We’re back with our next round of prompts Third Army! This week (January 21st to January 27th) we want to talk all about “journeys”. Not just the journey to the Ice Court or the journey through the Fold, but our own journey as the Third Army! The billboards go up in LA and London on the 22nd, and that’s just one of the major milestones we have reached as a fandom.

Let’s take a moment to talk about the road so far, and celebrate all the journeys the Grishaverse offers - real and fantasy. To aid with that, we are going to give out prompts and boost content about our Grishaverse. Come join us, send us your fanfics, post your art, and make sure to use hashtag #Third Army so we can see each post!

Writing prompt: The Six of Crows duology ended, but we know that’s not the end of the Crows’ stories. Tell us the next adventures you imagine the Crows would go on!

Writing prompt: Let’s tell a sea-shanty inspired story, sailing off to the great unknown. Come up with a Pirate x Mermaid AU with your favorite ship!

Writing prompt: Write an essay on a niche Grishaverse topic that you are obsessed with but no one else seems to talk about.

Art prompt: Draw yourself as a Grisha on a journey to (or even through) the Fold!

Art Prompt: Though we got to see the Komedie Brute costumes onscreen in season two of Shadow and Bone, we didn’t get to quite see the Crows in their designated costumes. Draw the Crows, or even Alina and her companions, in your idea of the Komedie Brute costumes!

Photoshop challenge: There have been many a journey taken over the course of human history, from the Greek Odyssey to Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. There’s even more modern journeys like road trips and sightseeing. Photoshop the Grishaverse characters on one of these journeys, or any other journey you can think of!

Photoshop challenge: The Ice Court heist was dangerous and brilliant - but what other heists do you think the Crows could pull off? Photoshop them into other popular heists!

Mixed Media challenge: Nikolai becomes king at the end of season two of Shadow and Bone, but we all know that’s not where his story (or Zoya’s) ends. Let’s try to tell more of his story through whatever media you like (writing, video, photoshop, art).

Video edit prompt: Let’s compile all that we have done so far, and make a tribute to all the work we have been doing together during this campaign to renew the show and greenlight the spinoff. 

Question/Answer prompts: Though it feels like years have passed, it’s only been a few months since Shadow and Bone was officially canceled and the Six of Crows spinoff scrapped. In that time we have accomplished so much! What was the moment for you where you realized just how far we have reached? The billboard going up maybe, or how about reaching 195k on the petition? Or maybe it was early on, when we all scrambled together to get the campaign rolling?

Every week I want to ask people to share happy/hopeful stories about Grishaverse and the campaign. Let’s talk about the friends we’ve made, the kindness in the fandom, and any moments of hope we can share to keep our spirits strong!

Mary and Francis

When I look at you, I see forgiveness

I see the truth

You love me for who I am

Like the stars hold the moon

Right there where they belong

And I know I'm not alone...

You appear just like a dream to me

Just like Kaleidoscope colors that cover me,

All I need

Every breath that I breathe

Don't you know you're beautiful?

do you have any recommendations for crunchy games with good magic item / crafting systems? Or anything that has a between clouds or salvage union esque home base / transport design system?

Theme: Crafting/Journey Crunch

Hello friend, I did a little bit of digging and I've got a few games that hit one or the other of your requirements, and possibly a few that do both. I hope something here tickles your fancy!

SCRAPS, by Cezar Capacle.

Ayera is a hopeful world built among the ruins of a long lost ancient civilization. It is a place of harmony and symbiosis, in which unimaginable flora and fauna is to be found by anyone who leaves their settlements and travels unexplored paths. You are a Scrapper, an adventurer who devotes their life to exploring the land, finding special ingredients, bringing them back to their workshops, and crafting their wondrous personal and community projects.

Scraps is a feel-good game about sharing, about harmony with nature, about bewilderment and curiosity.

