Q: Mind transfer into the body of ape-like aliens

CassfrankDoing a deep dive into unsolved "story identification" questions on another forum, I came across two different people seeking this book about 10 years ago - neither got an answer. I have not been able to figure it out and thought I'd see if the brain trust here can give it a shot. The novel or no...

Q: Books where gems fall from the sky and are used to focus magic

Mark RossI read these books long ago and don’t remember the titles. Set in a fantasy world where an orphan boy is found by elves that live in a forest near a river. Everyday he has to put stones in the water and wrong them when wine comes out for the elves. Gems fall from the sky and the elves collect the...

Q: If The Father is required to get into Mortis, does that mean that the New Jedi Order’s quest for Mortis is doomed?

Blue Skin and Glowing Red EyesIn the Clones Wars Episode “Ghosts of Mortis”, Obi-Wan Kenobi asks The Father that if they were not meant to interfere, then why did The Father bring them to Mortis? That seems to imply (at least to me) that The Father is required to let anyone enter Mortis. Especially since Rex and an entire Ven...

Q: How fast does bacta heal cuts and minor injuries?

AdamI remember that bacta was applied to the Mandalorian by IG-74 and he seemed healed almost instantly. Also in Star Wars Resistance; Katz applied bacta to a weak alien and he seemed good to go. My question is; how fast does bacta work on superficial cuts? Is it like Star Trek’s dermal regenerator? ...

Q: Dystopian novel where you're given a number corresponding to your career

teeI read this probably in middle school, around 2012, but I'm sure the year isn't reliable enough to go off of and it is probably older. I can't recall if it was in-person or if this was a random book I stumbled upon on the Nook. It was a dystopian book where society revolved around taking a test a...

Q: (Online?) short story inspired by those "choose a special power" CYOAs

Sam KarasIt may have been on a blog, as a riff on those dime-a-dozen choose-your-own-adventure images shared on social media. There were some people (eight I think), each of whom chose a special power, I think though drinking a potion (or was it touching a stone?). I distinctly remember Red was infinitely...

Q: Why weren't IG-series droids used for war?

Twilight SparkleThe IG-11 droid on the Mandalorian was designed to be an incredibly efficient warrior able to take on the most dangerous of bounties. It has overwhelming damage output because its swiveling lenses and body allow it to independently aim two blasters to rapidly unleash a torrent of accurate gunfire...

Q: Help finding a subterranean cartoon

A Sci-fi GuySo, there was this cartoon I watched when I was a kid (watched around 2008's - 2015's), and I cannot remember its name. All I can remember about this cartoon is that the main character followed in his dad's footsteps to go to this underground world accompanied by a (I think) monster pet of some s...

Q: Short story about government agents shadowing a man in an alien's dream

VedooI'm looking for a short story, possibly from the early 1960s. It's about government agents shadowing an ordinary man to keep him out of harm's way at all costs. Evidently, this one man is the product of a sleeping entity's dream, and if the man were to come to harm, then reality would cease to ex...

Q: '70s/'80s young adult supernatural horror novel set in the real world where sculpted goblin models come to life

JoshI have a vague memory of a young adult supernatural horror novel from the '70s or '80s in which a late high school/early college-aged male is a sculptor/toymaker and three of his creations, a trio of goblin-esque brothers, come to life and engage in mayhem. It just occurred to me that their names...
