hello, everyone. it’s been a while.

things happen. days go by. regardless of what we hope for the future, best laid plans remain just that, and people we hoped we could count on slink away like cowards into the background.

maybe this is a bad time for this. i honestly don’t know, because i haven’t spoken with jill in a long time.

i wish there was something more i could do. i wish that i could be physically present as some kind of comfort. i wish i that i’d heard back from people, wish that my calls and emails had ever been answered, even wish that maybe i’d gone to his doorstep and knocked his teeth out of his stupid fucking face myself.

it’s so, so frustrating to be powerless when people so awful seem to get away scott free, and the worst part is that, literally to this day, he’s STILL making her miserable every way he can, poking his head into her life and reminding her that no one can ever make him stop.

in these last two years, we’ve had three more people come forward who were affected by ren’s bullshit, and buttercup herself reach out personally.

ultimately, how frustrated i am can’t even compare to how she must feel.

some of my thoughts and feelings are very different than they used to be. i’m sure that over the last two years, ren’s been up to the same flavor of bullshit. i can’t help but wonder if there were people alienated, then, who are very different people now. two years feels like a blink to me, but it’s a long time for people who suffer.

some things, like how angry i am, are even stronger than they used to be.

where i am today is very different, but i haven’t forgotten. i haven’t gone anywhere. i know you. i know where you are. i don’t believe in a hell, but i do know that the world has a way of turning vipers on their own tails.

these are a lot of fancy words that, ultimately, mean very little. how i feel and what i think isn’t important in the scheme of things.

i probably will not be back here. i hope that my friend finds some peace in the quiet. eventually, even the biggest waves turn into tiny ripples, and, ultimately, fade into the backdrop.

be well. be strong. things will be alright.

It was not an inspiring view. Peottre Blackwater's disdain for the city was not misplaced. Zylig offered all the worst aspects of a lively port. Wharves and docks jutted haphazardly into the bay. Vessels of every description crowded them. Most were fat-hulled greasy whale-hunters, with a permanent reek of oil and butchery clinging to them. A few were merchanters from the Six Duchies. I saw one that looked Chalcedean and one that could have been Jamaillian. Moving amongst them were the small fishing boats that daily fed the bustling town, and even smaller craft that were hawking smoked fish, dried seaweed, and other provisions to the outward-bound vessels. Masts forested the skyline and the docked ships grew taller as we approached them.

Beyond them, I caught glimpses of warehouses, sailors' inns, and supply stores. Stone structures predominated over wood. Narrow streets, some little more than trails, meandered amongst the crowded little buildings. At one end of the bay where the water ran shallower and rocky, unfit for anchorage, little stone houses clustered by the water. Rowboats were pulled out above the tideline, and spread fish hung like laundry drying from poles. Smoking fires in trenches beneath the fish added flavor as they preserved the catch. I glimpsed a pack of children racing along the beach, shrieking raucously in some wild game.

The section of the town we were approaching seemed recently built. In contrast to the rest of the settlement, the streets were wide and straight. Timber supplemented the native stone, and most of the structures were taller. Some had windows of swirled glass in the upper stories. I recalled hearing that the Six Duchies dragons had visited this port city, bringing death and destruction to our enemies. The structures in this area were all of an age, the streets straight and well cobbled. It was strange to see this orderly section amongst the haphazard port town and I wondered what it had looked like before Verity-as-Dragon had paid a call here. Stranger still to think that the destruction of war could result in such rebuilt tidiness.

Above the harbor, the land rose in rocky hillsides. Dark evergreens hunched in sheltered areas. Cart tracks wound among the hillsides where sheep and goats grazed. Smoke wandered up through the tree cover from scarcely visible huts. Mountains and taller hills, crowned still with snow, loomed beyond them.

3. 💍 JEWELRY: What are considered luxury items in the world of your WIP?

Does a little dance.

In the world of Albea, luxury items are fairly varied. So let's break it down a bit:

Clothing: Spider-silk clothing. Spiders have been semi-domesticated in Albea in the same way we irl have done to silkworms. Their silk is gathered en-masse after the long, warm summers cause them to create giant communal webs to catch prey, then it is washed and spun and THEN it's very carefully woven into clothing. And the clothing made from this silk is very, very flexible and a bit waterproof.

