To conquer death, you only have to die.
It was a subject I found myself wondering about, should genetic disorders be used in a roleplay, and should you use only negative disorders, or can you use positive ones? (If they exist...)
Some negative disorders, like Autism and Down Syndrome could be used. (correctly!) Or Marfan syndrome, which causes abnormal tallness, coupled with ligament and heart problems. Another one comes to mind, I think it’s Osteopetrosis, which makes your bones super dense. I read one source (that I can’t find, take it with a grain of salt) that this disorder makes your very resistant to breaking bones. But on the downside, you can’t swim and you’ll have autoimmune problems.
Should you use genetic disorders in your RP, or is there a risk that you’re just ‘begging for attention’?
