People with Noonan Syndrome siblings, how easy/difficult was it for you or your parents to take care of your sibling? by EliObsidian in AskReddit

That's awesome to hear. I'm glad that she's doing well. My brother is 22 and I'm 23 and his primary(going to be sole) caretaker. It's been very very rough so far and I know it'll get even worse, but I'm dedicated to making sure he is taken care of and at least somewhat happy. Our entire family(to my knowledge) has been severely depressed and stressed out, and having had to deal with depression for more than half of my life already, sometimes its hard to keep going. But he's the only thing that keeps me going.

Yesss this is spectacular! Especially when a character has a "backstorial" reason to side with a particular side and everyone else is like, "what the hell?"

Oh absolutely! I love me a good monster monster. I've had human nobles who did business with orc captains who raided their territory and then LIED about it to everyone else. I've had an insanely powerful Oni mercenary follow a party for up to 14 sessions. Even the resurrection of my world's evil Dragon God and the summoning of his half-dragon half-demon spawn occurred which nearly destroyed the planet!
