#fanmade deck

[villabella12]

@arcvmonth Day 28 Extra Prompt: Doodlebook - Uh Uh Uh!

This isn't basically a fanmade card but instead a fanmade deck, usually for my ocs as a follow-up for Day 28. Look Im not the best at creating a deck archetype but here's the concept of how they work (won't be listing the entire names of each monsters)

Prym Rose (Raya's Deck)

The Prym Rose Archetype are a series of monsters which heavily focuses on quickly Ritual Summoning Prym Rose Celestial Dragon (Raya's Ace) and other Ritual Monsters, either tributing monsters from her or her opponent's field, banishing an Extra Deck monster, or simply banishing a monster from the graveyard. The entire deck is a bit anti-pendulum since half of the monsters, including Prym Rose Celestial Dragon, negates all pendulum effects and instead of sending them to the Extra Deck, it sends them instead to graveyard (excepts Zarc's Deck)

There are certain monsters that allows Ritual Summoning just by tributing them and/or monsters in the field whose level equals or exceeds said Ritual Monster, although it strictly won't use an Ritual Monster as a material

There is one specifc weakness however, and that all can be defeated using the effects or doing battle damage by the Fusion, XYZ, and/or Synchro monsters, but certain spells and/or traps will protect it

Lore: The Prym Rose, or Prymnaris, are a huge King-Arthurian-Style Civilization that are protected underneath the kingdom's main source, The Prymnarite Crystal, serving as a protection barrier from enemies outside the Kingdom's walls. The princess, Joan (Prym Rose Princess Paladdin), doesn't take her position too seriously and instead went on to become the squire of the General Knight, Lance (Prym Rose Advance Nobleman), only to become 5 steps ahead of him and goes into wild misadventures with her friends.

TwinNight Symphonia X (Maria's Deck)

The TwinNight Symphonia X is a musician-themed deck that heavily revolves around Special Summoning level 5 or higher monsters from the deck, hand, or graveyard in order to perform a XYZ summoning, mainly Ibong Adarna The Divine Phoenix of Light (Maria's Ace) by using 3 Level 7 Winged-Beast type monsters and using their effect to return as many cards as possible to the opponents hand and gaining 200x ATK for how many cards the opponent have on their hand. The deck doesn't consist any Rank-Up Spells but instead having to pay LP in order to perform a Rank-Up XYZ Evolution either from the field, discarding a card from hand, or banishing said monster from the Graveyard.

Eris Adarna The Dark Phoenix of Corruption is a difficult card to summon to the field as it requires 4 XYZ materials from the graveyard with the same level (Level 7) in order to perform "Phantom XYZ Summon" though it is also possible using a Spell or Trap.

It's impossible to determine what its weakness is, but it's possible that "Speedroid", "Ancient Gear", "Supreme King", and "Superheavy Samurai's" are its weaknesses but it has yet to be comfirmed

Lore: The TwinNight Symphonia X are a mega-band that tours around the world through their indescribable music. Often paired with the Melodious, Performapals, Perfomages, and Abyss Actors, the band is phenomenal with their perfomances, giving the audiences the show of a lifetime with their melodies.

Idea for a fanmade Leitner inspired by a different post I just saw:

Leitner that's a "Where's Waldo" book (no, not "Where's Wally", its a US originated Leitner, and if you complain out loud about it not being "Where's Wally" before reading it fucking explodes your head the second you open it) where as soon as you spot Waldo in the first page, in each subsequent page he gets more and more obvious to spot as he gets closer and closer to the viewer. His usual smile starts flattening out the closer he gets until his face is dead center, taking up a majority of the page with a blank look on his face staring directly into your eyes and you know for a fact that he's looking at you and actually seeing you.

Then you start noticing Waldo in different books that are definitely not copies of "Where's Waldo". And in the background of TV shows. And Movies. And then in real life crowds. And he's always getting closer. Always with that blank, haunted stare from the last page of the original Leitner.

And then, fuck, idk, he kills you or something???