As you can imagine, this is a very long and exact process, thus the resulting products cost a small fortune.

Jewelry: Gemstones and fossils. But not for the same reason as Earth.

Genstones on Earth are pricy because of a bunch of different reasons. On Albea, they're pricy because Albean mining operations are MUCH different from Earth to deal with how easy it is to set off the environment - which means no strip mining, no explosives, nothing majorly destructive. Thus, certain gemstones are a much more difficult find.

As for fossils, Albea has a very robust paleontology circle - it's fairly common to see a person wearing some fossilized shells or even a tooth placed in a bottle as a necklace.

And finally, food: skyren meat. Is that animal name permanent? No clue. Anyways.

There is a giant, heavily specialized kind of bird that I am (for now) calling skyrens. Now, these giant creatures can cause effectively a land-based whalefall - often falling in the middle of prairies and deserts, bringing food to the ecosystem for possibly years.

Wamashi, being carnivores, also like to participate in this. The issue is it's very difficult to find a dying skyren before they're already decaying and/or have been eaten by scavengers. So when they DO get the meat (and feathers! They're useful for many things) it's an absolute delicasy.

There was once a spirit called Jan’ahrem.

The living embodiment of the fair winds that brings new life to a stranded ship. A lone bluebird flung out to sea, holding on to hope that their wind would one day bring them home. A thief in the way all strong winds are- stealing away the trinkets she could lift, powered by the same curiosity that drove the sailors who prayed to her. She was, after all, made of their stories, their prayers, their hopes and dreams. The fair face and childish wonder that drives a sailor to the sea, and the fair face, satisfaction, and homesickness that drives a sailor home.

But over time, their prayers dwindled. Her statues torn down as false idols, her home sea dried, and her sailors' discoveries meant they need not rely on old superstition anymore. She was not upset by this, of course. Their curiosity had brought them to safe harbors, and she was content to fade away.

There is a spirit called Janna.

Her name was shortened over time by the few who still gave quiet prayers. But when the aspirations of Zaun set it sinking below the sea, those prayers became loud and desperate. With new strength she returned, a massive gale that held back the tide just long enough for the survivors of the initial floods to escape their drowning homes.

The living embodiment of the fresh air Zaun so desperately needs. A lone bluebird in a concrete jungle, tenacious survival in a world that wants it dead. Her devotees have had too much taken from them for her to take their offerings, burning curiosity becoming desperate innovation. Made of the stories, prayers, hopes and dreams of every desperate denizen begging her to bring them clean air. Every mother pleading with her to clear their children’s lungs. Nurturing and kind but painted with a clear anguish for what little she can do.

Janna knows, deep in her being, that she will never leave them again.

#my art #janna #janna lol #janna league of legends #janna redesign #long post #lol redesign #yes it was purposeful that she’s tity out #in the immortal words of TB Skyren:#‘she’d be a more intresting design if she was just #like #straight up naked’

@hogwartsmystory is a predator (final)

If you haven’t read the other parts of this callout, I encourage you to start here. As in both previous posts, the normal tags are not included in order to allow this to reach as many people as possible. Potential triggers are listed below, and the main content is hidden to keep sensitive individuals from being unintentionally exposed.

TW: Pedophilia, Abuse, Gaslighting, Sexual Assault, Self Harm, Suicide, NSFW Topics, Faked Illness, Faked Mental Illness, Faked Death, Victim Blaming

Originally, I intended to craft this final part to you, the reader, as an emotional appeal. To be wholly honest, there’s only so much evidence that can be utilized without either forcing Jill to relive unnecessary trauma or exposing deeply intimate or personal parts of her life. Until now, everything I’ve told you and everything I’ve shown you is what was enough to convince me when Jill first reached out to me. If you, the reader, don’t believe the factual information that’s been presented so far, then I don’t think that you will. If you, the reader, believe Jill and her story, then no further evidence is going to magically make her story more true.

However, I don’t have to. Instead, I can let the friends-- the family--that Ren created on his website speak for themselves, and show you with their own testimony just the kind of person he was. Jill wasn’t the only person that Ren hurt. Jill wasn’t even the only person Ren preyed on as a sexual predator. Many people on staff, and many people outside of it, knew Ren and grew to have what they thought was a close relationship with him. People regarded him as someone to look up to, to find comfort in, to aspire after, to lean on; people thought of him as a friend and a hero in his community.

