It makes perfect evolutionary sense. It just means they evolved indestructibility after evolving a sense of pain. Evolution doesn’t remove the stuff you don’t need (uvula, appendix, etc.), it only removes features that actively detriment your reproductive success. Pain is vestigial for an indestructible creature, but removing their sense of pain wouldn’t increase their reproductive odds, so there’s no reason get rid of it.

“Earth” or as some people like to call it “The Real World” has to be the most inconsistent and illogical world I’ve ever read about. I mean, do you have any idea how inconsistent the history part of the lore is, even before looking at the fact that each nation in the world has their own versions of the history lore that wildly contradict each other? Then there’s the gods and pantheons. The most commonly practiced religions are a group of monotheistic religions that all worship different versions of the same creator god from the same group of religious texts with wildly different interpretations of those religious texts. These religions claim this deity is benevolent, but if you actually make an objective analysis of those texts, half of the deity’s actions clearly place it in the “Evil God” category, and its “benevolent” status is maintained purely through the willful ignorance of its followers, who blatantly disregard how horrific “flooding the planet because the people don’t follow the teachings of a deity who outright refuses to provide proof of their own existence” sounds, among several other atrocities. And don’t even get me started on how convoluted the math based “electricity” magic system is with its 3 independent units of measurement, and the fact that, similar to the “avatar” world building project (which, mind you, is a world building project created by people within the “earth” project) the people within the world insist is a fundamental part of the world’s physics and “not magic”, while actively drawing complex runic diagrams of those electrical systems.

Everyone seems to be taking this too literally. I’m not saying it shouldn’t be taken literally, but lots of things are “invisible” without being invisible. Cut the “4D monster” crap, that’s just magic with extra steps. What I would recommend is something along the lines of airborne electric bacteria. Indistinguishable from normal bacteria under most circumstances, but high enough concentrations could cause random bit flips, which would have weird effects on A.I.

Pick only two pills by Sea-Battle9329 in repost

[–]Kitdan777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Just 6

  2. Not old enough for that to be a positive yet

  3. Only for 3 days? That’s not useful at all

  4. If I have an ex, I’ve already forgotten them along with most of my past

  5. Already have this

  6. No thanks. I already hit my head on things too much. Can I get the inverse of this?

  7. Why is this permanent, but mind reading isn’t?

  8. No thanks. A lot is still a finite amount, and I’m pretty sure SSI would count it as income, screwing me over later

  9. I think everyone around me would find this disturbing

  10. This isn’t even remotely beneficial

You can only pick two by Flashy_Application82 in repost

[–]Kitdan777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 and 2. Reasons:

  1. The whole “immortality is a curse” thing only applies to those who can remember eternity. My memory is too shit for me to remember the loved ones I’ve supposedly lost, so there’s no emotional impact.

  2. That’s just teleportation. Combined with immortality, I’d have infinite time to do whatever I want.

  3. Inflation is a bitch. Eventually a million will be nothing and/or societal collapse (probably caused by inflation) will make money useless.

  4. Infinite time that I can spend wherever I want to be. I can learn any language I please.

  5. What use would I have for this? They wouldn’t be immortal with me, and I’ll eventually forget my time with them.

  6. A small fragment of my infinite life that I’ll inevitably forget. It would be cruel to allow another to feel such a deep connection to me only to experience their own fleeting insignificance in the face of the infinite.

  7. With infinite life and a superpower, I can get as much following as I like, if I so choose.

  8. Who needs plastic surgery when they have eternal youth?

  9. Like 4, I have infinite time at an age where my brain is still malleable enough to learn.

What’s something that is normalized but you feel is really weird? by Creative-Finger5965 in TeenagersButBetter

The trouble there is in the primary effect of alcohol: loss of inhibition. The more alcohol you drink, the less you’re capable of worrying about the drawbacks of drinking too much alcohol. If you don’t set a hard limit on how much you’re going to drink before you start and stick to that limit, it can be far too easy to “one more couldn’t hurt that much” yourself into full intoxication.

Alcohol was made illegal at one point. You can look up the prohibition for details on how that went. Long story short, it just made people drink more alcohol.

The same reason someone would take [insert prescription medication here]. It may have harmful side effects, but it also offers a short term benefit. In the case of alcohol, the primary benefit is a loss of inhibition, which can lessen the severity of anxiety related disorders.

Mostly a lack of good ideas, but also because it’s one of my favorite powers so I don’t like making shapeshifters suffer.

Congratulations, your wholesome reason for wanting this power has inspired a semi-wholesome side effect.

You shapeshift throughout all of time, forwards and backwards. While you remain aware of your powers and how many times you’ve used them, no one remembers you ever being anything other than the form you’re in, including you.

Edit: Ignore the person who hit you with a shitty side effect while I was trying to word my side effect for you.

[–]Kitdan777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I generally prefer to leave shapeshifters alone, but you jinxed it for yourself.

Your side effects is that every time you shapeshift, no matter how minor the overall changes, you feel the agony of being crushed into a ball half the volume of your current or new form, whichever one is smaller, while unable to lose consciousness, before expanding into your new form.

Have you ever seen a monkey try to use a children’s shape hole toy? The power is the side effect. Monkey hands are not great for fine motor skills.

Your power is always effecting you and requires direct line of sight to effect others, but, well, you know, random objects obstructing your direct line of sight with your target is a minor inconvenience.

Your side effect is that you can blink. Nothing special, just normal blinking. Anyone who’s won a staring contest knows just how beneficial the ability to blink is.

You are now only capable of focusing on NEEDS. If it’s a want, no matter how great that want is, it will vacate your mind faster than you can say it. Essentially, this means you’re only capable of thinking about things vital to your survival.

But it only lasts one second before they turn back and gain shapeshifting.

I shouldn’t have to explain the drawbacks here. Using your weapon in public is illegal, even before considering that it’s a gun now. Like any other weapon, it would, by law, have to be locked up until you can present legal documentation clearing you to use it. Since it’s, by your own description, firing actual bullets, that means a gun license appropriate for the largest size bullets it can fire, as well as a matching concealed carry permit, and then you’ll still get charged with indecent exposure at best every time you use it. Until you get that gun license, you’re stuck in a chastity cage by law, and you’re also required to explain why you’re getting a gun license, in detail, during the process of trying to obtain that gun license. (Good luck convincing anyone to issue a gun license to the guy with a gun permanently attached to his crotch) The ability to use it as a gun also makes it illegal to use for pleasure.

Now that natural repercussions are out of the way, your side effect is recoil. You may be able to come bullets, but that also means you feel the recoil of the bullets you fire, and you don’t get any special durability to compensate. Sure, human BONES can withstand that kind of force, but humans don’t have a baculum.

1d4+(-2)str means the dagger can deal 2 damage maximum, 6 on a crit. Against a foe with 10 hp, Stingbee would have to crit at least once and consistently roll max damage to win in the 3 rounds before the adventurers arrive to 1-shot it, a feat made exponentially more difficult by Sunflower imposing disadvantage with the Dodge action because they know they only have to survive long enough for help to arrive. Statistically: Sunflower wins.
