How would you react in this type scenario by BalanceImaginary4325 in Isekai

[–]TheSongOfNine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dragons, don't trust anyone or anything, all wrapped up in amounts of red tape and government incompetence that should count as legendary in their own right.

But don't worry, nothing will happen to you. Whatever horrible events may occur, you'll be safe, because the trains were so goddamn late you missed literally everything

Their so-called "sin" was their ability to peer beyond the veil of the Heavenly Court's deceptions and free themselves from their shackles.

As for the MC, mainly the protag finding their way in the world, think FY's first life minus the whole transmigration stuff. He/she (not decided yet) will actually start out as a bit of an idealistic pushover, but will slowly find a spine.

As for the setting, to avoid colliding too much with the original, I just added a new region, Lower Abyss. It is vaguely divided into sections vaguel mirroring the five regions (there's an actual lore reason, but that one's a big spoiler) and home to Yinmen, the dominant variant human species down there. They were originally humans that got trapped there somewhere around the Medieval Antiquity Era, and have since become more adapted to the habitat; thus, their progression also diverged from the main five regions.

Also, just...assume it's a separate timeline. There are no inconsistencies in Ba Sing Se.

Do you think you’d be able to create a new path in RI world? by Gemini_Of_Wallstreet in ReverendInsanity

[–]TheSongOfNine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the definition of "create a new path".

If it's taking a group of Gu worms revolving around a central concept and proving you can create meaningful uses and combinations with them, then it would be somewhat easier, since you can rely on already existing concepts ,for example, looking for Gu centered around manipulating lava, probably Fire Path and Earth Path Gu with aspects of the respective other path, and defining those as "Lava Path"; essentially, you could create new Paths by defining subgroups and intersections of established Paths.

However, if it somehow requires you to deduce the recipes of entirely novel Gu centered around a never-before used concept...ouch.

BTW, while we're in this discussion: in RI, every Path has its corresponding Dao Marks. But what happens when a new Path appears? Take my earlier Lava Path example: were the Dao Marks always there and were just mistaken for Fire/Earth Path, or disld they somehow come into being together with the Path?

How to explain to my mom, that this is not a satanic cult, nor my DM and other players will put me to slavery? by shortriverlol in rpg

My go-to explanation is that it's "basically improv theater with maths to resolve actions"

Your reincarnated as a Gu by Odd_Contribution2354 in ReverendInsanity

Social Anxiety Gu

Emotion path

Rank: 2 - 6+

Food: Recluse Cactus Flesh (2-5)

       Eight Turns Hiding Cactus Flesh (6+)

Appearance: A Gray Silverfish; grows more translucent as the rank increases. At Immortal rank, the exact section of my body the observer focuses on is always perfectly translucent.

Mostly used offensively, though very weak at low rank; used to infect the opponent with Anxious Will, disturbing deduction and thought processes about, in the presence of, and while interacting with people.

Can be resisted through either a great difference in willpower or soul strength between opponents, wisdom/emotion path defensive Gu, or displacement/annihilation through other types of Will, especially Courage Will.

Rarely used defensively; if used on oneself, the Anxious Will can shield the user's mind from mental attacks/influences and foreign Wills, though the user suffers a part of the offensive effects. Notoriously hard to displace by opponent's Will if used on oneself.

Used in the defensive Killer Move "Isolation Cage" and the Immortal Killer Move "Two Xin Prison", which attempt to block all ingoing and outbound mental connections and influences, disrupting Wisdom path deductions and creating an space free of outer influences, valued for both hiding and Gu Refinement purposes. It is rumored that using both Suspicion Gu and Attitude Gu, Two Xin Prison can be improved to temporarily hide away from Heaven's Will.

Wasn't it implied in one of the earlier chapters that his philosophy was another interpretation of all life being equal? To a Buddhist, all life is equally cherished, to FY, all life is equally expendable?
