HEY WAIT!!!! THIS POST IS INACURATE! i was going to delete it because Clyde is a very new character in my mind and his lore is very unfinished (and i definitely made this too soon) but i don't really want to, so i'm going to keep this up but just know that most of this isn't acurate!!

Finally making a lore post (is that what I'm doing here? idk anymore) for Clyde (he's a redcoat):3

His name is Clyde Barrach but he took his mother's maiden name when he joined the war (which is Masako) He's Scottish and Japanese (half and half, his mother was Japanese, father was Scottish) He was 15 when he joined the war (in 1777) and died in 1803 at 41 (his birthday is December 18th 1762) His appearance! He has dark brown shoulder length hair, Green eyes, A concave button nose, Thin lips, Vitiligo, Almond-shaped eyes, a mole on the right side of his jawline, and he's around 5'4 little random facts! He's left-handed but used his right hand for years in hopes it would make him ambidextrous. he's bisexual but he's in LAYERS of denial. Carries his mother's book with him everywhere and reads her journal when he goes to sleep. LORE AND TRAUMA TIME!!!!!! His father (Gilbert Barrach) was a journalist and his mother (Haru Masako) was a Baker and part-time writer. Gilbert "saved" Haru from starvation and convinced her to marry him. Clyde was an only child, being primarily raised by his mother. His father being too busy with his work. In 1772 when Clyde was 10, His mother was pushed off a wagon at a parade and suffered a major head injury, rendering her almost completely lifeless, devoid of personality aside from writing, she would only speak verbally every few hours but could communicate quite well through written speech. she dedicated herself to her book and journal, only ever pushing herself to speak for her son. A few months before his 15th birthday when Clyde and His father were at the market buying firewood and flour they heard a commotion coming from the direction of the bakery, when they saw the bakery it was in flames. Clyde wanted to save his mother but his father physically held him back, he eventually freed himself and rushed into the fire, his mother died before he could reach her, in the fire he was burned on his left arm and thigh. After spending a week in the hospital Clyde and his father went to stay with his mother's sister, his father surprisingly handling Haru's death pretty well. Clyde suspecting that his father never even loved his mother runs away to join the war.

good GOD I'm finally done! and now for tags :3

okay! i've been wondering how harry gets back in touch with his family after the whole amnesia thing and how they all handle that. and how was harry's relationship with them before that, also? is there a sibling he gets along with the best? do any of them also have weird brain things going on (like the psychosis, talking to things, heck even pale exposure)? if the sister who works at the harbor knows titus, how does the reveal that she's related to harry go?

i may have more but that's a lot to start with for now. i might come back another time :3

Alrighty! Gonna put this under a cut to save people from my old-ass being cringy lol

First, I wanna introduce the OCs I’ve made for Harry’s family! (Ages as of events of the game, March ‘51)

Alain Du Bois, father, dead (died in ‘21), born January 27, ‘80 of previous century. Was absent most of the time, abusive when around

Margarette Du Bois (nee Barrach), 70, born August 2, ‘81 of previous century. Kind, loving mother.

Victoire ‘Victor’ Du Bois, 48, born July 17, ‘02. A bit distant, also struggles with alcohol but not to Harry’s extent (he won’t drink while working), lorry driver, emotionally shut off, rarely smiles, known for his deadpan humour and really bad puns. Has whatever the lorry driver version of Esprit du Corps is. Married and has 2 kids: 21 year old son, 18 year old daughter. Pale exposure up the wazzoo due to having to travel through it. He knows the pale driver, and Tommy Le Homme.

Madeline ‘Maddy’ Petrovski (nee Du Bois), 46, born June 1, ‘04. Very friendly like their mum, short and chubby, cosmetologist (works for the biggest theatre company in Revachol - which still doesn’t pay that well - definitely working class), has some of the same psychological things going on as Harry (the lists - she does the lists as well). Married and has 4 kids: 16 year old daughter, twin 13 year old sons, and an 8 year old daughter. Her husband has addiction issues and isn’t the greatest but he’s kind and loving regardless - life isn’t always what we expect it to be.

