Kansa, a suggestion, just stick to rot as in biological rot, not just decay in general. for instance plastics first and foremost just break down into smaller and smaller pieces - it stays plastic nonetheless, until sunlight and some really aggressive stuff actually takes it apart. while you could say yes, that is decay, note how that is a *lot* slower than actual biological stuff decaying. you might very well say yes, she rots plastic too, however much much slower, so she has to throw out new clothes after a week or so before they actually fall apart.

That is a good idea, it makes sense that plastic would decay a lot slower than other materials. Though as you suggest it might be best to just stick to rot rather than decay in general, I'm not really sure where she would get the money to buy new clothes if they were constantly decaying on her.

I'd probably alter your power to magically-targeted decay of living organics, period. Or hell, change it to involuntary transmutation.
How about people she touches rot and die?
Rot like, for example, zombies.

I do want to make it work on food though and things like that.

Then why not combine the rotting things thing and the magically targeted thing?

Because I kinda want to make it a curse rather than a boon

People, plants, things that would/should rot of left outside in the weather long enough.

Yeah I'll change it to rot rather than decay in general this should exclude plastic and allow her to actually wear clothes.

Who needs character development when you have dreams about French maid outfits and the resulting awkward conversations?

picture, an organic compound by your definition. which is simply wrong. if you cared to check the wikipedia article for more than the first few lines, you'll see that it also mentions that "the distinction is ...arbitrary". in actual practise, it's a question of structure and reactivity much more complex than "does it contain carbon". anyone who declares malachite to be an organic compound will quickly be laughed at. please do not quote wikipedia as a fact against common sense. no matter the carbon content, steel doesn't share any similarity with actual organic compounds


Kansa, a suggestion, just stick to rot as in biological rot, not just decay in general. for instance plastics first and foremost just break down into smaller and smaller pieces - it stays plastic nonetheless, until sunlight and some really aggressive stuff actually takes it apart. while you could say yes, that is decay, note how that is a *lot* slower than actual biological stuff decaying. you might very well say yes, she rots plastic too, however much much slower, so she has to throw out new clothes after a week or so before they actually fall apart.

:/ Dude, I didn't quote wikipedia.

I quoted a freaking dictionary.

And if you want something more authoritative?

Here's merriam-webster...

(1) :  of, relating to, or containing carbon compounds (2) :  relating to, being, or dealt with by a branch of chemistry concerned with the carbon compounds of living beings and most other carbon compounds

Oxford...

Chemistry: of, relating to, or denoting compounds containing carbon (other than simple binary compounds and salts)...

and Cambridge.

› biology, chemistry Organic also means relating to, or belonging to a group of substances containing the chemical element carbon.

so, tl;dr, every single authority on the fucking english language disagrees with you.

Yes, it USED To denote living things, however every single authority on chemistry has reestablished the definition so it's not so damn soft and actually denotes a class of things.

Also, this is now mostly unrelated to Kansa and I agree with her changing the power. Specifying that it has to be biological in origin would also work, while keeping the original intent.

Pretty sure the intent Kansa had was prooobably living/life-related.

Also, nice job posting RIGHT after the person in question goes to sleep. :I

((wait so picknic is over, damn))
I was just running the past and the present in parallel.

Power: Anything that is able to rot that comes in contact with Alice's skin begins to do so at a rapid rate
Powers are typically more...active than this.
And if you were trying to dissuade Kyle...condoms and healing spells. Or just stopping before intercourse.
And, um, clothes can rot.

Of course, you COULD use the boring definition, but I prefer that one, or reword it to 'any BIOLOGICAL substance' or something like that, as that requires it have at one point been alive.
...which includes anything made from petroleum.
Or coal/natural gas/etc, but who makes anything from those?

I do want to make it work on food though and things like that.
Wouldn't she starve?

well then she used the wrong word :P and that's fine, I just don't like being called an idiot when I'm right and can prove it definitively.
Preach it, brother!

Non-rottable gloves.
Plus I think that her mouth counts as not skin because it's her mouth.
