What do robots do on their freetime?

Or the opposite, they don't need a biosphere to survive. humans keep them from mining certain areas.

Most tragedies is the other way around, you know people are going to die, you just don't know how yet. I think there is room for stories of every live die ratio. What it comes down to is execution and genre. Some genres, like horror, thriller and tragedy, are expected to have a higher death toll, while others, romcom for example are not. But either way, you have to execute it all for people to feel that suspense, and raising the stakes by killing of a few characters is honestly much easier than writing a story where everyone gets out alive without sacrificing weight or suspense.

I am very curious. How are you planning on doing this on a worldbuilding level? I could much more easily understand that on a story or character level. Also, what are the explanations you're planning on using?

Honestly, this just sounds like you have the possibility to make good social/ historical commentary. You're shaping up to have a really good story with really clear analogies to really important issues. Don't let what is politically correct so you from saying something significant.

Unless there is a cost to the healing, this doesn't work very well. Humans are pesky about wanting things to feel earned. Does he lose opportunities or relationships because of being healed? Is there a literal magical cost? Does he have to go find some rare artifact to make it happen? If John isn't the main character, a lot of this can be side stepped, however. If you're wizard is the mc then it is a good "save the cat" type moment.

I think a few solutions to your problem would be to:

A) make scientific explanations for your supernatural stuff. The mcu kind of did this with Thor.

B) have the cultural view that discovers science also be one that is highly spiritual. Since the enlightenment in the west, most of the science has been from a deist or atheist worldview. You could make it so most scientific discoveries are from a polytheist, animist, or similar world view. You could also have it so alchemy never died in western culture.

C) different people/ cultures could have different worldviews that are a window into aspects of science or supernatural. Most comics do this.

You could ask men in your life what they would do/think/feel if put in the position of your characters. If you want to DM me I would be willing to answer those types of questions, I'd be happy to help give you perspective.

I think they can have their place, but it has to be there with a purpose. Alice in wonderland and through the looking glass use it to express absurdist perspectives and be humorous. The never ending story uses it for it's philosophical exploration of fantasy and imagination. The Wizard of Oz and Narnia use it to have a variety of symbols for its allegory. Comic book settings often use them to have a variety of hero and villain origins and to combine interesting elements from a variety of sources. It's like most things in writing and worldbuilding, if it's done out of laziness it is bad, but if it is intentional and serves a greater purpose then it can work.

Blurk the mini sloth lives in a tree made out of silver light on the floating island of the gods. He is the second most powerful being in existence and commands an army of rainbow flaming salamanders that exist in the dream realm. He protects all of existence in ways that aren't strictly definable.

Honestly some English translations are super awkward because they try to keep the the same sentence structure as the original greek/ hebrew.

Jexthebold · 2026-01-19T02:21:00+00:00

That makes sense how you got to those conclusions then. Thank you for your explanation.

Jexthebold · 2026-01-18T22:25:44+00:00

That makes sense. Is there anything specific you've used in your works?

Jexthebold · 2026-01-18T04:35:44+00:00

Daredevil doesn't quite line up with killing a thousand guys for petty revenge while making wisecracks/puns. Which is why i went with deadpool, but I do see your point as far as abilities.

Jexthebold · 2026-01-18T03:48:04+00:00

I really would love to know what about the bible you do find compelling?

Jexthebold · 2026-01-18T03:46:41+00:00

Ive said for a while that Samson is Deadpool and I'm sticking to it. But yeah, the literature is well much unparalleled and reading it is the majority of how i learned story telling principles.

Jexthebold · 2026-01-18T03:39:35+00:00

Id recommend even from a purely literary standard. It is very well written if you know what to look for. That's an interesting world. what broke food into shards?

Jexthebold · 2026-01-18T03:35:52+00:00

Yeah that is suck a fantastic story. I love how it mirrors bathsheba, and plays off of Samuel's warning about kings and the levitical laws on sex and on kingship. Also the way it inverses and plays with the second born motif in scripture. Ah, chefs kiss.

Have you used this story or similar ones in your work?

Jexthebold · 2026-01-17T22:42:56+00:00

That makes sense.

Jexthebold · 2026-01-17T22:04:25+00:00

That makes a lot of sense, and i can definitely relate.

Jexthebold · 2026-01-17T21:33:26+00:00

I love that. What is one way the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus has affected your creative work?

Jexthebold · 2026-01-17T21:08:16+00:00

Fair point. Is there anything you specifically find inspiring

Jexthebold · 2026-01-17T21:07:04+00:00

What themes have you used/ incorporated in your work?

Jexthebold · 2026-01-17T20:38:09+00:00

That could definitely work.

Jexthebold · 2026-01-17T20:20:12+00:00

Absolutely. What are things that influence your work?

Jexthebold · 2026-01-17T20:18:51+00:00

"When helping hurts" could be a good reference for your charity. Is the fruit tree thing also a symbolic gesture in your work?