Harrier ‘Harry’ Du Bois, 44, born January 3, ‘07. We know about him.

Mairi Du Bois, 42, born December 20, ‘07. The only one to really escape the poverty of their childhood. Geology professor in Sur la Clef. She has the same weird empathetic skills Harry has. Lesbian, married to a fellow academic, no children.

Eloise ‘Elsie’ McTavish (nee Du Bois), 37, born February 2, ‘14. A bit standoffish, she is a nurse, and recently divorced. Has plenty of similar strange psychological traits similar to Harry’s and is distressed over it, tries to ignore it. Has four children: Twin 6 year old son and daughter, 3 year old daughter, and a year old daughter. Currently lives with their mum due to financial stress as her ex-husband is a deadbeat and can’t be found (he’s a former friend of Harry’s and Harry vows to beat the shit out of him if he ever sees him again).

Marcelline ‘Marcy’ Du Bois, 34, born January 4, ‘17. Exactly the same psychological stuff as Harry. Divorced because she had a few miscarriages (her ex-husband is a piece of shit - upper middle class weenie). Very outgoing, works in Martinaise surprisingly as a shipping container inspector (enemies to lovers type thing with Titus Hardie eventually) (also didn’t know her brother was the absolute mess of a detective doing the investigation into the Hanged Man). Has some issues with making relationships for obvious reasons. No children. Her favourite sibling is Harry. She is Harry’s favourite sibling (he got a baby sister for his 10th birthday). Because of Marcie’s proximity to the hole in the universe she also has some issues with pale exposure.

My headcanon for Harry getting back in touch with his family post-amnesia is a little wishful thinking on my behalf, I suppose.

So, as we know Harry has blanked before after some epic benders - purposefully. I figure it would only be a matter of time before he gets his memories back. 

In my postgame HC/AU/whatever you wanna call it I figure this happens roughly a month after the events in the game - and it happens fast and painfully - leaving Harry in a very very emotionally unstable place. Thankfully, Kim is there and Judit is also very understanding. Harry’s reaction to all of this suddenly happening is what gets Jean to finally believe Harry had amnesia. Throughout it all Harry still remains sober (this is again wishful thinking on my behalf due to my own history with alcoholism [grew up with it, know it’s damages]). 

Shortly after this is when the Kim is Revachol comic takes place (so mid- to late April). Kim encourages Harry to reach out to his family after learning about them. Harry is understandably terrified as the last 6 years have been strained due to his spiralling into further alcoholism and drug abuse after Dora left him. After university I HC that Harry dived into the Disco/party scene heavily, especially after meeting Dora, so alcohol and drugs have been an issue of his for a while before Dora left. I think that after he became a cop these addictions got worse as he struggled to cope with the realities of what he had to do as a cop and what he had to see. I imagine things were a bit tense after Harry met Dora, as I HC the rest of his family not really liking her all that much due to class differences (and I imagine her family didn’t like him either for the same reasons). Harry’s family does their best to make Dora feel welcome though and they get along well enough until finally she leaves and he goes off the deep end. His older brother quietly stops talking to him, his older sister tries her hardest to help but he doesn’t accept it. Mairi is on another isola so there’s not much she can do. But she makes sure to call him once a week and this doesn’t stop until the events of the game. Eloise is very vocal about her displeasure with what he’s doing but still tries to support him in small ways. Marcelline is heartbroken but refuses to give up on her brother. They get drunk together a few times over the years post-Dora/pre-game. Harry refuses to be around his mum when he’s drunk or high, but she is well aware of how rough he’s living. He builds her a gazebo one summer when he tries to sober up (I like to imagine him being good at carpentry). He gets Jean to help him.

