Fun fact, I try to make sure each of my characters represent a few facets of my own personality. Helps me make sure they act and react in a natural manner, or rather, what I hope looks like a natural manner. So if you want to be all technical about it, it is a little bit of me on an adventure

Well, I think that we all kinda do that. For example, I would have trouble playing a bright and bubbly character, but an aloof, detached character(sorta like Alexis) would be fairly easy to play.

Yea same here. I find it hard to play any character that can't shapeshift at will or cast fireballs when they've had a bad day...you know, just like in real life.

True, although I find that guano is more expensive than bleach and ammonia, and cloudkill is more fun than fireball anyway.

Pfft lighting Ether on fire is way more entertaining than mixing Ammonia with a chloride solution besides if you want true cloud kill all the cool kids use tetracarbon fluoride, I think a brown cloud is more fitting.

chlorine is cheap, and effective. It is also readily available. sometimes, handiness outweighs the coolness factor

I work on the principle that anybody in a Chem lab will gleefully mix chemicals for all sorts of reactions and giggle to themselves whilst they're at it. I have yet to be proven wrong on this

I would have done that in High School, but our school charged us for chemicals, and they charged a lot. Their price for distilled water was 4 dollars per fluid ounce.

agreed. We just used the sink water, and the chem teacher was always complaining about that.

Serves them right for charging you for distilled.

Indeed, you should have gotten your hands on a source of distilled water then charged it at a dollar per ounce.... you could have made a killing!

The school did not allow merchandising, unless you were in the business component. Sever kids were suspended, and one was expelled for underselling stuff that the school had.

you would also most likely find yourself in the principles office without your illegitimate goods, and illegally acquired money. My school was kinda evil. we even had a professional hall monitor, but no non-core classes. like art, or computers.

Principal wouldn't be able to do squat, I am not a student and if I sell my own distilled water they have absolutely no power to do anything. So there is nothing illegal about my merchandise since I acquired it personally from my own lab and if I sell it off of school property they don't have a leg to stand on.

if you are selling it off campus, the students could probably buy it more cheaply elsewhere, and the problem was more sneaking it in, besides, the sink water was cheaper.

Whenever we used Distilled water it was just in a bottle, nothing fancy, I'm sure you could get that in easy enough.

Almost every post secondary institution has a filtration system that can convert tap water to distilled
