Here's a 5-person squad for hire we designed on stream today. Each one is based on an ancient currency or commodity money. I'm thinking of calling their group the Lucky Pennies. Quick blurbs on their personalities and skills below.

Nainai - Leader of the group. She's an old woman who was the groundskeeper for a large estate for many years and learned how to fight using her shovel. On her 70th birthday, she had a crisis and became desperate to die with as much money as possible and bribe her way to the afterlife. To this end, she quit her job as a groundskeeper to earn money as an adventurer, using the tactics she observed from bandits as a groundskeeper. This has had mixed results, but she's happy-go-lucky and never lets setbacks get her down for long. She can swap out the head of her shovel for a group of blunt metal parts resembling Knife Money to use it as a flail. She also keeps a flying bi xie jian (coin sword) as a last resort weapon or escape method.

Dancer - Second in command, and a voice of reason to Nainai's more reckless ideas. She was from a rich family that encouraged her to train in traditional arts, including dancing. However, she was more interested in explosives, and eventually was able to gather enough resources to depart from her family and set up a workshop. During an incident with her explosives workshop, she met Nainai, who helped her sort out the consequences. The workshop was destroyed during the incident, so Dancer asked to join Nainai's group. Dancer's the youngest in the group, being in her mid 20's, but due to her height, baby face, and how she clings to Nainai, most people assume she's younger than she actually is. She was the first person to join Nainai's group, and Nainai trusts her completely. She studied a lot of military history while she was still with her family, so the other members of the team respect her tactical capabilities.

Maze - Accountant. He was recruited by Nainai because she wasn't used to tracking cash for an adventuring party. Maze had a lot of experience with this, being in his early 40's and having a decade and a half of adventuring under his belt. When he started adventuring, he joined a group as a porter, and - because his other team members found it was a pain to balance their books - sort of fell into the role of their accountant. Since then, Maze adventured with and served as the accountant for many other groups before joining the Lucky Pennies. The badge on his chest, featuring a labyrinth design, is from a famous bank that recognized his accreditation as an accountant. His last group accused him of embezzlement. After it was exposed the leader was the one appropriating the funds, he quit the group and accepted Nainai's offer to join the Pennies. He has a severe hunch due to his poor posture when he was a porter and from poring over books. He fights using a large lever that can serve as a scale, and he uses his hunch as the fulcrum. If both Nainai and Dancer are out of commission, he's counted on to lead the team. He was recruited around the same time as Wedge joined, so they also get along.

Wedge - The muscle. A massive Ecuadorian woman in her 30's that Nainai recruited into the Pennies from a small fighting tournament. Her family are metalworkers and blacksmiths, a company called Fundacion Manolo. Wedge loved the forge, but she realized she didn't have the same talent for metalwork as her siblings. Her body, however, was much stronger than theirs, and so she decided to support her forge by travelling and advertising it as a prizefighter. The monstrous-looking maul she carries around is made out of a copper alloy. Whenever she beats up someone with copper possessions, she takes their metal, melts it down, and adds it to the mass. She's also counted on by the other members in the Lucky Pennies to do maintenance on their equipment, and Maze occasionally consults her to assess the purity of gold they find in their travels. Cupid also asks her to help repair his iron rods. She's a romantic and is secretly hoping she can meet a lover on her journey.

Cupid - Smooth-talker. Like Dancer and Wedge, he asked to join Nainai's group. Cupid's from a family of sorcerers that uses Kissi Pennies - iron rods twisted in a specific shape - as a magical focus. He had a good head for money and sorcery, and was able to gather a lot of rods - because of this, unlike most of his family which uses them as wands, he "fires" them like arrows from a bow. The iron rod snaps, and the intended effect flies in its place. While this is useful, his true talents are in his ability to relate to others and speaking skills. Nainai and the others count on him to find information about bounties and opportunities, and to barter with their employers and suppliers. He's the most recent person to join the Pennies. He elected to join the Pennies on the advice of one of his business partners. While he had his doubts, he soon realized he felt at home with them and decided to follow them faithfully. He particularly enjoys chatting with Nainai, whose optimism he finds infectious. He's finds reforging the arrows tedious since it requires a special ritual developed by his family, so he tries to conserve them as much as possible.

19th's Steam Next Fest Impressions Oct 2024 Edition - Day 1

It's here yet again. The time where I torture myself by playing too many demos and then yell into the void about what I felt playing them.

Random Access Mayhem

Action Roguelite about robots with a hotswap mechanic, jumping from enemy body to enemy body, each one having a vastly different playstyle.

First thing I noticed was that it had no dodge roll. So many games had been in the influence of souls and gungeon that it felt weird at first. But I grew to like it. 1) your movement, especially with certain bots, is enough that you don't need it and 2) points of guaranteed damage aren't as big a deal when you can swap

My complaints are one reasonable and one unreasonable:

Unreasonable: the trailer showed off a town that I wanted to explore, but it isn't in the demo.

Reasonable: The art style sometimes confuses me on elevation. Something will be wall that looks like a continuation of floor, and I'll wonder why I'm hitting an invisible field.

Puzzle Depot

A sokoban game where you play as a professional box pusher who volunteers themselves as a week long cryosleep test subject. It ends up lasting longer than a week and the world turns to shit. Now use those box pushing skills to survive the wastes.

I was surprised at how expansive this demo was. Instead of isolated rooms, the first level was a series of interconnected rooms in your facility. Further, you play through it in 3 different time periods, reusing the same layouts in different puzzles. There were a lot of optional puzzles and side objectives, and a lot of reason to replay.

My main complaint is that while you can reset a room, you can't do a single move undo. but considering that the game has a health system I understand the impetus. Plus Void Stranger also got away with that.

Dinocop

In a world where they jurassic park'd dinos, turns out they were intelligent enough that zoo-ing them was a bad look. So now it's an uneasy human-dinosaur society. You play as Dinocop, who was genetically engineered to be a cop because they needed a dinocop for image purposes but no one wanted to volunteer for ACAB reasons. And now you gotta solve a crime at the Dinosaur Rights Convention

Gameplay is exploration and time management. People go about to different places through the day and you fight info by being in the right place and right time. I wasn't able to fully test how in depth the system goes; after my first run, the game softlocked and I didn't want to bother.

