How to make a character's death sadder

 Don’t have them die of old age after a long, fulfilling life. Many people don’t even think of this as sad (note that this can still work if you have enough of the other factors).

 Leave one of their major goals unfinished. The more enthusiastic they are about completing the goal, the sadder.

 Give them strong relationships with other characters.

 Make them fight against whatever is causing their death. Their ultimate loss is sadder if they struggle.

 Kill them in the middle of their character arc.

 Don’t describe their funeral in detail. Maybe it’s just me, but I find that long descriptions of funerals kill the sadness.

*opens document*

*rereads the one paragraph that was written two weeks ago*

"I think I made a lot of progress today."

“MAN THIS STORY I’M WRITING IS GONNA BE SO GOOD I’M SO PUMPED”

“I CAN’T WAIT TO DEVELOP THE SHIT OUT OF THESE CHARACTERS”

“HOT DAMN THAT ONE SCENE NEAR THE MIDDLE IS GONNA BE BITCHIN’”

“THIS PLOT TWIST IS THE SINGLE BEST IDEA I’VE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE”

"Oh, I know, DOCTOR Taylor... Remember me? My "conspiracy theories" don't sound nearly as delusional NOW, do they...?"

You are a recently hired psychiatrist at a mental hospital. Some of your patients insist that they were once staff, but are being held prisoner by the actual patients that now run the hospital.

"Time To... Tip The... Meh." Behold, Bryn! Or Brynja As She's Known In Plegia, To Avoid Being Confused

"Time to... tip the... meh." Behold, Bryn! Or Brynja as she's known in Plegia, to avoid being confused with the heirophant, who is said to be Brynign. She's in her thirties and finds the children in charge of Ylisse to be wholly unqualified for the job (but it's a monarchy, so what can you do?). Unlike Robin, who's hard for Chrom regardless of their gender, Bryn really only stands by him because that's usually in her best interest. The moment the war with Plegia was over, she moved to Ferox, and after the whole Grima business, returned home to Plegia (as it's queen, alongside Gangrel). Despite not remembering it, she's proud of her Plegian hertitage. She herself is nihilistic, but she appreciates that others have more hope than she does. She values material items more than experiences, because experiences are easily forgotten, and carries a thrift store's worth of seemingly useless trinkets and dodads on her person. I changed the default outfit a bit because, aside from the coat, the tactician outfit is very bland and ugly. I wanted her to look like a wandering mage (which she essentially is). The right side of her face is badly burnt, so she wears her emo bangs on that side. She does not have access to every class- her secondary class is mercenary, and her tertiary class is pegasus knight. She's married to Gangrel, and strangely, his own cynicism seems to have made her a bit more optimistic. Lucina is her daughter-in-law, and she absolutely hates that fact.

We Are Going To Enter Princess Dawns Dream And Illuminate The Astral Path To Wake Her Up. This Way, We

We are going to enter Princess Dawn’s dream and illuminate the Astral Path to wake her up. This way, we may be able to bring Dawn back to this land.

To do that, you need to draw in The Dreamland from 22nd November 5:00 AM to 28th November 11:59 PM. Each draw will give you some gifts and Stardust. As you accumulate Stardust to certain amounts, you will automatically gain 1 set from the 5 above.

One of the first 3 nodes will ensure that you receive either Queen Night or Princess Dawn. Besides a set, the last 2 nodes will give you a background each.
