Nothing scares me more than trickster gods/spirits. I'm not beating anyone on brute force, all I've got on my side is courage, shamelessness and a healthy dose of recklessness to keep things spicy. Going against normal foes, no matter how strong they are, is dangerous, but I can take them as long as I know them well, play to their ego, their vanity, etc. But these chaotic neutral mfs?? Nothing. I don’t know why they are doing the things they're doing. They don’t have reason or motives that I can try to understand or manipulate. They are terrible foes but even worse allies because you can’t predict their actions. Who's to say they won’t grow bored of you and decide to screw you over instead of helping? Absolutely terrifying, I wouldn’t sleep at night