It's a comedy game as expected but it's… a lot more bitter than expected and a bit too on the nose. Not as funny as Frog Detective, but has more going on mechanically. It has potential.

Neon Village

It's Luck Be A Landlord but match 3. Get coins by clearing similar colored blocks. Certain symbols synergize with each-other for more coins. Pay the bank increasing rent by the end of 12 turns.

Core gameplay is good enough, but it has some UI problems. Whenever you get rewards, instead of bringing it straight up for you to choose, the icon for it lingers to the side, and you have to manually click it. The problem is match-3 is inherently engaging enough that I kept forgetting those were there.

None Shall Intrude

Roguelike deckbuilder about being a dragon trying to conquer the nearby kingdom and kill the slayer. It has an interesting system where your attacks change the tiles on the grid, into things like lava points, boulders, tornadoes, and then using your cards on said points create different interactions. That being said, while I see the space for strategic depth, it didn't really "stand out" too much as yet another deckbuilder. Should be interesting for the type who can't get enough of those, though.

[combatukulele]

made an alt account in Pokemon go (back when I still had an old phone that could connect to Wi-Fi) so I could trade since I don't have any friends, and I started using it to kick my pokemon out of gyms when they've been sitting to long and I'm making bank but I'm afraid I'm gonna go to swap accounts one day and officer Jenny's gonna pop up and be like woah buddy where do you think you're going with all those coins

[reality-detective]

Thinking that there is going to be a BIG biblical scenario where they make out it's WW# but really they are activating Militaries then bombing all of these Satanic Luceriferian landmarks. Enacting GESARA funds and We The People rebuild.

THE EVENT. IT IS BIBLICAL.

WhipLash

What are some of the Very BIG Satanic Illuminati landmarks in the world. Q showed us them. Vatican, Buchinghan Palace, Whitehouse x 2 (USA, Germany), 3GD in China. Cern on the Swiss/French Border possible. What about Russia?

Another Post from WhipLash347

Big Pharma in Wuhan = Isreal

Isreal/Khazarians controls CCP.

The Media etc

34 Satanic Buildings and Dams will Fall.

Rods of God

WORLDWIDE over the coming days to Easter. Ending of Biblical Period.

Planes & Trains grounded

Lights/Power switched off

Changing over to Tesla Free energy

34 Satan buildings & dams bombed

Bitcoin Servers trued off

99.5% of Crypto gone China Coins.

WW3 Scare Event. Nuke Sirens

Water Event

Stock Market Crash

Global Martial Law

CASTLE ROCK -Scenario

Quantum Systems. Project Odin Switched on.

Nesara/Gesara/RV

Election Flipping via Military Courts

Military Tribunals/confessions/10 day movie

Revals

Inauguration

The ISRAELI MOSSAD control the WORLD's MEDIA out of the US.

Attached is Q1871 outlining this.

Project Odin as mentioned by Ron CodeMonkeyz is a POWERFUL Anti-Deplatforming Tool.

Project Odin is part of Quantum Starlink. Our new Quantum Systems are to be protected by Secret Space Programs out of the Cabal's reach.

Q2337 tells you Mossad Media Assets will be removed. Think people like Alex Jones, Anderson Cooper etc and also Mossad Satellites.

Israeli intelligence - stand down.

[TERM_3720x380-293476669283001]

Media assets will be removed.

This part of 2527 tells you that something powerful is going to knock out Mossad Media Satellites. This will blackout the media worldwide, Switch us over to the Quantum Systems. This is PROJECT ODIN. All in All give the reason to Activate the Military EBS.

Starlink [17] seems to of tactically placed itself at the right time.

If you look up the TURKSAT Rocket that launched from the USA in January you will see it was specifically for MILITARY COMMS to peoples TV's & RADIO's in AFRICA, MIDDLE EAST, EUROPE & CENTRAL ASIA.

THE EVENT has many facets too it.

The WorldWide Blackout to change over to TESLA Energy. Knocking out Media Satellites, QFS, Rods of God on Dams & 34 Buildings & much much more.

34 Buildings will be in the EVENT.

They are very significant.

Ie Whitehouse, Royal Castles, Buckingham Palace, Vatican, Getty Museum, Playboy Mansion and the like.

This will surely make the Stock Market collapse. It is all a show, 99.5% of Crypto's will be removed from existence with the event.

Swapping from Rothschilds Central Bank Notes to Rainbow Treasury Notes now backed by Precious Metals (Not Oil/Wars)

Tomorrow free money stops for backs. Bonds sell of to get off books. Seems all is lined up for scare event...stay safe.

Are we still comfy ?

Or are we scared ?

A little bit of both is normal.

Trump keeps his promises.

Have faith in the Lord Our God.

He will comfort you through the storm.

Who saw in January up to 10 countries at once have their power all turned off by the Space Force?

Just before that Israel had that happen for 30 mins too.

If they can turn 10 at once off all together. They can do the whole lot. Welcome to Tesla.

BLACKOUT NECESSARY.

Have a look at all the Global Military "Exercises" now being put in place.

Defender Europe 21 covering Europe & Africa.

Australia has one same time as Defender Europe. US just announced involvement.

Its all happening in front of you.

It's a GLOBAL MILITARY Operation

Transition to Gesara.

Now they just have to play out a fake WW3 scenario to ring sirens in every National Military Command Center.

This is to justify to the Whole Entire Planet many things that have been taking place already. The fact that Gesara Military Law has been in place. The Secret Military Tribunals, Confessions etc. The executions the lot. And like all militaries normally do they will help build new things.

