nat 1 on insight

Shakespearean sonnets are the only valid form of poetry change my mind

I don’t think writing poems is an Insight check

for one thing I have ever written a poem and I’m not convinced I’ve ever passed an Insight check

knowing what a limerick is before writing is an insight check

Insight. Your Wisdom (Insight) check decides whether you can determine the true intentions of a creature, such as when searching out a lie or predicting someone’s next move. Doing so involves gleaning clues from body language, speech habits, and changes in mannerisms.

the capacity to gain an accurate and deep intuitive understanding of a person or thing.

Knowing what a limerick is is only an Insight check if the limerick is a creature

fight me

homebrew a limerick as a CR 1/8 construct

Because I can and I will, I can always be better, that’s my philosophy

So clearly as the person not at a STEM school I would know what counts as poetry

and I say that if it’s not a Shakespearean sonnet or the Aeneid it’s not poetry

@ literally no engineering

That last post by bep spells doom for town

But that may have already been obvious
