Funny, mine to! My whole family's really foul mouthed. My protagonist is from a very militaristic society, and their word for "coward"'s a major obscenity, used as an expletive as well as an insult.

the "chosen one" trope isn't my favorite, and usually I'm in it for the character drama and the politics. Since I'm a political science major, and my expertise is on the Middle East, ethnic and religious politics is something that fascinates me.