- Benjamin Fulford

[tarot-by-e11e]

Hi. I'd love to join your newest game. Here are the following information:

1. Initials: IEKA

2. Go-to-Self-Empowering song: Karera (this was actually a hard question for me to answer since it took me time to think about the answer but this song is by a filipino girl group, BINI. Actually had 2 groups in mind but I went with the recent song I kept on listening atm)

3. Question: I believe my dream life looks like someone who lives in intentionality and with purpose. I believe my dream life would involve me being secure (I don't have to be unbelievably rich but stable enough to not worry about my expenses) and at peace with my decisions and the situation I am in. I would be with people who genuinely love and care for me, the same with me showing love to my community. Finally, I would be action-oriented and driven with fulfilling the purpose I have in this world.

Thank you!

Hi IEKA,

Thank you so much for participating in my new ask game~

Ooooh a BINI fan! Hi! Ahehehe~ That’s a really nice song~

I love that for you! A dream life doesn’t have to always be this big and glamourous ultra rich lifestyle. I hope and wish you achieve the stability you desire~

The cards I pulled for you regarding the Encouragement of your Future Self are:

Page of Wands, 2 of Coins, Wheel of Fortune

These are the things your Future Self wants to tell you:

“Being adventurous pays the bills~ Ahehehe, interpret it however way you desire…”

“If you’re gonna be delulu, be delusionally positive about the outcome of your hard work. People wanna pay you more bonuses because of your cheery personality.”

“Risks are opportunities for the brave and bold. If you want something, dream big about it.”

“You’ll get to the point in your life where we’re actually amazing at living a healthy and sustainable work-personal life balance.”

“Don’t feel low because of unexpected situations. Treat it like a challenge and reap the benefits and rewards in the end. Also, know your worth. If you know you’re being underpaid, ask for a raise. Good luck dealing with that annoying stingy boss though~”

“Being street smart will help us make our dream life a reality quicker and easier. Keywords to live by: adaptability and resourcefulness.”

“You don’t have to sacrifice love for money, or vice versa. Be with someone who elevates and improves your life, not drags you down and drowns you in debt.”

“Learn how to be financially literate as early as possible. Don’t rely on one income and get strategic and creative. Caving into conformity would make us drown in bills more than earn extra income.”

“Never sacrifice your health for overtime. Be abundantly compensated for your hard work. If not, find someone who knows your worth and will support you in your goals in life.”

“Search up FU Money and Infinite Banking. You’ll thank me later~”

“Cut off all deadweight in your life. You know who I’m talking about. Ever heard of Destiny Swap? Yup, it’s those sons of btcxhs.”

“What comes around goes around~ (BGM: Justin Timberlake: What Comes Around) They will suffer for doing you dirty~ Bwuahahahaha, though unfortunately you won’t be able to witness their downfall in person.”

“The scales are balancing soon~ be prepared to ride the unexpected waves of blessings and lessons. Learn to discern which is which. Also, don’t be a stubborn ass. Yup, I just have to say it. You know what needs to be done. You know who tricked you. You know who doesn’t deserve you? *feel my knowing glare towards you from the future* Do it.”

This is all I can read for you.

Do let me know how this resonates with you.

(This reading is for entertainment purposes only)

Ideas for a potential (and ideal for my tastes) Kirby Party game!!

This'll be long, obviously, so I'm leaving everything under the cut.

At its core, the game is a literal copy-and-paste of classic Mario Party. Everyone moves around the board, gathering more of a select item than their competitors to win, with minigames sprinkled throughout. No differences there. The difference comes from what the objects are, in this case.

On the topic of stars:

Here, stars are replaced with food items, given out by Kawasaki who replaces Toad. Whenever Kawasaki is moved, through any means, he prepares a new, unique food item.

When you get to Kawasaki, you can spend 20 point-stars (the Kirby equivalent of coins) for whatever he offers. Or you could spend 25 point-stars to get a different food selected at random.

Why does this matter? Because you can eat these food items for special bonuses, offering a nice helping of strategy to the established norm. Eating them means you lose a point, however, so it should be used very carefully to be effective.

Outside of those, at least one food is offered that has no stat effects and is just your bog standard.

On the topic of items:

Originally, I had planned for most of the items to come straight from Mario Party 2, but after looking more closely into the item system of Parties 5-7 (mainly 6 because it serves as another big influence on the project), I fell in love with the nuance and strategy that could be employed.

With that in mind, I was thinking about revamping the item system and number of items to better fall in line with this style. However, I'll still share the old item lineup, just for personal reference:

Wheelies act as mushrooms, letting you roll two dice blocks, while Rex Wheelies let you roll three.

Warp Stars act as, well, Warp Blocks, letting you swap places with a random player.

The Dimension Mirror allows you to move backward along a board when used. (And this will be more costly, so as not to be absolutely broken like the Reverse Mushroom was.)

The Vat-luck moves Kawasaki to a different space.

The Noddy Network calls Nightmare upon a player of your choosing.

The Enticing Cheese calls Daroach, while the Stinky Cheese prevents Daroach from stealing from you.

The Dinner Bell warps you straight to Kawasaki.

The Invisibility Stone lets you walk through alternate pathways.

The Nebula Chest steals a random item.

The Dueler's Sword... is self-explanatory.

On the topic of boards:

I conceptualized 12 main boards for the game. At the moment, they are:

Augmented Area (Technology-themed.)

Foody Feilds (Grassland, Food-centric theming.)

Corruption Cavern (Mining cave theme.)

Dusky Drawings (Spooky Mansion + Art theme)

Basalt Boulevard (Fire/Lava theme)

Royalty Ring (Castle theme)

Headstrong Honky-tonk (A casino in Merry Magoland.)

Galvanized Garden

Sanguine Sands (Western theme)

Mauve Mountain

Impeccable Iceberg

Nightmare's Nexus (Space Theme)

I may end up removing some of these, adding more, or changing a few of these ideas around.

On the topic of characters:

The roster includes:

Kirby

King Dedede

Meta Knight

Bandana Dee

Marx

Gooey

Adeleine

Ribbon

Magolor

Taranza

Susie

Elfilin

With the following making an appearance as non-playable characters:

Kawasaki (as the host.)

Nightmare (filling Bowser's role.)

