Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, July 25, 2023Dumb can be dangerous
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, July 15, 2023
So we love our clever villains, our smooth criminals, the conniving sly characters that use their brains to thwart the heroes and be a real menace. Like the riskiest game of chess, the hero has to match that kind of villain in strategy and smarts as well as determination, prowess ...
No One of Consequence
Banes at 12:00AM, July 13, 2023

Banes at 12:00AM, June 8, 2023
There are many areas where the “rule of three” comes into play. There are plenty of them in storytelling.
