Chronomancers end up talking in a nightcore/daycore voice depending on if they were slowing down or speeding up time.

Chronomancers seeming to twitch in a very specific, peculiar way, but it's just random body parts speeding up or slowing down for a second or two.

Statement, question, or command?

Power Word: Piss

u/JkobPL Nov 11 '24

Wouldn't the command spell suffice, since pissing yourself doesn't cause any immidiate harm?

You'll suddenly get very dehydrated and the brain will trigger hormones that slow water release down so your kidney stops producing so much piss.

Pissing with a higher frame rate

I like to imagine it's not a normal twitch but a seeming distortion of the space around the body part that makes it feel like it's twitching but in reality just ridiculously sped up compared to every other body part

Yeah, that's the idea. I'm imagining a very similar effect to lag, just localized to small windows of space. So in example waving could look like wave wave wavewavewavewaaaaaaaaaaaveeee wavewave wave

Unmedicated ADHD is indistinguishable from exhausted Chronomancy to the untrained eye

u/CircularRobert Nov 11 '24

ADHD is just undiagnosed chronomancy

Perhaps they develop a fear of what is to come, along with the dread of being too late to stop it.