Oh no, waitwaitwait, you end up as one of the people in the crowd in the "Where's Waldo" Leitner, as Waldo gets closer to the viewer the people in the crowd around him start looking more and more openly horrified and outright distressed to the point of visibly sobbing and screaming and those are the people who've read the book before and got McLeitnered™

Idk man it's almost 1 am here, take my podcast brain worms

#tma #the magnus archives #leitners tma #leitner books #fan leitner #fanmade leitner #guess those tags havent ever been used #everyone needs to start coming up with more ideas for fucked up books for funsies cmon guys play with me in the space #an anatomy textbook that makes real organs show up when you read passages about them but theyre always fucked up somehow #a copy of Charlotte's Web where she gaslights Wilbur and you start getting messages written in spider webs in your house after you read it #a tarot deck manual where all the cards are death that makes you also die idfk man I'm spitballing here #tma podcast

the legends of localizations undertale manual mentioning gaster at all is so scary after years and years of being absent or even removed from official content....

#the removed example is from the deltarune chapter 1 vinyl cover art #im not counting the tarot deck because that had been originally fanmade... #logs #undertale #utdr #to be clear i don't have a copy nor have i looked online yet my friend got it so im receiving updates there. very exciting + frightening! #^__^ #there's eight whole pages dedicated to temmies...

The Sims 4 Amber House Pack - PUBLIC RELEASE!

CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE PATREON PAGE!

Oh...my...GOD!!! I can't believe this is actually happening....

After 3 years of hard work, I am here to welcome everyone to:

The Sims 4 Amber House Pack!

It's time to create your own mission style dream house, with this collection of 345 brand new and hella cool build/buy mode items, inspired by Dontnod's "Life is Strange: Before the Storm" game.

EARLY ACCESS: You can get the pack right now, on my PATREON on the 3-5$ tiers, or wait for the 12th of May for the public release!

Please read EVERYTHING included in the post as it contains useful information about the pack!

DISCLAIMER: Simsi45 or The Sims 4 Amber House Pack is NOT affiliated or associated with Electronic Arts, Square Enix, Deck Nine or Dontnod in ANY way. This is a purely fanmade pack made by me, a fan of both games that wanted to get the best of both worlds.

FEATURES:

 345 new items (including sofas, tables, decor, windows, doors and much much more!)

 Search for "amberhouse", "lis", "simsi45" to find most of the items in the build/buy catalog.

 Custom original names and descriptions. (the best I could come up with :P)

 Tons of custom recolors (based on original textures) to mix and match items more easily.

 Heavy modification on original meshes and textures, including english text turned into simlish.

 Everything has been playtested thoroughly.

 Included are a couple of easter egg items from The Sims 2 that I thought fit the theme well.

New lot I made showcased in the trailer and pics (found in the gallery under my tag @simsi45_mods) a recreation of Rachel Amber's house.

LOT INSTALLATION:

Included in the pack is the lot recreation of the Amber House that's featured in the pictures and videos.

You can get the lot by:

Using the gallery. Make a search under my EA id: @simsi45_mods and download the lot as usual. I've included customized pictures to identify my own lot more easily. Make sure you have the "enable custom content" tag ENABLED for the lot to show up in the results.

If you have difficulties using the gallery you can download the lot tray files from the bottom of the post, and move them inside your own tray folder. This can be found in your documents/electronic arts/the sims 4/ tray folder. This way you can install the lot without the need of the gallery.

NOTES:

~ The pack is in an EARLY-ACCESS STATE! I have dedicated a lot of time to test everything but I'm a team of just a single person. If you find any issues please let me know so I can take a look.

~ Because of the amount of items the size of the pack is quite big. I tried my best to make everything as compact as possible with the final size being 1.5 GB of required free space. 

~ The majority of the meshes and textures of these items are ripped straight from the LIS: Before the Storm game, and then each individual item (both mesh and textures) has been heavily modified and edited to fit and function properly within the Sims 4 game's engine. That's why some items will look identical to the original game, some look somewhat different, and some are brand new meshes I made using the original items.

~ Some of the original ripped meshes' poly counts were WAY too high so I had to lower the polygons so The Sims 4 wouldn't explode when filling a lot with them. I lowered the polygons and edited most of the items as much as possible without compromising their original look too much. In other words I tried to find the best balance between looks and performance and after lots of testing on my moderate PC system, I can confirm the game runs super smoothly on my end. 

BACKSTORY ABOUT THE PACK (no spoilers):

This pack started with an idea I got back in 2017 when I first played Life Is Strange Before The Storm. When visiting the Amber house, I immediately fell in love with it as I am huge fan of the craftsman architectural style, it's literally all I'd want my dream house to be. The art team has done an incredible job on it, and as I personally find the art style of the Life is Strange series and The Sims 4 to fit very well with each other, I wanted to make these assets available for The Sims 4. Of course back then this all seemed impossible, however a few years later in 2020 during quarantine I revisited the idea as it had been stuck on my wishlist ever since.

