PraetorDragoon Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 I had the idea to write some stories from the perspective of the "corrupted minions" aka the people that have struck a bargain with the dark power to fulfil their goals. Interested to see how much I can toy with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested to see how much I can toy with that. I always feel that that perspective has a lot of potential. People justify all kinds of shitty behaviour to themselves. Interesting to explore how people justify the really bad shit, like feeding to the world to some ancient evil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phototoxin Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 *sigh* No wyrd wed due to D&D overlap, Thursday is infinity (too busy), 'Faux Friday is magic night and there's too much overlap. Why must all the hoops be on fire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirial Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 "The ends justify the means"? If the means is the end of everything, the ends have to be pretty compelling. I think the ability to justify all kinds of strange behaviour to oneself is the most fascinating feature of the human mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phototoxin Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 You do. That's the fascinating part. I'm not sure about that. Humans are pretty good at lying to themselves.

Phototoxin Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 On the plus side Crush I might get to play Malifaux on Friday. My old club have un-banned me after realising that I'm not a noob-crusher with anger issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PraetorDragoon Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 He sure did My guess is someone took their loss a little too personally, and rather than blame their own tactical ineptitude, blamed Photo for being good at the game The "Whiny little kid syndrome"?

Absolution Black Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Yeah, whatever happened to "lets crush these b******s into the dirt"...that seemed to be the norm when I was a kid doing competitive sports!

Absolution Black Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 hmm..well I guess ours also followed similar lines in terms of assessing fitness etc. But we were taught to be competitive in everything we do, but also the value of losing as well as winning, and to take defeat graciously as long as you gave it a good go!

Absolution Black Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 lol, I sucked at art..not because I can't draw..i am reasonably good at the basics, but more because I just couldn't be bothered drawing endless vases of flowers or bowls of fruit.
