Also known as the Obi-Wan meme, though hopefully with less premature death.

The Mentorship Meme
I was going to have a picture here but they were all kind of...generic. You know, the older, presumably wiser figure with the naive young student.

According to wikipedia, a mentorship is...

Mentorship is a personal developmental relationship in which a more experienced or more knowledgeable person helps to guide a less experienced or less knowledgeable person. However, true mentoring is more than just answering occasional questions or providing ad hoc help. It is about an ongoing relationship of learning, dialog, and challenge.

The person in receipt of mentorship may be referred to as a protégé (male), a protégée (female), an apprentice or, in recent years, a mentee.

And knowledge is power.

• Make a comment. Your character is now a mentor. Have fun.


• In your top level comment post a few things your character would be...theoretically...or not...qualified to mentor in. Let's say...three? Three's a good number. Your mileage may vary so if you want to just post one? Go for it, bro, the world is your oyster, go seek your pearl.
  
  But here's my thought. You could have one intangible personal quality such as leadership, bravery, hard work, or debauchery. You could have one practical skill your character actually knows, a specialty that they've spent time working on. And you could have one completely random ass thing that they don't really know that much about but somehow ended up mentoring in because the original mentor got drunk or something.


• Mentees! Find a mentor! Queue up and request valuable life lessons...maybe? Ask for one, for two, or maybe all three. Start at whatever stage of this mentorship you want. If you have a setting in mind, go for that setting. If you don't, you're meeting in the closest equivalent to Starbucks you have in whatever world your characters come from.


• And live long and prosper.

How about one who will teach her how to kick ass better?

Alright, so first thing's first, we need to go in, kill at least fifty demons, beat down one of the Lords of Hell and then retrieve Solomon's Key. Any questions?

....Why? What does this key thing do anyway? And why should I care about it?

[idkworldruler]

It opens Solomon's mines, which is a gateway to hell. So we find the key, all of their bases are belong to us, we close Hell's connection to Earth and make a nice profit in the process. Easy Friday if you ask me.

[detoxes]

Sounds easy to you.

Well yeah, I can't die...theoretically. Anyway, question time. What do you think would be the best approach? Launch a two-man assault on the front? Or assassinate the guards from a distance, then sneak in?