Escargoon (who owns the bank.)

Daroach (filling in for Boo.)

Mr. Shine and Mr. Bright (who operate the day/night cycle.)

and other well-known enemies (who serve the other roles as needed.)

Each playable character will have a unique outfit for every board except for two. No one will have a unique outfit on Basalt Boulevard, and everyone will have a unique outfit on Nightmare's Nexus.

The character that does not have a unique outfit on the given board plays an integral role at the end if they lose, triggering a boss fight that acts as a final minigame (sort of similar to the boss minigames in Mario Party 9).

And that's everything I had! I hope you guys like my ideas!

Oh, and be sure to look out for the art I'll be making for this in the future. I've already made a few things for it, but they're all so old now that I feel like revamping them.

[arrow-gt-ace]

A Day At the Park

whoa what me actually writing a thing ?? this is a companion piece to this art I did a few days ago. i just had such a clear scenario in my head that this sorta just wrote itself asdfghk not much plot, just a bunch of scenes in the same setting strung together. _

“I would like to purchase a balloon, please.”

The poor vendor stared up at me, eyes wide. I had done my best to make myself seem smaller, crouching down and keeping my voice in a soft volume as I greeted him with a smile, but I suppose I was still rather intimidating from the small folk’s perspective. Despite the fact I had lowered myself to make conversation with the balloon seller easier, I still loomed far above the crowds. They moved like gentle waves at the beach, though they parted to allow myself space in a small radius. Whether this action was done out of respect or fear (or perhaps both) I cannot say for certain, but I could see out of the corner of my eye their gazes upon me as they passed.

For a moment the vendor of the cart was silent, before then asking in a somewhat trembling voice “Wh-what colour, sir?” “Hm…” I briefly mulled over my options, observing the colourful little floating bundle attached to the cart. Then, I pointed to my choice. “Pink, please. It’s such a lovely shade after all, almost like a flower.” The balloon seller took the lead of my chosen balloon off from the main bunch and I held out my hand with the money to him. “Sorry, these coins and bank notes are too small for me to separate them properly” I explained, “Please, take the amount you need.” He looked at me, then at my hand, then finally moved to take the fee. Then he held the balloon out and I carefully took the string between my forefinger and thumb. I thanked the man, and stood up. As I stood up, I deposited the remaining money into one of my pockets. I would need to determine a more suitable method of carrying it, given how minuscule and easy to lose track it was. Perhaps it would be better to swap its place with the money I had brought from home in my coin purse, though that would be done later. Seeing the little floating rose-colored toy I had just bought and the happy little park before me brought me great joy. Though I out-sized everything around me, the charm of the miniature amusement park spoke to my more carefree inclinations. And so I stayed in place for a moment, taking it in. I soon noticed that some of the small folk’s children had apparently began to think of me as part of the park itself. One girl had climbed up onto my shoe, shouting joyfully to her family as if she had triumphantly scaled a mountain. The child was then promptly ushered away by her concerned parents. A while later, another group and their young children had come. In much the same manner, the children broke away from their guardians and began to jump and run around at my feet. I chuckled and lowered myself towards them, setting my briefcase down beside myself. “Would it be all right if I let the children have a ride on my hand?” I asked the adults of their group. They agreed, and so I lowered my free hand to the young ones. They were quite excited, and shouted happily as I slowly raised my hand a responsible amount off the ground with the three of them on it. I then found myself surrounded by even more curious children and families. I gladly entertained them, allowing my hand to become a tunnel to hide in, or something to wrestle with. I raised and lowered my hand back and forth with them as cargo, and gently poked at them. Eventually, after some time, the small crowd that had gathered around me was satisfied and I sent off the last of them with a wave good-bye. Next, I picked my briefcase back up and decided to observe some of the more “grand” structures in the park. I slightly raised my heel to signal to the crowds to “please make way”, and when they did so, I stepped very carefully into the spot they had cleared for me, apologising to them for the inconvenience I had caused. I made my way through the crowd like this for a short bit, until I came up to what I had my sights set on.

An observation wheel, with a diameter that made it about as tall as I was, lazily rotated and gave the small folk onboard an opportunity to view the world at a level that must have been on par with my own. I stood by to watch it go through its rotation, and I believe I saw a few of the people inside its cabins wave at me as they reached its peak. “Hello, little people,” I said in return, smiling. Something else had caught my attention after a few moments. It was a roller coaster, speeding by on its tracks and completing a loop, much to the excitement of its passengers. I observed it for a few laps, quite mesmerized by the movement. I felt somewhat wistful at the fact that I wouldn’t be able to join the small folk on these rides, but observing was enough fun in its own right, given my own relatively unique perspective in this miniature world I found myself in. Then the ride came to a halt. It was mid-way through the loop this time, leaving its occupants in a rather uncomfortable position. I was very nearly convinced that this was just part of its routine somehow, but after a few minutes I felt the smallest of tugs at the leg of my trousers. When I looked down to see what had caused it, I saw someone who I assumed to be an operator of the ride, judging by her uniform. She seemed to be pleading with me, gesturing towards the roller coaster and perhaps saying something I couldn’t quite catch. It then became clear to me that the coaster stopping like that was unplanned, a malfunction of some sort apparently. Realising that I was capable of helping, I set down my briefcase and handed over my balloon to the ride operator to watch over while I dealt with it. I walked over to where the train had stopped and began to assess the situation. The most obvious solution to me at the time was to just take the entire train off the tracks. And so I began to do just that. The metal squeaked and popped as I started at one end of the train, twisting and pulling each cart until I felt each attachment point give. I spoke occasional reassurances to the passengers, apologising if I happened to jostle them a bit too much while I worked. As the train was gradually freed, I supported it with my unoccupied hand, and eventually the entirety of it came off the track. A celebration of cheers and clapping erupted from those onboard and on the ground as I righted the coaster train in my hands. I smiled down at them, and carefully placed the vehicle on the ground next to where the recently-arrived emergency response team was. I entrusted the rest to them, and after retrieving my items, I went on my way to enjoy the rest of the park.

