You should do 3, 6, 9, and 12.

These typing quirks, I don't understand what most of them are supposed to mean. Like, I get that Javelin draws little Javelins in his text, but what about the rest of you?

Well, I just thought of random things. But what I'm trying to figure out now is in my quirk something related to my Land, Land of Terror and Rebirth.

I don't know what I would do with that.

And if anyone's wondering about the handle, I always imagined this guy as a guy who has to do lots of Auspitizing. (And a guy who doesn't necessarily like it)

W3LL, IT'S JUST THAT 3ACH CANONICAL TROLL HAS A "TH3M3" THAT TH3Y CONFORM TO, AND TH3IR TYPIN9 QUIRKS FIT THAT TH3M3... AS FAR AS I CAN T3LL, YOUR TH3M3 12 CLOCKS, SO TH12 S33M3D LIK3 A LO9ICAL ID3A FOR A QUIRK TO M3.

You know, that's actually a better idea.

So based on what you said, this is the key:

3=E
6=?
9=G
12=?

In terms of a lusus, mine would be a large sea-donkey.

Yes.

The slashes are removed, so new alphabet:

A6CD3F9HIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ

AND 12 = Is, is, iz, Iz

I was thinking six would be b and twelve would be is, ls, iz or lz. Twelve gets more letters because a two letter string is going to be rarer than a one letter string. Three is still kind of over-represented in this system, since e is such a common letter, but you can't have everything I guess.

Ok, I get it.

It wouldn't really matter if 3 would be too overused. But what you said is a smarter idea for my quirk.

And 12 is also a good idea since it's a 2-letter string, which you said above would be rarer, and I agree. It would also be unique, since I don't think anyone thought of that. So, I think I'm going to change it to yours.

I think Javelin will allow it since it will make more sense to my character.

So Javelin, new quirk. Shorter and unique, thanks to 2257:

3=E
6=B
9=G
12=is, Is, iz, Iz

Slashes removed, but keep the O as *

Nonsense, my logic is flawless.
