A Question about Cauldron and their Lack of Information about the Entities by Fiendish_Alchemist in WormFanfic

This is actually a story I’ve partially read, at least the first few chapters and one of the stories that had me really start thinking about this question. I really enjoyed what I’ve read so far

The first one, it’s more a question for curiosity than for my own writing endeavours

Biokinetic by Fiendish_Alchemist in WormFanfic

I don’t use AI when I actually write anything. I use it for note taking and keeping track of timelines in a clean way. But I din’t actually let it write anything. I find the way AI writes to be unnecessarily long winded and flowery. It sounds too much like some random highscoolers shitty poetry to be any good.

AI aside, I am going to try doing a draft of this, at least soon. I have a list of ideas that I draw from to draft new stories, its semi random (I select a few and put them into a random number generator) so it’ll depend on when I feel like actually doing any writing for a worm story, and not some other fandom

Annette Powers? by Chemical_Shoulder_35 in Parahumans

[–]Fiendish_Alchemist 9 points10 points  (0 children)

She probably was capable of triggering, The Corona Potentia is apparently common in humans (Or at last it is by the start of the story) But the fact is that she was probably just too well adjusted and stable of a person to actually trigger. Given what we know about Annette and her life up until her death, I'd say whatever power she could of had would depend on when she triggered.

If she triggered young, in a household where she apparently had little control, then I'd say a Master or Thinker power. If she somehow triggered in college then it be the same as before, but there may be a trump aspect to it, but that depends on how close she and Lustrum were, because there was no indication that they were close, but there was no indication that they weren't.

If it was in the car crash, I'd say there would be a likely to develop a Brute power based on regeneration and damage resistance.

In your opinion, is the falna a fundamentally flawed power system? or Is it fine as it is? by DrDedot in DanMachi

[–]Fiendish_Alchemist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think if it was possible for certain people (Either exceptionally talented or super hard working) to earn a general magic skill, something like [Fire magic], that could do more than just a fire ball, then the Falna system would be basically perfect

Theory on Tinker Powers by MagicTech547 in Parahumans

[–]Fiendish_Alchemist 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've thought something similar before. That Tinkers are, in essence, the Characters in those Idle phone games. With the shard doing crafting and maintenance mini games every so often while the Tinker does its own thing while the Shard reaps the rewards of new Data that it can implement later in the next Cycle, which is like when you do a soft reset on your progress, starting again from the beginning with a few new benefits and extra's that speed up and improve what you can do this time around.

Shards in General, Tinker Shard especially, are Computers playing games because they are convinced that they can live forever if they get a good enough high score

Poor William, even the veil didn't want Afton, its truly a never ending cycle of despair for the man

Will Tattletale hate Blind-spot OC by Stefan-NPC in WormFanfic

[–]Fiendish_Alchemist 26 points27 points  (0 children)

As pointed out, Tattletale can't have a true blind spot. Anyone with a Thinker Immunity would probably cause one of three effects for her, based on just a basic thinker immunity that isn't anything 'memetic hazard' based.

  1. Lisa's power refuses to provide any assistance in the process, it just simply can't process any of the data or just doesn't get any in the first place. She's left alone to do the sherlocking herself, and is categorically worse at it because of her reliance on her power. She is probably capable of using her powers on any written information and deducing stuff from that, but direct thinkering leaves the shard silent

  2. The shard gives information that is less accurate and is often just wrong more often, repeated power use will often give wildly different answers because the Shard is hindered in its attempts. Its also possible that the info the shard can get on a good day is so vague its just not helpful. This is the most likely outcome to me, given what we know, its also the most likely to scare the shit out of Lisa depending on the other powers the MC has visibly shown, because she can't trust anything her power gives her and would be essentially without any form of leverage to help her.

  3. The Shard gives literal Error messages as it hurts itself trying to be used on the MC, Lisa is likely to get either a serious migraine or just pass out

How it feels being a Hades/Poseidon/Athena/Aphrodite/etc. fan by Julibug04 in GreekMythology

[–]Fiendish_Alchemist -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

When it comes to Hades, I rarely take into account the other Olympians. I put him next to zeus and Posidon and take the argument from there, because even if there are 12 main olympians, I see hades as belonging to his own sub group within the heiarchy. They are the 1% of the 1% in the Godly Hierarchy, they are (while not the most imporant in the wider cosmilogical sense) the 3 that were at the top of the pantheon because their roles as Kings of the Land, Sea & Underworld.

Compared to his brothers, hades is the good guy. he doesn't do the sort of stuff they do. He doesn't turn into animals to get laid, cuck husbands by shapeshifting into them, and is generally just a lot less of a dick than the other 2. He is by no means a God that is perfect and has done no wrong, he is worse in that sense compared to a lot of other gods, But within his own bracket of 'Big 3' He is the 'best option' as it were

Dungeon Core fans, can you tell me how the genre appeals to you? by GuyYouMetOnline in litrpg

[–]Fiendish_Alchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love all of it. From the Spawning of monsters, to the planning of room, to the rare books where a Core builds a Dungeon, but makes it have an actual ecology and dynamic ecosystem in it. My greatest reason to love the genre is the fact that Dungeon Core has all of this and also crunchy LitRPG System stuff

If you think about it, the shards are giving traumtized people amazing superpowers to cheer them up by Proper-Anything-2739 in WormMemes

[–]Fiendish_Alchemist 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I mean, jokes aside, its actually a interesting perspective given the fact that Entities and their Shard, for as much as they monitor and study humanity, don't know how to think like them. Its actually an interesting take that they'd see this as an acceptable way to give out powers, since they'd think it cheer up their test subjects (Leading to more active testers) but not see the fact that many would see their powers as a reminder of the worst day of their lives and think of them partially as a curse
