"Aww..." Meme looks sad. She wanted to prank people! ...She quickly points at his feet to make his socks freeze anyway! (MAG: 40+8?) They would drop to the temperature of an ice cube for about 3 seconds.
Will gives Meme a stern look.

"Yes, Lunette?"
"Can I come in?"
"What's the magic word?"

Will scoops up Meme as she runs into his room before putting her in Lunette's arms.

"Please stay out of my room. Knock first."

Closed-room murder elemental? Rather than being useful in open environments where a wall is useful for protection, they'd be useful in confined spaces where the requirements for closed-room murders are satisfied.

Since closed-room murder is an intangible concept, they'd be very fragile but, due to their composition involving murder, they'd be very damaging.
Rather too intangible, though. And you might be thinking too hard about this. Air elemental works. Maybe an association with open windows.

Will's shoes are not in their usual place. Almost as if he can intuit likely targets of pranking...

4401
the line of thought wall = earth elemental, window = air elemental works
But glass is hard (if fragile) and solid. So it doesn't really fit as Neferis's mirror. Eh.
You expect elementals to be a precise mirror of the traits of what they are elementals of? That's absurd. Exhibit A: Fire elementals.

I have no idea what a reverse ICARUS would even be like.

a window elemental?
Maybe.

Wait, if everything is mirrored, wouldn't their composition be the equivalent to this world's antimatter?
Why would it be? Using that argument, they should also have -4 limbs and all be dead.

"Good idea. We just have to wait until someone gets a shower...hmm..maybe we can make someone dirty so they have to take one?"
<You might want to take your bracelets off before you scheme, you know...>

4404
Really, you can just eyeball it until it looks like a reverse of your normal character.

Random.

The one thing I dislike about the current engine: you can fork parts but you can't get them back together again. You can't build a square box without a lot of space tape.
Huh? What about bi- and tri- and quad-couplers?

Mirror!Neferis would be some kind of extremely friendly water elemental, wouldn't she? I wouldn't mind playing that.
Likelier air elemental or wind spirit or something. And they would be not from Egypt, but from...somewhere in the Pacific ocean? Hawaiian or Polynesian wind spirit?

Selina tries to panic and run away more!
You successfully panic.

Well, finally there's a reason to take cover. So...

Take cover.

4 of the dragon kinds in the doc are labeled as violent, I have a bit of a doubt that so far nothing happened apart from dragons just kinda wandering around doing nothing
Four...out of twelve. That's a 2/3 majority, and dragons tend to listen to each other.
Plus, they've been asleep for most of a millennium. Think about how much the world has changed since they last awoke. Also think of how they've mentioned that this cycle has been screwed up. Even the violent ones aren't interested in just attacking wily-nilly.

the difference between genius and colossal idiot is the question wether or not she crossed dimensions on purpose.
Very much so.

...What would happen if she also has hyperfertility? Would Kyle get pregnant as well?
Oh god, yes please. That would be absolutely hilarious. And then, of course being Kyle, he'd make some sort of complicated contraption to bring his love child to term quickly and efficiently.
Wouldn't female hyperfertility mean they always got pregnant?
...And would that mean that a KylexAnnette relationship would lead to a number of multiple births?



Anyone have a mirror version of themselves ready and want to play him/her?

Which one?
Most were probably covered by real-world Euhemerists, but I'll take a crack at Euhemerising the Judeo-Christian* God, focusing on the earlier parts of the Old Testament for reasons I will cover.
*Why is he called "the Judeo-Christian God"? Muslims must feel so left out.

This individual would have likely built an empire from a number of slaves he freed. After that, he would have built up a cult around himself, demanding that the former slaves abandon their other gods and devote themselves to him. He made a number of parables about people who displeased him, ranging from two orphans he let live in his garden until they stole fruit from one of the trees[1], to how he flooded an entire province for failing to adhere to his laws, as well as those who followed them. He ruled for a while and then died. Genesis is a collection of these parables, corrupted and expanded through the generations, as the emperor's claims of godhood became accepted as fact; later books of the Bible were either histories, sermons of further preachers, or more parables that became accepted as fact.

Then the Christians came along...
