I've been seeing a lot of Goochy content on tumblr and that makes me really happy, so I wanted to share my collection of Goochys (Goochies?)!
The two in front are my second newest and oldest Goochys, the oldest is around 20 now. Since this picture I've gotten one or two more. Idk I just love Goochy a lot!! And as a kid my life goal was to have the biggest collection of them in the world and I don't think that's changed
Have an extra picture: close-up of the same oldest Goochy, and my most recent one not in the first pic

Back to talking about the Fantasy Fandom and the racism that tends to be part of it!
I genuinely think if Wyll were white he'd get way more attention and love. He'd have sparkle flower crown edits saying "My sweet cornball!!" "My boys got daddy issues!!". Also Warlock is a class beloved by many. And as someone who plays a warlock in bg3 having two of them fucking ROCKED, I always had spells at the ready. So really saying "buh! buh! two warlocks is just bad!" its really not, short rests and cantrips out the asshole really make it easy.
Anyway.
If Gale were black he would be fully ignored and people would, in masses, complain about how annoying he is, how useless he is, how he doesn't really fit in with the rest of the "way more interesting cast". How he's so unbearably straight because all he talks about is his ex.
Lemme keep on this though because if Shadowheart was a Black Person she would have been fucking Crucified for the way she talks about other races, other religions, and just in general the way you have to pull information out of her like pulling teeth. Also if she were a black woman she'd be reduced to "uncaring boss bitch who "dont need no man"" or "unbarable bitch who needs to be Killed"
Am I getting my point across enough?
Wyll was shafted by the game by having literally less content than the rest of the party. Wyll DOES have an interesting story. Wyll is also corny, he's funny, he's so sweet, and his conversations with Karlach are soooo great and yet it's all abandoned because he's generally viewed as "boring".
And by the way. You are allowed to like and dislike characters. But I see a lot of people side stepping the Fantasy Racism to say "but hes just boring thats why I dont like him". Like sure, if you gave Wyll an honest chance and still found him boring then that's your opinion and choice! HOWEVER!! We CANNOT ignore that he is being LEFT OUT of edits, of fan art, of character discussions. When I see posts that are the entire cast MINUS Wyll it tells me everything I need to know about you.
Also one last thing... I cannot imagine being Wyll's VA and seeing how many times you are being left out on purpose. How so few add your character to edits, or fan art. It has to be crushing to some extent, even if you expected it.

But as promised, in celebration for the CYL8 win, here is an Alfonse anatomy study rendered for your viewing pleasure! Just in time for valentines day.

Between commissions I finally managed to finish this OC set of parent characters! If the looks aren't enough to show you who their kid is, the background colors match them ^_^ but of course more details below!

I’m so confused on how dany could be considered racist, she’s like the only character raised alongside poc with poc in her council. she’s never shown any prejudice like ever
The entire conversation is built on hating Dany and this take started becoming popular from the show's portrayal of the slaves. In the books slavery isn't based on race, so there are slaves of all different ethnic backgrounds. In the show, D&D decided to portray the slaves as uniformly POC which led to people calling Dany a white savior. It really shows how people only cared about demonizing Dany because if they were truly upset at the optics of Dany being a white savior (which she isn't) then they would've been angry at D&D for making that change. Naturally, they weren't and they acted as though Dany, as a character, was racist because of a change the show writers made. So you're confused because their logic makes absolutely no sense.