To make a long story short, this project has been in the works for about 3 years now, and after a lot of hard work, head scratching and quite a few sleepless nights I managed to overcome all the obstacles I came across (which were a lot mind you) and I'm honestly hoping you'll be as pleased with the results as I am. Seriously this exceeded my expectations as it started as a small little pack for my personal use, to what I'd consider an expansion pack's (or even more) worth of build/buy content.

INSTALLATION:

Due to the size of the pack I had to split it up into multiple parts. You will need a .RAR extractor unpack it. More specifically:

1 -> Download ALL 6 parts of the pack and put them ALL in the same folder. 2 -> Right click the 1st part .RAR file named "Simsi45 - The Sims 4 Amber House Pack.part1" and click "Extract Here"   3 -> Once that's finished a package file will appear, this is the entire pack and you can now move that into The Sims 4/Mods. Simple as that!

CREDITS & THANKS:

~Dontnod, Square Enix, Deck Nine for the original meshes & textures ripped from Life is Strange: Before the Storm that were used to create most of the items.

~EA for some meshes & textures used to convert some items from The Sims 2.

Special thank you to all the patreon members that stuck with me throughout me developing the pack. Although not many I really appreciate every single one of you for the support you've given me and for sticking around!

WELCOME TO THE PART 2 OF MY HUSK HEADCANONS (Some of this include huskerdust btw)

This may have bad grammar srry

So he leaves hair EVERYWHERE, sofas, chairs, beds, he can go on vacation to the other side of hell and there will still be hair everywhere. It took a while for the others to get acustomed to that. (Angel helps him to brush his hair out sometimes apparently it's relaxing for him)

He purrs when he is held I just know it (why did I add this idk)

Back when he was an overlord he had an "special" deck of cards made specially for him. They worked both as a weapon and just to play. He still hs them but he only uses them on special games (and to fight like on the fight with the sharks on ep4)

He walks slightly curved cause of lazyness but also cause even thou they're not there he can slightly feel the weight of alastors chain on his back and neck (he has HORRIBLE neck problems)

He likes to dance, and he's a very good dancer. (doesn't show it much though)

Either he passes out at the bar, gets dragged (conscious or not) all the way to his room or he's sober enought to go there by himself.

He sleeps with his clothes on, because pijamas are a waste of time. When he's exited (like happy) his wings flap and his ears twich a bit he tries his best to controll it.

Husk doesn't want to accept it but he's VERY attached to the hh gang.

He never let's niffty into his room, thta's why it's dirtier that a dumpster in there.

He stopped taking care of himself after alastor got his soul, he tought it was no use, he didn't have someone to impress now, nor was he powerful so there was no use on taking care of the mysery of a man he became.

He started to take care of himself after he entered the HH, charlie asked him nicely since she was worried abut him but also cause of his job, after he said he didn't care Vaggie almost put her spear throu his skull.

He wants to help angel escape his deal with Val, because if he can't maybe he can help Angel be free and live the life he deserves.

Angel asked him to take care of fat nuggets and he did (reluctantly) then charlie asked him to take care of Kee Kee for a bit, then sir pentious asked to watch over his minions for a few minutes and now he became the Hazbin Hotel's personal babysitter (Against his will)

He got high ones by some weed brownies Angel baked and tried to attack Sir Pentious (This one is inspired by a fanfic https://archiveofourown.org/works/53614033/chapters/135717379 )

Husk reminds me of "Look's who's inside again" by Bo Burham (Mostly because of the half-cannon half-fanmade backstory I have for him if you wanna hear it let me know)

OK THAT'S IT PEOPLE CAUSE I RAN OUT OF IDEAS

I may do a part 3 but idk

OK BYEEEEEEEEE

Mushy... prepare for storytime...

So, I got a habit of just enjoying fanmade content about something before I go find the source. Kinda like testing the waters before diving in. And I FINALLY got around to watching the pilot episode of the Amazing Digital Circus and I spent the whole time waiting for Able to pop out.