On April 12, 2021, at 9:57 AM Greenwhich Mean Time, the current administrators of Advanced Scribes issued a statement addressing Ren’s actions and his faked death. An additional announcement was made the following day. While the announcements themselves and the replies (including moderator statements) are publicly available, I have saved a print-to-PDF versions on Google for you to browse at your leisure.

I intentionally waited until the initial panic and outrage died out a little to let the most important statements come to light. Included in the PDF are sentiments that I personally thought were the most important sentiments; edits have been made and pages have been deleted, so you can see the current state of the conversations by visiting them directly. You can find the first discussion at https://advanced-scribes.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=42100#p1454263 and the second discussion at https://advanced-scribes.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=42107#p1454361.

Before you continue reading, please look over the statements and replies. The words of former staff former friends say more than I can ever hope to about Ren and the kind of reality that he stood for. Additionally, Jill herself has added to the conversation (username Rakuen), so you can read a bit from her perspective by looking into these announcements. After you’ve taken a look, continue below and I will sum up my final thoughts on this predator and his legacy.

Advanced Scribes • Our Statement (PDF)

Advanced Scribes • Change (PDF)

The Act of Grooming, Part 3: Entrapment

One of the reasons that predators get away with their crimes for so long is because they trap their victims. When they gain access to and successfully lure in their prey, they then engage in entrapment behavior to separate victims from other people and build reliance. The reason why kids are so prone to predation is because of how vulnerable they are. Young people just want to belong. They just want to have community, security, and affection. When they can’t get those things in their lives, they seek it out and take it where they can get it even when the situation is obviously bad. Kids can’t be held accountable for being smart because they’re kids. Jill was vulnerable. She wanted belonging and support. She fell into Ren’s lures, and he trapped her. He used his affection as a tool to solicit sexual favors and pictures from her, but never shared his face with her. She was always chasing his love, and all the while he was simultaneously preying on other individuals in the community. For God’s sake, this man had a selfie thread where underage girls would send pictures of themselves publicly on the site for him to look at, and he even intentionally disabled the website’s COPPA features.

Before Jill, there was Buttercup. Buttercup was also an admin, and she was also 13 when she met Ren. While Ren was a minor during he and Buttercup’s relationship, his behavior with her was just as predatory and Buttercup attempted to warn Jill via PM before she ended her relationship with him.

The picture he sent Buttercup wasn’t even him.

The entire time that Ren was convincing Jill that Buttercup was evil, and jealous, and a spiteful, hateful person, he was manipulating her the same way he was manipulating Jill. Ren is a predator who knows what he’s doing; he always has. He draws in his victims and makes everyone hate them so that he’s the only person they have. He makes them so desperate for his approval that they let him screw them over time and time again, and for what? Just to see his face. Think about what you read. He didn’t just do this to Jill and Buttercup. He did this to every person he cheated with or got close enough to get a grip on. Even if he didn’t sexually exploit someone, he emotionally did. An entire community of people suffered through this over and over and over again. Read the statements again. If you only read the live version, read the PDF.

I also want you to bear in mind that everyone on staff was equally a victim as they were an enabler. It doesn’t erase their responsibility, but their roles in this story or more nuanced than “moderator bad, burn the witch!” Some of Ren’s supporters were as young or younger than Jill when they met him. The two people most notorious for standing at his side right now were both “rewarded” with a relationship with him in the fallout of his faked death.

At some point, this man looked at his behavior and not only decided that he didn’t need to take responsibility, but that his victims daring to try and claim some kind of ownership over their own story was a personal affront to him.

Ren is a monster of his own creation. He chose to be that monster again, and again, and again.

What makes his enablers equally to blame is when they became adults and made a conscious choice to ignore what was happening, which brings us to the next topic.

Finally... How Old Was Jill?

Despite everything I’ve said and shared so far, I still get this question in my inbox.

How old was Jill? Did she lie about her age? Is she free of guilt because she was a kid? Did he know how old she was? Was she legal in her country?

I gave you all everything I had. There were some things I just couldn’t confirm because there was no proof either way. However, all of that changed when the announcements were released. I now know exactly how old Jill was when they began dating, exactly how old she was when people knew about their relationship, and even that Ren was public with all of this information. I also know that staff knew everything, and chose to do nothing.

