    What are some pitfalls for Multiverse Traveler/Planeswalker stories?

    Reading like a shopping list of the writer's fantasies instead an actual story. To add to that: no sense of wonder to associate with the act of planeswalking or doing magic in itself.

    Are generic stories acceptable?

    I feel like "just copy what seems best" is a rather slippery path to go down on but on the whole I can agree. Writers, online most of all, seem rather lacking in imagination and more than that, any actual feeling for their settings or characters. Look at almost any story on this site alone...

    Is it wrong to love your country?

    It is never wrong to love your country and its people. But take note, a country has flaws. Its people have flaws. You can love your country and it ideals without turning a blind eye to its problems. Just because you love your country is no excuse to ignore the people who suffer at its faults. A...

    P5 Persona Suggestions

    Scheherazade wouldn't really be called a rebellious sort of figure though. As I recall she never really does anything "against the system" as such. Don't know about the others.

    Lilith, and if you squint, Eve do come to mind as a form of ur-examples.

    So, a thing. Broken fingers don't really hurt that much. The books lied. For all adventurous tourists though (cuz literally no one would be as dumb as my parents and actually immigrate here) if you end up in an African country and want to try a job stay away from those where such things as...

    General chat thread

    On the one hand, I've completely forgotten the reason I know how to read and write the Elder Futhark. On the other, I still have yet to stop procrastinating my Italian Studies, which in hindsight pisses me off.

    Valor Nope. Only one word to it, had something to do with metaphysics. I do remember it wasn't one found in typical common parlance. Good try though.

    Anyone know the name of that logical fallacy where immaterial concepts are misconstrued as concrete? I can neither find nor remember the word for some reason.

    The Music Thread

    Discworld music you say...? Smuthunter If you're looking for video game themed stuff JT music/skullkruncher13 is a close runner-up if you like Rap and Rock. He can tend towards game mechanics more often than I like but there's still some pretty epic stuff there. His DOOM Rap is often paired...

    Journey Beyond The West: Non-European Fantasy Discussion, Recs, and Ideas

    Oh, yes! I have heard good things of Bridge of Birds. Haven't had the chance to acquire a personal taste, though. Speaking of, a writer in the Touhou fandom going by Achariyth1 has claimed heavy inspiration from that book in his fics. I can say that said fics (the ones I've read at least) are...

    Journey Beyond The West: Non-European Fantasy Discussion, Recs, and Ideas

    I have seen this literally nowhere and am thus sorely disappointed. Let's try and fix this severe oversight in our entertainment, shall we? This be the thread for those who get bored with general same-old same-old of our current mainstream somewhat Europe-oriented fantasy genre and want to talk...
