Fan Casting Smart People Play Chess

Role added by getwellsoonmina on April 17, 2025

Back to Top Make Suggestion
Description of Smart People Play Chess:

A common visual shorthand to indicate that a character is smart is to have them play chess, Go, or some similar game. After all, Sesquipedalian Loquacious dialog can disrupt pacing, and not everyone is a chalkboard-toting professor, but it's unobtrusively easy to insert a chessboard into a scene. The character doesn't even have to actually play it; simply lingering nearby with a concentrated gaze is enough to suggest deep thinking.
