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.