I was literally looking in the backgrounds as maybe he was more of a work behind-the-scene guy or maybe a cool easter egg you picked up and ran away with. There was the queen chess piece and the moon and the blank mannequins, so I had my eyes peeled for that deck of cards. There was so much packed in that episode that I watched it twice. Couldn't find him.

And I'm here thinking: But people were drawing him. Let me look this up.

Then I looked at your tags and figured out ABLE IS YOUR OC!!!!!! Why does he fit in the universe so well!?! You out here making me play Where's Waldo with your OC!?

Mushy... I am very angy with you... X'''D

HAHAHAHAHAAA!!! LETS GOOOO!! First it was Noondrop, AND NOW ABLE LETS GOOO!!!!

Making people think my OC is part of the original canon IS MY FAVORITE FUCKING HOBBY and its the BIGGEST COMPLIMENT YOU COULD EVER GIVE ME!! DJSJBFHEJAIWUEYWYWTTEYWVZBNXOPQJEGANNFTUUEEIWI LETS GOOO

Heheh,,, able blend in,, hehehe nicee hejehe im giggling in my little guy cave

Welcome to the show by the way Jahaira!! Aaa hehe i feel so complimented!

RSA Fanmade Dorms

Thought I should share a fleshed-out(ish) list of dorms that me, @chohouse , and @dizastermango made for Royal Sword Academy. Honesty thought that RSA should get more love (plus it was a lot of fun to make this, especially since I have some OCs that go to RSA). Also I made a Pinterest board for the dorms, the dorm uniforms, and their ceremonial robes.

The overall inspiration of these dorms were the supporting characters in the stories of the Big 7, but it’s the characters that were associated with the heroes. Now with that out of the way, here is the list!

- Iterspeculo: Spirit of Carpe Diem

Themed off of The Mad Hatter

Pronounced as “I-ter-speh-coo-loh”

Carpe Diem roughly translates to “Living in the Moment”

The complete opposite of Heartslabyul when it come to organization and tidiness

Basically an eyesore, and constant game of ‘Eye-Spy’

Dorm name was made with: ‘Speculo’ which is Latin for mirror, ‘Iter’ meaning journey, so it completely comes out to ‘Journey (through the) Looking Glass’ 

- Baoheart: Spirit of Mindfulness

 Themed off of Rafiki

Pronounced as “Bau-hart”

ALL DORM MEMBERS LIVE IN A GIANT BAOBAB TREEHOUSE! It’s pretty cool ngl

This dorm is SO chill and can be wise. They have a lot of relaxing activities like yoga and meditation sessions. Literally living that Hakuna Matata life 

Dorm name revolved around the tree that Rafiki lived in which is a Baobab tree, and the heart because it sounded better and more whimsical than tail or fang lmao

- Plimsoll: Spirit of Sharing

Themed off of Scuttle

Pronounced as “Plim-sl”

Nautical and sea port vibes with this dorm (ngl was hard to figure out, so I mixed it together)

Heavily community based! Everyone helps everyone out because why not? The more the merrier! 

Literally a silly headcanon, but the common room has a deep brown wood flooring to imitate a ship and someone made the joke of it looking like shit, so now everyone calls the common room the “Poop Deck”

Name came from the Plimsoll Line of a ship, which is a mark on the hull of a ship indicating how deep a cargo ship can travel safely to trade goods

- Sadjinn: Spirit of Friendship

Themed off of The Genie

Pronounced as “Sah-jin”

Kind of similar to Scarabia, but it has that overall “goodness” to it

Not as many parties, but still very much so community based

It’s a more creative dorm that leans more into enjoying what you have and making the most out of it with the people you have. Literally if Kalim was a dorm it would be this one.

Also, the Cave of Wonders is where the dorm resides, and it is surrounded by a beautiful oasis and small forest of sorts

Name came from: ‘Sadiq’ meaning friend in Arabic, and a Djinn (Jinn) is another name for the mythical creature of a genie (this is under the pretense of fiction and fantasy rather than the Arabic/Islamic religious aspect of Jinns) 

- Septierre: Spirit of Humility

Themed off of the Seven Dwarves

Pronounced as “Sep-tea-error”

Such a hardworking yet humble dorm. Like omg- this dorm is that meme that is like “It’s not much, but it’s honest work”

COTTAGECORE VIBES!!!