As you can see in the screenshots above of Buttercup’s message, it was sent on Jun 17, 2015. At that time, Jill was 14 years old. By Buttercup’s estimation, they had been dating for around a few months, which is how I was able to discern the previous exact age of 14 years old at the time they began dating.

However, Ren himself refutes that fact in a Valentine’s post for Jill. As pointed out in the “Our Statement” thread, the post that user amnesia. references includes very sexual and disgustingly graphic descriptions of Ren’s activity with her. It also says this:

As per the timestamp of this particular post (as seen below), Jill was 16 at the time. Ren, a man claiming to be twenty-five years old at the time, was proud to admit that he had been with Jill since she was 13.

You can view the full PDF of this post to see what else he said here, but please be warned that his descriptions are NSFW and absolutely disgusting.

Warm Fuzzies Post (PDF)

No adult should talk about a kid like that. In the statements, several staff members admit that they knew that the two were dating when she was 16, and that it grossed them out. But none of them did anything. To amnesia.’s credit, they claim they tried to pursue legal action but found no viable routes.

From the discussions and statements, we can discern five things:

1. Jill was 13 when she started dating Ren. 2. She did not lie about her age. 3. Ren did not lie about her age. 4. Ren knew how old she was. 5. Staff knew how old she was.

Jill’s feelings and her opinions on staff and their behavior are separate from my own. She does not share my beliefs here, and I need to make it very clear that what I’m saying next is entirely my own opinion.

To everyone who was staff at that time: shame on you. It’s one thing to be a victim yourself and to not understand how or when to stand up for what’s right, especially when you’re young; it’s another to become an adult and to have let something like this permeate your legacy and your community for all this time. From what I understand, none of you are completely innocent in this. Ren wasn’t secret, he was loud and proud and he didn’t give a shit what anyone thought. Everyone who was an adult then and is an adult now shares some responsibility for that. Those of you who mean your apologies, thank you, but those of you who are using this event as a stepping stone to make that website into your own personal playground know who you are. Stop. There’s an entire generation of kids between AS and CS who have lost years of their childhoods to this shit and the only right thing at this point would be to turn the site over to the police so that Ren can answer for his crimes the right way.

To everyone else: protect the people around you. People like Ren don’t think about how other people think or feel. They don’t care who gets hurt or who they trample under their feet. Look around at your community, and ask yourself if those who interact with you know that you are safe. Inevitably, someone is going to get hurt. Are you the kind of person that they can come to when it happens, or are you the kind of person who will turn your head away?

Be the person that everyone knows they can come to, because, eventually, someone’s going to need you.

GI Joe: Remixed, Other Special Mission Forces and Lesser Megaterror Groups

(be aware that we haven’t done as much work on some of these as I’d prefer, so they’re often quite barebones)

