    I find your story very intereting and violent. I believe you're attempting to capture a true psychopathic personality. The psychopath is one of the most fascinating and distressing problems of human experience. For the most part, a psychopath never remains attached to anyone or anything. They live a "predatory" lifestyle. They feel little or no regret, and little or no remorse - except when they are caught. They need relationships, but see people as obstacles to overcome and be eliminated. If not, they see people in terms of how they can be used. They use people for stimulation, to build their self-esteem and they invariably value people in terms of their material value (money, property, etc..).

    A psychopath can have high verbal intelligence, but they typically lack "emotional intelligence". They can be expert in manipulating others by playing to their emotions. There is a shallow quality to the emotional aspect of their stories (i.e., how they felt, why they felt that way, or how others may have felt and why). The lack of emotional intelligence is the first good sign you may be dealing with a psychopath. A history of criminal behavior in which they do not seem to learn from their experience, but merely think about ways to not get caught is the second best sign.

    The following is a list of items based on the research of Robert Hare, Ph.D. which is derived from the "The Hare Psychopathy Checklist-Revised, .1991, Toronto: Multi-Health Systems." These are the most highly researched and recognized characteristics of psychopathic personality and behavior.

    glibness/superficial charm
    grandiose sense of self worth

    need for stimulation/prone to boredom
    pathological lying

    conning/manipulative
    lack of remorse or guilt

    shallow emotional response
    callous/lack of empathy

    parasitic lifestyle
    poor behavioral controls

    promiscuous sexual behavior
    early behavioral problems

    lack of realistic long term goals
    impulsivity

    irresponsibility
    failure to accept responsibility for their own actions

    many short term relationships
    juvenile delinquency

    revocation of conditional release
    criminal versatility

    There is no actual diagnosis of Psychopathy in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV), but it is a highly studied area. A psychopath is not the same as an antisocial personality. Antisocial personalities may or may not be psychopathic. The antisocial personality is primarily a problem involving a failure to respect the right of individuals, the law and rules of society. Psychopathy involves poor emotional intelligence, the lack of conscience, and an inability to feel attached to people except in terms of their value as a source of stimulation or new possessions. There are many expressions and forms of psychopathy. For instance, a sexual psychopath is one form of a psychopath.

    There is a significant amount of evidence to suggest that:

    there may be a genetic influence that creates a psychopathic personality
    adult psychopaths do not benefit from traditional counseling therapy and may in fact offend again and sooner because of it
    the brain of a psychopath may function and process information differently from those of non-psychopaths
    less intelligent psychopaths end up in prisons (highly intelligent psychopaths can run companies)
    psychopathic behavior may have once had a strong genetic "survival of the species" value
    psychopathic personalities are much more common than most of us realize

    oh wow! Thankyou so much sparklingwave! It really means a lot to me that you actually read the story! I thought it was a good chapter to how he..you know expresses himself. I wanted to let the reader get a feel for what he goes through everyday inside his mind. Like a way to understand him.

    It's so nice to know that kapranova has a believer in him! hoo hoo, he would be so pleased in you!

    Thanks for reading! It means a lot!

    @Teapot Domescam:

    yeah, i understand that you are a little too sensitive to my writing. If you cant read it then you dont have to, ha ha ha. But no worries! Next chapter is the prince, eh! ha ha ha.

    I think that kapranova is a little to anxious himself and you can just kind of relate to how he's feeling or something. Since you yourself go through anxiety attacks and he goes through the same...but very intense because he is slowly turning insane!

    but yeah, if you cant read it I understand. I dont want you to have a complete breakdown because of my writing. It's a very strange compliment...ha ha ha.

    I liked that scene a lot as well. I dont know why, i just felt it was a good way to show all their personalities into one.

    To be honest I thought this chapter was even a little too much for me as well.

    This chapter gave me anxiety, it was so violent. I mean, I like how he sounds when he writes, but I can't even handle Orochimaru! Kapranova is too much for my frail mind. I like how he kind of knows he's going insane though. Like, he's not completely oblivious to his actions. It makes the story more believable. Also, the part when the prince reasures the princess that there is no such thing as mind control. I could just imagine that perfectly being in a movie. I always like how you end the stories. It's a unique touch
