FL: I was trying to figure out what makes up a Fool for a while, so I can get my thoughts in order to make an essay
FL: Right now, I have a handful of disconnected thoughts.
MI: the Fool class isn't part of the canon or fanon farrago class list right
FL: Correct
MI: I mean we already have the Fool
MI: in the form of Bard
MI: you could very easily say that bard fucks around with their aspect, like a jester or fool
FL: I seem to think that you have a different idea of a fool.
MI: I have the historical equivalent in mind
MI: but there are different definitions
FL: Meanwhile, I was thinking of the inexperienced, improvising, experimenting one that performs things through trial and error.
MI: some key elements of page there
FL: One that will not let preconceptions about the world be stated, when they can see it for themselves.
FL: Like, a lot of the core ideology behind the scientific method buried in there.
FL: The fool questions everything, and admits that they truly never know anything.
MI: this is sounding more like an aspect
FL: What do you know about aspects?
FL: If anything, this is more of an anti seer.
FL: But I admit, I cannot know that for certain.
MI: how would the fool use their aspect
FL: Literal mountains of corpses.
MI: I see
FL: At least, in the case of a Fool of Time
FL: For space, I could see them cutting off a bit of a pencil's lead, growing that piece, and then breaking off another fragment to continue to grow
FL: For Mind... Well, I'm not entirely sure what Mind does on a non-seer
MI: so your general idea is that fool experiments, usually very gradually in terms of size
FL: Yes.
MI: alright
FL: A fool experiments.
MI: that's a pretty interesting class
FL: With Light, I imagine they would try to manipulate the state of two objects independently that depend on eachother.
FL: And end up much, much later on, managing to create a Light based Quantum Computer
FL: Void? If they learned about how certain void players could pull objects into existence, they might try to pull more... conceptual things.
FL: For example, a physical manifestation of the square root of two.
FL: Heart? If we go with Glitch Faq's representation, They might try to change particular elements of a bunch of identical objects, created through alchemy
FL: Like messing with their shiny
FL: Could they turn a perfectly generic object into a sphere?
MI: maybe
FL: Thought: if a Fool came across a wall with a sign next to it saying wet paint, there is a decent chance of them touching it.
FL: Also decent chances to push random buttons
FL: I know I would absolutely love to experiment with alchemy and the punch card stunts/jumper extension
FL: For instance, try to alchemize something while a giant bust is taking up the space on the alchemiter
FL: I don't know what the God tier should look like
FL: Perhaps something with a coat.
MI: coat makes sense