I had spent the rest of the day simply people watching and enjoying the atmosphere around me from then on. With the rest of the tiny currency I had on me, I chose to sample the food offerings of the park stands. Though I would have liked to have had enough to fill up on, I wasn’t very fond of the idea of being a big greedy ruffian who takes everything from those smaller than himself and so I made do with just sampling.

The sun was beginning to set and I found that I had quite the enjoyable day. Though I may not have been able to partake in activities in the same way I would have back home, I enjoyed the time I spent nevertheless. And so, with my balloon in hand, I left the park.

Bored, so have an OC dump for Piánzi

He is, first and foremost, a little shit

And also a trans man

But he never really had a profound realization he was a boy, he just always was one

He wasn't really Baldurian, but he knew the underbelly locals

He mostly did solo transport work for different criminal networks, but never mixed jobs

They all knew that he did good work and didn't share secrets

He made it known that he didn't make solid alliances, and would work for any guild with coin

Never really had family, just himself. His closest friends were the city scavengers (rats and cats and the occasional raccoon)

Is not good at making decisions

He has a self-centered attitude, but if he cares for a person then no one will touch them

Not that he'd admit to that

Would've been an easy target for any of the spawn but the rats told him it was a bad idea

Would've slept with Halsin with no hesitation if he hadn't been seeing Wyll

Tried to subtly ask Lae'zel for stories about her people because he liked the passion with which she told them

Loved swapping gossip with Astarion about everyone and everything (in elvish of course)

Wanted to hate-fuck Wyll the moment they first spoke to each other

Snuggles with Karlach because she's soooo warm and he feels safe with her

Pretends not to listen to Gale but keeps asking questions anyways

Helps Shadowheart to braid her hair as long as she helps him with his

Never thought the 'lone wolf' thing fit him

Definitely has a secret criminal name (The Foxclaw Bandit) but it never caught on

Told it to Wyll when they got drunk together one night

Definitely didn't fall for Wyll when he jokingly called him by it later

Definitely didn't take several months of traveling with Wyll to admit to those feelings

Let's people see him as a criminal and petty thief because he doesn't know how to be seen as anything else

Didn't have a childhood because he purposely buried it

All he knows is an orphanage, a farm, and running as fast as he could

He doesn't really remember much else

He has scars on his face an neck but no memory of how they got there

He will not admit that he's a hopeless romantic that wants a night in shining armor to sweep him off his feet

He pretends not to care about kids but will do everything in his power to protect them

After the illithid events he thought he would go off on his own to reconnect with nature for a bit

Didn't realize Wyll would be tagging along

Helps teach Wyll about being a ranger without the aid of Warlock powers

He can't feel comfortable when people look at him and see a hero

Definitely read Robin Hood type books in the libraries all his life and liked to try to be that person

Got arrested multiple times trying to rob the rich

Known by other criminals for having an easy going personality and being willing to concede gold as long as they have a fun story to tell

Doesn't have a home anywhere in the city

When he needs to rest he goes outside of it

Has a secret tree fort hidden along the banks of the Chionthar about a mile outside of the city limits

The first night they arrived in Baldur's Gate he slipped away just to sit in his old home and realize just how lonely he was

He returns with his copy of Robin Hood and a bit of gold

He tries to lay in his own bedroll

Somehow he wakes up next to Wyll anyways

[drowsy-fantasy]

The number one thing that takes up enough space to require me to carry around a purse, bag, or backpack is...

I wear glasses. I wear fairly strong prescription lenses, and I don't like to have those transition lenses that change from clear to dark when you hit sunlight, because they can get some 'false positive' readings when I'm on a bus or in a car, or even inside if I'm by a window. They can take a while to go clear again. I've had them before, and I don't want them again. So I always keep a hard-shell case in my bag with my sunglasses, and I swap them out with my normal glasses whenever I go back inside again.

I don't tend to carry around a wallet these days unless I know I'm going to a place that only takes cash or will require coins - or if I'm going to the bank and will need my card to do the transactions. My keys and phone are usually enough, but the fact that I do require sunglasses means I'm carrying a bag, so why not fill it with stuff?

Other things you can find in my bag, ranging from common to only on special occasions:

Hair clip/ties, lip balm, gum/mints, hand sanitizer, moisturizer, backup lipstick, pressed powder compact, ballpoint pen, lighter, sunscreen, tablet, portable dedicated gaming device (Switch, 3DS, etc.). If I'm going to be out all day I'll also be packing a snack and a water bottle, a backup battery for my phone, and maybe my prescription skin medication if I'm having a bad day and know I'll need it later. Sometimes I toss in my Naloxone kit. Depending on the weather, either a broad-brimmed hat or fold-up umbrella is invited to the party.

Note: I do carry my health card with me at all times, but usually there's an inside pocket of any bag or purse where I put my keys, and I just put it in the same pocket.

@ people who carry bags everywhere what do you put in them what is there to bring other than chapstick, keys, phone and maybe a tampon why are you packing a suitcase to be outside for 5 hours

Types of Cryptocurrency Exchanges: Which is Right for Your Business?

The world of cryptocurrency exchange Development is booming, and let’s face it—it can be overwhelming. If you're exploring options for your business or even just curious about how these platforms work, you've come to the right place. In this guide, we'll break down the different types of cryptocurrency exchanges, their pros and cons, and which one might suit your needs best. Let’s dive in, shall we?

What Are Cryptocurrency Exchanges?

Before we get into the types, let’s clear the basics. Cryptocurrency exchanges are online platforms where users can buy, sell, and trade digital currencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and countless others. Think of them like the stock market, but for digital coins.

Why Should Businesses Care About Cryptocurrency Exchanges?

You might be wondering, “Why does my business need to care about crypto exchanges?” Well, accepting cryptocurrency payments or even venturing into trading can open doors to a global audience, faster transactions, and lower fees. Plus, being part of the crypto revolution? It’s like catching the internet boom in the ’90s—exciting and game-changing.

