From A Helpless POV

[CrazyCapnMorgan]

So I got to reading a thread about mages and "God mode" and it just got me to thinking...

What if you were a bird or some other helpless creature/animal/human-with-no-powers and you bore witness to a spectacle such as a mage about to unleash arcane destruction? Or an armor clad Warrior about to trample his opponents underneath his might? Or a dragon loosing his elemental breath upon the battlefield?

Would you, as a bird perhaps, go "SQUUUAK THIS" and then fly away rapidly? Or as a ferret hoping your little natural home doesn't get completely renovated by a marauding giant? Maybe a small fawn looking from just outside the forest just frozen in place from the awe of such a thing?

What would you do in this kind of situation, if you were completely and utterly helpless?

I'd probably do what most birds do before giant disasters. Run fly for my life.

Run as fast and as far as possible, then probably come back in a couple of days. Depends how bitching the event is, if it's something like a tidal wave or nuclear explosion then I'd get somewhere high and watch the end of it all.

Well, if Amnesia: The Dark Descent is any indicator, probably hide in a dark corner, weeping to myself while trying to stay quiet enough that I'm not spotted. And then run because my life depends on it; And possibly shut a door in my face instead of behind me, thus confirming my inevitable demise.
