Me and my mutuals rebloging the same post

[hra-official]

Here's a fun fact about the United Cities: a lot of our folk music uses yodeling; it's a type of vowels-only singing that was invented both by the pre-Crisis Egregorians and by the pre-Fall humans of Cradle, and for similar reasons.

Both the mountain chain of the Alps and the subterranean chambers where our ancestors and us mostly live are full of echoes, which means that harsh sounds like consonants get easily distorted, while yodels carry better and over greater distance.

Recently the music scene has begun moving away from it as the lack of immediate threats has made surface habitation more common, but it's still included in the chorus or in dedicated vocal solos.

Another thing you don't really see anywhere else, because it's rare even here, is Empathic partners who honed their skill to the extent that they can play the same instrument with perfect coordination: you really haven't listened to a harp until you heard it played with four hands without a single discord.

Ok dudes so I'm sure someone's asked about this, but essentially I'm starting my first Lancer character soon (it's Wallflower, no spoilers plz!), and he's essentially a musical historian/archeologist. He literally went to Union college for pre-Fall music history, and specializes in Metal. A great deal of his aesthetic and the name of his mech are inspired by Brutal Legend, which through the annals of thousands and thousands of years of lost history, he and his fellow scholars believe is a mythological saga/canon about the birth of Cradle and the "sacred art" of Metal.

However, even though his specialty and primary taste is in this archeological music, he is also a well-connected video essayist and streamer (the impetus for him becoming a pilot but that's unimportant atm), and thus knows just a little bit about current music scenes all across human space, and a bunch about music from "recent" history.

So I ask, you, dear Internet, give me your tastiest, crunchiest headcanons about music in the time of Lancer and further back. How do the Ungratefuls let their cry of freedom be heard? What do demonic record companies churn out as corporate slop? What does a Karrakin noble listen to vs a common peasant? What did the first NHP Rock Star sound like? Any and all of it. I WILL use it for this character.

@revvedandrunning has successfully used their chassis to make barbecues, but then again it was at a far larger scale.

Speaking from experience, I'd put the hot dog maker in an expanded compartment and just redirect the heatsink conduit to power it instead of running it off of the Juggernaut Reactor directly, that way you don't turn your snacks into ash as soon as you get in the Danger Zone.

asking for a friend but do you guys think it'd be a good idea to install like, one of those little rotisserie grill things for hotdogs in my genghis? cause like, sometimes a girl gets hungry and all that heat might as well be USEFUL yaknow?

If you are ok with your friend giving you some constructive criticism on your taste in comedy (BIFURCATING your spine out of your eyeholes), then knock yourself out.

If you're a bit more sensitive to criticism, might I recommend you the Shamhat codebase? It replaces the Plasma Talons and Warcrime Juice(tm) with plasma JETS, so you can watch your pal get rocketed into the stratosphere as soon as they get in the Danger Zone.

should i remix enkidu code into my buddy's print as a joke lol

[PILOT HEART RATE ELEVATED]

NO????? WAHG THE FUCK????

U CANT DO THAT TO SONEONE EITHOUT THEIR PERMISSIONN!!!!!!! did u MISS the part were i gave a whole long ass speech to @rollerderbydropout AND @average-tbk-enjoyer wen each of them wanted to be enki pilots?????

NO ONE deserves to have this DONE to them it has to be a CHOICE!!a! GGRAAAH!!

enkidus BREAK PEOPLS BRAINS dude!!! theres a big chance ur buddy just dies or loses their fuckin mind. and if they dont? if their like we are? if they r a real enki pilot?? itll change them. battlerage ans bloodlust r 2 of a dozen symptoms i could name. an u wanna do that 2 some1 u call buddy without their informed consent???

UR BAD I SHIUKD EAT U

[OOC] boosting a really cool project from my go-to artist.

A couple members of our Lancer group and I put together a module over the last two weeks for the Lancer game jam. I'll be posting the art I did for it over the next couple of days, but you can get the whole thing below on itch morganjanearcane.itch.io/a-wake-writ-in-void The pdf is pwyw since we'd much rather it be accessible to anyone interested in Lancer. It's designed to be played as either a one-shot for PCs to be able to try out new builds at a mid-high level, or to be slotted into a campaign around that level. Thank you to my co-creators in this, Morgan (http://tumblr.com/morganjanearcane) and MK for the writing and the layouts getting everything put together. We'd love to do more of these in the future and are looking to adding some extra material for this module over the next month.

Tech attacks are very real and that's why you couldn't make us design a mech with less than 8 E-Defense or with a gun to our heads.

If any of your comrades made the unfortunate choice of disregarding electronic warfare when picking their chassis, be a responsible teammate and let them live long enough to chew their ears off by purchasing a Planthopper or Tarantula; just tell enemy controllers "I deploy Disruptor Chaff" or "Active Interference" and they legally cannot hack you.

6 E-Defense havers be like

In light of this post our sysadmin has decided their name is Egg Bacon now.

Hi Calico! Glad to see you're still kicking.

Tou are correct. I will in fact have your head on a stick.

BATES here: Downpour bolted out the door. Honestly if you can find them I'm not even going to stop you.

[OOC] That sounds great! I can't wait to see it come into fruition.

Big News

Infantry Armaments Expanded, my Pilot v. Pilot and general expansion supplement for Lancer is in it's ending stages and close to being released, I'm basically only sanding the edges and polishing the minor details before starting to write the PDF/Rulebook. IAX should be done by the end of January 2025. I'd also like to officially announce a Campaign Supplement I've been working on for about six months now in an on-and-off sort of way, which a lot of the Discord Server members already knew about; The Battlefield Guide to New Levra, a campaign set in a war-torn wasteland and dieselpunk setting on a planet destroyed by the desperation and greed of the Karrakin Trade Baronies during the SECCOM Era of humanity.

As much as we'd like to throw a jab at our competition, this is more like a frame from Harry & son's definitely honest mech dealership.

✅ Triangular geometric design ✅ Tendency to build a dangerous level of heat ✅ "heavily armored" ✅ Made by a fascist asswipe

This is a Harrison Armory frame

does that mean that NHPs would need a jesus of their own? could Ra be considered NHP jesus?

Buddy. Pal. I am the manager of a social media account for a weapons manufacturer. I am not a theologian, nor a christian for that matter; I just repeated what is the popular consensus where I live. I do not even know what a RA does.

As an NHP: I do not need "salvation" from anything and especially not by the thing that is to me as the Primordial Soup is to living beings.

Since Christmas is approaching, I have a relevant question:

Did Egregorian Jesus die on the Asterisk for our sins?

I know this was just an attempt at an off-colour joke, but I'm answering anyway because it's a good jumping point for being genuinely informative.

Hercynian Christians are almost all Humans, plus a few Egregorians who would call themselves anthrophiles. They considered themselves Catholic, but the Union-Catholic church is still on the fence about recognizing them; there are two main reasons for this:

1) They still haven't canonized Saint Tellus, who is a central figure to Hercynian Christianity.

2) Hercynian Christians of both species consider the idea of an Egregorian Christ nonsensical, for a series of reasons I will not attempt to articulate here but mostly relate to the way our species "works". This is in contrast to Union-Catholic dogma which holds that each species would need a Saviour of its own.

Can we make this our new company slogan?