This game uses polyominoes and d6s to help design things that you’ll be crafting throughout play. The entire game loop revolves around crafting - you draft a plan, gather materials in the wilderness, and then come home and craft. The game is also non-violent: your obstacles don’t require combat to bypass. It is both solo and multi-player friendly, so if you want to play this game and don’t have a good group for it, lack of other players is not an obstacle. This was the winner of the Best Solarpunk DIY game in the Applied Hope: Solarpunk & Utopias Jam, and I can see why.

Mectors, by Chubby Crow Games.

In Mectors, players take on the role of a farmer, miner, fisher, carpenter, or some other worker in a labor intensive field. Mector Owners come from all kinds of backgrounds. Some own a Mector that’s been in their family for generations. Others came across theirs recently, through purchase or luck. And a rare few have managed to piece their own together using scraps from decommissioned Mectors, but this is even harder than it sounds. No matter how they got it, they now have a powerful tool with a long history.

This game has a few elements that might fall into what you’re looking for. First is the creation of your community. This is a fairly simple process in which you decide what kinds of guilds and political forces might affect your community, the names of specific NPCs who live there, and points of interest connected to your character playbooks. The second element is the use of Scrap, a resource that can be used to improve your community or improve your Mechs. There’s not really a lot of picklists or option sets - much of what you decide will either be determined by the pre-written setting or created wholesale by your crew.

Buried Treasures, by iotsov.

Buried Treasures takes place in a dangerous setting without modern-day tech. It contains two suggested settings: Whitewater, a town surrounded by danger, and “Let Me Out” a post-apocalypse.

At the core of this Renaissance-inspired TTRPG is its recipe system. Recipes are non-magical spells, and can be anything from combat maneuvers through invention schematics to actual cooking recipes. Players are slowly eased into creating and upgrading recipes, allowing them to design unique characters. Recipes also typically become the source of greatest power – in the unlikely event that the characters survive that far into the game.

I’m not a big fan of the Whitewater setting, and I’d recommend taking some time to write a bit of your own history and world instead, if you want something more similar to fantasy. The “Let Me Out” setting includes the idea that you have a bunker from which your characters have merged, with some questions you can answer as you create your colony. From there you will adventure into a landscape that references the SCP website for encounters.

What this game does have, however, is an interesting advancement system. All of your skills are based on “recipes”, which require research and various ingredients if you are to level up your skill. These skills can be magical or non-magical, and while they affect your character’s abilities, the in-game conceit is that these abilities are granted through crafted items. Some of the details of those items are left to the character’s imagination, but if you want a game with meticulous inventory and record-keeping required, you might want to check out Buried Treasures.

Cast Away, by Afterthought Committee.

Cast Away is the definitive tabletop survival RPG. Its Diminishing Dice mechanics reflect the ever-worsening condition of survivors in the aftermath of a disaster—without tracking Hit Points or burdensome injury tables. Death is permanent, therefore, we've created a Haunting system that keeps players engaged long after their characters pass away. Cast Away contains a modular set of guidelines and is easily adapted to any setting, environment, or circumstance. 

Survival games will either necessitate travel or a home base to keep yourself safe. Cast Away contains recommendations on how to facilitate role-play in hostile environments, and also makes passing reference to building shelters. If your characters are stranded, I can imagine much of the game will revolve around how they use their resources around them to stay alive. There’s very little to no mechanics for combat here - instead you have skills related to crafting, cooking, hiking, navigation and more.

The rules themselves are very simple, but I think including a pre-generated setting may help with the sensation of discovery and danger. One such setting might be Backwoods Cartography, by Backwoods Cartographer, which includes plenty of dangerous flora and fauna - although the NPC encounters might be best left for a different style of game.

Cosmos, by Neoth Games.

As a resident of the Belt you’ve seen exploitation, you’ve seen struggle, you’ve watched those around you be slowly ground into shells of their former selves. Now you’ve had enough. Its time for someone to do something.

