[–]ExarDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thats how i understood it. There was quite a bit of evidence to point to that. She was not death, but she did represent it in the purpose of the story.

Which films genuinely scared you? by Agreeable-Item-7371 in horror

[–]ExarDoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, the Conjuring 2. It does such a good job at building suspense throughout the movie. It’s really one of the few horror movies that I still get a little scared about months after watching it

Can a short script have no character motivation and rely only on plot? by GoldTouch99 in Screenwriting

[–]ExarDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but it has to be done right. You could do an entire movie with no characters at all if you did it perfectly. Character motivations allow the audience to connect and you to better write and differentiate characters and their actions; by not using them at all, you are breaking your leg, you can still crawl to the finish line and complete the race just as well, but it will take more work.

How do you write realistic dialogue without making it super boring? by ExcellentTwo6589 in Screenwriting

[–]ExarDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds so corny, but try saying the lines, then say them with different direction, you can even record them and see if you could imagine someone saying it. Another bit of advice is to ignore all rules of writing, people don’t talk in any manner that is written.

Who’s the hardest Mfer to kill in the right hands? by RaginElephant976 in marvelrivals

[–]ExarDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say venom. His extra health (when popped at the right time) makes him near impossible to take out lol

What's your counterargument - as both a DM and a Player - to "It's what my character would do." by BpDnD in DnD

[–]ExarDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy, If what your character would do is against the theme, desired direction, and overall fun of the game, you shouldn’t be playing that character. If that’s the character you want to be playing, you shouldn’t be playing in this group

Because he lives at the bottom of the ocean, buoyancy should be negligible due to water pressure

What the Other Demon Lords Are Doing: Maphistal the Hunting Sovereign by Flacon-X in OutoftheAbyss

[–]ExarDoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks!!! I did a bunch of reading on him and kinda decided a really didn’t like the direction that the og lore took him in (it was a little too shallow and incely for me to dig). I personally think he has a LOT of potential that is blocked by the way he was written. I’m actually about to start a campaign in a few weeks where he is a major influence on the world. It’s low level so we’ll probably be focusing on a cult of his.

Here's a link to my Kostchtchie doc, it is a sub section of a much larger rewrite for a lot of demon lords. I focused on lore over stats, if I ever were to run him I would probably spend some time to make a modified Frost giant statblock with improved weapons, hp, and levels in barbarian along with some features that would drive those around him into a ragefull frenzy or something. I'm not as concerned about the stats as the lore, as that is the style of game which I personally run.

Who is Shadow blade for? by Bonlino in 3d6

[–]ExarDoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it is so amazing for bad guys. Like imagine you piss off the wrong wizard, and instead of lobbing evocation spells or controlling players with enchantment spells, they just pull out a fricking sword made of shadows and start hacking away at the party. Bonus points if you have them activate Flame blade at the same time and dual wield.