Literally all of the produce and materials for the school is from this dorm! The students in this dorm are basically all in agriculture and geology, it is wholesome and very simple living

Mostly flatlands with cottage dorm rooms/dorm housing. It’s cute ngl. A lot of orchards and mines and woodland creatures

Name came from: ‘Septem’ which is Latin for 7, and ‘Pierre’ roughly translates to ‘stone/rock’

- Fulgyros: Spirit of Growth

Themed off of Philoctetes (Phil)

Pronounced as “Fuhl-ger-ose”

Dorm of perseverance and growth (emotionally, physically, and mentally. Literally in every possible aspect)

Basically the gym bros/fraternity of the school lmao, but don’t worry, they’re usually himbos. Just want what’s best for everyone and will help achieve that goal

All Ancient Greece influences, kind of a mix between Mount Olympus and Phil’s home/training area. Ethereal and godly vibes with white and earth tones. One of the more pristine dorms, especially with their mostly white uniforms

Name comes from: ‘Fulger’ which is the Latin root word for ‘lightning’, the suffix ‘-ysos’ from Dionysus who Satyrs would be associated with (along with Pan), and ‘-os’ from mythos

- Rosasci: Spirit of Harmony

Themed off of The Three Fairies (Flora, Fauna, and Merrywheather)

Pronounced as “Roh-zeh-see"

Spirit comes from the three fairies working together to raise Aurora despite how chaotic it was. They worked in harmony together and were able to make things work. So that same vibe of responsibility and harmony of oneself and community is prominent in this dorm.

All roses imagery with no thorns. Thorns are a big nono in this dorm

Was another difficult dorm to figure out, but then again this whole school can be viewed as pretentious, so why not add in that overly sweet ‘goody-two-shoes’ aspect lol

However, this dorm is so pretty and very Fairycore with flowy and whimsical uniforms and decorations

Best way to describe the dorm vibe is the Moors in the first and second Maleficent movie

Name came from: ‘Rosaceae’ which is the botanical family name for roses. It’s a simple but pretty name.

- Bonus HCs

Snow White’s Wishing Well is the magical object(?) that sorts students into their dorms

The way it works is that you have to sing a tune or something into the well, and the well sings back to you what dorm you are sorted into. Note that the voice singing back is a collection of voices that are in perfect harmony. It’s creepy if you think about it because do those voices belong to anyone??? Who knows.

Also, students arrive to RSA in a brilliant, blinding white, pumpkin carriage drawn by horses, pegasi, unicorns, even comically large seahorses/dolphins, you name it! It’s magic- anything is possible.

Honestly think of the flying carriages in Sophia the First, and bam it’s that, but a white pumpkin! 

Everyone is alert and awake during their journey to the school, with various magical accommodations to make the trip as pleasant as possible. Hungry or thirsty? No worries, a menu with simple summoning spells fixes that. Bored? Don’t sweat- free wifi in the carriage AND a hidden movie screen to watch the latest block buster starring Vil Schoenheit  and Neige LeBlanche. It’s basically a first class seat on a magical airplane. Straight up comfort.

However, once you do arrive to the school and land, your luggage disappears (of course there is a notice before you land). Once you get your dorm and room assigned, your luggage will already be there waiting for you

Students are dropped off towards the back of the castle where staff greets the new students on the outskirts of a whimsical tree line. Upon crossing into the forest, students are magically dressed in their ceremonial robes and matching makeup . They all flood into a large whimsical pavilion full of seats (think of the one from Barbie and the 12 Dancing Princesses) that surrounds a very well known wishing well

After the ceremony, the headmaster opens portals to the Heart of the Castle where the main portals are.

RSA has a similar portal system to NRC, but the room is full of really pretty ports that fit the decorum of each dorm/school location. It’s located in the heart of the castle, which is easy access for the students and staff

That is basically all of the headcanons I had, and I hope it helps in any creativity process, or was enjoyable! Let me know if you want any more HCs or have any comments, questions, or concerns! It was a blast making this!

Also! If you want to use any of this for OCs or fanfics, please go ahead!! Just please link this post and like/reblog 🖤 I appreciate those who want to use this! Thank you!

About a month ago you made a comic of Dear💚 and Baby💙 reacting to a fan. I was wondering if the Flavor Four had fan-meets/ something similar.

The Flavor Four don't really do meet and greets.

Villains vary with their fan interaction with some greeting them with open arms (like Fairest) and others avoiding them at all costs because they get too weirded out (Hail-Raiser).

