Kobold King

Nah, he was just falling back to figure out a plan before rejoining. I'll get posts up soon. Before he rejoins he'll be trying to talk to Edgerunner for a minute.

We're so good at patience we can be patient and impatient at the same time.

Claim this thread all you like, overworlders. While you plant your flags in the surface an army of random kobolds with a dazzling array of gifs and pony memes shall wait patiently for their turn to rule.

Kobold reappears next to a puzzled-looking child with an empty ant farm.

Cuts the red wire.

It might not be a true Rending or corruption side effect, even if he thinks he is. We have documented memory loss as a by-product of an Epic's powers, like with Firefight. Maybe the berserk rage and memory loss is just a quirk of his powers.

Samuel L. Jackson as Prof? I am strangely okay with this.

There's a difference between deciding that you probably won't like a thing, and looking other people in the eye and telling them that the thing they love that you've never touched sucks. A lot of people on the Internet veer towards the latter.

Gonna have to agree with those other people. If you're going just by what you've heard about a work you don't have the right to judge it. You can say that it doesn't sound like your cup of tea, but declaring you hate something without even taking a look for yourself is illogical. Case in point: do you know how many people scoff at Brandon Sanderson, never once touching his books but telling all who will listen what pieces of garbage they and other fantasy books are?

Amateur. Also, Gravity Falls fans, did you know that Bill Cipher did an AMA on Reddit?

You must have an old-fashioned toaster. Everything has a keyboard nowadays!

No comment.

It snowed. Here. In central Texas. It snowed and it's cold and I have to work outside. Do not want.

"Mr. Protagonist, we found this video message that your late archnemesis left for you to watch in the event of his death." "No! I won't watch it! I hate him!" "But Mr. Protagonist, this message might hold vital information that could help you in some way!" "How do you figure? I hated him, he hated me. Every second he had on screen was either an attempt at killing me or gloating about being about to kill me." "But Mr. Protagonist..." "Ugh, fine, I'll watch his stupid video." "Huzzah! It is almost certainly pertinent information about some new threat to the city, or a revelation about why he did the terrible things he did that will utterly change the way we view his character!" The message is actually a picture still of the villain flipping the bird at the camera. "What did I tell you?"

It's incredimazible so far, and I see no reason not to share the gift around as much as humanly possible. Go ahead and post the link!

You don't have to combine the two names, considering Santa and Calamity are already the same person.

That moment you realize there's a clever hack in your paranormal sci-fi setting that allows for entire species to develop their own magic systems:

He can fly and he has an enhanced sense of sight that makes him a good aim with a gun. His main power is his PI, though--if you attack him and break his skin, the damage you do to him instantly heals and reflects onto your body. If you shoot him in the face, your head will be the one that winds up with a bullet hole. Stab him in the chest, and you're the one who's gonna bleed to death.

I'd hesitate to say that, since I'm well aware that the same things could be said of Deathwish and I'd hate to be a hypocrite. But I find the distinction between Epic-caused damages and damages that may-or-may not have been caused by Epics rather confusing.

We have an Epic who can turn pebbles into buses and an Epic who can pull an infinite number of Sausage McMuffins from his pockets, the latter of which Brandon Sanderson himself commented on.

In the same vein, what if an Epic with the power to make bombs blew up the building he's in, causing him to become hit by shrapnel? Why doesn't a mind-controlled minion count as an Epic-caused attack while a thrown tank that's merely following a trajectory set for it by the laws of physics does? I'm just trying to figure out what the basic rule is here.

What if a flight Epic tried to pick him up? What if a strength Epic threw a tank at him? What if a mind control Epic had one of his minions kill him?

What if an Epic simply shoots him in the face? Or what if he was standing at ground zero when Obliteration destroys a city? The heat from the melting buildings alone would incinerate him, let alone the direct blast from Obliteration.