Because family is important they all open their arms to him when he reaches out. Because all of them have some extent of Harry’s weird abilities they can tell he means it this time when he says he’s trying to be better, be the Harry they knew before he met Dora, before he let his life spiral. Harry slowly integrates into his families’ lives. Harry made sure to never be high or drunk around his nieces and nephews so he’s always been the fun uncle, and now they get to see him much more often. Harry cries so much when his oldest nephew introduces Harry to his grand-niece. The family also openly embraces Kim, Cuno and Cunoesse. And Rene in my AU. Harry’s sisters are excited to have a new brother-in-law and niblings. Victor quietly respects Kim for being able to help Harry pull through this time. He also teaches Cunoesse how to work on a lorry engine.

When Titus learns that the chubby babe Marcy is Harry’s sister he’s not all that surprised. Once he knows he can see the familiarities there. After the events of the game, I HC that Titus slows down on the partying and sleeping with younger women (the man is 39 after all). He kind of becomes a bit more reserved, especially after losing his best friend and the others. Marcy was close with Angus so she understands Titus’s pain. They grow close. Harry gets a bit put-off when he learns that they start dating. Kim is highly amused by Harry’s protective older brother attitude.

I likely have more to add but I’m losing steam lol

I do not understand why the Gaelic translation of Pippi is listed as 'Teenager/Young Adult'. This is a book aimed at maybe 7-10 year olds. Is it assumed that the Gaelic will be too difficult for those age groups, maybe? But we can't adjust everything for the needs of GME kids in Glasgow who don't really speak the language. Some things have to be allowed to be for native speakers. While some things in the book are in my opinion translated in a way that is unhelpful for children (for instance, using An-dà rather than Uill, even though An-dà was completely moribund in every dialect at the time of ethnography recording beginning in the 1930s - I have seen it written in 19th century sources, and I have heard it spoken naturally exactly once, in an ethnographic recording from the 1940s, where Aonghas Barrach ocationally uses it rather than Uill to punctuate a long traditional tale, although he uses Uill too. This is a kind of linguistic purism, while interesting to me and people like me, that is deeply unhelpful for children's books), it is overall not particularly difficult, although a parent might need to explain a few words here and there. You can't give 15year olds Pippi and expect them to enjoy it, brilliant and imo hilarious as the book is, it's simply not concerned with the lives of teens.

Ole Henrik Laub (Dec. 3, 1937 - 2019) was a Danish writer - one of the few who used the science fiction mode in the 1970s. I was always a bit confused by his work, because a lot of it was clearly realist, so he didn’t conform to the genre ghetto’s limitations....

Laub ended up writing almost 70 books - novels, short stories and plays - in his life, turning primarily to historical fiction in recent years. He also found time to write crime novels under psudonym, and even invented a fictional Danish-German artist alter ego - Henry Barrach - for his paintings!

Back to life Challenge - Aideen Barrach 

I was going for a mix between Merrida and Anastasia.

What was the Forgotton Hollow before it was Forgotton?

It was a small village.  Once upon a time, Vlad’s house wasn’t the biggest.  Long before he and the other vampires came to live in these dark woods, there was a small Noble family that was going to colonize the Hollow and turn it into a thriving city.

But the villagers soon found out that one of the Noble daughters was a spellcaster, and out of fear of the dark ages, they burned the entire castle down and killed everyone inside.

Centuries later, all that remains are the burnt stones that show the shell of a once proud castle and a Wishing Well out back.

Aideen Barrach’s spirit has become restless as vampires move into their neighborhood and upset the balance of life and death.  She’s returned from her grave to her old home to see if there’s some way the old wishing well can help her return to life.

(Well, that was the intended storyline.  I saved Aideen and both versions of her castle to the gallery in case I need to restart this and make it longer somehow)

After making quick friends with Caleb, there wasn’t much to do in her old home anymore.  A few books lay forgotton under the snow, a single servant’s bed has survived on the first floor and all of her old memories were falling like the snowflakes around her.  If it weren’t for the “internal fire” inside her from burning to death, she might freeze and die all over again.  

Trying her first wish for life at the wishing well, it lifts her into the air and gives her false hope before returning her to her ghostly form and sending her sulking into the ruins.

