[QUOTE="Hairfoot, post: 3156948, member: 23732"] Some of you will notice that I've ripped this thread topic from wizboards. It was funny there, but I think it'll be enjoyed more here because...of obvious reasons (katanaz would roXX00r even more than real life!!!!). ----- The family of every influential person was brutally murdered, leaving the remaining child on a vendetta of revenge. Musicians can not only talk their way out of a fight, but convince career mass-murderers to buy them drinks. Any experienced athlete can leap about like super Mario, crushing world records each time they jump a puddle. A boxer can lead with a fakey, but waits six seconds to take his real shot. In a fight, Oprah Winfrey can intimidate more effectively than Mike Tyson. In a world of weaklings, the strong would consistently encounter people who possess exceptional powers and talents equal to their own, and accept them into their trusted peer group without question. Armies would be led by 21-year-old generals; universities would be run by archmages barely old enough to vote. People would work long and arduous hours at a trade, while savage beasts in the wilderness have enough cash strewn about their lairs to buy a gold-plated humvee. Civic leaders would graciously acquiesce to heavily armed vigilantes who pass through town and offer to resolve local public safety issues (such as orcs). Despite a life of bruising, unforgiving violence, the more experienced and dangerous a female warrior becomes, the better looking and less-clad she is. Felony and violent conflict would plummet, because people would only encounter challenges they were skilled and equipped enough to deal with. [/QUOTE]