Other SMFs: ACTION FORCE (EU+Commonwealth): -Utilizes both codenames and costumed personas. -Unlike other SMFs, incorporates law enforcement and intelligence types as well as military. -Led by General Pax and Madame Europa. -Named after "Action Man", the codename of Alex Mann, Britain's one-man answer to Joe Colton's Adventure Team. -Battlecry is "They Shall Not Pass"/"On ne passe pas!"/"¡No pasarán!"/etc. -Includes Big Ben. One member is Kalistani and is a mole for SKAR PEOPLE'S LIBERATION ARMY SPECIAL MISSIONS FORCE (China): -Does not utilize codenames, but does use costumed personas. -The second largest SMF after GI Joe. -Commanded by General Peng (a version of the Colonel Peng character introduced in Larry Hama's GI Joe: Special Missions #14, and the subsequent issues of the "Chomo Lungma" arc) -Includes a version of Wong (the cowboy cosplayer who was a member of the Oktober Guard in the Sunbow cartoon) OKTOBER GUARD (Russia): -Does not uses costumed personas. Some personnel have code-names, but others do not. -Commanded by Colonel Brekhov (a version of the character who has been seen in multiple media). -Relatively small. -Battlecry is "Ну Погоди" ("Nu Pogodi!") which translates to "Just You Wait!" -Comprises the standard canonical team, minus Wong, with the addition of Pale Peony (the Russo-Japanese ninja from IDW's ARAH continuation) MU'AQQIBAT (Egypt and the Gulf States): -Uses equipment purchased from a variety of sources, including (somewhat ironically) MARS Industries, although the last is mostly second-hand via Darklonia (the small Central European principality ruled by Destro's cousin, who bears the hereditary title-name Darklon) -Rotates leadership, so each constituent nation gets a turn. AS YET UNNAMED ISRAELI SMF -Commanded by Ibraham (a version of the Moroccan-Israeli Mossad operative seen in Larry Hama's GI Joe: Special Missions #2) MONGOOSE (India): -Exists Lesser Megaterror groups: SKAR -Acronym for Soldiers of Kaos, Anarchy, and Ruin. -Operates mostly in Europe and West Asia. -Led by Iron Klaw, a masked man who is secretly Count Von Rani, world-famous diplomat, playboy, philanthropist, and ruler of Kalistan, a small Eurasian nation. -Officially, Nihilist Anarchists that wish to burn down the world order rather than replace it like Cobra, SKAR is actually a means to increase the power and influence of Kalistan in general and Count Von Rani in particular. -Personnel consist of maniacs who think Cobra isn't hardcore enough (such as the mad scientist codenamed Inferno), mercenaries (such as Destro's rival Rampage), lost souls who think they have nowhere else to go or believe they owe Iron Klaw a debt (such as the super-soldier Wreckage), or Kalistani nationalists pretending to be one of the former (such as Iron Klaw's right-hand woman Steel Raven) -Of the megaterror groups, probably the most inclined to traditional terrorist activities; bombings, skyjackings, etc. -Fighting strength a mix of plainclothed operatives, uniformed SKAR troopers, heavy combat robots called Zaps, and flying combat robots called Skyrenes. IRON Army -First word is an acronym for International Robotic Operations Network. -Operates globally, provides advanced technological support to other criminal and terrorist organizations; "the Microsoft/Apple of Global Crime". -Founded and led by General Blitz, a Nazi mad scientist and war criminal who spent decades experimenting with various forms of bioengineering before concluding that flesh was weak and the true ubermensch would be made of silicon and steel. -Radical Transhumanist Neo-Nazis. Concerned primarily with improving robotics technology, and obtaining the funds to do so; believe world domination will come after the robotic true ubermensch is created -Fighting strength comprised primarily of robotic IRON Stormtroopers Revanche Robotics -Operates several seemingly legit robotics companies as fronts. -Operates globally, provides mercenary support to other criminal and terrorist organizations. -Breakaway from IRON Army; less Nazism, more interested in making people better via cybernetics and brain-uploads than creating advanced robots. -Includes several former members of the now-shattered Arashikage Ninja Clan. -Fighting strength comprised primarily of knockoffs of Cobra BATS, and "Blue Ninjas", combat cyborgs with some degree of Arashikage training. Red Shadows -Operates primarily in Western Europe. -Originally founded in the '60s as a Soviet-backed Communist terror group ala the Red Army Faction, operating in Britain. Was taken over by the brilliant and charismatic Baron Ironblood, who turned it into a personality cult dedicated to making him ruler of the world. -By the '80s, thanks to Action Man, the Adventure Team, the Oktober Guard, and various conventional law enforcement and military organizations, was largely defunct, with Baron Ironblood imprisoned, and his top lieutenant, the Black Major, in hiding. -Owing to some kind of weird science, the Black Major is still youthful and in good health today, and was recruited by a Cobra, who convinced CC to rescue and recruit the Baron...who then schismed off a chunk of Cobra as a new Red Shadows. -Fighting strength comprised primarily of uniformed Red Shadow soldiers, assorted unique vehicles. Terror Gang -Operates solely in Central Europe, primarily Germany. -Is actually a purely profit-driven criminal organization pretending to be a megaterror group. -Utilize various vehicles and equipment purchased secondhand from actual megaterror groups. Broken Star Liberation Army -Operates solely in North America, primarily the United States. -Initially trained and funded by Cobra, both to increase general fear and to discredit the far-right, eventually snowballed and became a minor megaterror group in it's own right -Far-Right Libertarians; your classic "Sovereign Citizen" militia. -Fighting strength comprised primarily of classic militia fighters and stolen standard American military vehicles. (note: the BSLA has a far-left counterpart, that we haven't come up with a name for yet.)