The Flavor Four aren't very public with appearances unless it's to battle the Beloveds or there's some serious threat so they can help keep the city in one piece (because Bitterbat refuses to let anyone destroy Decking City except for him). They're what some may refer to as "business only" villains where your chances of seeing them in the street outside of attacks are nearly zero.

The best fans of the Flavor Four can get, interaction wise, is if they are voicing their compliments in public and one of the Flavor Four are nearby to hear it while under their human disguises. Another way is word of mouth from one of the Beloveds, who sometimes will get little fanmade things of the Flavor Four. Of course, the fans don't know that the two teams are greatly interconnected and simply are gifting it to the Beloveds because some heroes are gifted little items of their villains (so long as they state they don't mind it)

I would say that Halite is the most fond of his fans but he loves the attention and praise he gets because he's a bit prideful.

Redhot is rather chill, appreciating whatever fans he has. He does enjoy hearing them debate with Dear fans over who would ultimately win in battles. I'd say Redhot vs Dear is the Decking City equivalent of "Who would win? Goku or Superman?"

Sourpuss...well Sourpuss is more into the "gifts of sweets and treats" aspects of having fans. They might get big sparkling eyes about having a large fan club but that's only because they are thinking of all the delicious food they might get.

Bitterbat is the most neutral about having fans. It's not that he doesn't care about them...well kinda. He is surprised he has them on the lowkey since he doesn't really view himself the same way humans do (he is learning many humans have been referring to him as a "big tiddied goth bf" and he is still learning what that means) so he really only cares about how they view him in relation to Sweetheart. If a fan states they think he and Sweetheart look cute together or they are supportive of his "attempts at winning her heart", he absolutely adores them.

But god forbid one of his fans say anything negative about Sweetheart and how mean she is for always "rejecting him" or even saying he deserves better.

I've beat inscryption but kaycees mod is beating my absolute ass! I cannot for the life of me beat it even once!! Give pro strats pls... (also I love your art so so much obviously but I also think it'd be fun to ask you about the game itself if that's ok!!! :,D)

ofc id be happy to talk about the game itself!! dont feel bad about losing to kmod its very hard on purpose because kaycee likes inflicting pain!

first of all, i learned a lot of lifesaving strats/tricks from this little fanmade kmod wiki! it gives pros/cons for each starter deck and goes into detail about how hand manipulation works and stuff, check it out for sure

that said the most important things to do are:

keep a small deck, especially try not to have more than one or two 1-blood cost cards or free cards

have a big damage card that can 1-hit KO leshy on the first turn (5 damage until you get the challenge that starts you off with 1 damage on your side, then this card should do 6 damage)

those rules probably arent as important when youre just starting and the challenges arent too bad, but eventually leshy is gonna pull a bifurcated turkey vulture on his first turn when you turn the heat up down the road so itd be wise to get into the rhythm early. im assuming you only have vanilla deck unlocked, so try buffing the wolf with bifurcated or at a good campfire

you want to keep your deck small so you can reliably pull your win card preferably on the first turn, when you have too much useless crap like pelts or extra 1-blood costs, theyre going to be pulled in your starting hand and you wont be able to do enough damage in time.

its wise to have at least two 1-Hit-KO win cards to prepare for the prospector since he wipes your board after phase one, and having a backup is valuable when you cant trim down your deck enough

try to avoid map nodes that give you cards, and try to aim for map nodes that will take away cards (or otherwise wont give you new ones). use the campfire to try and get rid of cards you dont want, try to fail cave challenges, dont buy pelts from trapper (buy his knife instead if you can), etc. if a campfire doesnt kill your card you can also exit to menu and re-enter the game to have it buff your preferred card instead lol. and if youre forced to pick a cost card, go with 3-blood cost. if youre forced to pick a family card, try to get one that you can fuse with your win card at mycos. again, you can always exit/re-enter start menu to see what your other options are

that said, ive started doing something on my own that i havent seen mentioned anywhere, and its making sure to use an item in battle if backpack is your next node, to prevent yourself from getting packrats from having a full inventory. im sure theres a strat where you can get a bunch of rats to fuse at mycos but it isnt worth it imo

that, and also try to have at least one item that can instantly kill/remove a card from leshy's board before you fight final boss leshy, like the hook, trapper knife, or scissors. ideally you want to kill his moleman so you can use your KO card before he pulls out prospector and wipes your board and things get hairy. there is a guaranteed backpack node before you fight leshy, you can actually exit and re-enter game to make sure you get the item you want if you dont feel bad about it lol (magickal bleach works against the moleman too but you have to unlock this)

getting your KO card is easier once you unlock the Blood deck (its the first you unlock i believe, after 1-2 challenges) cause it gives you a goat and moose! try to buff that moose at least once, maybe give the goat a good sigil like undying, fecundity or hoarder (hoarder can be a lifesaver if your deck is too big, its the sigil magpie has) or otherwise you can sacrifice the mole to the goat at an early sacrifice stone