Types of Cryptocurrency Exchanges

Now, let’s get to the good stuff. Cryptocurrency exchanges come in different flavors, and choosing the right one depends on your goals. Here’s the breakdown:

1. Centralized Exchanges (CEXs)

What Are They?

Centralized exchanges are the most common type of crypto platform. These are run by companies that act as intermediaries for your transactions. Popular examples? Coinbase, Binance, and Kraken.

How Do They Work?

Think of them like banks—they store your funds and handle the trades for you. They’re user-friendly and offer a smooth experience for beginners.

Pros

Easy to Use: Perfect for newbies.

Liquidity: Tons of trading activity means your transactions are quick.

Support: Customer service is usually top-notch.

Cons

Centralized Control: Your funds are stored by the exchange, not you.

Hacks: Centralized platforms are prime targets for cyberattacks.

2. Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs)

What Are They?

Decentralized exchanges are the polar opposite of CEXs. Here, there’s no middleman; trades are peer-to-peer. Think platforms like Uniswap or PancakeSwap.

How Do They Work?

Using blockchain technology, DEXs let users trade directly from their wallets. It’s like swapping baseball cards with friends—no need for a shopkeeper.

Pros

No Middleman: You control your funds.

Privacy: No personal information is needed.

Global Access: No geographic restrictions.

Cons

Complex for Beginners: Not as user-friendly.

Lower Liquidity: Trading can be slower and pricier.

3. Hybrid Exchanges

What Are They?

As the name suggests, hybrid exchanges combine the best of both centralized and decentralized worlds. They aim to offer the user-friendliness of CEXs with the security and control of DEXs.

How Do They Work?

Hybrid exchanges use both off-chain (centralized) and on-chain (decentralized) mechanisms to manage trades.

Pros

Balance: You get a mix of security and ease of use.

Faster Transactions: Combines the speed of CEXs and the privacy of DEXs.

Cons

Still Evolving: A relatively new concept.

Limited Options: Few hybrid exchanges exist compared to CEXs or DEXs.

4. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Exchanges

What Are They?

P2P exchanges connect buyers and sellers directly, allowing them to negotiate trades without a middleman.

How Do They Work?

Think Craigslist, but for crypto. You post what you want to sell or buy, and someone reaches out. Platforms like Paxful or LocalBitcoins are popular examples.

Pros

Custom Deals: You can negotiate terms.

Local Options: Great for cash trades or region-specific needs.

Cons

Scams: Trust is a big issue.

Limited Liquidity: Trades can be slow.

5. Instant Exchange Platforms

What Are They?

Instant exchanges focus on speed and simplicity. They allow you to swap one cryptocurrency for another in seconds without signing up or creating an account. Examples include Changelly and ShapeShift.

How Do They Work?

You specify the coin you’re swapping and the one you want. The platform handles the exchange instantly.

Pros

Quick Trades: Perfect for when you're in a rush.

No Accounts: Stay anonymous.

Cons

Higher Fees: Convenience comes at a price.

No Advanced Features: Not ideal for serious traders.

Key Features to Consider When Choosing an Exchange

Now that we’ve covered the types, let’s discuss what makes an exchange stand out. Here are some key features to consider:

Security

Is the platform secure? Look for features like two-factor authentication (2FA), encryption, and cold storage of funds.

Fees

What’s the cost of trading? Some platforms charge flat fees, while others take a percentage.

User Experience

Is the platform easy to navigate? A confusing interface can make trading a nightmare, especially for beginners.

Liquidity

High liquidity means faster and more efficient trades. Look for platforms with a large user base.

Supported Currencies

Does the exchange support the cryptocurrencies you’re interested in? Not all platforms offer a wide range of options.

Which Exchange Is Right for Your Business?

Here’s the million-dollar question: which one should you choose? It all depends on your business goals:

If You’re a Beginner

Start with a centralized exchange like Coinbase. It’s user-friendly and offers excellent customer support.

If You Value Privacy

Go for a decentralized exchange like Uniswap. It gives you full control over your funds and personal data.

If You’re All About Speed

Instant exchanges are your best bet. Platforms like Changelly make quick trades a breeze.

If You Want Full Control

Peer-to-peer exchanges let you call the shots. Just be cautious of scams.

How to Stay Safe on Cryptocurrency Exchanges

The crypto world can be a bit like the Wild West, but with the right precautions, you can stay safe. Here are some tips:

Use Strong Passwords

Don’t make it easy for hackers. Use a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols.

Enable Two-Factor Authentication

Add an extra layer of security by enabling 2FA.

Research the Exchange

Not all platforms are created equal. Read reviews and ensure the exchange has a good track record.

Avoid Public Wi-Fi

Trading on public Wi-Fi? That’s like leaving your front door wide open. Stick to secure networks.

The Future of Cryptocurrency Exchanges

The crypto world is ever-changing, and exchanges are evolving along with it. We’re seeing new trends like decentralized finance (DeFi) and tokenized assets. As blockchain technology becomes more sophisticated, we can expect even more innovative exchanges to emerge.

Final Thoughts

Choosing the right cryptocurrency exchange development isn’t just about what’s trendy—it’s about what works for your business. Whether you’re just dipping your toes into the crypto waters or planning to dive in headfirst, there’s an exchange out there for you.

So, are you ready to find your perfect match?

This reminds me of an idea I had where a Renaissance banker gets waylaid by a dragon while making a delivery, and saves himself with some fast talking where he pitched the dragon on the merits of fractional reserve lending as a means of increasing their hoard - which ultimately leads to his banking house entering into an agreement with the dragon to use their lair as their main money vault in exchange for periodically sending some apprentices to the lair to sort through the hoard looking for particularly valuable old coins, polishing up corroded coins, using the dragon’s supernatural senses to assay their purity, and swapping clipped or sweated coins for freshly-milled and -minted new coins.

Picture this: Dragons using their caves to age cheese. Dragon Cheesemakers!!

The dragon coiled his enormous body, completely blocking the entrance of the tunnel that lead to the caves.

“No,” he snarled, smoke pluming from his nose.

