      Firstly, the topic title is based off a chapter title from somewhere. I wish I’d thought of it myself, but I didn’t.

      Secondly, I thought it would be fun to have a ‘mix-up’ thread where we can share random ‘opposite type’ idea, contradictions in characters, and things that aren’t normally done, like a middle-aged woman being transported to a fantasy world instead of the common male teen (idea taken from Sharon Hinck’s on the Very Serious Writing show). Basically anything which goes against common stereotype, from flower loving villains dressed in pink to evil butterflies wielding time sabers. 😉

      INTJ - Inhumane. No-feelings. Terrible. Judgment and doom on everyone.

                evil butterflies wielding time sabers.

                That’s what I’ve been looking for. Now I can finally take over the world!

                          write the thing. Seriously, write it.

                          A blacksmith with an affinity for poetry. A talking tree who plays Paganini on the violin. An ogre who likes chocolate cake. An evil queen who likes to host elegant tea parties. A humongous dragon with a squeaky falsetto voice who likes to sing high harmony in the choir.

                          Aaaaand… a wizard whose favorite thing to do is cook— and whose favorite food to cook is spaghetti and meatballs.

                            Evil dragons with long teeth who are scared of the dark.

                            Love that!

                            An assassin who knits while waiting for victims to show up.

                            Knights who are trying to capture a dragon princess.

                            A mermaid who hates water.

                            A griffin afraid of heights.

                            And a fantasy where the character who comes into the fantasy land tries to take over and the people of that land have to stop him.

                            INTJ - Inhumane. No-feelings. Terrible. Judgment and doom on everyone.

                              That actually reminds me of Madame Defarge in A Tale of Two Cities. 🙂

                                  @bluejay I don’t mind at all. My thought was that she is controlling the world from there. She has little birdies for minions.

                                  Evil elven queen.

                                  An old man hero with a girl for a mentor.