#also if you ever try to do skullstorm check out @skull-storm-daily 's pinned post for some great tips #but for now just try to keep deck small and buff your OP cards! #mantis deck is another OP deck to start with but ive always stuck to my trusty goat and moose #i believe in you. have fun #ask #kaycee's mod

As a tarot student, I am fascinated by the interpretations made by fellow tarot enthusiasts in the Our Flag Means Death (OFMD) fandom, on which Major Arcana card best represents Izzy Hands. Popular fanmade decks such as The Cat Bandit Tarot by artist Jennie Planet see him as The Devil—a force that keeps the lovers apart—and Judgement—beating Ed down when he was already at his worst. Valid as they are, these interpretations see Izzy as a negative influence, but I like to offer an alternative take. 

I see Izzy’s energy and role in the canon (and eventually, in my personal life as the viewer) as the Hierophant. An energy often found uninspiring, but when used correctly, it can help people make their dreams come true. 

In her book The Holistic Tarot (2015, North Atlantic Books), tarot master Benebell Wen uses Tradition, Conventionalism, and Institutionalism as the keywords that explain the Hierophant card.

“The Hierophant is a holy man, an important figure in his society … People rely on him to be a channel between heaven and earth. In a reading, the card typically indicates a desire to follow conventions and norms, a traditionalist—one who holds traditional values,” she writes. 

The Hierophant is often seen as the card that calls for querents to be conservative. Instead of thinking outside the box, it expects them to open the manuals and follow the instructions. When discussing making our dreams come true, the Hierophant energy is often seen as an obstacle—curbing creativity and exploration in favour of traditions. 

We did see these traits displayed by Izzy in various scenes, such as in Episode 4 when he demanded Ed to come up with a defensive plan after they noticed a Spanish ship coming their way or when he threatened to blackmail Lucius for … you know what he did.

While these scenes might cement Izzy’s role in the story as the Bad Guy, his role is also a reminder of the importance of maintaining a structure—even on a pirate ship. Because this structure, no matter how dull it is, enables us to function and create the impact we want in our personal and professional lives.

The Hierophant energy

The Hierophant card is known for having a restrictive–perhaps even oppressive–energy. In my early days as a tarot student, I tended to roll my eyes whenever it showed up. It was not the kind of nuance I wanted as a young person. But eventually, I learned how the Hierophant energy could positively impact one’s life when used wisely. Instead of preventing progress, it can help with it. 

As someone who works in the tech startup community, I regularly meet people driven to succeed. Buzzwords such as “innovation” and “disruption” are being thrown around lightly; everybody wants to be the next big thing that changes the world. Big ideas, even the most unrealistic ones, are cherished and encouraged.

But people are being brought back to Earth rather quickly in this industry. There are even statistics to prove it: Up to 95 per cent of startups fail simply because they cannot find product-market fit, according to various sources. In layman’s terms, they create products and services that nobody needs. This is why startups are commonly advised to implement rigorous market research and product testing to prove that their ideas work; to have the discipline to do more than just talk.

On an individual level, the Hierophant energy is one I tap into to achieve my goals. To be productive, I need to run my days smoothly. This means clearing my housekeeping tasks before leaving home, logging off social media during work hours, and ensuring I eat my vegetables to stay healthy. They are boring AF, but they provide me with a structure to keep the machine well-oiled.

When I look back on my life, all the times I managed to achieve and create something good for myself (and hopefully others) are when I stopped daydreaming and started implementing the Hierophant energy into my daily life. While it is important to explore new ideas, all of them will be pointless without the structure that ensures it is being developed properly. 

Now, back to Izzy

One might see Izzy as a traditional pirate who is resistant to change. I mean, what the fuck is even a retirement? It does not exist in this line of work. 

