When Writing Fantasy, Kill Your Darlings. Literally.
How to kill your characters to achieve maximum story efficiency.

(A Xwitter blog 🧵)

"Murder your darlings." - Arthur Quiller-Couch (Though many have said similar sentiments.)

My family has been watching the second (and final) season of Arcane on Netflix. Arcane is a TV-series version of the video game League of Legends. Thus, by all the Laws of Nature, it should be unwatchable. Yet, shockingly, it is pretty good.

The great joy of Arcane is that its creators are keeping it short. A total of 18 episodes. Around 11 hours. Whether this is for artistic or budgetary reasons does not interest me. Eleven hours is enough time to tell just about any story.

This is great because it gets us into the last season quickly. If you are writing a fantasy epic, unless you really seriously blow it, the last season is going to be awesome.

(Yeah, yeah. I know. The last season of Game of Thrones was infamously terrible. Bear with me. I'll get to that.)

Why is the last season generally great?

Because you get to kill everyone and blow up the world. Arcane is killing characters left and right, and that enables good fantasy.

[FBRZD 🌲 Dungeon World 1.0 on Steam ⚔️ @fbrzd_games]

Character faces from Dungeon World! 🌲⚔️ (1/2)

For the next update, I’ll be adding these small portraits when NPCs are talking to you. I think it helps make the world feel a bit more alive.
