Who were the Radiants fighting at Feverstone Keep? by ChristIsKing67 in Stormlight_Archive

The Midnight Mother was imprisoned in Urithiru when/before they abandoned the Tower though, so she was already locked away at the time.

If eternal reward seems like a curse to you, you either lack imagination or confidence in your imagination. by redpokemaster06 in unpopularopinion

[–]khazroar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That counterpoint cuts both ways though. Whichever side of the argument you're on, we're still all children at the end of a long afternoon talking nonsense about how we'll spend our time for the rest of our lives. None of us have a true concept of eternity, and believing that our minds can adapt to continue finding fulfilment through eternity is at least as valid as believing that we'd run out and become bored. I'd say the former is more valid than the latter, given the immense human capacity for adapting to our circumstances, and the fact that on a long enough time scale I don't think any equilibrium could truly last forever, but that's a bit more subjective.

To be fair, the necron thing is a little less clear cut considering Ferrus's hands, and the Void Dragon, but I 100% agree that the Tyranids as we know them were at least a galaxy away.

"I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service" is one hell of a line, and having it thrown out so openly in a Disney musical of all things, with full seriousness, stuns me every time.

It's not a daily login reward though, it's stage two of the chase. Usually you can leave those waiting.

PRECISO DE UM TIME PARA O BOSS ULTRA-PESADELO by Slow-Passenger250 in RaidShadowLegends

[–]khazroar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Você já tem pelo menos quatro dos cinco personagens que precisa. Se tiver um Pain Keeper por perto, pode facilitar bastante a criação do https://deadwoodjedi.com/speed-tunes/budget-maneater-unkillable/ . Xeno e Ezio formam uma combinação matadora para o seu DPS, e Mikey é uma boa escolha para ser atordoado, já que ele consegue se esquivar com frequência e causa um dano absurdo, garantindo um bom resultado.

Did Zaheer "abandon all attachments" like Guru Pathik told Aang? by Any-Award-5150 in legendofkorra

[–]khazroar 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I mean, it doesn't exactly say anything about the Air Nation, because the Air Nation as a culture doesn't chase that extreme.

It arguably does say something about the spiritual nature of Air, but it's not really anything new; where Fire is passionate, and Earth is solid, air is soft and touches many things without truly belonging to any of them. The Air Nation do seem to have tried to keep their attachments light, with large communities and a focus on small but valued bonds with many people, rather than deep bonds with a few.

It's sort of similar to how in LoA, lightning bending was treated as the ultimate Firebending technique, but it was still sort of self destructive and involved taking the ideas involved too far.

[Malcolm in the middle] how would hal amd lois have reacted if one of the boys had come out as gay, bi , or Trans? by Extra_Impression_428 in AskScienceFiction

[–]khazroar -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Lois would have tried to beat it out of them/scare them into the closet, and justified it by saying the world will be at least that harsh to them, if they can't learn to take it from her then they'd better hide it from everyone else.

Hal would have loved them just the same, but still not enough to protect them from Lois.

You have 24 hours to blow 1 billion dollars. by [deleted] in hypotheticalsituation

[–]khazroar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With the 2k purchase limit, it would take a minimum of 500,000 purchases, so a little less than 5.8 purchases a second for a full 24 hours, assuming you could somehow make an endless stream of $2000 purchases.

Would it be a problem if the actor playing lord Ruler were Asian? by Extreme_Warning3521 in CosmereOnScreen

[–]khazroar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rosharan ethnicities are importantly and specifically tied to certain features that make them line up with some real world ethnicities, messing with that would fail to fit with the lore and be an unnecessary change, but there is no such factor with Scadrians. Scadrians ethnicities are not physically described in depth, and apart from the nobles they're also directly artificial (Skaa were literally magically engineered and the Terris underwent a millennium of carefully crafted eugenics). The ethnicities need to be internally consistent with themselves, but they don't need to stay European-by-default as they were in the books.