This context places Izzy as a counter to Stede Bonnet’s “fresh, groundbreaking” ideas about piracy. It is easy to see Izzy and his beliefs as outdated and needing disruption. But we must remember that piracy is a dangerous business. While pirates generally entered the business with a ready-to-die mindset, a structure that allows the crew to be functional and prepared to handle risks should be appreciated instead of being seen as a threat. 

This is especially more relevant in a situation where a leader struggles to function properly. Ed is a smart and gifted captain, but his short attention span and mood swings have made it hard for him to function on some days and for the crew to maintain their trust in him. His wit may have allowed them to survive another day, but will it be sustainable without a system to ensure that? What happens when he is having his moment? At the very least, they would need a plan.

This is a calling for us to look into our own lives and see: In which area do we need a first mate to yell and remind us to focus?

So I decided to make a little CARDS-Welcome Home Crossover AU…

Disclaimer: This is fanmade content and not official or canon to the official Welcome Home project. I’m not working with Clown at all and, again, none of this is canon to Welcome Home. It’s just a silly little crossover.

I’ve got the premise of this AU below the cut bc it contains spoilers for the CARDS comic that you can read on WEBTOON. Some of the character profiles also have mild spoilers as well.

CARDS and its characters by @arty-e (I cannot stress this enough. These characters ARE NOT MY OCS, they’re Arty-E’s).

Welcome Home by @/partycoffin

Template by @_Dream_Cheese_ on Twitter (template here).

Inspirations behind this AU

@/c0rduroyqu33n’s Welcome Home OC Madeline has a really interesting backstory that inspired the general premise of “human character comes to Welcome Home puppet world and becomes a puppet” of this AU

The fanfic “Home Away from Home” by Witherby was another one. I would say that this is kind of like that fic, but in reverse.

Now to the story (again, spoilers ahead)

This AU picks up at the end of Chapter 19 of CARDS, where Alvis and Rubis end up falling into this huge pit. However, instead of landing in the ruins like they do in Chapter 21, they instead end up in Home, where they are transformed into puppets. Meanwhile, back in CARDS (this would now be occurring around chapter 20), Mahira and and Dylan go out to search for Alvis’s body as they believe he has died. They find the hole and decide to check there, but end up falling into the hole themselves, coming to Home and also being transformed into puppets. Now all four need to figure out how to get out so they can get back to their friends and families and also so Deck Wars don’t end poorly, but until they do, they can enjoy the colorful, cutesy world of Welcome Home and all it has to offer.

Anyways, yeah, that’s the premise. I’m not sure what direction this will go in because we don’t even have the full story for Welcome Home itself, but hopefully I’ll know soon.

Fanmade Adult Hornacle

Bio: Adult Hornacle wasn't always this glam. It was a drab little monster once. Now it knows it can be happy as its fam, because it's beautiful. Man the starboard, hoist the sails, and scrub the deck till it looks shiny! This adult celestial enjoys looking for deep sea treasure and adorning its body with it, making it stand out. In its travels, it has also collected a few unwanted visitors on its leg. Hornacle doesn't seem to mind though. It's always happy to add more members to its pirate crew.

i will literally never use my trickster candle i just sniff it sometimes

not pictured are my loona summer pckge and skz seasons greetings bc theyre boring to look at, my poster tubes (onew dice + circle, 4 key posters, 1 xh overload and the 2023 smcu shinee) and my stack of folded posters (3 key, 2 skz, and 3 loona) and the rest of my loona seasons greetings is off somewhere bc my dumbass threw away the box when i got it. also my pinboard and figures but ive posted my figures already and my pinboard is empty except for some dbd and ososan keychains and various tiny pins i have. theres also a bunch of other plushies but i dont really count them in this and i have 2 bts cupsleeves from cupsleeve events (idgaf abt bts but. i have them) also loona fabric poster i have hanging on my lights and my trickster fan. my trickster plushy sits on my desk next to super sucklet and my wife figures.

the cd holder has all the cds from these albums (so somewhere around 61 except some albums had multiple cds and one album is a cassette tape so it doesnt really go in there)

i flipped off my skz poster bc the top corner always wants to fall off the fucking wall and i haved to put it up with duct tape bc it kept falling down.

i would put up my other posters like the key ones but my parents wont let me so the small ones in my closet and on my bookshelf are all i really have. Maybe one day like 20 years from now if im still kicking
