#to be in tip-top shape

[jawsandbones]

okay, wait, I'm so interested in your "no player revivify spells" rule. Would you be willing to elaborate on your house ruling for that???

I would love to, thank you so much for asking!

It's 99% because of story reasons, 1% because I feel that deaths are fairly meaningless when they can be immediately undone.

In my homebrew world, Winyul, there are no gods but entities called Titans. They are the manifestations of wants, desires, hopes, memories, experiences, knowledge, and thoughts. Titans form around a community, be it a city, a mercenary band, even between lovers. The prime Titans are those who oversee the entirety of a region and all other Titans in that region are considered part of that prime Titan. [I have a bit more information on Titans in my little packets - link!]

The Titans are the arbiters of life and death on Winyul. There are no spells of resurrection that have ever worked, as no magic can find the threads of the person lost. Upon death, souls are weaved into their respective Titans, their pattern becoming a part of the Titan itself. To resurrect someone, their pattern must be ripped out of the Titan.

The Titan which holds the persons pattern, their soul, must be sought out and pleaded with, in the hopes that they might ravage their own weave. Resurrection has always been historically rare, invoked only in times of great need. Typically, those pleading on behalf of a resurrection will give up magical items to the Titan. That magical energy helps a Titan repair the damage being done by tearing out the soul. During the False Wisp crisis now, the Four of Four are the only ones the Titans have been resurrecting.

Resurrection also comes with its own risk. The more death one experiences, the tighter ones soul is stitched into the Titan. Multiple deaths and resurrections risks leaving behind threads that could not be undone. This means that, past a certain point, those being resurrected begin to forget things - as their memory, those threads, have been left behind in the Titan. It can work the other way as well, where some threads which don't belong come along during the resurrection. Die and be resurrected often enough, and eventually you're going to end up an entirely different person.

It's led to some amazing moments in campaign - from Adra, Ilsa, and Talee kneeling for hours in the snow over Loam's body begging for his resurrection, to the playful ribbing of having to haul Ilsa's corpse up a ladder which took eight hours to fully climb. The current death count in campaign is Ilsa leading with three deaths, Loam in second with two, Talee with one, and Adra still untouched by death (not for my lack of trying huhu).

Thank you again for asking! If you have any more questions, don't hesitate, love thinking and talking about Winyul. Cheers!

What rlly bothers me about Zhen is that the other characters tend to have some sort of pattern on the face, her colors alone look way too soft

Her design in the poster with maybe something between the eyes would've looked great!!

#kfp #kung fu panda #ITS THE BLOCKY DESIGN AND THE EYELINER AND THE EYEBROWS #IT GIVES IT SHAPE #plus the contrast! #seen a few ppl drawing them on top and it does help a lot #her fur light brown with the white eyes and the black tip of ears and cheeks... mwah

supernatural really does an insanely good job at making expressions of emotion out to be solitary, lonely experiences. i mean just look at any of the times cas says he loves someone: in frame, he is alone; in opposition to dean or a whole group of people he hopes to be needed by. he is, by the very nature of the narrative itself, ostracized for his desire. when dean says "i need you" or "i'm sorry" or "it's good to have you back" we zoom in on his face, so close you can see his every pore, every strand of hair; a close-up on the shock value of experiencing an emotion. expressing love or want or need is not a doorway to conversation or reciprocation in supernatural, it's a fault. and this objectification of desire reinforces the inescapability of the narrative. if life is desire, and desire is taboo, then everyone in supernatural died the moment they were born.

#GOD society if there was a destiel class at college i would ace the shit out of that #anyway. wow ok im habing Thoughts #omg film minor moment.. #im not a film minor but maybe i SHOULD be #desire #supernatural #destiel #deancas #sueprnatural meta #i am in TIP TOP SHAPE TODAY #we watched 11 episofes yesterday so . ideal moment woagh

Hello. Currently busy watching a bit of Puyo Puyo Puzzle Pop. Arle Episode is a treat.

It has more Schezo than expected and I'm here for it! The other plot / lore stuff too of course but I wanna see him the most (as I wait for the Schezo Episode to be released).

Anyways you should also look at Carby hop!

Very adorable

#Nimue's Whispers #Nimue's Beloved #My Dark Mage Loser Bf #Not feeling too good but I will get something done. Maybe a bit more (something Schezo related too... Probably) #(Nothing terrible! Just not in tip top shape is all!) #I feel like Sunday is turning into Schezo Sunday for me. No complaints it is just funny to me. #I only have so much time though gonna have a bit of a Miitopia run later with friends. #(Mainly because a strike is gonna be on tomorrow and I cannot go to uni... So I got a bit of time to spare) #f/o community #fictional other community #romantic f/o #schezo puyo puyo #puyo puyo puzzle pop #arle nadja #carbuncle #puyo puyo arle #puyo puyo carbuncle

#post's rambles #the first half will likely be up later today! #might be a few more days before the second part is in tip top shape

grrrr why did people ever stop wearing mid-renaissance clothes

#yes I am mad bc I wanna go to fetes galantes with a friend in a few years #which will mean having to make a baroque gown and I just think Baroque dresses are so ugly 😭 #give me back my beautiful renaissance shapes please!!! I am crying I am shaking etc #and by renaissance I do not mean whatever rigid monstrocities the british had going on during the tudor and elisabethan era #I mean my beautiful German/Dutch renaissance soft shapes #with just absolute madness in the sleeves and in the details #like at least rococo is a little fun bc panniers but baroque? I want to throw myself off a cliff. #'Early 16th century is when Central European fashion peaked and honestly we should've just kept that' remains the hill I will die on #like it's so fun and so stupid. you want a big silly hat? have a big silly hat! you want the poofiest sleeves to ever poof? go for it! #You want an ornamented fake bulge that is very dick shaped that has a little pocket in it for treats to give to the ladies #(top 10 flirting tips they don't tell you about! Works every time!!!)? Boy do I have the accessory for you! #but no we must have weird flowy shapes and then not even commit to that also lets all wear the worst hairstyle anyone has #ever conceived of. that's a good idea! #just completely lost literally what were people on about back then? A fucking disgrace I'm telling you!

thank you to anyone and everyone who has ever supported me or interacted with my works. you mean more to me than you will ever know. you are the reason why I continue on and why I feel confident enough to post my utter insanities. I am truly grateful and fortunate to have people who enjoyed something stupid that I made. even if you just read something I wrote and didn't interact, the fact that you took the time to read it makes me feel so happy. thank you.

I'm going to go talk to robot aki boyfriend now until I inevitability pass out

#sorry for being melancholy on main I'll be back to tip top shape soon #these next few months will be hard for me #they always are #but I will come out of it better and stronger #pls be patient with the meow meow #CURSE YOU JANUARY CURSE YOU WINTER CURSE YOU FEBRUARY and god forbid #guys I don't even wanna say the word #valen... valenti....... #don't even say it. #don't. #also I just remembered I'm on my period #so this is the reason why I am extra insane right now #I need to purchase an aki and eat it.

having a character you always think about is so silly sometimes i'm really out here like "damn i think i'm getting a cold...i wonder if rei ever got colds"