Lost at what to do in this new life, she returns to the Realm of Magic for some semblance of belonging.  Centuries ago, she had been burned for being a Spellcaster but the age was different now and the academy was thriving with new students in odd clothing.  Morgyn Ember quickly became a close friend, spending the night looking up at the stars and giving Aideen a small security that no matter how much the world has changed around her - the stars stay the same.

It gives her the confidence that she needs to return to the Wishing Well.  And... her wish is already granted?  Aideen’s spectral form turned solid and she stared at her own hands in amazement as the snow fell onto them and melted instead of passing through.

 But her return to life may have happened too soon, she was completely unprepared still and now standing in the freezing, dark snow of a now unfamiliar community.  She needs to move and find a real home with walls and warmth.  Fast.

And then I logged out because I really wasn’t expecting the wish to work on only the second try.  It took literally days for a previous sim.

Silent Princess: real world counterparts

Borage (Borago officinalis)

Etymology: while the origins of the genus name are unclear, ‘borage’ can be considered a bastardization of ‘corago’, translating to courage (Portugese) or “to act on/from the heart” (Latin). Alternatively, the Celtic name for it - barrach - means ‘man of courage’.

Symbolises: Courage, strength of character. The flower was also used in magic to ensure the peace and tranquility of a place and ward off evil.

Bearded Iris (Iris germanica)

Etymology: The name comes from the Greek word for rainbow, and with that, the Goddess of the rainbow, Iris. She could travel between the material and spirit realm, and would relay messages from Zeus and Hera to earth. Symbolises: Wisdom, nobility, faith, valor. Because of the flower's namesake, it also symbolises (divine) messages.

White Lily (Lilium candidum)

Etymology: The name for the lily genus, Lilium, was derived from the Greek term ‘leirion’, which in turn traces back many millenia to one of the first words for flower. Symbolises: Purity, hope, rebirth, renewal, passion and drive, royalty/regal bearing.

Dalmatian Bellflower (Campanula Muralis)

Etymology: The name of the genus, Campanula, is Latin for bell. This name naturally comes from the bell-like shape of the flower. Symbolises: Gratitude, humility, everlasting love.

Now take little bit of each... - the sepals and petals of the borage flower - the dual petal color of the iris - the petal curl and stamens/pistils of the lily - the general shape of the bellflower

et voilà

NATGEO Herb Studies: Borage

🌱Healing Properties🌱

Herbalists have used borage to treat everything from colic, cramps, and diarrhea to asthma and bronchitis, to cardiovascular and urinary disorders. 

Naturopathic healers use the herb for regulating hormones and metabolism, and for remedying symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes.

In Iran, the plant is made into a tea for treating colds, flu, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammation of the kidneys. The tea is also believed to bring more oxygen to the heart, which makes it a healthy choice for those suffering from heart conditions.

🌱History and Lore🌱

The name borage may come from the Celtic term barrach, which means “man of courage.”

John Gerard, a 16th-century botanist, says Roman naturalist Pliny called the herb Euphrosinum because it “maketh a man merry and joyfull.” Pliny also claimed that borage was the “nepenthe” mentioned in Homer’s Odyssey, which brought total forgetfulness.

In the early 17th century, English philosopher and scientist Francis Bacon wrote that borage “hath an excellent spirit to repress fuliginous vapour of dusky melancholie.”

Nicholas Culpeper, a noted 17th-century English botanist, commented that the herb was beneficial for treating putrid fevers, venomous snakebite, jaundice, consumption, sore throat, and rheumatism.

🌱In the Garden🌱

Borage has a special quality that makes it a desirable addition to the vegetable garden -- it is an ideal companion plant for promoting, protecting, or “nursing” legumes, squash, spinach, brassicas, and strawberries.

When planted beside tomatoes, borage confuses the exploratory search of the mother moths of the destructive tomato hornworm (Manduca quinquemaculata), looking for a spot to lay their eggs.

Reports that borage also improves the taste and growth of tomatoes have not been verified.
