If you're the type to go out of your way to shit on someone's else's Tav or Durge's looks or say they shouldn't be with a particular companion because of how they look odd together-basically policing someone else's game and enjoyment of it in the fandom-kindly fuck off and feel free to block me too.

following Shovel's advice to get past the mirror, and the correct answer is also the one that is most true for Wyll..... how you don't have to pass a check to convince him to use the tadpoles' abilities, you just have to wait for the second dream and let him talk himself into it..... 'you seek to survive' comes before 'you seek power'... characters who are so devastatingly good but still hunger for power regardless because power is control and survival in a senseless chaotic existence..... Wyll's frustration with his father for compromising with the worst of the city, and his inability to follow in his father's footsteps, and yet! he follows in those footsteps all the same, in his own way. and so on and so forth. you understand

Minthara Baenre really banged Tav, proposed during aftercare, then proceeded to an assassination attempt all within one night. My lady here really speedrunning fuck marry kill precisely in that order and that's how you know she's a keeper.

The Salt and Light Anthology
Tumblr media
Hello everyone! It's time to break the news with an exciting announcement! In 2024 Keepers of the Gate hopes to release a Salt and Light anthology.
This means a compilation of works by (PBS voice) Viewers Like You. Proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to combat human trafficking.
The theme of the collection will be original fairy tales. The ideal tone of the fairy tales is a late 19th-century Art Noveau style such as that of Andersen, Wilde, Louisa May Alcott, or others that treat fairy tales in a slightly longer-form and more descriptive style than, say, Grimm's. (We are not interested in retellings, we want to hear your original stories! They can still have elements of inspiration from classic fairy tales, of course.) The tragic, beautiful, the strange... stories from the POV of a talking animal or an object... a fairy tale doesn't necessarily even have to have magic! Show us what you have come up with.
Submissions are due by March 1 2024. Please declare your intent to submit work by December 1 2023. (ask box is ok for this.) Stories previously published online or written prior to this time CAN be accepted. Ideal length is 5-12K. Not all submissions may be accepted. Please only submit if you are willing to work with us to edit your writing for the anthology.
Email submissions to [email protected] ! Please put "Fairy Tale" somewhere in the subject line.

Thinking about how in my early days within the community a VERY popular user repeatedly told me I'm "not a therian or alterhuman if you identify as human on any level" and I just wanna have words with them now

I think one of the defining traits of a fairy tale is deceptive simplicity. It is a simple story with a small number of characters and an elegantly shaped smooth narrative that only reveals its complex traits on analysis.
There are obviously exceptions like fairy tales placed within a larger narrative or with trailing multi-act forms that don't really connect to each other, but these still typically have the commonality that the character's traits are informed, or implicit from their actions. A fairy tale character lacks interiority. That is because they are a symbol and not a person. A psychological analysis of a fairy tale character can only be done from viewing the story as a whole because the format of a fairy tale eschews the modern style of empathetic psychological characterization.
The descriptive details of a fairy tale are usually there for embellishment and can be replaced with other details at whim, which is what makes the stories so easy to memorize and retell. (Unlike modern fantasy where a detail is considered misplaced if it is not some kind of Chekhov's Gun or developed worldbuilding.) The exact time and place are not relevant as long as its sufficiently removed to suspend disbelief, which is why as time goes on, the "time period in which it is acceptable to place a fairy tale" continues to advance. I dont know where I'm going with this. Just that "fantasy" and "fairy tale" are NOT the same genre

There are so few Gortash fans as it is that to me it is pointless to gate-keep him and to arrogantly claim one headcanon or another as being canon. Canon is what the players make it to be in a role-playing game, especially in things that are supposed to be left to interepretation.
I hope that the people who are insistant about him being into the Dragonborn Dark Urge and those who insist that he prefers a monstrous form have made me grow to despise the default Dark Urge or any Dragonborns being paired with him, period.

Man, MAN the Mahariel recruitment..
The raw emotion. The RANGE. Something about walking back to camp after a loss so devastating that it leaves you completely empty , going through the motions, talking to everyone, in a way saying your goodbyes before you even know what's to come next- to then speak with the warden, have him ask to recruit you and instead of whatever resistance he may have expected to find, you dont even glance at the keeper before saying yes.
Dalish origin my beloved.

I find it interesting that Sir Pentious got to skip waiting at the gate and wonder if it's because he's already been dead and prejudged. Or if he got to skip the gate because Sera wouldn't allow him in otherwise and divine intervention said "Fuck You" to her.

Cause this sure ain't the gate way~

Most people use the tadpoles to detect thoughts, but Minthara Baenre uses it to stream smut directly into Tav's brain the first moment they meet is so iconic of her.
