  1. Alright, too much youtube, it was mentioning poisonous gas. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnkwxKHVLeU Phosphine can be had by heating white phosphorus in aqueous solution of potash (potassium carbonate). While the pure is odorless, the technical grate can have a highly unpleasant order like rotting fish. Arsine can give off a slight garlic scent when it’s presence is above 0.5 ppm … it’ll destroy the kidneys (according to this video).
  2. By lucky coincidence, a genetic mutation makes them impervious to garlic-infused holy water, it’s now a health tonic. They also use silver bolts for toothpicks, after all, dental hygiene is important for those perfect pearly whites! Anyways, make sure to get *ALL* their hearts to thwart the regeneration process. Yeah, mostly harmless, like the earth.
  3. Aw, so it was the mirror that possessed her! Well, you remembered enough so we can have fun with it, as easily forgetting things isn’t a great thing either. Now, if only I could eradicate this plot bunny of having Mary Sue dating Gary Stu, I’m sure their children would be mostly harmless.
  4. The trouble with killing off the characters is you’ll need some more to replace the first party, do it too often and you’ll have red-shirt syndrome.
  5. Rainbow eyes? TBH, that’s not a super terrible idea, however, some description/justification would be needed. Suppose one could color the eyelashes, or eyebrows, or even the iris itself with concentrically colored rings. Iris/Whites could be done with a contact lens or a potion … in my potter fanfic, I’d simply chalk it up as a party gimmick from Fred & George. But yeah, the weapon thing would be understandable *IF* they’re military with years of special forces training, and is now a grandpa in a motorized wheelchair. Otherwise, less...credible. Guess that’s the crux of the Mary Sue/Gary Stu thing, it produces a character which is less realistic, less relatable.
  6. “Twist the tropes” can be quite fun to do at times. Of course, @SirGeneralSir will need to decide if the adventurers live or die, and work from there.