The cheesemonger pinched the bridge of her own nose. “Look, I explained this to you at the start,” she tried once more. “I make cheese.”

“Yes,” the agreed, nodding his scaly head.

“Then I bring the cheese here.”

“Yes.”

“Then you store all the cheese in your cave, keeping it at the perfect temperature and humidity.”

“Yes.” He sounded particularly proud of this part.

“And then when the cheese has ripened,” she concluded. “I come to pick the cheese up again.”

A thunderous scowl clouded his maw. “No.”

“But that’s how it works!” she cried in exasperation. “I make the cheese, you store the cheese, I sell the cheese, I make more cheese!” She peered up at him. “You do realise I cannot bring you new cheese until I have sold this cheese.”

The dragon considered this for a moment. “Ah, but what if—” he began. “What if you go and make more cheese. And bring me the cheese. And I put it in my cave, with the rest of the hoard. And then I keep it there forever.”

“No,” she said flatly.

It was remarkable how much a dragon could look like it had just swallowed a lemon.

“You can’t keep cheese forever,” she insisted. “It will spoil and go bad!”

“You said it would get better and better!” the dragon roared indignantly. “And I take good care of them! With the air flow and the humidity and the temperature!”

“And that is great,” she said, trying to smile through her frustration. “But when a cheese is ripe, it’s ripe! Then you should not be kept anymore, it should be eaten.”

The dragon scraped it’s formidable claws against the stony ground and sulked.

“Look…” The cheese mongering business did not tend to require a lot of sweet-talking, but she was making an effort. “I’m sure the cheeses that aged in your cave are the best cheeses people have ever tasted. When they find out how delicious they are they will want us to make loads more. Maybe several caves’ worth!”

The reptilian eyes stared at her with disgruntled, reluctant interest. “Several caves?”

“If we’re lucky! And I could make so much cheese that I could bring you new cheese as soon as I pick up the aged cheese. Your cave would never even be empty!”

This seemed to strike a chord. The dragon lifted his head a little.

“And that would really be much better for the rest of your hoard,” she continued with fresh inspiration. “Because if you leave cheese too long, it might go bad and spoil the cheeses next to it too!”

A nervous ripple went through the beast’s scaly body, but he clearly was not convinced just yet. “But what sort of a hoard is it if I have to give it away,” he complained.

“Well! Cheese is not just any old hoard! It’s a developing creation! And you will have a hoard that is constantly developing too. Constantly changing, but, if we do this right, never shrinking.”

The dragon looked at her solemnly, wavering with uncertainty. Perhaps she shouldn’t hold it against the poor thing, it must be a difficult concept to wrap his head around.

“And I will tell you what,” she said encouragingly. “If business is good, I can start investing in some really good crumbly cheeses. You can keep those in your cave for five whole years!”

“That is quite a long time for humans, is it not?” he said, sounding a little more cheerful.

“Very long. Especially when it comes to cheese. Cheeses that have been aged that long are very expensive.”

In retrospect, she should perhaps have led with that. Gourmand or not, a dragon was still a dragon after all. A glittering, toothy grin appeared on her recalcitrant business partner’s shout and he moved just enough for her to move past him into the mountain.

“Tell me more about this expensive cheese that crumbles.”

She hid a smirk. “If you help me carry some of the current ones out, it would be my pleasure.”

The 2024 Alt Prophecy Nostradamus Christmas Swap

We do a Christmas swap every year, online, and the above is my gift to Gary Lesley for 2024.

I should explain:

There's no minimum on the value (price) of a gift, the lower the better, because it's the thought that counts. All gifts are meant to reflect in some way with the person receiving it. And Gary Lesley is a Bigfoot experiencer, having seen one as a teen, so the above does reflect on him, his life.

Our complete rules are as follows:

#1. There is a $10 limit and that should include shipping & handling.

#1a. There is no minimum.

#2. No books, as per "The Mike Rule."

#3. No cash, coupons or gift cards. Must be an actual gift.

#4. The gift must reflect the receiver, such as the Bag 'O Bigfoots to the real life Bigfoot experiencer.

This was my 2022 gift to Gary Lesley <link>

Originally I spotted these in a gumball machine in Dollar Tree, of all places! I thought I might buy a roll of quarters at the bank and go-house on the machine, call it a day, but then I thought to check online and... YES! SCORE! I found them! I found the exact same glow-in-the-dark gumball machine prizes online, a bag of 20, and for under $7. So I ordered them...

NOTE: Last I checked you can still find them but they weren't glow-in-the-dark. If that's a deal breaker, keep looking. There's lots of styles available, maybe there's a better one for you...

For 2023 I got this for Gary Lesley <link>

Gary LOVED it! He wept, I believe. I mean, it's saucer shaped -- UFO shaped, right? It's an illusion (delusion). Plus he ate the frog, he said it looked so good.

NOTE: This works with anything of roughly the same size. I've seen people use coins or dice for the illusion...

Guide: Everything You Should Know to Invest in Crypto Safely

Types of Cryptocurrency Wallets

Can you receive crypto from multiple senders at once?

Additionally, there are fake hardware wallets in circulation that will steal your private keys, so always be careful where you purchase hardware wallets from. Crypto wallets are at the very foundation of blockchain technology, allowing you to conveniently manage and secure your digital assets without the need for a centralized third party. From buying, selling, and holding crypto, to exploring decentralized apps (dApps), crypto wallets are the primary way that individuals interact with the blockchain. A custodial wallet is one whose private keys are held and controlled not by the user but by the wallet provider, usually a https://www.xcritical.com/ centralized crypto exchange. Using a custodial wallet means forfeiting ownership of your funds to a centralized custodian.

Cryptocurrency inheritance and crypto wallets

Both Bitmart and Crypto.com have promised to reimburse users who lost their funds. As decentralized currencies, crypto is not and will likely never become banned in the U.S. Currently, the sale and purchase of cryptocurrency is legal how do crypto wallets make money in all 50 states. That being said, the government can – and does – regulate how virtual currencies are taxed and traded. By the time you’re finished with this guide, you’ll be a crypto-safety pro.

