/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

What do you think of these and others characters of Star Trek if they ever granted such artifact?

You can probably put a delay according to their birthdate to make an abortion. I'd be only troubled how a chain of deaths can cause a butterfly effect on the situation.

Also, if DN's effect is imminent, could it also prolong life by setting it decades after?

Series aren't liked for being smart, but it's interesting to explore these terms.

The rules of the death notes generally have time limits in the tens of days. They can only control+kill a person for 23 days, and the pre-filled death methods (such as how Light killed Raye Pember) are said in supplementary text to only work for 19 days.

I imagine that first clause would prevent any significant life altering shenanigans.

That's an interesting thing I didn't remember. Thanks.

I'd wonder how much of the rules are actually true and if Ryuk tested Light if he can break them. One of things he did is letting not-owner fill the names of the agents in the blank form and using torn pages. Although it isn't condemned, it's half-right. The not-owner wasn't contacted by the God of Death and their code seems to be inclining that, as using one of such devices is basically a deal with the devil. I wonder if it can be pushed further.
