From this post, more specifically, the below

A person taking on qualities they would not otherwise possess as a form of "mask" when performing.

Definition of CHARACTER

A fictional entity."

So we got a problem, Luminous Being falls under BOTH, if you've ever played a game of Dungeons and Dragons, one person is the Dungeon Master... or by lore standards, the Luminous Being, thus, making it a Stage persona shared by however many DMs have ever DM'd.

But the Luminous Being has also done minor things in DnD, making this an interesting case becuase it's both a fictional character and Stage Persona.

Despite me bringing it up in that thread, actually looking at the case raises an interesting question with interesting discussion to be had, because this feels like the grey line middle ground and I want to hear people's thoughts on it.

On a scale of 1-10, how much was this meant to spite Bambu?

Disgaree though, I think the stage persona stuff is stupid as hell. It doesn't even apply here, as the Luminous Being isn't a specific individual; It's just the amalgamation of every DM who has ever touched the game and ever will, making it more like a James Bond situation than something like the thread you quoted (which is literally "Logan Paul as played by Logan Paul and ONLY Logan Paul").

A 1 once i actually started reading funnily enough, I just want interesting discussion

By definition thats a bunch of stage personas in one though, and that's what I'm on about

Derailing but it turned to a full WWE deletion and it's got interesting arguments

Cute. Closing.
