hello my name is john c "wildbow" mccrae and i would like to invite you all to my new Weaverdice Playtest. you will all be playing as blasto clones of D. B. Cooper with implanted memories of triggering when your parachute failed to open. none of you will actually have powers

i feel like the people who use changer and self modifying tinker power expressions with transfeminin parahumans arent really putting their whole thought behind it, because like

yeah, i get it. changer powers come from dysphoria and self modifying/improvement tinkers come from being dissatisfied with their body on some fundamental that they want to change but that feels like you're reaching into the barrel of thoughts for power expressions based on trauma and going for surface level ideas

like, maybe we could consider the social environment *as well as* the internal environment? just a little? because i dont know if i would have triggered from the dysphoria *before* i would have triggered from the social isolation or any of a number of incidents throughout my younger years. and im just a stock standard trans woman, i haven't met one who isnt traumatized in some way, not including gender dysphoria based trauma

like i dunno, theres so many fun possibilities for powers outside of those two power expressions that could speak *beautifully* as extensions of trauma

The reason Ash Beast is like that is because he drank both the potion that heals you and and the potion that makes you handsome and then explodes you.

Goddess spins you around telekinetically before sex so you won't notice it fucking sucks.
