curious about this too, for when those scenes do (inevitably) come up in my own works. I have several such scenes planned for Aethara, but they aren't the focus by any means, so I was wondering how to update the genre when it does reach that point. From what the answers here seem...

That sums things up pretty well, Eldoria. It also gives a perfect reason to drop one of my favorite Doctor quotes from Doctor Who. "Good men don't need rules. Today is not the day to find out why I have so many." My approach though, tends to focus inward for conflict, or by attaching...

Where to begin... Well typically, I just don't give plot armor to anyone, in any of my stories. Anyone can be injured, or killed, or worse, at any given time. Ultimately, though, the key lies in maintaining narrative tension for the story, in much the same way one needs to manage an over-powered...

?️ Weekly Progress Update #2 ✒️ Aethara * Prelude - Released And Available * Chapter 1 - Currently at ~2000 words (+1,150 since last update) * Chapter 1 Draft Notes - Chapter Notes Drafted Up to End Scene Sprint Goals * ~+600 Words to Chapter 1 Rough Draft

I genuinely try not to think about it too much, except for eagerly waiting for the moment when the heroes and/or heroines face (and defeat) them.

It ultimately depends on the story, but typically I prefer when the protagonists and antagonists are simply on opposing sides, or have opposing viewpoints; but none are truly good, or evil. They're all just human. Or, as a fun twist to explore, an antagonist who is also a hero in their own...

That depends heavily on what classifies as "Lost Lore" in a shared universe; because what happens in one story in the universe isn't necessarily relevant to the others; and by which perspective the lore is considered "lost". But if I were to try and narrow things down, I'd probably have to go...

If I had to pick only one thing, the setting. It's the culmination of every story, campaign, and adventure my friends and I have been a part of over the years. The characters would be a close second, as I pour a little bit of myself into each of them. My hopes. My wishes. My dreams. All to...
