Also fun fact: Mey’s great-great-great-great-(~x50)-great-grandfather is the North Star.

Makes sense. The god of the wilds should be scary. In fact all gods should be scary.

Yeah but some of them are bigger assholes than others.
Obviously.
I remember what Overly Sarcastic Productions said: asking why a Greek god did something is a bit meaningless because they’re forces of nature. Why does Artemis sometimes reward hunters and punish them at other times? Because that’s how nature works. Why does Apollo spread disease sometimes and heals at other times? Because that’s how diseases work.

Is Warhammer 40k the slightly manlier version of Barbie?

Not really, because Barbie is cheaper!
I would compare it to He-Man meets Gundam meets Murphy’s Law.
Got it, so Barbie but more expensive.
I didn’t play with dolls/action figures enough to know the difference between things.
Though, fun fact: I, my brother and my cousin did play a Warhammer-esque game with stuffed toys and action figures as a child.

How many aliens did you genocide?
I think enough to pay for a data center for a year

StarCraft II is doing the heavy lifting here, but even otherwise the kill count is 41,200 across games, ~258,177 in total.
Serious Sam is also doing the heavy lifting here: 6,063 aliens, 122,945 kills.
The real kill count is probably higher, considering how much I played the games in my childhood.

I have a spreadsheet. All arguments are invalid.

I’m also thinking… I should have used SQL for my Codex Animalia. That would’ve allowed me to do so much. I could have had different tables for variants and basal morphs like I do with my current table, but I could use foreign keys to connect them, and the queries should return smart results.
But that might’ve been difficult for quick viewing, since I make a lot of changes every now and then, and I’d have to write a query every time I wanted to make a small change. Though… SQL IDEs so exist.
Or better: I should’ve just used JSON files. That would actually have made more sense. And I was gonna do that, though excel is easier to handle.

I’m thinking of using the words ‘satya’ and ‘asatya’ in my book, simply because ‘a war of satya and asatya’ sounds better than ‘a war of truth and falsehood.’ How would the western audience react to that?
I’m already using dharma and adharma, and those two concepts are pivotal to my book.

Mispronunciation.
A lot of English speakers can barely pronounce the words in their own language.
