>>40381410Ah, Gots, the quintessential inspiration for "prosthetic-wielding badasses". Fun trivia, even though Guts seems to be practically a 1:1 IRL-to-manga translation of this guy down to the name, Miura has said that he'd never heard of the guy until asked about him.
Let it be known that there being a cool lady with a prosthetic arm in a thing I'm writing atm is actually a coincidence kek.The poem... The Grey Monk? That's a very good one, wow. Oh, I didn't mention it, but the lyrics to the song was a nice touch, pretty foreboding.
>>40386071Funnily enough that's something I discussed a couple days ago. I'm not sure that was a simple way though, it was a pretty complex application. A simpler way would be to have pressure plates wherever the prosthetic touches living tissue that can be activated with the muscle. For example, forearm muscles for an arm prosthetic. Then the pressure plates complete a "mechanical action" glyph that actuate whatever mechanism in the prosthetic to close hands and such.
I think a naturally occurring glyph is plausible. If it can happen by chance, it would have to be a pretty simple glyph/spell. However, it could be a more complex spontaneous circuit if it's empowered by divination.
Like, the AI text for /wAIfu/ is generated by splattering ink onto paper, among others. You could have complex glyphs generated this way instead of text, if it's supported by suitable divination magic.
