Mime



A GM has granted me the extension to the mime ability that will let 
me have 100 word-concepts that I can mime successfully to anyone no 
matter what language they speak. I think this is a cool concept 
although I'm not really sure where to start picking my words. I was 
thinking about starting with maybe 50 and then adding more as I need 
them.

 Prehaps have a word for not/un. As in "not" good. Which gives me a 
lot of opposites at the cost of a single word. Prehaps for numbers I 
could use a variant of binary and just take 1,2,4,8 and 0. Then I 
should be able to make most numbers out of them. I've never come 
across non base 10 in dq but I guess it is possible in which case 
numbers might be a problem but I guess I'll deal with that when I 
come to it. Prehaps a word-concept indicating a question. Kind of 
like a mimed "?" or the japanese word "ka". I think a word for 
religion might be good and some word that sums up "Huge big nasty 
monster thing". "Run" is always a favourite. How about "behind you"? 
Anyway I'm not really sure I can come up with even 50 words. Theres 
about 20 or so vital ones then its just to hard to narrow down the 
other 500 that might be important.

Any advice appreciated.