Guide: Everything You Should Know to Invest in Crypto Safely

Using a VPN (Virtual Private Network) while accessing your crypto wallet Blockchain provides encryption for your online activities. It masks your location and protects you from potential prying eyes on public networks. On the flip side, this means that users must be in charge of their own security with regard to the storage of passwords and seed phrases.

Types of Cryptocurrency Wallets

This type of crypto wallet is the most user-friendly but also the least secure. If you plan on swapping crypto and/or interacting with decentralized finance applications frequently, a software wallet may be your best option. Within these types of wallets, desktop and mobile wallet applications offer the best security. Hardware wallets are like paper wallets in that they allow their owners to safely store their private keys offline. With a traditional bank, users receive bank accounts with account numbers.

Either it will generate you an account to start, or you will be able to generate a new account yourself. When you send cryptocurrency, your wallet uses the private key to sign the transaction, proving that you own the funds you want to send. This signature is then verified on the blockchain, and the transaction is processed.

It is essential to ensure that the public address is accurate, as transactions on most blockchains are irreversible. Bitcoin wallets and other crypto wallets are based on public-key cryptography. The essential elements of a wallet are a public key, a private key, and an address. When you want to send some of your digital assets (coins, tokens, NFTs, etc.), you digitally sign the data using ECDSA with your private key and encrypt it before it’s sent to the receiver.

Get your wallet’s public address (often displayed as a QR code) and give it to the sender, such as your personal crypto exchange account, to receive funds. When you first launch the wallet software, you’ll usually have the option to create a new wallet or import an existing one. If setting up a new wallet, follow the on-screen instructions to generate a new wallet address and private key. If you already have a wallet, select the import option and provide the necessary details, like the recovery phrase or private key. If you don’t own your private keys, you’re entrusting a third party with your assets. To address this problem, many web wallets now allow you to manage your keys completely or through shared control as multi-signature wallets.

In fact, most cryptocurrency owners use multiple wallets to ensure maximum security for storing their various cryptocurrencies. Now, to enhance security, you can opt for a cold wallet, which is like a digital vault. It’s offline, not connected to the internet, making it resilient to hackers. To safeguard your assets, you transfer them from your hot wallet to your cold wallet. In addition to hot and cold wallets, it’s essential to understand the difference between custodial and non-custodial wallets.

While non-custodial wallets (a.k.a. self-custody wallets) grant users full control over their private keys, centralized exchanges hold custody of users’ funds. This disparity in control has significant implications for security and access, as users rely on exchanges to safeguard their assets. Both crypto exchanges and crypto wallets play crucial roles in the world of cryptocurrencies. Exchanges enable users to buy, sell, and trade digital assets, while wallets provide a secure storage solution for managing these assets. As the name implies, desktop wallets are software applications that users download and run locally on their computers. Unlike some web-based versions, desktop wallets provide complete control over keys and funds.

It is called a wallet because it is used similarly to a wallet you put cash and cards in. Instead of holding these physical items, it stores the passkeys you use to sign for your cryptocurrency transactions and provides the interface that lets you access your crypto. It is very similar to the process of sending or receiving money through PayPal or any other gateway used today, but you use cryptocurrency instead. Examples of blockchain wallets include Electrum, Blockchain.info, Jaxx, Mycelium, Samurai, and Bitcoin paper wallet. There are many more based on the needs you have and the security you require. Generally, investors perceive hardware wallets as the proven instrument for safeguarding their digital assets.

In 2010, Bitcoin’s first real-world transaction took place when 10,000 BTC were exchanged for two pizzas, giving it its first true valuation. Trust Wallet lets you manage and interact with 10M+ crypto assets across 100+ blockchains. With Trust Wallet, you can confidently store, manage, and interact with your cryptocurrencies while enjoying built-in tools like token swaps and staking. The added layer of protection from the Trust Wallet Security Scanner ensures that you can make informed decisions about your transactions.

Popular hardware wallets that can store the keys to many different digital assets include Ledger and Trezor devices. Just like with hot wallets, if you only need to manage bitcoin, it is recommended to use a bitcoin-only device like a Passport or a Bitkey. This isolation from online networks enhances the security of the private keys and protects them from potential online threats, such as hacking or malware attacks.

If you use a less common operating system on your phone or laptop, this is an important feature to check before making your choice.

A bad actor may send you an email and bait you into downloading a file and running it on your device.

Centralized exchanges, such as Binance or Coinbase, operate as intermediaries, matching buyers and sellers while holding custody of users’ funds.

Cryptocurrency goes through probate like other assets before going to beneficiaries.

We want our readers to share their views and exchange ideas and facts in a safe space.

If you purchased a hardware wallet, you will need to follow the manufacturer’s instructions to set it up.

Many crypto wallets, typically software wallets, are designed for a single network. While they use an HD structure, allowing you to generate multiple accounts (each with its own blockchain address), they will all be separate accounts on the same network. Once the transaction is signed, it’s safe to transfer to an internet-connected device, which your hardware wallet will usually do via a USB cable.

As users gain experience using cryptocurrencies and seek greater control over their assets, transitioning to self-custody wallets becomes increasingly appealing. When you are starting off on your Web3 journey, one of the first steps you’ll take will be installing a crypto wallet. Wallets are an essential piece of software, enabling you to store and interact with your cryptocurrencies. In this technical tutorial, we will explore different types of crypto wallets and learn how to build our own.

With hot wallets, private keys are stored in the cloud for faster transfer. With cold wallets, private keys are stored in separate hardware that is not connected to the internet or the cloud, or they are stored on a paper document. Hot wallets are easy to access online 24/7 and can be accessed via a desktop or mobile device, but there is the risk of unrecoverable theft if hacked. With cold wallets, the method of the transaction helps in protecting the wallet from unauthorized access (hacking and other online vulnerabilities). Hardware wallets, also referred to as cold wallets, can offer completely offline storage for your keys. You can find hardware wallets similar to a USB device in terms of design.
