Helpful things for action writers to remember

Sticking a landing will royally fuck up your joints and possibly shatter your ankles, depending on how high you’re jumping/falling from. There’s a very good reason free-runners dive and roll. 

Hand-to-hand fights usually only last a matter of seconds, sometimes a few minutes. It’s exhausting work and unless you have a lot of training and history with hand-to-hand combat, you’re going to tire out really fast. 

Arrows are very effective and you can’t just yank them out without doing a lot of damage. Most of the time the head of the arrow will break off inside the body if you try pulling it out, and arrows are built to pierce deep. An arrow wound demands medical attention. 

Throwing your opponent across the room is really not all that smart. You’re giving them the chance to get up and run away. Unless you’re trying to put distance between you so you can shoot them or something, don’t throw them. 

Everyone has something called a “flinch response” when they fight. This is pretty much the brain’s way of telling you “get the fuck out of here or we’re gonna die.” Experienced fighters have trained to suppress this. Think about how long your character has been fighting. A character in a fist fight for the first time is going to take a few hits before their survival instinct kicks in and they start hitting back. A character in a fist fight for the eighth time that week is going to respond a little differently. 

ADRENALINE WORKS AGAINST YOU WHEN YOU FIGHT. THIS IS IMPORTANT. A lot of times people think that adrenaline will kick in and give you some badass fighting skills, but it’s actually the opposite. Adrenaline is what tires you out in a battle and it also affects the fighter’s efficacy - meaning it makes them shaky and inaccurate, and overall they lose about 60% of their fighting skill because their brain is focusing on not dying. Adrenaline keeps you alive, it doesn’t give you the skill to pull off a perfect roundhouse kick to the opponent’s face. 

Swords WILL bend or break if you hit something hard enough. They also dull easily and take a lot of maintenance. In reality, someone who fights with a sword would have to have to repair or replace it constantly.

Fights get messy. There’s blood and sweat everywhere, and that will make it hard to hold your weapon or get a good grip on someone. 

A serious battle also smells horrible. There’s lots of sweat, but also the smell of urine and feces. After someone dies, their bowels and bladder empty. There might also be some questionable things on the ground which can be very psychologically traumatizing. Remember to think about all of the character’s senses when they’re in a fight. Everything WILL affect them in some way. 

If your sword is sharpened down to a fine edge, the rest of the blade can’t go through the cut you make. You’ll just end up putting a tiny, shallow scratch in the surface of whatever you strike, and you could probably break your sword. 

ARCHERS ARE STRONG TOO. Have you ever drawn a bow? It takes a lot of strength, especially when you’re shooting a bow with a higher draw weight. Draw weight basically means “the amount of force you have to use to pull this sucker back enough to fire it.” To give you an idea of how that works, here’s a helpful link to tell you about finding bow sizes and draw weights for your characters.  (CLICK ME)

If an archer has to use a bow they’re not used to, it will probably throw them off a little until they’ve done a few practice shots with it and figured out its draw weight and stability. 

People bleed. If they get punched in the face, they’ll probably get a bloody nose. If they get stabbed or cut somehow, they’ll bleed accordingly. And if they’ve been fighting for a while, they’ve got a LOT of blood rushing around to provide them with oxygen. They’re going to bleed a lot. 

Here’s a link to a chart to show you how much blood a person can lose without dying. (CLICK ME)

what up i’m tricks i’m 26 and i completely fuckin forgot how to delete a sideblog

hi hey, this might seem like deja vu but oops, my simple ass accidentally deleted my entire tumblr account when i was trying to delete a hoarded url. and it looks like my posts will show up in the tag again now, so this is just a reminder that i exist if you saw me posting in the tag already, or an actual introduction if you didn’t 👍

name/alias: tricks


age: 26


preferred pronouns: they/them


timezone: cst


how long have you been roleplaying? if you’re counting the dinky harry potter site i joined when i was twelve: fourteen years. if you’re counting the psychonauts rp that i self-inserted all over and caused a total retcon of site events: twelve years. if you count from where i start counting: nine years jesus christ. but i haven’t been on a site in a good four years. what am i doing


favorite faces: oh god, any hot dude with pecs and arms honestly. i’m a simple bitch with simple pleasures. hunter parrish, taron egerton, gregg sulkin, cody christian, aaron tveit, grant gustin, daniel sharman, matt lanter, jason momoa, parker hurley, idris elba, matthew daddario, dylan minnette, freddie stroma, i could honestly sit here all day peddling sin and nipples. for girls i love zendaya, emeraude toubia, billie lourd, gracie gillum, naya rivera, and many others


favorite plots/tropes: for ships, if it would serve as the flimsy premise of a porno i’ve probably written it. some faves are friends into lovers, best friend’s brother, stepbrothers, former classmates, two bros sitting in a hot tub trying desperately to fend off their fervent need to close the five foot gap between them because they’re super gay, etc. some of the most fun ones are the ships you never expected though. for group plots i love me some coffee shop employees and giant messy families


what you’re looking forward to: i don’t even know, the idea of getting back onto a site again is pretty exciting, and also friendship, and also The Gays™


tell us about you/anything else!!! pls be gentle it’s been a while. um. i make sandwiches for a living. i recently came out as nonbinary. i’m an ENFP and a hufflepuff. i’m a cancer sun/leo moon/taurus rising and most of my fucking chart is in leo; my entire chart is basically one extended personal attack on the fact that i’m incredibly conceited yet simultaneously incredibly insecure. also my discord is trx#5127, be my friend, i luv u all, my name is trey and i’ve got a basketball game tomorrow, i’m so sorry for how frequently i reference vines, they’re the greatest form of humor,

disgustingly cute domestic scenes to imagine your otp in:

getting slightly too drunk in the middle of the afternoon and slow dancing to dumb cheesy old music and kissing in a way that’s more laughter than actual kissing, mouths clumsy and hands gripping tight and sunlight slanting over them as they move lazily together 

curling up on the sofa together, feet tucked under thighs and arms around shoulders, watch the kind of crap tv that only airs at 3am because they don’t want to go to untangle themselves to go to bed

hectic mornings when they each need to be somewhere and they’re rushing around each other, ducking into bathrooms and bedrooms and kitchen cupboards, pausing to straighten tops and press kisses to cheeks

going through old photos together and collapsing into laughter every three pictures, and zooming in on ones where they’re pulling awful faces or ones that were taken at just the wrong moment

getting ready for nights out together, standing shoulder to shoulder as they brush their teeth or get their faces ready or style their hair, knocking elbows and hips as they try and hog more space

standing quietly together in the kitchen after long, exhausting days, leaning into each other for support, breathing in the smell of home, fingers carding through hair and stroking down spines, until they feel like they can relax and smile properly again
