Narrative Structures

Mjollniranism views narrative structures as blueprints for manipulating human communication through neural linguistic programming. Practitioners (Mjollnirians do not do such malicious activities) employ intricate storytelling techniques to exploit cognitive biases and drive desired outcomes. By crafting narratives that resonate with deep-seated desires and fears, they guide individuals toward predetermined responses. The approach involves dark psychology, linguistic programming, and strategic storytelling to exert covert influence. Villains seek control through linguistic cues and psychological anchors, ensuring the message is internalized. However, orchestrating these operations successfully requires rare intellectual caliber, often resulting in anticlimactic outcomes.
Imagine a scenario, using narrative structures, where a charismatic cult leader crafts a compelling narrative around salvation and enlightenment, using a devoted follower as a mouthpiece to convey persuasive messages to potential recruits. Through careful scripting and psychological manipulation, the leader influences the emotions, beliefs, and behaviors of the audience, steering them towards submission and unwavering loyalty.

Narrative Framework Syndrome

A psychological condition where someone compulsively interprets their life through the lens of literary tropes and storytelling conventions, combined with an obsessive need to fill any gaps in their understanding with elaborate theories that fit these narrative patterns. Common symptoms include categorizing people as character archetypes, expecting plot twists, and creating complex explanations for simple events to avoid "plot holes" in their personal story.
1. "Dude, my roommate has such bad Narrative Framework Syndrome. When our neighbor got a new cat, he spent three hours explaining how it must be a magical familiar sent to watch us because 'that's how these story arcs usually start.'"

2. "My sister's NFS is acting up again. She's convinced her new coworker must be a secret heir to a fortune because 'why else would such an important character be introduced this late in the season?'"
