What can change the nature of a man?

Being reincarnated over and over with no recollection of their past, I would assume.

Fucking Ravel would definitely change the nature of any man.

People don't change. You can try to change, and you can pretend to be the person you wanted to change into, and in effect you will be no different than if you had changed, except that it will require constant unceasing effort on your behalf to maintain your pretensions, and the slightest lapse will send you sliding immediately back to who you were before. Someone who is "naturally" that person maintains their behaviour without effort - someone who changes into that person will never do anything more than pretend, and the pretension will be constant and demanding.

It's why anti-suicide activists kill themselves out of the blue 30 years after they "beat" it. They never beat it. It was hounding them for the entire time, and all they ever did was pretend. It's why fat people who lose weight get fat again. It's why criminals reoffend despite their best intentions. Plus, you have so little control over your upbringing that you have practically zero input into what your "natural" state is going to be. You might as well be born that way for all you can change it. In this sense, some people are simply born to be miserable. Some people are born broken and they will never be mended.

People will never be more than who they were born to be.

Nothing. The villain was right. You are what you are.

You imagined upon rereading your post that what you wrote sounds profound as hell, but in reality it's maximum cringe

Horniness.

If you cut out everything between the first and last sentences it kind of makes sense

There's not nature of a man, just nature, and man is part of nature.

Well amnesia changed The Nameless Ones nature a couple of times so I guess that.

You, Ravel, can change the nature of a man.

I bet TNO wanted to forget the experience which prompted him to get amnesia in the first place

It's also still incredibly wrong. People are fluid as hell. Certain aspects are pronounced, and reinforced constantly, but nothing about a person is forever.

That's not really true, I used to be extremely tired and lazy as a kid (and into my teens iirc) but I decided that I was just going to fucking do things that I needed to do without thinking, as if I were a robot or something. I have way more energy and motivation to do stuff now without having to constantly force it. I just developed a new habit to overwrite the old ones.

People grow up, their priorities and desires shift. More time to think coupled with life experience shifts perspectives. Political beliefs, existential meaning, morality, life goals, all of this stuff shifts over the course of a life. Your problem is that you think of "change" as giving up smoking, or going on a diet. You're viewing the world through an extremely narrow perspective, but it's alright. You have the capacity to change it.

Yeah that's an interesting thought, maybe the reason people fail to break their habits so often is because their goals are too narrow. They either fall back into a habit because their overall routine is still the same (so the framework of the bad habit is still there) or it's just not difficult and transformative enough to cause a large change in your patterns of behavior.

>What can change the nature of a man?
Sex change?
In all seriousness though: I always thought that given the metaphysics that Planescape seems to be hammering down, the real answer should always be:
BELIEF
The game is CHOKE full of stories about how belief is what actually forms reality. That Darkon talks about his entire civilization crumbled when people started doubting it.
In one of your high-int flashback, you actually had convinced a person that he does not exist and HE LITERALLY DISAPPEARED once.

The entire reality of Planescape seems to be build on priority of belief over existence itself. So naturally, the correct answer should be: Belief.

This is hillarious, but wrong.
People grow. They change. Not always for better, and generally they have a LOT less control over their growth than they would like, but it's not true that all people remain the same. Personality changes.

Ignus was such a dissapointing character. Such a cool premise, such a poor execution.

If you aren't changing as a person, that just means you're not developing. It can be true, but only if you let it be.

This is only tangentially related, but:
Why is the board so insanely slow now?

90% of all threads have less then 10 replies, and everything is slow as fuck. What is this shit? Did the "people don't really listen to each other" got so bad that people just keep making new threads instead of replying to existing?

Castration done before puberty.

I was so excited to free him. Thought he would have some interesting dialogues, but no. Still based.