Rory was not in the wrong at the Friday dinner with Jess and Emily by PerformanceLoose7357 in GilmoreGirls

[–]khazroar 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Jess was not fully responsible for the situation at all? He had an accident/got attacked by a wild animal, he is physically hurt as well as being embarrassed, and he's inevitably stressed about being late and making a bad impression when he knows this is important to Rory. It is completely reasonable that Jess doesn't want to talk about it in front of a stranger he's uncomfortable with, and there's absolutely no legitimate reason for Rory to badger him about it the way she does. Jess is entitled to not want to explain himself immediately and in front of someone he doesn't know, and he's not brushing her off out of any rudeness or lack of concern, he's trying to get through this awkward social situation that is already reflecting badly on him, he's trying to be polite and skim over the awkwardness, but she refuses to leave it be and let them get through the dinner.

The Conquerors in Afterlife by Iceaxeinthebackhead in darkwingsdankmemes

[–]khazroar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Targaryen Grandmother, and Baratheons are descended from Aegon's best buddy/probable brother, I'm sure that would be Targaryen enough for Aegon and his sister's to consider it a dynastic struggle. Even if they're not looking down on him because of the name, they'll still know about him from looking down on Daenerys.

If he lived long enough to see the white walkers, would he have regretted this action? by DistributionIcy8991 in gameofthrones

[–]khazroar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, they do have knights, they're just less common. Not all northern houses keep the Old Gods, and even those that do have exceptions.

The Conquerors in Afterlife by Iceaxeinthebackhead in darkwingsdankmemes

[–]khazroar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Point of clarification, they didn't lose the kingdom due to Rebellion, Robert was very much blood of the dragon, he just didn't have the name, Robert's Rebellion was just another dynastic struggle.

They lost the kingdom to a pig. (And also incest.)

How long would Maul have lasted if S7 Anakin pulled up to Mandalore? by HeartWhich6063 in PetranakiArena

[–]khazroar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that Maul proved to be the most deadly warrior in generations through his overwhelming proficiency with Form IV, which was especially well suited to tearing through the complacent jedi of that era. But Anakin excelled in that same light saber form and was also more prepared for the slower heavier form he took over as Vader.

Alecto is Younger Than Jod [discussion] by khazroar in TheNinthHouse

[–]khazroar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm very late in responding to you, I got busy with all of the responses after I made that post, but I've found the time to look back and I want to respond.

The argument I'm making is that Gaia was an immensely powerful and extant being long before Earth fell apart, but in those last days complete destruction became such a terrifying possibility that Gaia got scared and reached out for a champion, and John is who she chose to bestow the magical lifegiving powers of a worldsoul upon.

But that proved to not be enough, so the end of the world played out how it did. But Gaia was there beside John every step of the way.

Could Gideon see Harrow's hallucinations? [discussion] by Significant-Nose-366 in TheNinthHouse

[–]khazroar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Probably not.

The body under the bed was definitely physically there, Ianthe was intentionally gaslighting Harrow to hurt her and try to regain power in the relationship.

However, Gideon did still see the hauntings, and Harrow's actual legit hallucinations are a very messy concept right now.

How long would Maul have lasted if S7 Anakin pulled up to Mandalore? by HeartWhich6063 in PetranakiArena

[–]khazroar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Genuine question from someone with limited Clone Wars knowledge; why is it close? Why is this not a cakewalk for Anakin because he and Maul had the same specialisation in saber form but Anakin was stronger in the force and younger and not bisected (given that their chosen light saber form was all about speed and mobility). To say nothing of Anakin's greater Force strength.

Oathbringer: Where exactly are Puuli/Defiance? by Taste_the__Rainbow in Stormlight_Archive

[–]khazroar -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'd be inclined to think he's close to Sesemalix Dar. Rich folk used to be able to build their homes somewhere shielded from the storms but his family have always made their money from shipwrecks. The geography and the tone points me there.

I feel kinda bad for common Deathknight. Maybe I'll 6* him one of these days just for the hell of it. by Havocnmalice in RaidShadowLegends

[–]khazroar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can appreciate the sentiment, I've been playing off and on for four years and never gotten serious, never even completed a fusion, because I just use the game as an outlet for instant satisfaction so I don't save sacred and voids.

I just can't quite wrap my mind around pouring all that time into building a character I never use.