Your crew has set out to make a difference, to be the fly striking back at the giant corporation that has seemingly set out to single-handedly ruin life in this sector of space. Struggle will not be easy, but any difference you can make counts for something.

But just remember, Oracle is watching.

Cosmos features all you need to play a game of resistance within the corporate controlled asteroid belt. Inside are all the rules, advancements, example journeys, locations, and adversaries.

In Cosmos, you’ll have a spaceship that carries you from place to place, and if you like the idea of improving a home base, this game has options for you. You can increase available space, as well as add medicine and weapons. You’ll have to maintain the hull if it sustains damage, and running out of fuel sounds like a possible problem as well. There’s also different size ships, which don’t just play into what’s available to your crew - it also shows you what kinds of craft you could end up fighting as well.

Cosmos also has Journey rules. Each Journey has an origin, a destination, linked encounters, difficulty levels, how stressful it may be, and example obstacles or events that may occur as you travel. As rebels and renegades, travel is fraught and dangerous, and it looks like the journey rules are meant to reflect that.

Railroad, Nebraska, 1952. Andreas Feininger. Gelatin silver print

I see the ferry-boats connect the cities, And the men and women cross from shore to shore.

I see the people of all ages, All races, all religions.

And I know that we are all on a journey, A journey together.

We are all moving towards something, And we are all connected by the journey.

From "Crossing Brooklyn Ferry", Walt Whitman.

I went to the Rue 21 near my place yesterday (why do I always forget that it's there?) After weeks without many new designs, Rue 21 is suddenly getting a lot of new apparel, which makes me wonder if Adult Swim is gearing up for season seven.

I haven't seen a lot of new merchandise at other stores, though, so maybe Rue 21 is just catching up. Starting with shorts!

One hoodie with a trippy design. The second hoodie looks like standard apparel with the logo at first...

...until you turn it over and see this vibrant image on the back!

Looks like a poster for a psychedelic or EDM music festival. I went to a festival a few years back where a booth sold sheets of acid tabs with Rick and Morty designs. They didn't have any acid (yet)--they were perforated sheets sold as "art." But everyone knows what happens to those little perforated tabs once they leave the booth!

I don't use acid, for the record. Way too many horror stories 😬

Anyway, when I visited the mall today, this rack greeted me at Charlotte Russe. None of the designs were new, though.

I was about to leave when I happened to see one new item: a Rick and Morty jersey!

I checked out the bootleg streetwear store but, as I predicted, didn't see anything new. I did see a guy with a kid (maybe a younger brother) point out one of the Rick and Morty designs on the wall. The kid said "Hoh hoh!"

Pickle Rick was waiting for me in Spencer's as always, but he was hidden on the bottom shelf this time.

Unfortunately, the Rick and Morty cube was having a bad day. Squished all the way at the bottom!

If you really love Pickle Rick, prove it with this shot glass!

Piercings! I keep looking for Rick and Morty chokers, bracelets and dangly earrings, thinking this is the day they'll finally have them, but nope. It's an untapped market! Adult Swim signs off on everything else, so why not jewelry?

I love this wallet. The colors were even more vibrant in person.

The "skate shop" in the mall (i.e. the corporate chain marketing itself as a counterculture label) has a Rick and Morty Members Only jacket. I had trouble getting pictures in the past, so today, I decided to try it on and show off the illustrations! Taking a photo of the back was way harder than I expected.

$70 is too much for one jacket, but I did feel cool while I was wearing it in the fitting rooms, lol. Right after I left the store, I saw a guy wearing a Rick and Morty shirt, so that was serendipitous.

Finally, I didn't expect much from Journeys because they hadn't stocked new merchandise in ages, but as I walked past the store, I thought "Is that...?" I went inside, and yep, it was:

A Rick and Morty backpack complete with a Pickle Rick pouch, maybe for your glasses? Or a phone charger? I guess it doesn't matter--Pickle Rick's just happy to be here.
