Normally, I would think what I'm about to ask is an odd question, but given the location and the circumstances, maybe not so much.

( this is gonna make for a good first poke at the network, innit, sammy? )

How many of you actually know about monsters? Spirits, things that go bump in the night, that sort of thing? Because where I'm from, they're pretty common, and I've noticed from meeting others here that it isn't that way for everyone.

( which is how it should be, if you ask him. nobody should know that the thing in their closet is real. )

Next question. Would anyone be interested in learning about things like that, and how to protect yourself against them?

( there. it's out there. he's doing a good thing. )

those are stories parents tell their kids when they're little. where i'm from, anyway. once they get old enough, monsters turn into bandit kings and explosive psychopaths.

[ Which are actually real. Monsters? Definitely real but more so a nuisance on Pandora. ]

it's the same as protecting against people - shoot them until theyre dead, right?

I've encountered a few creatures along those lines, Sam dear, but I can quite believe you know a great deal more. I'd be delighted to learn.

We had wendigos. I don't know if there's anything else though; we'd only found out about wendigos the night before we got here, and monsters weren't supposed to exist at all. Seems kind of weird if it was only wendigos though, right?

[Which is a terrifying thought, but why would wendigos be special?]

Any tips you have for you know, not dying when there's monsters are definitely going to be helpful though, yeah.

[He's definitely interested in learning. It could be really useful, and even if it isn't it'll be something to do.]

Hi!

I know a fair amount, as they definitely exist where I come from. :3

Such things exist in my world, though they're far from common. Any additional information you could provide would be helpful, though.

I know about magic.

[Monsters and spirits tend to go along with that.]

I'm afraid dark magic has a way of turning men into monsters, one way or another.

[It's a curious question, though maybe not as curious as it might be elsewhere, given what they have to contend with here.]

Do you know anything about shinigami?

[Texting is just too much effort right now, so.]

What kinds of monsters?

The only monsters are other humans.

[ she's purposely being kind of contrary, but she's a lot more afraid of what other people are capable than stories about things that go bump in the night. ]

I know of these things, and how to stop many of them.

What do you intend to teach people? Combat or something else?

I know stuff about dark magic. The monsters I know about are...ogres and witches and dark wizards and stuff. Which isn't like the monsters here, so...I definitely want to know more. So I can protect people. And my mom.

I know a great deal about monsters. Studying, tracking and killing them in the most effective way is my occupation.

Not monsters, exactly, but I'm familiar with spirits. Ghosts and other things, but not really like the creatures here.

Somehow I feel like I should be offended by this.

Are you gathering the villagers with their torches and pitchforks?

What would it involve? Protecting ourselves from them.

[ He'd asked Ciri about potions already. Gansey wants to be better equipped, but he's not foolish about his own limits. ]

I've never done well with violence. Most of the creatures here...it doesn't surprise me that they exist, but I wouldn't know where to start to fight them.

whoops have a super late video.

The only monsters from my world are machine and made by humans, for humans.

(This does make him relatively cautious though. His face is calm and neutral, however.)

And the monsters here, of course. The ones from the tunnels. Though it seems like you know more about it. What kind of monsters come from your world?
